Best Tools To Write Articles

Discussion in 'Copywriting' started by zaggernaut, Dec 3, 2009.

    Hi,

    I have been using '8 Minute Article Writer' for a lot of blog posts and articles. It gives me a pre-defined format to fit content into. Basically, you get form-like empty field to write your summary, intro, upto 8 bullet points, conclusion and a resource-box.

    Just wondering if there are any other effective tools like this?

    I downloaded the '8 Minute Article Writer' too but i personally think it is useless since everyone already knows how to manage the use of flow and paragraphs. It is a great tool but still doesn't help shorten writing time.

    There are plenty of article writing tool in clickbank however they are not free.

    I know what you mean, but this '8 minute writer' actually speeds up writing for me. I know I can do all that with Word, but hey using those empty form fields make you sprint from field to field faster.
    Besides, a blank Word page is scarier to start with!:D

    I think wp's default writer is pretty good.

    I have never heard of "8 minute writer". I use Open Office, I find that it is a little more secure than Microsoft Office and it is compatible.

    I never thought there is something can do the writing for me in 8 minute. maybe it is a good way, but not a brilliant way. I think article with passion is attractive.

    I do use a simple method that allows me to write a quick 300 word article in about 15 minutes or less.

    Here is what I do. I go to wikipedia or ezinearticles and lookup my keyword. Then I get about 3 points out of what i read and then i start writing. About 5 minutes of research and 10 minutes of writing.

    I havent been able to get this method to work with larger articles yet. It takes more research for me to write a 500 word article. But, I can do 2 an hour usually.

    This is not an automatic software that'll write for you. BTW you can find it on Google by typing -'8 minute article writer'.

    It only helps you structure your thoughts when you start to write. As I said, just saves you looking at that blank Word page.

    Try it and share your experience.

    I dont think it might be that usefull as every article does not get fitted in bullets format and rather if we need it hardly takes any time to use bullets and numbering in MS OFFICE 2007.

    There are quite a few article writers who use the bullet format as their style. This is why when buying articles the buyer should let the writer know what they want. I have a set a questions that I ask each buyer or prospective buyer before I start writing. This method allows me to give my client what they want.

    haha, if you imagine yourself in the exam hall, i bet you can write 1,500 words in 20 minutes. Somehow the stress of exam makes the words pour onto the page like a waterfall.

    Why don't you just write your articles yourself? I personally feel a great pleasure in writing my own articles, even though it took me some time to learn to do it right. You could also hire someone to write them for you....

    I have never looked into the "8 minute article writer" myself however it seems like what most content writers do anyway. If it helps you format and focus, it sounds like a great tool. I have to agree that at times a blank word pad is a little intimidating.

    I really don't know what to say, but I think for the talented writer, writing should come as fun. If that is the case, why need a program or software to assist you. Please I do not wish to be misunderstood on this issue. I am only speaking as someone who enjoys writing so much.

    never heard of it, but I think it's useless. I tried many automated programs that helps/write articles and they are all crap!!
