I Hate Writing Articles - Isn’t There An Easier Way?

Owning and maintaining an internet business requires that you have fresh content articles on a regular basis — preferably daily. Articles quench the thirst for information and knowledge that lures your prospects to your site.

So what are your options if you simply hate to write?

Well, for starters if you hate writing articles and you can’t afford to hire someone reputable to write for you, you can get free articles. The first place to look is in the public domain. You won’t have problems with copyright infringement if your material is available in the public domain.

Public domain articles have expired copyrights. In other words, when a work is copyrighted, that copyright has an expiration date. Copyrights can be extended but when the author dies, sometimes they don’t get extended and actually expire. When that happens, they end up in the public domain. So, these are writings that were once published. And, in that light, the writing should be very good.

The downside to public domain articles is that anyone can use them and your competition may have done so already. You may have to edit them a bit to place your keywords and keyword phrases in the appropriate places. Also, make sure that if you use public domain articles they pertain to your niche topic.

Another way to get free articles is to allow other sites which have similar content to submit articles to your site. Most bloggers today do utility posting which is exactly this. They use content from other blogs and give the blog a trackback (link).

Now, some people might think WAIT A MINUTE - I don’t want to put links to other sites on my site! But, if that’s what you’re thinking, you’re a bit behind the times, I’m afraid. If you’ve ever heard the term Web 2.0 that’s really what it’s all about. Even Google knows this and is now serving up pages with the most popularity based on the number of links to and from a site and, of course, a lot of other things too. But social populariaty is REALLY important!!!

So, forget about keeping all the links to yourself and start sharing as much as you can.

But, here’s the gold nugget in all of this and why I’m writing to you today. There are also a lot of article sharing services popping up online. I recently joined one and not only do they send my “unique” articles to about 700 sites each time I submit one, but I also subscribe to the service and get as many unique articles each day as I need. And, you don’t have to write articles if you only want to receive articles.

This article was submitted to them today - minus a few paragraphs added here. Over the next few weeks, you will see below, in the comments sections, pingbacks to blogs that have posted my unique article on their blog. In fact, you can check out my article on Niche Affiliate Marketing to see how many comments I have from one article post I sibmitted three days ago. That one article gave me about 400 new links according to stats in Google.

This is very powerful stuff folks so pay attention!

If you’re a bit skeptical and also want to learn what it takes to write your own articles, you might want to opt-in to this great Stealth Marketing Course that has some great insights into how to write good content.

Now, you’re probably wondering why I keep saying “unique” articles. Well, the service I use has a special way of making every article you submit unique when it’s delivered to the many directories. I can’t tell you how they do it but if you decide to join, you will also be required to keep it a secret just like me. So go take a look at what they’re doing. If you can start submitting articles regularly, you’ll really see a boost in your stats. And, if you don’t like to write, well just join up and get fresh content delivered to you daily.

Hey, it’s not expensive and it’s the best way I know of to share links and get unique content on a regular basis. This makes it so easy for me to post to my blog sites now. I choose the categories, I choose how many articles I want each day and I choose whether or not to actually post them. After all, as we discussed earlier, not everyone can write well! Crappy content gets the boot!

Just one more thing I also want to point out as far as where to get good content for your articles. There are many sites online that offer what are called Private Label Articles that you can publish and take credit for yourself. You can even rewrite them if you like. In fact, that’s how this article came about. I have no problem writing, but by using a PLR article to start with, the ideas flow easier and I don’t have to come up with all original content.
