    This is a question for all the members of DP ..."Does it really matter to have every statement gramatically correct"? Will the audience prefer your website or blog on the rate of grammar accuracy" but i think that the content and the theme is more important. As i think no one loses visitors just because of grammar mistakes. If you really have a good content and it is centric to a good point noone will return from ur blog.......



    Waiting for ur ideas....... thanx...

    Grammar does matter when it comes to writing articles. Visitors (informed visitors!) generally dislike articles that are loaded with grammatical mistakes. Mistakes rob the authority out of the contents.

    Although it is impossible to be 100 percent correct all the time, try to avoid blunders...

    Absolutely my friend. It is very important to put your ideas over clearly and lucidly or it will detract from your message.

    Grammar is very important. By means of giving an accuracy and credibility on what are you talking about the article.

    Well, to be fair, it depends on what you are writing for. If it's a blog post and it is supposed to be casual, a few little grammar faux pas tossed in for humor or conversational value might get by but, if you are writing serious articles (ie... educational content) please make sure your grammar is perfect.

    I generally base my understanding of the writers legitimacy off of well.. their ability to write. And this obviously includes grammar.

    I think it depends on the sentence or instance you are referring to. For example, Look at the following statement without the use of proper grammar.

    "Let's eat, Grandma!" Now let's try it without the comma, "Let's eat Grandma!". I don't know about you but I don't want to eat my Grandma! :p;)
