As a reporter, it’s very important that you know how to create news articles that are not only informative but impacting as well. This is to make sure that you’ll give your audience great reading experience.

Here’s how you can amplify your news article writing:

1. Learn from the experts. Make it a habit to read newspapers or news websites on a daily basis. Doing this will help you determine how exactly news articles are written and what elements can make them really attention-grabbing. If possible, solicit advice and trade secrets from veteran reporters. These should help you succeed in this field in no time.

2. Choose your topics. Write something that is newsworthy. Write about the latest news in the international and national arena. You can also write about police reports, entertainment, and sports depending on your areas of expertise and areas of interest.

3. Use catchy headlines. Keep in mind that your readers will see other stories on the same page of newspaper were your articles will be posted. To ensure that your articles will not be outshined by other stories, you must use attention-grabbing headline that will tell your readers right away what your story is all about and how it can directly affect them.

4. Use the inverted pyramid technique. This is highly recommended for news articles because the audience you’re serving are pressed for time. As they can possibly close your articles any minute, it’s important that you give them the juiciest information upfront so you can still educate them even if they close your articles too soon. Inverted pyramid technique can also help you in promoting further reading.
