5 Useful Tools for Productive Online Writing

Creating content for the web isn’t easy, especially when there are so many tempting distractions. Hence it is important that a web writer is familiar with some tools of the trade that help in enhancing his productivity as a writer.

Following is a list of 5 tools which I think should be present in every writer’s toolbox. With the exception of the last one, they’re particularly suited for online writing

1. Dark Room for Windows and WriteRoom for Mac

Both Dark Room and WriteRoom are same tools, except that the former is for Windows and latter for Macs. They are probably the best distraction free writing software available.

2. Windows Live Writer

Windows Live Writer is undoubtedly the best desktop blogging client available. None of the other such tools, even its Mac counterparts, come close.

3. Evernote

4. Freemind

Freemind is a free mind mapping software to help you generate ideas and document your thought process.
