• SEO Article Writing: How To Write A Keyword Rich Title

    It IS possible to craft a keyword rich title that is useful to your human readers.

    So, how can I get my keywords in my article title?

    Is it possible to do SEO article writing and still craft a title that is useful to a human reader? Yes!

    Most definitely it is possible, but this is an area where folks tend to stumble. When someone hears that it’s a good idea to use their keywords in their titles and that publishers even appreciate a keyword rich title, it is very easy to get hyper focused on getting the keywords in to the point where:

    • The title ceases to make sense.
    • The title ceases to reflect what the article is about.
    • The title no longer conveys an impression of quality.

    We’ve already covered what NOT to do with keywords and your title, but in this post we’ll discuss how to use your keywords in your titles…the right way!

  • Article Submission Guidelines: 9 Silly Grammar Mistakes That Can Get Your Article Declined

    Are your articles making the best impression possible?

    Are your articles making the best impression possible?

    Following these article submission guidelines can help you get your articles accepted by more publishers!

    How’s that for a reason to ensure that your articles are free of major grammar and spelling errors?

    I just want to be clear–when we speak of writing grammatically correct articles, we are not referring to writing in an uptight,  formal way or strictly adhering to every little grammar rule in the English language.

    Your articles can be conversational and relaxed in tone if you like. For example, many writers deliberately end sentences in prepositions (something we were taught in school never to do!) to write in a way that people actually speak.

    That is fine–we are not referring to issues like prepositions at the end of sentences or comma placement.

    This post is about the major grammar and writing errors that can lead to your articles being declined by publishers.

  • Article Marketing Tip: Who Is Your Online Writing Role Model?

    Who is your online writing role model?

    Who is your online writing role model?

    I have an article marketing tip for you: If you don’t have one already, find an online writing role model.

    Why?

    When you embark on an article marketing campaign, you will be doing a lot of writing, writing, and more writing!

    Not only will you be crafting articles on a regular basis, but you will also be trying to create higher and higher quality articles that readers and publishers will appreciate.

    You will need to get into the habit of writing on your topic in a way that is interesting, clear, and helpful. You will also need to learn how to write on your topic from a multitude of angles. That is the essence of article marketing-write on your topic from every angle possible, and you will have an endless supply of articles.

    Easier said than done, eh?

    That’s why I think it is tremendously helpful to have a writing role model. And not just any writing role model, but an online writing role model. Writing for print or any other type of media is quite different than writing online.

  • Article Submission Software: Does It Really Work?

    article submission software--does it work?

    It's kind of like a coffee shop vs. a coffee maker.

    So, you’ve been submitting articles manually for a while and are getting tired of it–I don’t blame you! Maybe you’ve heard about article submission software and are wondering if it’s right for you.

    First off, I’d like to clarify the difference between article submission software and an online article submission service.

    Article submission software is something that you buy, install on your computer and use, sort of like you would buy and use a coffee maker.

    An online article submission service (such as SubmitYOURArticle.com) is a web-based membership site, so there is no installation involved. The the work is largely done for you, sort of like a coffee shop.

    So, you can imagine: coffee maker vs. Starbucks.

    Okay, maybe not the perfect comparison–nothing wrong with a coffee maker. It gets the job done if you only want a few cups of joe.

    But what about article submission software–does it get the job done?
