Do you use a word processor to type up articles?

Do you use a word processor like Microsoft Word for typing up articles? Or do you prefer to write your articles on the website you're writing for? I've used a word processor in the past while writing reviews for a website, however when I did this I needed to edit my post prior to publishing my work because the formatting on the website broke my article and sentences were broken up and it was a unreadable mess. I think it's better to write your articles on the website, save a draft and then post it whenever it's ready to be published.
 
I have in the past sat and written articles using Microsoft Word but for the most part, I prefer to write up the articles on the website they are going to be published on and then save them as a draft whilst I work on them and proofread them to fix any issues.

I usually use Microsoft Word when clients wish for me to send the work I complete in a file.
 
When I am writing on my smartphone, I use a word counter Notepad to write my contents. That is because I have to monitor that my content is well structured to fall in line with the required word count. There are times though that I just get inspired and start writing on the submission pane too, but the use of a word processor always makes it easier for me.

On the PC, i get to use Google Docs. It is intuitive and has good tools to enhance my writing tasks.
 
Microsoft word is what I use most of the time. But if I am working on my phone I make use of WPS because it is easier to navigate. So I mostly use the two to get my work done.
 
Yes, I use Microsoft Word. I draft my articles first in Microsoft Word and once I am happy with everything I will transfer this to the platform. I will keep a copy of the article saved on my computer in case of any technical issues too.
 
I use Google Docs for the version control. Since the rise of Ai, one of my clients asks for the versions and I also want to follow the changes I have made, especially for large drafts that change a lot.

That's a smart move! I use Google Docs too. It's very ideal for tracking changes, which is very crucial. Google Docs is ideal for efficient editing any time, any day.
