How to Avoid Poor Writing Habits and Keep Your Articles Lookin' Good

While beauty may be in the eye of the beholder, there are just some things that we all can agree are undesirable. For instance, imagine you are looking to buy a new home. You walk in the house for the first time with your real estate agent and you see light fixtures hanging, windows broken, holes in the roof, and leaky faucets. This house isn't just a fixer upper... it's UGLY!

The same thing can be said about articles. While it's fine to have some rough patches in your first draft, an article that is submitted for review with thin, spammy, keyword stuffed, promotional content is just plain ugly!

Write Show-Stopping Articles

There are several things you can do to make sure your articles are "ready for their close-up."

1. Make sure that your articles are one of a kind.

Your article should be offering a new piece of information to the market each time. If you're not doing this, your audience will begin to look elsewhere for their information.

2. Make sure your articles are easy to read.

This includes using proper grammar, and balancing keywords. Read the article out loud to yourself before you submit it to make sure it reads naturally.

3. Make sure your articles are not self-serving.

Remember, the article body is where you GIVE information to your reader. The resource box is the appropriate place to TAKE your reader to your link, or give them more information about your business.

Each "good" article you write will help you to attract readers and build credibility. Don't let an ugly duckling get in your way to success! Use quality checks to ensure your articles provide quality information, read naturally, and give.
