Important Tips

Play to your advantage with words that may not work. In Words with Friends, you can keep playing over and over again when you place a word that does not work instead of losing your turn in Scrabble. This can be advantageous for you, especially  when you are trying to buy time. You should use it wisely and see if you cannot benefit from placing a few words that you just know are not going to fly.

Become an expert at two and three-letter words. The more you know, the easier it is going to be to play with the tiles you were dealt. There are several small words it takes nothing to learn, and you can have them on the ready for when you inevitably just need some points and a move to make. You'd be surprised what flies in the game, so create a running list of two-letter words that you identify as kosher during normal play.

You should utilize the letters you see on the board. Just like with Scrabble, there are already letters and bonuses on the board for you to use. You should try and use them at any time you can do, as you will end up scoring higher.

You have to make your first move count.  You should not waste it on a two or three-letter word if you can help it. In case you have  got to build a long word, then play it left of center. If you need to do a short word, play it to the right. You should be careful with the words you use right off the bat, because it can and will set the tone for the remainder of the game.

Be smart about swapping out letters. Try not to waste valuable turns exchanging letters if you can absolutely help it. The best time to go ahead and swap is if you're consistently holding letters like Q, Z, or other hard-to-place letters. If you feel as though you are flooded with vowels or consonants then go ahead and take the plunge, but try and save it as your last resort.
