Owning, running and maintaining an internet based business or a
site needs articles. Plain and simple, everyone who has a site
knows this. Even those who don’t have sites but are frequent
internet users knows this as well. Articles quench the thirst for
information and knowledge of the people. Plus, the articles
provides many other benefits for the site.
The benefits that articles provide are putting a site high in
the ranking in search results of keywords and keyword phrases
that pertains or are relevant to his or her site. They also
provide attraction to website visitors when they are appreciated
and is linked to your site from another site or newsletter.
Articles provide for the increase of the confidence and trust
levels of customers to your site and company.
Many articles are also beneficial to both company and its
traffic. When the readers like the articles, they would tell
more of their friends, family and peers and recommend your
site to them, providing for a larger volume of traffic. You
get bigger sales if your traffic trusts and believes in you.
Your product or services would be much easier to sell when
they know you know what you are doing and talking about.
So ok, we have established that articles are very important
to a site and to business. Articles are crucial and to keep
ahead in the game, a site must have an article, it is
imperative. There is one dilemma though, not many people
like writing articles.
Many website owners would rather spend their time on something
else, and unless you’re a big time company, you don’t have the
necessary resources to use on a pool of article writers.
Plagiarism or copying of other articles is frowned upon and
could easily get you into trouble, worst case scenario; a hefty
fine and jail time.
So what are the other options?
Well, for starters if you hate writing articles and you can’t
afford to hire people to write for you then don’t. Get free
articles. The first place to look at for free articles is the
public domain. Here you won’t have problems with copyright
infringement and the following penalties and fines if you get
caught for plagiarism.
Public domain articles are articles freely given to the public
for public use. You can do whatever you want with it. You
can place it on your site, name it as yours, put it in a
newsletter its your decision. Always remember though that you
will have to choose articles that is very relevant to your site.
The downside to public domain articles is that since it is free
for everybody, many of your competitors may have access to
them as well. Since every site needs to be original and unique
even though you have the same niche, this could be a predicament.
You may also have to edit them a bit to place more keywords and
keyword phrases to make them better.
Another way to get free articles is to allow other sites which
has the same subject or topic as yours to submit articles to
your site. This would be only to augment your existing content
or else all your articles would be leading to other sites since
these articles would have resource boxes with them that could
link or direct the readers to their site. That’s why it is
important to have your own articles; you cold use them to link
your site to other sites as well.
But, to truly feel the impact of what a good article is to you,
go for original ones. There are many article writers who do
part time and freelance article writing jobs that charges only
minimal fees. You can get good articles that have all the
keywords and keyword phrases you need and people are looking
for.
The investment you made for these articles would be worthwhile
because you could use them for all the benefits you could
offer. You hold copyrights to them and you will be able to use
them anyway you want. As your articles help you in building
your business and your site, you will have more articles to
write and maybe then you won't be having second thoughts about
articles.
Feel free to use this article online and in your email
newsletters as long as you leave it intact and do not
alter it in anyway. The by-line and biography must
remain in the article.
