The secret to writing great articles.

in #steemit7 years ago (edited)

When people are curled up in bed with a book. It can talk about scenery and feelings and pave the way for character development, but when they are reading on the internet, they’re wanting fast facts. They don’t want fluff. Just easy to understand information. That is the goal.
When you want to learn something, you want to learn it as fast as possible. Everyone looks for shortcuts so they can start applying what they’ve learned immediately. That’s why you want to be brief and to the point in articles for the web.
Tip #1.The Fastest And Easiest Way to get started.
Now, with as many tips and idea websites as there are and as many online forums, there’s no need to come up with all the content off the top of your head.
Now here’s something vitally important – you must never take another person’s words for your own. Not one sentence. Not one phrase. It’s illegal and can get you in to trouble. But you can certainly learn from their content and write your own article. Find 3 or 4 articles on your topic, read them carefully, and write your own article in your own words based on what you’ve just read.
tip# 2. Where To Find Good Info.
If I wanted to write an article on “cryptocurrency”, I’d search Google for “cryptocurrency forums” or "cryptocurrency discussion boards”. All I then do is look for what folks are talking about, read their responses and use them to help write my own article. If you find a trending product on google adsence like bitcoin, which is probably trending right now , do a search for bitcoin forums. See what kinds of questions folks are asking and write an article to answer. You can also find Frequently Asked Questions at FAQ.org and Groups.google.com. Remember, you’re keeping your article short and to the point. Use helpful tips throughout. I remember reading one article about searching for a fitness club. One of the tips went was. “In order to find the best fitness club for you, you must go out and look for one.”
Well, duh! For crying out loud, that’s idiotic, of course you have to look for one. That’s totally useless information. Steer clear of stating the very obvious. Give unique, helpful suggestions. That’s what your readers want.
tip #3 Writing Your Article Title.
Like a headline, this is what gets your audiences to decide to read your article or pass it by. People want articles with helpful tips they can use immediately. Your title must convey what you’re offering in your article. “Reaching Your Goal”
– kind of boring , making it too abstract, this could be a title for baking cakes or any number of things “ or try,
“7 Proven Steps to Reaching Any Goal That You Can Implement Right Now!”” – much better

Any way you look at it, writing articles can be a very rewarding online hobby or even business. Because, being able to quickly generate your own helpful articles is a huge PLUS in today’s world of internet marketing.
