How To Get The Most Out Of Your Articles

By: Marc Eglon

Content is King or so says the maxim. In online marketing, your site content forms the foundation of your business so indeed, this tenet has never been truer. It is your business to provide a service, trading information, so it is imperative that you consistently provide content that is informative, accurate, current and original.

Writing is both a skill and an art and initially you may find it difficult to create content that meets these criteria. Sooner or later though, you will find that you have more to write about and actually have the ability to convey your thoughts in text.

Everything you do will be judged and it is important that you maintain the highest standard of writing that you can. To assist in this end, it is perfectly acceptable to use the same (or similar) content in each sphere in which you write. This means that your efforts go a long way and you effectively have to publish less material, less frequently, so you can focus on maintaining the high standards.

There are several areas in which you should routinely publish your content:
1. Your Website
2. Your Blog
3. Your e-zine or email marketing
4. Article Directories
5. Reports and eBooks
6. Hard-copy brochures

When you write an article, adapt it slightly so that it is suitable for each publishing medium. For submission to directories an article should be approximately 300-700 words long, but a blog post or email article should be slightly shorter and more succinct, so you'll need to edit your text whilst retaining all the important points and keywords.

The main challenge is to write original content. Unless you have a unique and colorful writing flair to infuse your own character into your articles, you may find it difficult to stand out in a world of regurgitated content, where everyone writes about the same material at the same time in the same way, plagiarizing one another in bland mixture of information.

To overcome these challenges, there are several tools to generate novel content:

1. Employ a ghost writer [check out e-lance]
2. Get content from article directories
3. Get content from offline sources: newspapers, books and magazines
4. Re-write material that you've used before

Wherever your content comes from, there is one great tool I use everyday to submit thousands of articles to hundreds of directories and I cannot recommend it highly enough: Spontent's JetSpinner. This allows you to take a single seed article and by adding synonyms and alternative phrases, you can instantly generate hundreds of novel articles to publish as you choose. JetSpinner really is one of the greatest productivity tools I've ever come across in quality web publishing and internet marketing. It's not until you use a tool such as this do you realize that you've been operating in first gear whilst others are leaving you for dead. It's time to step it up a gear and start coasting in the fast lane.
