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

I know, I’ve said it hundred times. Quality content on a site is a must when it comes to a successful Internet marketing business. Articles are great for providing the information site visitors are looking for. They also provide benefits for you.

The biggest benefit an article can give you is a top ranking in the search engines. Of course this is based on the keywords and phrases you use and the relevancy to your site. Articles also build trust and authority that brings more traffic to your site.

Another great way articles can bring traffic is via viral marketing. A reader may find your article great and informative and pass it on to a friend who then passes it on to their friends. More commonly this would be referred to as web 2.0 or social bookmarking. There are a bunch of social bookmarking sites where people can easily bookmark your site for others to see and increase your traffic volume. This will also bring increased sales and more money in your pocket.

So now I’ve established why articles are so crucial to a site’s success but there’s a problem, not a lot of people like writing articles.
A lot of Internet or Affiliate marketers would rather spend their time doing something else. Unless you’re well established and have the money to spend, you don’t have the resources to use to have a large number of article writers for you. You also don’t want to just copy and paste an article to your site. This is totally frowned upon and will definitely get you banned from the search engines.

So what other options do I have?

Well for starters you can use free articles. The first place to find free articles is on the Internet or public domain. These articles are intended to be given away free so you can do whatever you want with them. You can place your name on them, put it in a newsletter, submit to article directories, etc. Don’t forget to choose articles that are relevant to your site. To make it easier for you, I have a bunch of PLR articles here you can download.

The only bad thing about public domain articles is that they are free to anyone and many people are using them. You site does need to be original so you’ll need to rewrite the articles to make them unique.

An additional way to get free articles is allowing other people to submit articles to your site. This should not replace including your own articles but only adding to them. These user submitted articles would include the author’s resource box which will take the reader to their site if they click on their link and you don’t want all your articles to do this. You could also submit articles to other sites to bring more traffic to you.

To truly benefit from articles, you need to have original articles. There are plenty of article writers out there who offer their services for a minimal fee. This way you can have quality articles that include your keywords and phrases to attract traffic to your site without the hassle of writing them yourself.

The investment you make for these articles would be worthwhile because you could use them for all the benefits you could offer. You hold copyrights to them and you will be able to use them anyway you want. As your articles help you in building your business and your site, you will have more articles to write and maybe then you won’t have second thoughts about articles.
