Online Business – Do your own writing
Fresh cleaning content is one of the keys to online business success. I have to admit, I do use other experts and underground internet marketers articles, ebooks and how to information from time to time, but on the most part, I write my own content. It should be around the 75 – 80% mark. Meaning, 75 -80% of your content should be your own.
Why?
Simple. From a readers point of view they want information that is new, not something that they can find in other websites, blogs or ezines. For example. If you wanted to learn about Niche marketing and surfed the web for some helpful content on the subject, only to find most websites have the same articles, tips, and how to’s, and then, you come across an article that is fresh, new and helpful, which of all the websites would you think has the better content?
It would be the one that stands out from the rest, of course… So many people just copy and paste articles into their website, without, changing anything. PLR Private label rights members do this (among others) all the time. So the web is flooded with articles that are 100% the same (don’t be one of these people). If you are a member of a PLR service, rewrite everything! Well, at less 75 -80% of it.
Why 75 – 80% ???
This is for SEO Search Engine Optimization reasons. Search engines love new content, they always have and always will. In the eyes of search engines like Google, Yahoo, Ask, MSM, and so on, by writing fresh content you’re ticking one of these boxes. In turn you get free web traffic (this can take some time to do if you only use one form of internet marketing. SEO is always changing… So look into article marketing, social marketing, and forum marketing). Anyway. If all you do is copy and paste other peoples work, then, the search engines treat it like this… First come, first server.
However. If you rewrite those articles, tips, or whatever it maybe to at less 75 – 80%, then its classed as new. This of course means more free web traffic, and, the traffic you do get will value your content more.
Here’s a tip list to help you… Is your content:
- Up-to-date with todays events
- 75 – 80% written in your hand
- easy to understand
- relevant to your website or blog
- full of keywords that that target your article content (around every 150 works you should have a keyword or phrase)
- ONLY talking about one thing, one element, one part of your niche
- have affiliate links highlighting keyword (one too two)
- have hyperlinks to helpful information
OK. Thats just a quick check list for you, but you’ll find it helps, alot!
So…
If you can write your own ads, articles and reviews instead of using pre-formatted ones offered by affiliate programs and PLR memberships you will be setting yourself apart from other affiliates and online business owners, and of course boosting you search engine rankings.
