What do novices do from the media?

With the development of the Internet, self-media has become one of the hottest industries today, and the threshold for self-media is also very low. A computer is enough, anyone can do it.

However, it is still difficult to get a share of it and realize considerable wealth income.

Many novices have not found a way and have no excellent technology, which leads to standing still.

There are also some white people who are deceived by unscrupulous institutions, paying for accounts, spending money to increase their powder, and so on.

It is free to register any self-media account. If you need to pay in the registration process, please don't pay any fees, let alone enter any card number and password! Since the media, white people must remember!

We don't have to spend money on powder. Buying powder is a meaningless thing to spend money on, and it is basically useless for the development of accounts. Do a good job in content and promotion, and fans will naturally be attracted.

In the self-media operation, many novices have been unable to find the direction. I have heard the word "from the media" many times, but I just don't know how to operate it.

Below, I have compiled a self-media dry goods suggestion for zero-based newcomers. You can learn from it.

Focus! How do novices start playing media?

1. Platform selection

There are too many self-media platforms now, and novices don't know where to start.

I want to be an official WeChat account, but some people say that the dividend period of the official WeChat account has passed; Want to make headlines today, some people say that the unit price is too low; I want to be BiLi BiLi, but I can't make my own video. ......

What I want to say is that every self-media platform has people who make money from it. Others' opinions can be referenced, but you have to implement it yourself to know what kind of experience it is.

Generally speaking, there are roughly the following self-media platforms, which I have divided:

Shallow reading platform: today's headlines, big fish, penguin, Baijia, Yidian and interesting headlines.

In-depth reading platform: WeChat official account, Zhihu and Douban.

Small video platforms: Bili Bili, Tik Tok, Auto Aauto Quicker, Little Red Book.

Drainage platforms: Jianshu, Zhihu, Douban and Xiaohongshu.

If you are super white, it is recommended to choose WeChat official account and fencing practice first, because other platforms have higher requirements for verticality in the field. Please suppress your curiosity and anxiety and bring up the most basic writing first.

2. Content positioning

The reason why we choose from the media may be that some people are out of love and some people are trying to make money. In any case, earning is the fundamental driving force for us to persist for a long time.

If you want to make a profit, you must be clear about the positioning of your account. Do you want to do emotion or technology, history or entertainment, American writing or photography?

If you are still vague about the concept of positioning, and you can't guarantee that you can continue to output the content in this field, I will stick to the old saying, practice precipitation in the official WeChat account and achievements first, and don't be impatient.

3. Learn to collect and organize materials

Writing articles or creating videos almost every day from the media requires words, pictures and video materials, so where do these materials come from?

There are only two channels for obtaining materials:

Network or real life.

As a self-media person, we should always pay attention to the material content related to our own positioning. A good memory is better than a bad pen. When you see good material, you must write it down.

For example, if I see a good title, a good sentence and a good topic, I will write it down in my notebook.

Writing an article needs pictures, and it also needs pictures to cover it, so I specially arranged a picture folder and made a detailed classification to facilitate the search and use.

4. Post-planning

Make up your mind to do a good job, you can't fish for three days and dry the net for two days, how to determine the frequency of weekly updates.

You treat your account at will, and fans will treat you at will.

My post planning is specially recorded in my notebook with a pen.

Although regular plans can't keep up with changes and many plans can't be completed on time, I won't be confused every day if I write these on paper.

Finish one by one according to the plan, and then put a red tick, feeling that I am one step closer to my goal.

5. Learn to handle pictures

Since the media operation, writing is only the most basic skill. If you want the article to have the finishing touch effect, you must master the skills of image processing in your spare time.

If the illustrations and cover pictures of the official WeChat account are of good quality, it can add a lot to the article.

As for the production of the cover picture of WeChat official account, you can use picture monsters, manuscript design or maker stickers, but there are a few free fonts in these softwares, and many fonts can be used for commercial purposes only after payment.

So I suggest that if you have time, you must teach yourself simple PS skills. The future development direction of media cannot be separated from PS.

Learning typesetting

It is easy for beginners to ignore typesetting when they first start writing articles, because there is a certain difference between self-media articles and school compositions.

If you are from the media, you don't need to leave two spaces at the beginning of each paragraph, and you should get rid of the shackles of "composition" in the title and content. "Campus writing" is not popular in the media.

After writing an article, you can use your mobile phone to see if the typesetting is comfortable and concise, and then look at other people's typesetting articles and compare them to know where your problems are.

7. Executive power

Practice is the only criterion for testing truth.

I thought I had mastered the dry goods sorted by others, but I always encountered various problems in actual operation.

Since the media operation, we must try it ourselves, the execution should be in place, and we must be self-disciplined, especially for novices who have no experience. We must try more and sum up experience.

If you master the skills you should have from the media, it is natural to make money. Whether you can get this piece of media depends on you.

Generally speaking, if you want to achieve something in an industry, it is essential to persist for 10 thousand hours. I hope everyone can find their love and tenacity on this road.
