Sam Lynas told University College Falmouth Students how blogging and writing can really influence and gain respect from editors who are looking for new and creative Journalist’s.

Lynas made clear to the students that writing can really make an impact to where students end up working or interning after university. Lynas said: “You can’t really write enough or too much” so it is clear that the more students up date and write on their blogs the better off they will be in the long run once searching for jobs.

However although some students may see writing and updating their individual blogs as a chore Lynas stressed that: “Blogging is a lot of fun, It can be quite addictive” and that the main thing about blogging is content.

He argues that there is four things to remember when uploading your content onto the web, The content must be “Interesting, Original, affordable” and have good “consistency” such updating and refreshing your writing constantly.

The main aim of his lecture to the students at Falmouth was to help them maintain a “model whereby they create interesting content designed to entertain, engage, inform, and educate their current & potential customers.”

Sam Lynas studied at University College Falmouth completing it in 2009, He now works in London as a digital content producer who freelances at prestigious healthcare.
