6 Tips to Help You Write Articles
By:John Newcomb

Are you having trouble writing articles? Do you struggle to type out even one article in an hour? Is your article marketng suffering because you take hours upon hours to write one 300 word article? If your answer to any of these questions is yes, then read on how you can improve your article marketing success.

1. Organize and plan ahead. Merely jumping into an article marketing campaign without any focus will leave you distracted, and fumbling for the right words. Plan ahead as to the topics of your articles. You will find it much easier to write articles once you know what you will be writing about.

2. Don't over plan. While planning is great, spending too much in just organizing and planning your articles can be counter-productive.

3. Study others' articles. Head over to good article directory like eZineArticles and study the kind of articles already there. This is great for gathering ideas. The more you study others articles, the more you will start recognizing paragraph organization patterns that you can use in your own articles.

4. Stay clear off sites like Digg.com or Facebook. You can waste hours on these websites without even knowing, distracting you from your goal of writing articles.

5. Study article templates. If you are a poor writer, article templates can act like crutches when you are just starting off. However, once you become more experienced, wean yourself off these templates and start expressing yourself in your own voice.

6. Start writing! This is easily the most important tip. You can waste hours upon hours planning and studying others' work, but unless you actually sit down and put in some solid hours into writing articles, you will never reach your goal.
