"Don't make coming up with unique contnet any harder than it has to be...anyone can write 3-4 articles per hour using this method."

Writing articles for increased search engine ranking and online branding is a strategic move that many online entrepreneurs, marketers, and search engine optimization experts have been employing for years.

But if you don't have time to do the work yourself or the funds to hire a bunch of specialists, this article will give you a few shortcut tips to success with article marketing.

First and foremost - be fast. Write fast, type fast, submit fast. If you labor over every word, punctuation and spelling mistake you'll take all day to write an 800 word article. But if you can type as fast as you can think - write without editing - and take a quick run over your work at the end (not during), you should be able to polish off a few 600-800 word articles in less than an hour.

No excuses.

So don't sit there and say, "I can't do that..." You most certainly can.

In fact, after a few practice runs I'll bet you find yourself churning out 4- 5 articles an hour and still have time to submit them to the article directories with your time-saving submission software!

Speed is of utmost importance to the solo work-at-home entrepreneur. There are always so many other tasks, so you can't afford to waste time over this one aspect of internet marketing.

Your articles don't have to win awards after all. They just need to be useful to other webmasters, free of blatant spelling mistakes and informative for the end user (the reader who will eventually be digesting your articles). 

Still muttering excuses? Don't do it to yourself. My husband - whom when I met him could only type with two fingers and didn't read much to boot (he's a do-er not a read-er) has tried my methods on writing articles over the last few months and if he can do it, anyone can!

Here are a few tips from the article writing trenches: the big secret to writing articles quickly is to not think - I mean just don't sit there staring at your computer monitor and thinking about what you'll write and how you'll word it and what the headline will be, etc. Just start writing - edit it later.

Discovering What to Write About for Your Niche

If you're promoting a website that you don't have profound knowledge in you might be a little stumped for article topics. Don't sweat it. Head over to an article directory, type in your top level keyword for your niche in the search box and enjoy the wealth of topic ideas that are returned.

You need to understand that most of the research online has already been done for you - you just have to figure out how to find it and what to do with it once you do!

Your task, in article marketing, is to be an article re-writer. Every article topic imaginable has already been written (more or less) you simply need to digest the knowledge and let it fly out your fingertips in your own words.

Article marketing really is that simple.

Remember you've got to be quick at this, 400-800 word long articles, written in every day language (imagine talking to a friend or writing a letter about your topic to an associate and keep the easy to understand style).
