Typos in stock photographs can be good inspiration.
How annoying would it be if you could only find “answars” and no answers?
And it turns out that, once you start looking for them, spelling mistakes in premium photographs keep turning up.

Not seeing the wood for the trees is a problem for anyone who puts information on a website in the hope of helping others. Another aspect of this is the “curse of knowledge”, where you assume that your reader’s understanding of your topic is greater than it really is. If you pitch the level too high, your readers will leave before they’re much past the headline.
On this website, we try to answer questions at a variety of levels. Some articles deal with general questions and others with very specific questions. Topics like “Negligence” and “Contributory Negligence” are fairly general “cornerstone” concepts in relation to personal injury. On the other hand, though we answered the query “Can an adoptive parent claim for nervous shock as a secondary victim?”, it’s such a specific question that it’s hard to imagine many people putting it into a search engine.
WordPress-based websites like this give you the power to set up Categories and Tags. Categories are like the contents page of a book; tags are like the index.

This article lists the categories on this website in a few over-arching topics – as another idea where to look if you can’t find answers to your personal injury claim questions.
