Is There An Easier Way Than Writing Articles?

December 2, 2008 by Tom Lindstrom · Leave a Comment 

If you have an online home business you will need lots of content, and this means writing articles regularly.A site must have lots of content that is fresh, interesting and useful to the readers, because it is imperative to keep up with the competition and your site must stand out from the rest.There is one dilemma though, not many people like writing articles and would rather do other marketing things instead.

So, what are the options?

1. Free articles.
This is an option if you cannot afford to hire people to write for you. Look for public domain articles, and you will not have the problem of copyright infringement. Public domain articles are freely given to the public for public use.You can do whatever you want with it.Use
articles that are relevant to your niche.

There is a major downside to this.Because these articles are free, everyone else will have access to them as well.When many people post the exact same articles on their sites there will be duplicate content which is not a good thing, to use these articles you would need to edit them by placing keywords and keyword phrases in them to make them relevant and suit your site.

2. Guest writing.
If you have a website that gets a fair amount of traffic, you can accept guest articles on your site. This means that people write an article for you in exchange for a link back to their site.You will get a unique article, and the writer will get full credit for his/her work by having a resource box at the end of the article with information about the writer and a website address to their site.

3. Purchasing PLR articles.
You can purchase PLR (private label rights) articles.For $20 per month you will get 30 articles that you can post on your site. I recommend small editing before posting them on your site.

Here is the link for more information: The Niche Article Club

4. Hire an article writer.
This is a strategy that I personally use once in a while. Sometimes you need new insights when your own writing starts circling around the same things.This can get boring for the readers.You can pay a “ghost writer” to write articles for you.You decide about what the article is about, and in a few days you will get a unique article in your email written just for you.The article writer I recommend is Jeff Schuman.
