[EzineArticles] Basic Article Templates for Expert Authors

Basic Article Templates for Expert Authors Satisfy Readers with Easy-to-Read Content Internet audiences are ravenous. When compared to printed publications, the majority of online readers consume content at alarming speeds. As an Expert Author, it's important to deliver original, informative content in a succinct, stylized format that will compel readers forward. Try these writing tips and basic article templates so your readers can easily digest your quality articles. Write a Direct Introduction Be direct and engaging in your article's introduction as well as be mindful of insatiable skimmers (e.g., Internet readers who consume articles at incredible speeds in their quest to find relevant content that benefits them). In your first sentence, provide a compelling analogy relevant to your article's topic. In the last sentence of your introduction, provide your main idea and how it benefits the reader. TIP: If your reader can't find your point quickly or finds it unoriginal, the reader will become bored, distracted, or frustrated and click away. 5 Basic Article Templates Readers Love Ordered List Template: Use a numbered or ordered list when you're providing a step-by-step process or when listing in order of importance. Keep list descriptions around 50 words and don't force points to get a "rounded" list, e.g., add a filler point to reach 10 tips. Ordered list styles include "top 10" lists, "how to" procedures, "best of" lists, etc.   Bulleted List Template: Use a bulleted or unordered list when order is not essential. Unordered lists provide a quick and easy format that allows readers to get a bird's eye view of the article and gather the information they need. Keep bullets short and to the point. Unordered list styles include "introduction to" articles, options, checklists, etc.   FAQ Template: Use a simple Q&A or FAQ format by bolding the questions and then providing a succinct explanation or discussion point below the question. Keep questions short (i.e., don't span over multiple lines), non-promotional, and ensure the questions are relevant to your audience.   Bricklayer Template: Use bolded headers, like mortar, between the sections (i.e., the bricks) of your article. Keep section headers short, but compelling like you would the article's title. Write succinct, relevant, and descriptive information driving the main focus of the section as well as tie it into the main point of the article. (Click here to see an example of this style in action.)   Combination Template: Use a combination of any of the above to suit your own article writing style. For example, try a combination of the Bricklayer Template and the bulleted list (this post is an example of how those formats can be combined easily). Keep an eye on your article length by targeting your word count between 400-700 words. Write a Motivating Conclusion Your conclusion should succinctly recap your main points, but more importantly provide a thought-provoking piece of information that gets the reader thinking. Successful articles are less about the regurgitation of information and more about getting the reader to take the information they have gained and apply it for their own benefit. In doing so, the reader will want to know more information about you as well as your website or blog. The key to all of these styles is to be as direct as you possibly can in your articles - don't make readers guess or wade through subtext to achieve their desired information. Prepare your articles using these basic article templates and tips to ensure readers are satisfied with easy-to-read, informative content. Join the discussion!

[EzineArticles] Reminders Article Template

Reminders Article Template Diversify Your Article Inventory with This Article Template What's the one thing that sets you, as an Expert Author, apart from non-experts with a general interest in your niche? Answer: Your Brain The human brain is a beautiful thing. As an expert faced with any kind of scenario in your niche, your brain has thousands or even tens of thousands of related memories from which to pull data and solve problems. Much of this data has been stored away in your long-term memory. Your long-term memory stores data via repetition, performing a task in a particular manner, sleep, etc. Given the amount of experience you have gathered in your niche, you may have picked up a few tricks to help you remember a procedure, an important matter, and much more. Someone with less experience doesn't have that data, but they want it! You can share your own memory strengthening techniques in your niche through high-quality, original articles with the Reminders Article Template. This template gets you thinking about the best way to leave reminders for yourself and others. Here's how: Identify a scenario with a commonly forgotten simple solution. Think about how you remember things yourself. Do you write things down on a piece of paper or do you leave it to your memory to remember?   Explain processes or options of how to remember the best solution when that scenario comes up. For example, do you have a mnemonic device or some other nugget of knowledge to share with others to help their memory?   Outline how the reminders will help and what they will help avoid.   Summarize the reminder again. Reiterate the points that you've already shared in the article and conclude your thoughts. Exercise your brain by thinking of your own memory strengthening techniques and share them in your next set of high-quality original articles. Like our article templates?

EzineArticles Member Endorsement "I love the templates" I find I love the templates and have a file with copies of all of them. Sometimes I go through them and put Post-it notes on individual templates with ideas/titles/themes - ready for possible development into an article ... or sometimes not. But that's OK, because it often stirs a memory or fits somehow with an opinion I hold, or an idea that's still deep within my 'think tank.'

