I Hate to Write Articles – Is There An Easier Way?

Building a business online means you need to provide fresh content for your site daily. Content is still King and it really is necessary. Fresh content articles pull potential customers to your website by providing new information regularly.

But what are you going to do if you can’t or don’t want to write?

To begin, if you don’t want to hire someone to do it for you, you can obtain free articles online. Public domain articles are available for anyone to use. And, you don’t need to worry about copyright issues with public domain articles.

The public domain consists of writings, articles, books, etc. with copyrights that have expired. Original copyrights only last for a specified number of years. When the copyright isn’t extended, due to the death of an author or simply abandonment of the work, the copyright expires and it becomes available in the public domain. These are works that were once published for profit and, as such, grammar and writing is usually of a very high standard. You should check copyright laws in your country for more information.

The flipside of using public domain articles is that your competition may also be using them. But you should be able to verify this easily enough in the search engines. You may have to edit them a little in order to put your keywords and phrases in appropriately. Additionally, be sure that they pertain to your niche topic.

One of the best ways to get fresh content is to allow other websites with a similar niche to submit articles that you post on your site. It’s a common blogging tactic to create “utility posts” which consist of an intro to a post in another blog with a link to it from your blog. Bloggers are simply using good fresh content from other blogs to fulfill their content needs.

Now, you might be saying — wait a minute, I don’t want links to other sites on my site! Well, if that’s what you think, you’re a little behind the curve because that’s exactly what Web 2.0 is all about! Google knows this and is now serving up pages based primarily on their social popularity. Google weighs other parts of the site as well, but always remember that social populariaty is VERRRRY important!

So, start sharing as much as you can and forget about keeping all the links to yourself.

Here’s the best part of this article and the main reason I decided to write it. Due to Web 2.0 popularity, many services are becoming popular that help us all share articles and links. I belong to one that not only sends “unique” articles that I write to approximately 600 article directories and blog sites, but, as a subscriber, I receive as many unique articles every day as I choose. You can also subscribe to simply receive articles if you don’t wish to write.

Hey, it’s not expensive and it’s the best way I know of to share links and get unique content on a regular basis. This makes it so easy for me to post to my blog sites now. I choose the categories, I choose how many articles I want each day and I choose whether or not to actually post them. After all, as we discussed earlier, not everyone can write well! Crappy content gets the boot!

One more thing you should know — There are now many websites that offer Private Label Rights Articles that you can publish on your site. Many of them are free to join. Private label rights allow you to take credit for writing the articles. If you want, you can even rewrite all or part of them. In fact, that’s how I wrote this article. I’m pretty good at writing, but sometimes the ideas don’t come as quickly as I’d like. So, when I begin with a PLR work, the ideas start churning out and there’s no need to create all of the content myself. Although most of the time you would not recognize the original as the starting content, when I’m done!
