    Hello all.

    I am not quite new at the world of internet marketing.Earlier I outsourced for the content,but now I want to write it on my own.I have enough time to do that and want to try my skills out.

    The point is that I am new to the content writing and copywriting.
    I would like to know what exactly you are doing to get a good quality content.What resources do you use?Free ones or not,recommend what you find it useful.

    It would be legal.I don't want infringement of copyright.

    I you can give an example shortly,it would be perfectly.

    Thank you in advance!

    For all of my content I simply use Google search. I'll search specific keywords in Google with "quotes" around them which allows you to find the most specific results based on your keywords. I then look over the first two pages worth of results and will base my original content off of the information provided within those sites.

    The key to quality content is great research. As long as you research the topic/niche well then you'll be fine.

    You don't need anything else, except the ability to write, of course.

    Good luck and I hope this helps. :)

    Hey grickalica,

    A prerequisite to writing decent content or copy is a basic grasp of the English language; i.e. proper sentence construction and correct grammar.

    It is absolutely legal to go to forums and hire writers. Whereas copying text from a website and using it for your own is illegal if done without the consent of the website owner.

    The best resource to find good writers and tips is forums like Dp and wickedfire, you can google for similar forums.

    Like what others have posted, good research and tons of it are what you need to compose a good article. But apart from that, the secret is to write from your heart. Let your content speak what is inside your heart. Most of the writers I have teamed with in the past all think of the payout which is not the ultimate prize in writing. But satisfaction with your work is, and it will eventually help you understand what other people need when they ask for some articles to be written.

    When writing the content, you must also think of yourself as the mere reader or your targeted audience. Putting yourself on their shoes will help you write good and impacting contents.
