What's wrong here?
1. Watch out for "obnoxious" punctuation. This includes the excessive use of exclamation points and question marks.
2. Don't be a comma draper; use them only when needed.
3. Type everything out - it's only two more letters to type to replace the ampersand (&).
4. Varying sentence form entails not only using different amounts of thoughts. Consider using punctuation marks like semicolons to spice up your writing.

Corrected paragraph:

Hint: Stay updated
Be sure to stay up to date with your grammar skills. Grammar standards change frequently, and, especially in the modern world of the Internet, you need to stay on top of any new standards.
