Is it enough to write the story and publish it? It depends: do you want feedback? Do you want the story to be easily readable and usable by online readers? Do you want a serious, professional short story blog? Then you need to know some fundamental aspects of blogging , which also apply to a blog made up of stories: optimization for search engines, the layout and length of the text, the frequency with which to publish, the pages to create. SEO aspect of the stories How to optimize a blog story for Google ? The main problem with online fiction is the difficulty of finding a main topic . While an article is born from a specific topic, a story is born from a plot.
When I published my story " Cosmic Simultaneity ", on the Special Data occasion of the 110th anniversary of the birth of Futurism, I wrote a two-sentence title: "Cosmic Simultaneity - A Futurist Story" (the reader of the blog knows that he will read a story and which narrative genre) and the subtitle “February 1909 – February 2019: 110 years of futurism” (and now you also know why I wanted to publish that story). The title tag of the page , however, states: “Futurist tale: Cosmic Simultaneity – 110 years of futurism”. The title is fundamental, because it is the title that is read on the Google results page. In that case I wanted to immediately tell the reader that he would be reading a futurist story. And by searching with that keyword, my story is in 2nd place (easy, in my case, because it's not an overused keyword).
The same practice can also be used in other stories. Have you written a story about bullying at school? Well, in the title tag I would write “Story about bullying – Title of the story”. In this case I would also write a preface to the story, to better theme the page. Text formatting I never tire of repeating that reading on paper is different from reading on the web . Even if we are used to reading a story about a book, publishing it on the web we must use the same tricks used for posts: short paragraphs (at least as much as possible) and well separated from each other . Italics allowed, bold not (can you find any in fiction? I've never found them). If the story is divided into chapters, use heading 2 (which corresponds to the h2 tag) for the titles.
