Hi DPers, My name is Oscar and am an article writer par excellence. While I know this sounds a bit far fetched, it is the truth. I am looking for clients that I can work with on a long term basis. Clients that would require about 50+ articles a month. Clients with less quantity are also welcome. I'd really like to tell you all how good I am at writing given that I have experience dating over 4 years now. However, because you have important things to do, I'll go straight to the point and offer you my article writing services as I believe that a quick perusal of my samples would give you an idea of the quality of articles you can look forward to getting. 1. Question: First, what kinds of content/Articles would you get? Answer: Undiluted, high quality information plus error-free contents that can only be nothing short of top range articles. All articles will be written in the conversational "me to you" tone. Thus, giving the reader the impression that you are talking to him alone and no one else. If you prefer a less informal tone, that can be done also. 2. Question: Will the articles be original? Answer: You bet. After getting the articles, you can run them through the best duplicate-checking software -copyscape and the likes- on the internet. I can assure you that you will NEVER find anything that would remotely look like an unoriginal, copy-and-paste, plagiarized work. 3. Question: What is the turnaround period? Answer: As of now, I am a little slow on things as a result of the fact that I am in-between projects. However, the turnaround period would depend on two things: The quantity of articles ordered and my work schedule. But, you can be sure that all orders will be filled and delivered within 48 hrs after confirming your orders. If there is going to be a change in schedule, I will make sure to notify you. In summary, I can turn in between 5-10 articles a day. More when I am less busy. At this juncture, it is imperative to inform you that reliability is a very strong aspect of my business. So, you will not hear stories of "crashed hard disks" or "suddenly taking ill and having to go to the hospital". We all hope that we will be in sound health of mind and body. But in the eventuality that this occurs, I will notify you immediately and refund your money so that I will not waste your time at all. 4. Question: That said, what are your fields of specialization? Answer: I have a lot experienced crafting articles in the following fields/Niches/disciplines: * Internet marketing :This includes money making techniques online, list building tactics, affiliate marketing, membership website tutorials, website promotion and traffic generation techniques, small viral report writing, writing e-courses, ebooks, Building websites, presells, and so much more… *Home Business: This includes startup, advanced business building strategies, monetization models, lead generation techniques, Home business management procedures and techniques, Network and Multi Level Marketing and lots more… *Health: This includes weight loss, Fitness tips, fat loss and burning, constipation, sexual health, yeast infection, acne, acid reflux, skin care and anti-aging regimens, depression, hypothyroidism, eczema, nutrition, hair loss, yoga, hemorrhoids, quit and stop smoking techniques, Nail fungus removal, anxiety and panic attacks, back pains, alternative and herbal therapies and quite a few other fields. *Self Improvement and Personal Development: This includes topics on leadership, improving work performance, emotional intelligence, NLP (Neuro- Linguistic Programming), Breaking addictions, Time management, Positive attitudes and affirmations, self esteem, motivation, Success techniques et.c. *Relationships: This also includes dating, marriage, preventing divorce, saving marriages, counseling, Improving relationships, spicing up relationships -both familial and personal, dating advice and tips, Love, marriage, attracting the right person, friendship , personality enhancement, commitment, dating for boomers and so on… Well, that is about my areas of GREAT strength. Other fields and niches I can write articles on are: -Gardening -Dog Training -Pet Care 5. Question: What are your rates? Answer: As you well know, I could offer the "normal" 1 cent/word that you often find here on DP and then go ahead to disappoint you like I am sure many other writers have. But because of the quality of work you will get backed by the certainty that you will get the articles as at when due, my rates are at $0.02/word. Believe me, this is a steal as I guarantee that you will get maximum value for your money. In summary, here are my rates in figures: 200-300 words: $6 301-400 words: $8 401-500 words: $10 501-600 words: $12 All bulk orders -25+ articles- attract a handsome discount of 10% and an extra article for every 10 written. 6. Question: Can I see some samples? Answer: Yes. You'll find quite a few pasted below for your perusal: ==================================================================================== http://ezinearticles.com/?How-Do-I-Get-Rid-of-Acne-Without-Having-Scars&id=1339479 http://ezinearticles.com/?How-Do-I-Get-Rid-of-Acne-Using-Proven-Formulas?&id=1317379 http://ezinearticles.com/?Constipation-Help---Helpful-Tips-For-Constipation-Treatment&id=781605 http://ezinearticles.com/?How-To-Prevent-And-Stop-Your-Dog-From-Digging-Up-The-Lawn&id=627474 http://ezinearticles.com/?Feline-Co...hods-for-Curing-Feline-Constipation&id=743749 ===================================================================================== Best Affiliate Markets for Beginners Many people want to start selling products online but have a problem deciding which markets to go into. Truth be told, the internet is so vast a market that it cannot be totally explored. This is why many people are at a loss for which markets to go into. One of the very first questions you hear most intending affiliate marketers ask is “what are the best affiliate markets?†This is because everyone wants to go where the money is. In this article, we will be looking at what markets are best in terms of both profitability and popularity. How do you know if a market is one of the best affiliate markets? Simple, they have the following characteristics: - They have a major problem that needs solving - They are willing to do nearly anything –including part with their hard earned cash- just to get rid of that problem - There is a solution that can meet the needs of the said category of people. These are the things that you need to look for if you are looking for the best affiliate markets to sell products and solutions to. 1. The Fat loss Market Have you noticed how obese people are getting these days? Yes it’s because we are a generation of lazy people who would rather eat than exercise. This is why you will make a lot of money form this market. Most overweight and obese people are looking for ways to cut down the fat without as much as an exercise. This is where you come in. One of the best affiliate markets you could ever have is staring you right in the face because of its ability to provide these ailing people with a solution. Also note that this market is also fiercely competitive as there are lots of palkyers in the field and some –if not most –of them, better than you are. In this best affiliate market, you will have to do your own research and find your own unique selling point to have an edge. It is hard but possible. 