You can write and submit many articles quickly if you know how to do it. Here are some tips for writing five to ten articles in one day.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;ul&gt;&lt;li&gt;Make sure you know why you are writing the article. It may be that you want to attract visitors back to your website or blog, would like to build your list by having people sign up for your newsletter or ezine, or you may have a product or service you would like to sell. Whatever the reason, be clear about it before you write your article.&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;Write on a topic you know well. The main idea behind writing articles is to provide your reader with good information. If you are unable to do this on the topic you are writing on, it may be because you do not know it well enough or that you need to do more research on the topic before you can write about it well.&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;Keep a notebook and make notes about what you will write about before you start writing. If you are going to give tips or advice, make a list of what you intend to include in your article.&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;Set a schedule for yourself to write each day. I write better in the morning, so I keep my notes next to the computer and write one or two articles when I wake up in the morning. Find your time of day that you can be the most productive.&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;Make sure you have a quiet, comfortable workspace in which to write. It is not a good idea to write where you will be interrupted by people or the telephone. Have a comfortable chair so your back won't get sore while you are writing.&lt;/li&gt;&lt;/ul&gt;&lt;p&gt;Follow these tips consistently and you will be able to write many articles every day to increase your traffic, build your list, and make more money than you have ever made before while supplying good information to thousands of readers around the world.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;table border="0" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0"&gt;&lt;tbody&gt;&lt;tr&gt;&lt;td valign="top"&gt;&lt;div id="sig" class="sig"&gt;&lt;p&gt;And now I invite you to join me for free weekly teleseminars that will teach you how to write, market, and sell your articles and ebook to increase your visibility, credibility and passive income by visiting &lt;a id="link_78" target="_new" href="http://www.ebookwritingandmarketingsecrets.com/"&gt;http://www.EbookWritingandMarketingSecrets.com&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/td&gt;&lt;td&gt;&lt;div style="border: 1px solid rgb(255, 255, 255); margin: 0pt 0pt 0pt 10px; padding: 0pt; background: rgb(255, 255, 255) none repeat scroll 0% 50%; -moz-background-clip: -moz-initial; -moz-background-origin: -moz-initial; -moz-background-inline-policy: -moz-initial;"&gt;&lt;img src="http://ezinearticles.com/members/mem_pics/Connie-Ragen-Green_68815.jpg" alt="Connie Ragen Green - EzineArticles Expert Author" border="0" height="90" width="78" /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/td&gt;&lt;/tr&gt;&lt;/tbody&gt;&lt;/table&gt;</content><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://www.articlexpert.com/2008/02/article-writing-and-marketing-how-to.html' title='Article Writing And Marketing - How To Easily Write 5 To 10 Articles Every Day'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=168335807215059682&amp;postID=2734419953391817679' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.articlexpert.com/atom.xml' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/168335807215059682/posts/default/2734419953391817679'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/168335807215059682/posts/default/2734419953391817679'/><author><name>Articl Expert .com</name></author></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-168335807215059682.post-8564982908681138234</id><published>2008-02-14T19:01:00.001-08:00</published><updated>2008-02-14T19:01:54.236-08:00</updated><title type='text'>How To Achieve Success By Writing Articles</title><content type='html'>&lt;div id="body"&gt;&lt;p&gt;In order to build a successful online business, you need traffic. Traffic is the lifeblood of everything on the Internet. There are many ways to generate traffic but my preferred method is by writing articles. Articles provide an advantage in that they continue bringing in traffic for months after they've been written. Advertising, forum posts, and Pay Per Click programs only provide traffic for a day or two after they are run. Another reason I like writing articles is that it is FREE!&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;The key to generating traffic writing articles is consistency. You have to write articles every day if you want to be successful. In fact, to be really successful, you should write more than one article daily. I write three of them each day. So if you would like to make a full time income from your Internet business, you should consider writing multiple articles each day.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;The other thing to consider in order to achieve success by writing articles is who to submit them to. I find that it works well to submit each article to the largest twenty-five article directory sites. These directories are already getting traffic so my articles get plenty of page views on these sites. And, the more page views my articles get, the more traffic I generate.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Submitting to these largest sites also provides me with plenty of back links to my sites. These back links are important in the eyes of the search engines. The more back links you have, the higher your sites will rank in Internet searches. And again, a higher rank in search results will produce even more traffic.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;So if you want to achieve success online, consider writing articles every day. You will see a steady increase in your traffic flow, and as traffic increases, so will your online income.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Do you want to learn more about making money on the Internet?

