Eight Article Writing Mistakes

By Brent Sweet

The best thing you can do to bring targeted visitors to your site besides ranking number one on Google is to write effective articles. There are several mistakes people make though when they go to do this, and it renders their articles useless.

The way to have your articles distributed everywhere is to NOT do the following:

Number One: Spelling and grammar errors. Use spell check it is simple, and it will increase the distribution of your article.

Number Two: Too much Hype. Dont brag and try to promote and advertise in articles, save that for press releases. Articles are to contribute information to the internet. Save that for your bio or resource box.

Number Three: Inform the reader. If you don't know what you are talking about choose a different topic. People don't read to find out what you don't know.

Number Four: Pick a topic. So many people write articles with several topics. Write one article per subject. Don't write a business opportunity article that also contains information about losing weight.

Number Five: Make a headline that pulls your reader in, not just another headline or title to your subject.

Number Six: Do not purchase articles, and do not steal articles. Write your own unique articles, this way people may actually publish it on their website!

Number Seven: Keep it simple when it comes to your bio box. Put a few links in there and keep it to one topic.

Number Eight: Blasting duplicate articles all over the internet. Spin your articles a few times at the very least so that they are different, or pay a service to do this for you.
