The Wrong Way to Write Articles
The wisest tips and suggestions on how you can improve your
writing abilities for the web has been constantly discussed and
explained in most articles. But avoiding the common pitfalls in
writing web articles is the cleverest.
If after you submitted your articles to a handful of publishers
and still did not generate the traffic you need, then maybe its
time to check if you are committing the common pitfalls.
Here is a list of the most common overlooked pitfalls you and
other writers commit.
1. Remember you are writing articles, content-rich, informative
and useful articles, NOT SOLO ADS. Writing an obvious advert is
a major turn-off for most publishers. How will you know if you
are writing an advert? If your article lacks useful information,
sounds like a sales pitch when you read them aloud and you
inserted your link outside of the resource box, midway through
the article that means your article is a blatant ADVERT. Do not
even imagine your article being published to any of the
publication and newsletter.
2. If website links outside of the resource boxes are a
general-no-no to publishers, what more other links that of your
affiliates. Be sure that your article is free of any website
links, except for minor instances that it is needed to give
additional information, but the rest should weblink free article.
3. Incorrect spellings and other grammatical errors are eye
sores to publishers and readers. Do not let this happen, as you
would be negatively branded and would be considered as not
someone to be trusted. If spelling checks are needed by all
means do it.
4. Resource boxes are spaces for basic information about you,
your business and contact details including your website link.
Do not put over-hyped promotional words, sentences on your
resource box. This may become a turning point for publishers who
decided not to take your article instead but well in fact
impressed by the first and middle parts of your article.
If these have been your ways before, better stop, think, reflect
and act on it so you can make use better of your writing ability
and knowledge.
Now, how to act on it? Aside from avoiding the common pitfalls
discussed above, some suggestions for each aspect of your
article should be taken into your consideration when starting to
write.
