Sometimes it’s called the “lead,” and sometimes that word is spelled “lede.” When you’re writing an article—whether it’s for a blog or a review site or somewhere else—it’s always a good idea to begin with something interesting to hook a reader. If it’s a piece of thought leadership, maybe you want to start with a little anecdote, or a familiar problem. If you’re putting together something for businesses, you might start off with a relevant piece of data.
