    1. Good naming (use keywords)
    2. Introduction (use keywords)
    3. Useful content, split to short paragraphs. Write with your readers in mind.
    4. Conclusion.

    Do your research mate,

    1. First figure out the best keyword for the post.you could use keyword
    2. Include keywords/ key phrase in your post title.
    3. Enclose your post tiltles in <h1> tags
    4. Mix in the keywords with your content but beware not to fill your content with it. It’s a good practice to use variations so that you wouldn’t penalised for keyword-stuffing
    5. Use anchor text for links - When ever you link within the post try not to use links on phrases like "read here" or "click here". Try and be creative and add links to phrases that contain the article title of the link or better include the keywords.
    6. <h1> tags key points and phrases in your blog

    And oh yeah, about the title, make articles that has a heading that gives a number, for example people love titles like "10 best ways to make your Dog fly" or more subtler "The Matrix-5 reasons why you might actually be in it".

    try to be creative. if you want to see some succesful articles, go to digg or any article directly and see there best ranking articles.

    I think a lot of it is in the title, and keywords are important. You need to write in a style that entices the reader to keep reading.

    Use a compelling headline, sub-headers, and make it easy for people to read. Also, use targeted keywords.

    Wow, look at all the experts (mindless talking parrots) here. *rolls eyes*

    Anybody can say have a great headline, and blah blah blah....

    Got any examples to show this guy?

    Ugh.

    Yang, you can get all the good tips you want, not like the ones here, but they will do you no good if you cannot write proper English.

    Sorry.

    Start by finding what you think are good articles (in your field), get advice on them, and then learn from examples.

    It's much more to it than that, but it is a good start.

    Could not agree more! In any event the main thing is research carefully customer BELIEFS and VALUES. The great headline will come when you figure out correctly B&V. That's my guess.....
    As one of the greatest copywriters once said "No matter how much they need it, they will not buy it unless they want it!"

    Sumbit your articles all over the web on article websites, keep it interesting, not spammy. Just keep on going.

    News reporting often works well - people always read the news.

    Before writing any article you need to select a topic, after this i recommend to find that top keywords on net. Many article writers may already write same topic. Which give you two benefits, one it will give you idea how to narrate your article and second it give you idea to avoid duplicate.

    When thinking about a subject you're about to write about, ask youself: "Why should you care about this? Why should you care about this right now?What pain will be caused if you ignore this article? What pleasure will you gain if you read this article? Write compelling copy that addresses these concerns and you'll be well on your way.
