3). New to Article Writing - Start Here
First, go back to basics. The whole idea of article writing is to communicate. You have found good information, news, drama, or opinion on a timely subject and feel you have something to say about it.

8). How to Use Anthologies to Build Your Reading Audience
Copyright 2006 Black Butterfly Press
Two years ago, when my colleague, fellow writer, Patricia Phillips, author of recent novel, Last Bride Standing, (and others) came up with the idea of writing an anthology together, I never realized the unlimited possibilities that could come from a book written by three authors.

In this article I want to show you the exact reason why providing less content can prove to be better at building value for your readers than providing more content.
First, let me ask you some rhetorical questions...
Is an ebook that's 308 pages better than an ebook that's 102 pages? Is an audio file that's 327 minutes long better than an audio file.

12). Writing Ain't for Everyone, But Article Writing Is!
Ready...Set...Go! If you are not submitting articles to article directory web sites, which pertain to your site's content and theme, you are missing the proverbial boat on gaining additional popularity for your web site and valuable, one-way links back to your site which are critical for good placement within the search engines.

13). Catering to Your Target Audience
One of the biggest mistakes that article writers make is to try to accommodate too many readers with one article. For truly effective article marketing, write each article with a specific audience, and their needs, in mind. A small niche audience is always better than no audience at all.
