Article Writing And Content For Your Website

How Do I Get Others to Write Content for Me?
By Robert Plank

Not many people are gifted writers; even those with some writing ability are occasionally afflicted with writers block. This presents problems when you intend to get enough content to fill up a paid membership site since you might often get stuck, bored or frustrated.

Here are three simple things that if done, might just solve your problem.

You have to elevate user comments and reviews into full posts. Find a good columnist to write some of the content for you. Generally make sure that your content creation is outsourced in order to provide variety.

Simply looking at user comments is one of the easiest ways I use to free content for my member ship site. This membership sites have been hosted inside blogs. That trick is make posts and look for good comments or important questions that that may be left by users in the comments section.

These impressive comments I simply copy, paste and credit the person who made the comment in the first place by setting him/her as the author.

This means that I get review posts made by other people free but which will prove useful to the other readers of blog. This should however be done sparingly but if your membership site leaves very good responses’ or insightful comments, think about the benefits of molding that comment into a new entire article.

You should also consider making those people who consistently leave a lot of good comments into columnists. Although many people do not know this one advantage of using WordPress is that it is possible to set access levels for different users hence regular customer can be elevated to “contributors”.

Whenever this contributors wish to make a new post, they submit them to you for approval and editing after which the post become live.

Article writers can also be of great help in a situation when you have exhausted most of the available options for getting content for your site.

However you should only hire an article writer when the customers really like his content otherwise I will advise you to instead make a voice recording of what you want to written and the pay a transcriptionist to create the article for you.

After all Finding people with an ability to talk on the phone isn’t half as hard as getting a good writer!

I often use the above three methods in having my membership site’s content written for me by other people.

Take advantage of a regular writer who leaves many good comments by making him your columnist through WordPress’ higher access levels and outsource your article writing and transcription work.

What About Blogging? Can I Make Any Money Blogging?

How To Start To Make Money By Blogging

Can you really make money just by blogging? Yep, but like any business it does take effort and time to become well established.

Blogging was originally a form of online journaling, but these days it is so much more. So first you need to understand too that there’s a difference between blogging as a writing style, and using blog software to create websites.

Using FREE blog software like Blogger Or WordPress, to create websites is one way to start to make money by blogging.

When you sell products of your own with a blog, or promote other people’s products to earn sales commissions, you may not neccessarily be writing in a blogging style to do so. You can of course, but you can also create a “regular” website by using quick and easy blog software.

The most common form of making money with blogging is usually much more personal though. The writer creates content on a blog, and that content is frequently written in a casual, “blog-like” style.

This personal touch creates a unique atmosphere on the blog and that in turn creates a unique following of readers. Once established, the writer who creates the blog content can often recommend products to readers, and many of those readers will buy based on those recommendations.

This form of blogging puts a personal touch into the world of business, so it helps faceless corporate entities and somewhat famous individuals seem more real. And that can generate great profits.

There are three primary approaches to make money with blogging:

1. Recommend Others’ Affiliate Products - Once you have a loyal base of readers who like your writing style, enjoy the things you write each day, or connect to you on some level you’ll be able to start making product recommendations to them. And by recommending products which you earn sales commissions from, you earn money each time one of your readers buys a product based on your recommendations.

2. Sell Your Own Products or Services - This approach is popular with service based professionals, software programmers, and book authors. If you are a certified accountant for example, then blogging will help you establish yourself as an expert in your field and this can lead to you getting more clients.

If you write books or create software, the approach works the same. By writing content on a related blog you will build your reputation and readership, and that will naturally lead to readers buying your books and software.

3. Sell Advertising Space – Some people start blogging about topics that interest them, that they are passionate about. They may not have a specific professional skill they’re trying to promote and they may have no products for sale, but they’re interested enough in a given topic to write about it frequently and well.

In these cases readership and reputation also grow over time, and the person writing the blog is able to earn money from selling advertising space in key locations on that blog.

In all of these cases you need to build a reputation and audience. New magazines and TV shows don’t often launch with a ready made audience in place, and neither do new blogs.

There are exceptions to every rule of course, and you’ll probably come across success stories where people were able to get large amounts of readers to their blogs fairly quickly. Just keep in mind that this is not the norm.

Usually you have to work very hard for several months before you’ll start seeing progress. As time goes by however, if you’ve kept working diligently you should start seeing some excellent income.

But if you don’t start — it’s pretty well guaranted that you will not make any money. Start improving your income online by setting up a blog and writing regular posts.

Later on, I will go into detail about the different methods of making money and exactly how to implement them.

Remember, if you do nothing, you will earn nothing . . . so get started now. You can do it!
