Can You Write 20 Articles in One Day Without a Article Spinner?
Advanced technology makes it possible to automate just about anything. Internet marketers spend tons of money to find the right systems that will work on autopilot. Writing unique content requires many articles to make a good monthly income. Learn how to write more quickly without software.
Do the math if you can write 10, 20 or even 30 articles a day you could drastically improve your monthly earnings. So I am here to tell you that it can be done without investing in those expensive article spinners. Most of the software programs do not work really well, they promise to give you hundreds of versions of your one article by switching the sentences around. Unfortunately the articles do not read very well.
Also to submit this type of content to article directories or auto post blogs just to get backllinks can really defeat the purpose of providing unique content for the search engines. So how do you do it without software? well first of all you need to be really familiar with the topic you are writing about. As you have probably noticed so far that I am talking about things that I have first hand knowledge about. So it makes it much easier to write many articles quickly.
Writing a article that is conversational though is kind of hard for me to do but I am working on it. I like to be so technical at times that I have to remember that people want to relate to what your saying. Speak in laymans terms so that your audience can get the point of your article.
It may help to have an outline of your topic, decide before you start writing what points you want to cover and then lay it out into a easy to follow format. My strategy is to just start typing and as the thoughts start to flow I can pick up the pace. Now it does help to be a fast typist.
So another way to be able to write more without article spinner software is to use voice recognition or voice transcription software that is able to transcribe your words as you talk. I have not personally tried this method but it seems like a really good option for those who can not type very fast.
The more familiar you are with the topic will make it so much easier to produce tons of quality content for your blogs, revenue sharing sites and online magazines.
