Are you planning to write a tutorial post for your blog? Why don’t you present it in a new and effective manner? Writing tutorial article consumes more time compared to regular or list type posts, you have to take screenshot of each step then add them one by one in WordPress editor. Adding image after each step is not an ideal way if you are writing a long tutor article.
