The Five Types of Words Readers Find the Most Valuable
Highly valuable words will help you win the war of words
As a writer, you’re as good as the value readers place on your words. The more valuable readers find your words, the more of your articles they read, the more of your books they buy, etc.
That’s the stark reality of the writer’s life, especially in the online space where millions of words and books are jostling for the top spot in rankings.

But whether or not we enjoy that break, we must always be ready to take advantage by making our words more valuable. Here are a few ways to make your words more valuable.
