I Hate Writing Articles - Isn't There An Easier Way?! Owning, running and maintaining an internet based business or a site needs articles. Plain and simple, every who has a site knows this. Even those who don’t have sites but are frequent internet users knows this as well. Articles quench the thirst for information and knowledge of the people. Plus, the articles provides many other benefits for the site. The benefits that articles provide are putting a site high in the ranking in search results of keywords and keyword phrases that pertains or are relevant to his or her site. They also provide attraction to website visitors when they are appreciated and is linked to your site from another site or newsletter. Articles provide for the increase of the confidence and trust levels of customers to your site and company. Many articles are also beneficial to both company and its traffic. When the readers like the articles, they would tell more of their friends, family and peers and recommend your site to them, providing for a larger volume of traffic. You get bigger sales if your traffic trusts and believes in you. Your product or services would be much easier to sell when they know you know what you are doing and talking about. So ok, we have established that articles are very important to a site and to business. Articles are crucial and to keep ahead in the game, a site must have an article, it is imperative. There is one dilemma though, not many people like writing articles. Many website owners would rather spend their time on something else, and unless you’re a big time company, you don’t have the necessary resources to use on a pool of article writers. Plagiarism or copying of other articles is frowned upon and could easily get you into trouble, worst case scenario; a hefty fine and jail time. So what are the other options? Well, for starters if you hate writing articles and you can’t afford to hire people to write for you then don’t. Get free articles. The first place to look at for free articles is the public domain. Here you won’t have problems with copyright infringement and the following penalties and fines if you get caught for plagiarism. Public domain articles are articles freely given to the public for public use. You can do whatever you want with it. You can place it on your site, name it as yours, put it in a newsletter its you decision. Always remember though that you will have to choose articles that is very relevant to your site. The downside to public domain articles is that since it is free for everybody, many of your competitors may have access to them as well. Since every site needs to be original and unique even though you have the same niche, this could be a predicament. You may also have to edit them a bit to place more keywords and keyword phrases to make them better. Another way to get free articles is to allow other sites which has the same subject or topic as yours to submit articles to your site. This would be only to augment your existing content or else all your articles would be leading to other sites since these articles would have resource boxes with them that could link or direct the readers to their site. That’s why it is important to have your own articles; you cold use them to link your site to other sites as well. But, to truly feel the impact of what a good article to you, go for original ones. There are many article writers who do part time and freelance article writing jobs that charges only minimal fees. You can get good articles that have all the keywords and keyword phrases you need and people are looking for. The investment you made for these articles would be worthwhile because you could use them for all the benefits you could offer. You hold copyrights to them and you will be able to use them anyway you want. As your articles help you in building your business and your site, you will have more articles to write and maybe then you wont be having second thoughts about articles.
I am too a lazy man and not want to write tooooo much on sites. But A good site must have some good content .. try to switch to forums culture or USE RSS
I posted this to try to help people with ideas on how to find alternatives! plus some people want to establish themselves as an expert in their niche.
lol, Mr.crow. you must want to totally focused on your Articles Brokrage. I am sure you will acheived most then you expected
Well dont you always hear everyone say "focus" ? But I didnt include my article brokerage site in the post at all, it was to give people some ideas! What should I write about .. "webdesign"??? I dont know nothing about it!
LOL samskpunk good pitch for the team! That was a Home Run! Of course if someone asked me for a recomendation I "might" just recommend my darling wife.
hmmm hijack my thread will ya ... 3 wacks with a wet noodle 1..... 2.... 3 Hope you learned your lesson
How is that hijacking this thread? The article you posted (was it written by your wife or yourself?) was directly on the point of what to do if you don't like to write your own content. Your post provided some insight of where to go and how to get relevant content for a website that may be in development, or, already established. Hans32 merely suggested another alternative to obtaining content. No hijack there since it was inline with your original post.
no I did not, I have a wife who writes and its from a pack of her Private Label Rights she sells where people are supposed to change the articles a little and use.
The irony of this post was really funny. Somebody posting an article he wrote about how he doesn't like to write articles to promote his site full of articles. If you don't like to write articles, you have 3 options: 1) Get out of the AdSense business. 2) Become a really good photographer and attract people to your site that way, or similarly, become a really good programmer and provide a new and exciting service. 3) Become a really good marketer and pay GOOD writers to write original articles just for you. Recycling stuff from free article directories is not a viable long-term option. It's a do-no-work get-rich-quick scheme which suckers in so many people that they all have to do work to compete with each other and none of them get rich quick.
This is not my particular area of expertise, but I'll chime in anyways. Using articles from other sources could work for a newcomer, if they can manage to arrange the information in some new way on their site. You have to think, are you providing something unique to your visitors? If you new site is just like ten others, then you will certainly fail. So my advice would be to get/buy articles from many different sources and of course write / hire someone to write some new ones.
Wow, I expected as much. You might want to tell her to proof her copy, as that article contains a bunch of spelling and grammatical errors. You'll definately lose interested customers by showing inferior writing skills, no matter how much of a recommendation you receive by others. Now it's my turn to allow me to recommend a copyediting service to you, lol. Just a professional opinion from someone who has been on this side of the road for a while now.. David
Ok jeeplaw these were written almost 1.5 years ago and I think to take potshots like that is pretty shitty , I can post many of her works in this thread that are perfectly fine ... Please go attack someone elses thread cause when you attack my wife you come to the wrong door. And it was me who just grabbed it from a bunch of old files we had. The purpose of the thread was to give people ideas! I agree I should have asked her first !