2. The Insurance market This is known as one of the best affiliate markets too. The insurance sector in the US alone is stated to be worth over $100 Billion. This means you can take your share of this market and make some money. The only thing most insurance companies pay for is known as leads. Subscribers don’t have to buy anything. All they have to do is leave their email addresses and you get paid. This kind of affiliate program is known as the Pay per Lead. You get paid for every lead you bring in. 3. The Dog Training Market There are currently over 10 million pet dogs in the United States alone. This means that this is one of the best affiliate markets you could ever tap from. Dog owners want to find a way to train their dogs and they are willing to pay for it. So, all you have to do is join an affiliate program on Clickbank.com or CJ.com and start promoting their dog training programs. 4. The Health market The popularly touted saying “health is wealth†has never been truer. People are finally coming to realize that they need to make money and still live healthily to enjoy it. Gone are those days when all people wanted to do was just make more money until they dropped dead. This trend of thought is what has accounted for the over $80 Billion vitamins and nutritional supplements market. Because this market is one of the very best affiliate markets, it is easy for a newbie to find a product that will sell and make a killing from it. ============================================================================= Secrets to Writing Attention Grabbing Article Headlines In most instances, it is likely that your article will get read as a result of your headline. If the title of an article headline is not catchy enough to pique a reader’s interest, you might as well, not have written that article. This is because the title of article will determine whether the article gets read or not by as many people as possible. One of the reasons many articles don’t get read is because the titles and headlines do not even pique anything in their readers’ curiosity. So, it appears as just one article some bloke wrote. Your article headline should as much as possible, grab your readers’ attention and get them thinking “what is he sayingâ€, “can there be something more†et.c. As a webmaster or writer, one thing you really want to happen to your article is for it to go viral and get picked by many people who want to see what you have to say. If you are looking for the principal key to making this work, your article headlines are what you need to work on properly. This is because article directories are in love with catchy headlines as they make people curious about the article. This in effect increases their number of visitors as more people pick up the articles and post it on their websites. These days, people’s articles are getting rejected by the moderated article directories as a result of headlines that are boring. Not many people have caught up on this yet and therefore do not know why their articles are declined. In essence, this is a determining factor in the pulling in of visitors and increasing the number of people who view your article and must not be neglected. In fact, it should be given the utmost attention. Luckily there are ways this can be remedied as writing headlines can be easy when you know what psychological triggers to use. Some examples are the words “get rid, secrets, revealed, the truth behind, how to, reason, tips, discover, red hot et.c These trigger words have the ability to trigger some questions in the minds of readers. For example, headlines like “Discover the Secrets to Getting Rid of nail Fungus†or ‘How to get rid of nail fungus†are more likely to get you interested in an article with that topic than a headline that reads “nail fungus treatment’. You get the picture. Sometimes, these trigger words can be used in a certain manner and order that makes them completely irresistible. Notice how in the first headline sample I added up the words “discover, secrets, get rid. These trigger words packed together in one headline is more likely to deliver more clickthroughs for you than anything else. There are several ways you can really get to attract people to view your articles and believe me, they are inexhaustible. But take your time to read up books on copywriting and sales letter writing. I am sure that marketers who know what I am saying here will agree with me that you need to have a headline loaded with trigger words to get the best results out of your articles. ==================================================================================== Top 3 Secrets to Getting Online Writing Jobs Super Fast You know the internet is so rife with website these days that the need for writers far exceeds any other demand online. Making money writing articles is one of the easiest forms of money making techniques that is available online. This article will expose you three secrets that will ensure that your inbox always keeps getting filled with requests for your services starting 5 minutes from now. 1. Use the freelance directories and websites. Not much of a secret huh? But follow me closely. The key to bringing in the most profits from these websites is by ensuring that your profile is well built. So what if you are completely new to the writing thing? State it clearly that you are new and are looking to gain experience. Never claim to do what you can't. Most service seekers on these job boards know that people do a lot of hyping. So, keep it original and you’ll have more than enough clients in no time. 2. Use the forums to advertise your writing services. A website like forums.digitalpoint.com has a content creation section where you can advertise your services as a writer. But before doing all that, ensure that you contribute to the forum. Digitalpoint has some restriction policies. If you are new, all you would have to do would be to make about 30 posts. Once this is filled, you can then go on to post your content writing services. The key to maximizing this opportunity is this: Take your time to study the forum. You do not want to start with the $8 per 500 word rate when others are offering their services for just $4-$5 per 500 words. Start with these rates, after which you can then increase the rates for the next batch of jobs that they might have for you. Apart from digitalpoint, you can also easily secure writing jobs on wickedfire.com, ablake.net/forums, selfstartersweeklytips.com/forum, and a host of other forums. Make sure that your offers are spread over these forums. I have a list of about 20 highly profitable forums. Use these and you are most likely to have more than enough jobs in a very short while. 3. Instead of posting just one ad a day on these forums, do yourself a favor, post every 2hrs –with different headlines and body of course- or 3hrs, it all depends on you. The reason for this is your ad may quickly get buried under the tons of ads coming in. Create new ads and post every couple of hours. This will ensure that people who need to see your offers see it. Sometimes, it is possible that the people who needed your services the first time you posted may not be online at that time. So posting again may get them to come looking for you. This way, it is guaranteed that you would have at least 2 clients a day willing to pay you about $50 for a batch of 10 articles each. So you see that in a day, you could literally earn $100 consistently. All it takes is a bit of work. ======================================================================= There you go.
