    Err, to be really honest. I don't think anyone would buy your article. It doesn't really have a purpose to it. After reading the article, i have not idea what you were trying to say or what i am i supposed to learn.
    Sorry dude, but you need good articles to be able to sell them.

    This reads horribly. It sounds like you spun an article since so many of the words used are just wrong. The punctuation is also bad, as you use periods to start sentences instead of to end them. And, as Howard Lim pointed out, the article has no real message or purpose. All in all, you could not pay me to use something like that. It flat out sucks.

    Browntwn, Howard Lim! Folks you guys are way too senior on this Forum. Lets help the guy

    Dear Sharifzahid!

    Article Writing for websites is totally different than essay or story writing. The principles for writing school or college subject literature class are not followed or appreciated here. For writing something to be placed on website as web content you need to think of its audience first. I am not much of an author type myself but what I have learned from these forums about Article Writing is that every article has a motive (and trust me that is not knowledge sharing). Article writing is very important in today's SEO market. First you have to focus on the purpose and need of writing the article. You can consider your articles as baits to catch fish from the water. Articles with appealing titles with quality contents are really expensive but random writing without closing to a conclusion, this is not web's way. I will suggest you to read Article Writing tips on different blogs before you start writing your next article.

    Best of Luck

    And what that might be? Writers have only words to sell :) its only the pattern they follow to write those words that raise the pay grade. isn't it?

    Yup, but that rule only applies to writers. Our friend here doesn't seem to be a writer by profession. So i am suspecting he is better at something else.

    You got that right! Unfortunately we can't take primary level English classes here.

    You mock him and waste his time suggesting that the problem is just that he wrote in the wrong style. You do someone no favors by downplaying the problems with his writing.

    The article he showed us looks to me just to be a very poorly written re-write of this article on the same topic. He may very well be a good writer in his native language but, to me, this piece fails for two reasons. First, it seems to be a copy of a another article which has been chopped up and shortened and re-written to the point where it lost its meaning and simply does not flow well or tell a coherent story as you first noted. The second problem is that the punctuation as well as the word usage shows someone who simply is not very competent as a writer in English. It may be harsh but it is true.

    It loosely follows the same story, but one is decently written and the other seems to just be saying things without even really grasping the meaning of the words being written.

    This is some of the worst writing I have seen in a long time. Why would you think that anyone would want to buy this. You are always trying to sell something here and both things I have seen have been of very poor quality. Why not just give something of value to the forum?

    The article is not too bad, at least it made me smile, especially the gay inmate population at the hostel :) But don't publish articles you are wanting to sell, your buyers may want to do it themselves.

    Looks like it was translated using Google Translate.
