Most people write articles with a specific purpose in mind. Some write to increase traffic to their website and others write to generate income. Some write for the sheer joy of it, for the publicity, or to see their name in print. Whatever your reason for writing, I hope you achieve success with it. However, if you are just beginning your writing career, keep in mind that it is not a sprint; it is a long distance race. Whatever your goals, you will not achieve it with your first article (unless you just wanted to see your name in print). The most successful article writers have over a thousand articles in print. Many of them submit numerous articles each day. However, when you reach that point, your articles will work very hard for you. Good articles written six months, or even a year ago, continue to work today. So, if you want to be successful writing articles, regardless of your goals, you’ve got to write often. If you write to generate income, you may not make a penny until your twentieth or even thirtieth article. However, if you stick to it, you can make a lot of money or generate a lot of traffic to your website. In addition to submitting articles often, it matters which ezines you submit your work to. If an ezine specializes in Internet information and you submit an article on knitting, it is unlikely that your article will generate many page views. If you are writing for a particular niche, and you should be, submit to sites that specialize in your area of expertise. As you make more and more submissions, you will become recognized as an expert in your field. Once you achieve expert status, you will get increased page views and your articles will be syndicated (published in other ezines) much more often. Another word of advice for the fledgling author, submit your articles to the largest ezines. It doesn’t do you much good to submit twenty articles to xyz site and receive a total of seven page views. To prevent this, I will check my article stats at various sites from time to time. If recent page views are down substantially, or if they show that fifteen of my articles have not yet been published because they are still pending approval, I will usually drop them from my submission last. You don’t need to check you stats with every submission, but it is a good idea to check them each month or two. My final bit of information is this; submit each article to at least forty or fifty sites. This is particularly important if you write to generate income or traffic. Make sure you include those in your niche as well as the largest ten or fifteen sites. In order to do this efficiently, you will need some sort of automated submission software. If you try to do it on your own, it will take you several hours just to make the submissions. Using the automated software, it should only take you about twenty minutes.
