I have been writing articles for a few months now and it feels like it's taking me forever to write each one. starting out I want to sell bundles of at least 5 to 10 articles...which right now seems daunting. Any useful suggestions and tips to help me write more efficiently?
Do some solid market research and you should be fine. Write about what you know. Its the only way to go. If not, outsource it.
No friend like you can see most of the big article directories are not allowed to use high density of keywords. Search engines are very smart now they can analyze how you use your keywords in your content. By using extra density your content will be discouraged. Dont mind its my analysis and experience. You can give your own opinion.
Make Schedule of your writing work. Like set your daily tasks that how many articles that you have to write in one day. Do this work like full time job. I used to write 3 to 4 articles in one go. I dont get panic about topic. I can write on any topic. Just do research on google then make 5 points. Then eleborate these 5 points and take it upto 400 words. These are few tips that i use to follow.
If it were me, I'd pick a niche and sell articles about that. That way I could find a fair bit to write without too much research. I think you need to establish a writing format and then a formula for creating said article. abuzar345's idea of 5 points seems a solid one. Add to that a time limit for each article and you should have a good system to take forward. I'd say the focus should be on quality and quantity balanced with cost. You need to make a profit but you don't want to under/over price articles. Spending an eternity on one article pushes your costs sky high.
