    For me it depends on the word count, the subject and the amount of research that is needed. If it is a 400 word article on a subject I have a good amount of knowledge on then I can have one done in about 10 minutes.

    Usually around 30 minutes. I like to fine tune as I go, as well as read it over when I'm done.

    Hi,

    On average about 20 mins.

    If I'm "re-writing" one of my own articles for clickbank marketing, then on a good day, about 15 mins including submitting it. If it's something I need to think about, it can take half an hour or more.

    I always spell-check outside of the EZA site, usually with Word - not because I can't spell, but because I can't type!

    Also, I ALWAYS read through the EZA article preview. Spell checkers miss a lot. If you type "you should always clean your hard dick", a spell checker isn't gonna know that you meant to write "disk" :)

    So it's worth spending 5 mins re-reading and checking your articles, especially if you want click-throughs rather than just link juice. Nobody will click your link if your article looks like it was written by a ten year old. IMO.

    I usually get a CTR of 25 - 50% for my Ezine Articles.

    Cheers,
    Zander

    English is not my first language too, but I can manage to write one article in about 10-15 minutes.

    Usually I write 5 a day.

    It takes me about 15-30 minutes usually.

    And for Bl4chman, if you should count the article content that you added to your site daily... I would say you average about 20 articles per day. I'm subscribed to your rss feed and it's updated sometimes more than 10 times per day.

    I'm really surprise that English isn't your first language! I thought you were from the UK?

    Well, it takes me about 5 hours to research, write, rewrite and proofread a 1000 word article, but then again my content has been in newspapers with millions of readers etc.

    it used to take me about an hour to write each article. Then i read a really good tutorial at wealthy affiliate (see my signature link), and now it only takes me a about 15 minutes. What the article basically said is that you need a structure, so an introduction, 3 or 4 points, and a conclusion. It went into more detail, but in the intro you tell them what you are going to say, then you get 4 interesting points on the subject, and expand a paragraph on each, and then in the conclusion you tell them what you just told them (or if its ezine articles, you can have no conclusion, because then they concentrate on your resource box)

    Another helpful program is the 8 minute article writer (google it, its free). This works on a similar principle and does help speed up your article writing a little bit.

    Also take it easy, as you get more practice you'll get better and faster, and realize not everything has to be perfect.
