    Practice of course. personal blogging is a good way to get practice. Find a style that fits you. Decide what you want to do with your writing, marketing or entertaining.

    Sign up for a writing course. It's always good to get a critique from a mentor on areas of your writing where you can still improve. Helps you learn faster.

    Hope that helps. ;)

    What kind of content do you want to write? Do you want to write your own blog? Do you want to write content for other people to use in their marketing materials? Do you want to write copy (sales letters, etc) as well? Once you know what you want to write you can study other people who write the same thing--what others have said is true: the more you read the better your writing will become. You cannot be a writer without being a reader, it just won't work (for one thing, you'll have to do some reading for your research).

    That said, there are all sorts of books on writing and the different styles of writing that are popular. Visit your local library and ask to see their books on writing, you'll be amazed at how many advice guides there are. :)

    Good luck!

    Practice is the best. Find the topic that you almost like. And get into it. That's what I think..

    Search tutorial article or e-books from Google, some of them are given as free. It may not come up easily. Be patient and work hard. Try to learn from how other people written articles.