The art of persuasion is by and large carrying out a win-win situation. It is presenting an instance that visitors find favorable to agree with. It is making them an offer they can hardly refuse. Article marketing which can spawn higher tick through rates and lower cost per tick.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;1) As in anything there are techniques that can make your job easier and your case more convincing. Although there are exactly no hard and fast rules there are strategies that are used commonly because they simply work.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;2) Before anything else, know your audience. It is significant that you have targeted the right audience. Know their knowledge level because people who are able to understand what you are driving at can easily adapt your ideas.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;3) Choose a topic that you feel comfortable with. It can be a topic or article which feels good when it can help others that may have struggled with the same problem.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;4) Be repetitive. It is essential in creative writing. Repetition gives emphasis. This way a reader can easily understand what you are trying to say. Be repetitive in a good way. It could either be through an example, using a story, or quoting a famous person.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;5) The figures of speech like metaphors, similes and analogies can be a writer's best friends. Comparisons can make it easier for the readers to recognize the picture you are painting. It is like being in common grounds. There is nothing strange or something the readers are not familiar with.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;6) Use power words that agitate and stir opinions. Your words have to be emotion-ridden. But at the same time they give solution as an answer that things will be better. These are words that eventually provoke response. But you have to make sure that the specific phrase has something to do with your business. Make every word count.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;7) Consistency in ideas shows integrity and rational actions. Being consistent would make it difficult for the reader not to agree with you. It has been established in sociology books that consistency in our thoughts and actions is a valid social trait.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;8) Connect to the future. Provide your readers with a glimpse of what is to come. Try to extrapolate recent events into probable future results. Here is where your credibility stands. If you are able to back up with remarkable credentials and obvious understanding of the subject matter, this will become a powerful technique of persuasion.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;9) Never bother with commercials in your article. Your readers are humans who have al the right to benefit from your article. With the use of the resource box don't fill it with commercials. This will establish your credibility as an expert author on your chosen topic.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;10) As much as possible make your article short. Let your ideas flow naturally in clear and short article. Write an attention-grabbing title and give it away for free. Make an alliance with others and encourage them to give your e-book as bonus for their paid products.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Please visit &lt;a id="link_83" target="_new" href="http://www.bluebirdwritingservices.com/"&gt;http://www.bluebirdwritingservices.com&lt;/a&gt; to order search engine optimized website content and articles for your personal website and directories.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Author is one of the most highly paid copywriter under pen name webcont247365 on outsourcing website and owner of bluebird writing services.&lt;/p&gt;</content><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://www.articlexpert.com/2008/01/10-article-writing-tips-for-effective.html' title='10 Article Writing Tips for Effective Article Writing'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=168335807215059682&amp;postID=6408694668480133313' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.articlexpert.com/atom.xml' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/168335807215059682/posts/default/6408694668480133313'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/168335807215059682/posts/default/6408694668480133313'/><author><name>Articl Expert .com</name></author></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-168335807215059682.post-6266446310263756905</id><published>2008-01-18T18:29:00.002-08:00</published><updated>2008-01-18T18:31:29.990-08:00</updated><title type='text'>Top 7 Tips For Submitting Articles Online</title><content type='html'>&lt;p&gt;Online PR in the form of website and ezine article placement can be a great way to build your personal brand.

Open your short introduction with a hook. Connect with your audience with where they are now. Ask a few questions in just a few sentences to pull them in.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;2. Include a benefit or two for following your how-to suggestions, your solutions, or tips.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;3. Make all of your paragraphs less than three or four sentences. People online will turn away when they see a long paragraph. They want their information short and useful.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;4. Write an article that serves your audience, not you. When they see your ideas and how to's, they will respect your as the savvy expert, and be more likely to look at your signature file and even visit your web site.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;5. Write a number of solutions for a particular problem. Online readers want numbered tips or how to's. This format is easy to read and gives a lot of specific information fast.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;6. Write a tip with a consistent format. Start each tip with a command--do this. Follow it by the advantages of doing that action or show the consequences of not doing it. In your third point include some resources such as books to read, teleclasses to attend, or web sites to visit.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;7. Leverage each article to make two or more new ones with little effort..

