Ways to increase traffic by writing articles
Writing articles is the quickest and easiest way to get a stampede of people to your website who will recognize your name by your signature and adhere to what you recommend.
Most people reason that finding information in articles, forums, and discussion groups is a primary method of getting good information, and most likely they were experts on that topic, and if they were experts, then the products and services that they sold or recommended. they were probably good.
6 ways to start writing articles:
1. Get a notepad and pen, and just brainstorm ideas. The best source for an article is usually experience or knowledge that you have gained in the past. If you are completely lost, read some articles in other people's ezines or websites. Once you get started, you will come up with a lot of ideas. Write down each one. If you think of a good title that includes a keyword about the article, write it down as well and include the keyword in the first sentence or paragraph.
2. There are several ways of working for writers, depending on their personalities. You may want to sort and organize your points first by outlining the information you plan to include or the points you intend to make. Then all you have to do is go back and "develop" the points, adding useful data or links to more information.
Or you can be a natural teacher and write as if you are explaining the topic to the reader in person. One method may work best for one type of article and the other for another type.
3. Add "personality" to your writing. Share something of yourself with your readers, make your writing uniquely yours. It's okay to read other people's ezines and articles to see what might interest people and come up with your own ideas, but don't follow someone else's pattern. People want to feel like they know you, your knowledge, and your personality. This is what builds loyalty.
If it fits your theme, don't be afraid to mention your product or service and give the URL or email address, but DO NOT write a "glorified ad" and call it an article! That may offend an editor and they won't even consider your articles in the future.
4. Once you have finished writing your article, read it out loud, preferably to someone else who will ask you questions if you do not understand a point.
5. Run a spell checker! If you have Microsoft Word or something similar, run the grammar checker as well. Have someone else review it for you. Even professional proofreaders will tell you that they are trying to get someone else to review their own writing, because it is almost impossible to detect your own mistakes.
6. When you have finished your article and made the necessary changes, you should submit it to as many article directories as you can. There are also payment software and services that will ship for you, but you may want to wait until you have successfully written a few articles before choosing to pay.
