Recently I was asked by a fellow affiliate if I have any advice on writting content. Here are 13 things you should take in mind before start writting tones of content for your site!
Please Note: This guide talks about content and products from the More Niche affiliate network.
- Don’t use content rewritting software/sites. There is nothing like original content.
If, however, you decide to do some rewritting.
Do it manually. Read, take a break and then write.
Don’t try to rewrite articles simultaniously. It just doesn’t work out. - Write original, creative and useful content.
- You can either write for a blog (personal experiences, etc) or a review site (much more fun once you get into the role of it).
- If you are into weight loss it would be good first to do reviews about competitive brands to Proactol, like Phentermine for example.
Diet pills such as Phentermine are on the market for quite some time, so they have much better traffic from the search engines.
Make few of those then start writting about Proactol, UniqueHoodia, etc. If you manage your site navigation properly you should convert Phentermine to Proactol traffic. - Try to have a routine about writting.
1 hour per day is a good thing.
When i was writting more actively I used to get 1 hour earlier and write some stuff before work.
This way you’ll keep yourself more creative. - Read this article about the breaking through writer’s block.
- Keep it simple.
While you won’t enjoy writting 5-page aricles, users won’t have fun reading too long posts on your blog, either.
A short and informative post works best. Unless you are doing a review of a product. - While reviews get traffic, sales copies make the sales.
- Read-through this guide on copy writting.
- In the resources area of every product there is a tab called “News, media and scripts”. Choose a product and read through its promotion guides, if it has any.
- Also, read the MoreNiche copywritting guides. There is some good thinking there.
- By my oppinion every good e-marketeer is a journalist, author, good person and a sales man.
Honest and to the point. This is the advertising text that works. - SEO always counts. I suggest you first get on with the content and then optimise it.
Here are two articles about some very basic stuff related to WordPress and SEO:
1) Wordpress SEO 101
2) Optimizing Wordpress for proper indexing
