a very simple tutorial, while there is a truth in it, there are also some myths.
I stress that it is important to have some reference point in the scene. It helps avoiding the "flat" and "tiny" appearance of some landscapes.
A foreground or some kind of "path" to the background scenery can also be of use (a meadow in the foreground, a fence, a wall...).
Very related to the above is your statement of the wide angle lens. While it can be of great use and effectiveness (especially if you have a great foreground object) it is deceptive and the results usually look flat and boring.
You would need to view the results very big (essentially projected slides).
I think that the best results I get are with 35mm and 50mm lenses. Some cameras have very useful 40 or 45mm fixed lenses!
The usage of a wider lens is good if you couple if with cropping to a panoramic wide format though.

You've done this very simple, something I think is a downside. Good start, but people need more information than this. There are many ways of processing and image, both on the camera, and on the computer....So, great start, but very simple.