[EzineArticles] An Insider's Look at Premium

An Insider's Look at Premium Discover What Premium Subscribers Already Know Have you ever thought about becoming a Premium Membership subscriber? Most Expert Authors have at one time or another. Premium brings with it the valuable benefits of faster turnaround and response times, improved review quality, increased flexibility, and more data upon which to make article writing and marketing decisions. One of the major reasons most members don't subscribe is that they're unsure about how they'd put those benefits to good use. Premium is a significant investment, and not knowing what to do (and what not to do) can negatively impact its value. Here's a quick guide to getting the most out of a Premium Membership subscription: Take Advantage of Improved Speed with High-Quality Articles - Having your articles reviewed in less than one business day by our most senior Editors can get your articles out there working for you days earlier than without Premium. Take advantage of this competitive advantage by submitting only quality articles. Or if you're still learning, use this benefit to speed up that time-consuming back-and-forth editing process.   Ask a Lot of Questions - Premium gives you same business day access to our Member Support Team. If you have questions or concerns, they'll be addressed in a flash! Take advantage of this fact by asking as many questions as you'd like. The answers could make a huge difference in the success of your article writing and marketing efforts.   Schedule Your Articles' Release - As a subscriber, you can schedule your articles for release at any time ... so by all means do! Write your articles in batches and then release them over time. This prevents a "dump" of new articles that could overwhelm your most loyal readers. In addition, test different days and times for publication and discover when it's best to post your articles. This is especially useful if you write for an audience outside your time zone or country.   Use Those 12 Resource Boxes - Premium Membership gives you 12 Resource Boxes instead of just 3. Use them to laser-target your ideal audience for each article. Craft them to be specific to each of your reader segments and niches. If you're an author with multiple landing pages, use them to drive readers to the most appropriate page that is relevant to your article's topic.   Review and Use Your Top Performing Keywords - As a subscriber, you'll get access to the top 30 keywords used to find each of your articles. Review them frequently and then integrate the top performers into each article you write. And remember, those keywords will continue to be refined over time, so pay attention to the keywords that drew in readers and further integrate those keywords into your next article. Eventually, you'll know the precise keywords to use in any particular niche.   Tap Into the Data - All Premium members receive monthly article performance reports. Use this data to determine which topics are your top performers and then write more articles in those particular topic areas. Also pay attention to what doesn't work so you can avoid writing more articles like that in the future. This process helps refine your topic selection over time and aids you in discovering your perfect niche. A Premium Membership subscription could make all the difference in the success of your article writing campaigns. And knowing how to put Premium's benefits to good use can greatly enhance the value of that subscription. However, please note that Premium isn't for everybody, and it doesn't buy you editorial favoritism. Are you ready to gain the incredible benefits of a Premium membership? And are you ready to put those benefits to good use? If so, click here to sign up today! It's quick and easy and your subscription is backed by a 100% satisfaction guarantee. If you don't like it for any reason, simply let us know and we'll give you a full refund. To Your Article Writing Success & Passion!

[EzineArticles] Smart Keyword Usage Tips

Smart Keyword Usage Tips Placement, Moderation, and Integration By: Vanessa, Editorial Manager Knowing where and how to use keywords can help you focus your article topic as well as increase your searchability, but understanding keyword usage can be tricky. Keyword usage is a little like cholesterol. Good cholesterol will help ensure your health and quality of life, whereas too much bad cholesterol will build up and wreak all kinds of havoc on your health. Good keyword usage will help increase your exposure, whereas excessive keyword usage will build up and wreak all kinds of havoc on your credibility and potentially lower your ability to be seen. It's all about finding balance: a healthy article diet of original, informative content, knowing which bad keyword practices will wreak havoc, and integrating good keyword strategies into your efforts. Let's say you're a cardiologist who wants to educate readers on cholesterol and heart disease prevention. You do a little keyword research and find the phrase "what is cholesterol" has an incredible search rate, but fairly moderate competition. Instead of jamming the phrase in the middle of the sentence and bolding it, why not consider the following strategies that are more worthy of your credibility? Smart Keyword Placement: When used smartly, your keywords should not stand out in your article. A smart method is to integrate your keywords in the beginning of your article's title and even incorporate the keywords into relevant sub-headers that organize your articles.   Smart Keyword Moderation: Like bad cholesterol, it's okay to use keywords in small doses. Eating a fried doughnut on occasion isn't going to throw your bad cholesterol off the charts, but eating too many doughnuts can cause ill effects. Limit your keyword usage to 1 keyword for every 100 words. So a 400 word article might have a keyword naturally integrated every 100 words.   Smart Keyword Integration: While writing, you will unconsciously provide natural keywords. Search engines are getting faster and smarter about separating the wheat from the chaff (i.e., the quality content from the worthless) and they reward quality, informative content with natural keyword integration. Here is an example of unhealthy keyword placement, moderation, and integration: Cholesterol has a bad reputation, but in truth not all cholesterol is bad for your health. If you're asking yourself what is cholesterol? Let us explore what is cholesterol together. In fact there are two types: good cholesterol and bad cholesterol. Cholesterol is found in organic tissue, including your blood, and is transported by carriers in the blood called lipoproteins. That's what is cholesterol. Bad cholesterol, otherwise known as low-density lipoprotein ... This is a one way ticket to a poor user experience and poor strategies like this are not worthy of your credibility. Here's the same content, but with smarter keyword placement, moderation, and much smoother, more natural integration: (Title) What Is Cholesterol? The Effects of Good and Bad Cholesterol Cholesterol has a bad reputation, but in truth not all cholesterol is bad for your health. In fact there are two types: good cholesterol and bad cholesterol. Let's take a closer look: What Is Cholesterol? Cholesterol is found in organic tissue, including your blood, and is transported by carriers in the blood called lipoproteins. Bad cholesterol, otherwise known as low-density lipoprotein ... To discover more information on keyword practices that wreaks havoc on the health of your articles and your credibility: click here. Balanced with quality, original content, smart keyword strategies can keep your articles healthy and improve your searchability.