The possibilities are endless.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;8. Focus on only one topic per articles. If you don't your article will wander around and your reader will wander away.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;9. Include under each article a 5-7 line signature file. Include your name, your concept-marketing tag, your web and email, and your local and toll-free number. 80% of sales are made from the 800 numbers. Always include one free offer to draw people to your web site.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;10. End your article with another three or four line conclusion repeating the benefits and great results you'll get if you follow the article's tips.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;When you write a thoughtful article, you will get noticed and realize not only new free targeted visitors to your site, but sell much more of your products and services.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Judy Cullins ©2004 All Rights Reserved.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Judy Cullins, 20-year Book and Internet Marketing Coach works with small business people who want to make a difference in people's lives, build their credibility and clients, and make a consistent life-long income.

Yes! You are the answer to viral marketing.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;This marketing strategy costs only your time, your commitment and discipline to produce well written articles with information people are seeking. You are an expert. Share your expertise and build a following for your knowledge while creating a market for your offerings online!&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Honestly, it doesn’t matter if you are on a music or parenting site. We all browse through websites for advice and articles that will solve our life problems, explain life’s mysteries, make our lives easier, less cluttered, and show us how to be more successful in relationships and business. We stumble across articles that help us, that answer our questions.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Have you ever found an article that when you finish reading it, you have this sudden feeling of “rightness?” After experiencing a writer’s viewpoint, you understand something that baffled you. When a writer “clicks” with the reader, it is a reflex for the reader to want to know more about the author. Reader automatically searches for more writings by the author. Why? The author answered something for you!&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Articles truly are the most powerful marketing tool you can use to sell yourself as a business.   Power?  Yes!  Marketing Power.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Online articles allow you to market yourself as knowledgeable, helpful, and consistent and willing to take the time to share what you know to friends you haven’t met yet. This is power to develop relationships on-line. Through articles we can develop friendships, business contacts, customers, and online credibility. There is no need to “sell” yourself or your business within the article. Simply share your knowledge, your thoughts and ideas.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Selling occurs outside the article in the “resource box.” A great deal has been written on how to sell within the “resource box.” What exactly does this little blurb of information about the author provide the reader? The resource box allows the reader to know the author on a more personal note. Being able to identify with the author’s role as single mom or work from home dad is a powerful human connector!&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;You create an image of the author but want to know if the image holds, so you click to visit their website or subscribe to receive their free e-mail course, maybe even download of their latest e-book. Each of these clicks brings you closer to the author. You feel connected and will remember them.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;A single encounter with an author online doesn’t usually make an immediate impact but after the second or third time you read yet another of this same author’s articles found on yet another website. You take notice. You realize this is a person to look up!&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Just think about this.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Finding a great article that explains multi-level marketing, affiliate programs, baking home-made bread or how to potty train your resistance 3 year old can be a literal bright spot in your day! You open your mailbox and a friend has sent you a poem or story that had been forwarded to them. That in a nutshell is viral marketing.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Over time you will notice websites, article banks and e-zines publishing articles by these same authors that have already helped you in some way. You mentally filed their name and maybe even their website to back of your mind as a positive. You find security in reading their latest article because you feel you already know that author on some level.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;So if you share great stories, articles, poems, writings with friends and customers online then you already know the power of words to influence and change lives. It can be a very overwhelming. The thought of writing for others to read can be scary. The joy comes in having someone send you an email or subscribe to your newsletter because you helped them with one of your articles. It is an important step in working from home. Developing a series of articles to help others to meet whatever challenges face them day to day…that is the goal and you will suddenly realize you are marketable.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Just as a musician has to strum their first chord before they can play in a band. The first step is the hardest but with practice you will see the power in your skills to share information others need or want.
