An ezine can draw in a lot of internet traffic and hence it is a good option for an online business. There are several things that you will need to consider before you can publish your ezine and one of the most important points is the formatting. If your content is not formatted properly then you might not see return of visitors to your website. So, here are some formatting guidelines that will ensure that your ezine looks good and reads well too!
1. Using a Text Editor: A text editor is a program that will help you in creating text files. This program can be downloaded from the internet and is used by ezine owners, website editors and blog owners for creating a text file. Of course, you can always use Notepad in Windows for the same purpose. If you are working on Linux or if your notepad is not working or if you are looking for a different text editor then you can download the same from http://www.download.com or http://www.sourceforge.net.
2. Hard Returns: You need to use hard returns for ending lines at 65 characters. It is always better to use the ENTER key rather than use the option of word wrap.
3. Space for indentation: You can use space for indentation and refrain from using the TAB Key.
4. All Caps: You can use a sentence format or even Capitalize each word but refrain from using all caps.
5. Fonts: Try to use fixed width or monospaced fonts as much as possible as opposed to proportional fonts.
