subject: Selling Your Articles The Right Way [print this page] I see so many people selling their articles the wrong way. What you have to decide is if you want some extra money from articles or if you want to just do it part time and earn some extra money.
Maybe you have a job and don't have much time to devote to Internet Marketing. If you can only devote an hour or two a day to it, then writing articles may be the best option for you.
I've written an article in 15 minutes before and I know plenty of other people that have, as well. Well, let's say that it takes you 30 minutes to write an article. If you have 2 hours to devote a day, that's 4 articles that you can write a day.
You can make some pretty good money for only two hours of work. You hopefully be able to get at least get $10 for them. You could make quite a bit more than that, if you have a good reputation for delivering great articles.
That's at least $20 an hour for your work. Most people don't make more than $20 an hour. You may be able to write faster than that. Every person is different and write at different speeds.
Another reason that I like the strategy of writing articles and selling them is that it's something that can be finished right away. A big problem that Internet Marketers have is that they don't finish projects. They start something and go on to something else, then to something else.
When you write articles, you should be able to finish them right after you start one. If you don't have the attention span or can't cut out the distractions long enough to write an article, you probably don't have much of a chance at making it online.
Make sure to write quality articles because your reputation is very important. Make sure the spelling and grammar are good and make sure that they are very informative.
If people like your articles, they will keep coming back to you, over and over again. Repeat business is very important to any online business, it makes things a lot easier.
There are many great places to sell articles. Among the best boards to sell articles are Digitalpoint and the Warriorforum and here especially the special Offer forum. You can see how Warriors launch WSO's for articles. You should be able to find plenty of people to write for. Posting on other boards might get you more customers but based on our experience stick with the big and well-known boards - they smaller ones dont have that much visitors and traffic!
