Five Tips on Becoming a Better Content Writer

Posted on January 6, 2010 by Linda Stacy

Content Writing TipsWhether you write just for your own sites or are branching out as content writer for others, these five tips will help you improve your skills and increase your value online.

  1. Read other people’s content. Not only will you get ideas for what to write about, but you may pick up some pointers on style and format.
  2. Stay current. Accepted writing practices change, especially online writing practices. You may want a copy of the AP Stylebook, a resource used by reporters and other writers as a guide to spelling, grammar, abbreviations, and more.
  3. Keep learning. Set yourself up to be an expert.
  4. Choose a niche. If you are going to be an expert, you need to have a field. It is hard to concentrate on three or four different areas. Choose one and establish yourself there before moving on to another area.
  5. Find a writing style. Or find your voice. Are you laid back, witty or serious? Every writer has a voice – explore and develop yours.

The best writers are those who never stop learning. There’s always room for improvement.

Easy PLR for Direct Sales Consultants

Posted on December 21, 2009 by Linda Stacy

Nicole Dean from EasyPLR.com was kind enough to answer a few questions about how direct sales consultants can use private label rights (PLR) articles for their business.

PLR articles are basically article drafts that are sold to bloggers and online business owners. You can purchase these articles very inexpensively and then use them on your website, in your customer newsletters, or even in team training. (We’ll get into that in a bit.)

My favorite thing about using PLR articles is that you can change the articles and customize them (since you get the articles in Word format as a .doc) and in many cases even put your own name as the author.

Here’s what Nicole had to say about PLR for direct sellers.

Prefer video? Click here to watch.

Hi Linda! Thanks so much for asking me for an interview. :) I’m glad to help.

questionDoes EasyPLR offer content specifically for direct sales?

answerYes. My site, EasyPLR does offer articles regularly just for direct sales. We create those packs for team leaders to use in recruiting members and training their teams.

Article titles that we’ve had in the past are:

  • Direct Sales Beginner’s Dictionary
  • Avoiding Last Minute Cancellations
  • Do You Have What It Takes To Succeed In Direct Sales?
  • Things to Look for In a Direct Sales Recruiter

As you can see, the potential is truly limitless with this type of content. Not only can you use the articles to recruit new members and to train your existing team, you could create an ebook or even a printed book and sell it on amazon.com and lulu.com – becoming an instant expert in your field.

All for the price of a pizza.

It’s pretty powerful stuff.

questionCan PLR content about other topics be easily adapted to direct sales or to a specific product line (like jewelry or gourmet food for example)?

answerAbsolutely. My sister site, YummyPLR.com offers all kinds of cooking articles that a Tupperware rep or another gourmet food rep could easily incorporate into their business.

And, at EasyPLR.com we have plenty of content that can be adapted to a direct sales business – fitness and diet, parenting, holidays, debt, pets, and home interior. Plus, if you need content and we don’t have it on hand, just ask. We oftentimes can create an article pack if you provide us with the titles that you need.

questionCan the PLR content be used for printed material like recruiting brochures or training for team members?

answerAbsolutely. In fact, I highly recommend that you repurpose the content in several ways to get the most bang for your buck. (Repurpose simply means to use the content in multiple ways.)

For instance, post the training on your own training blog, then send it in an email, and use it in printed materials, as well. You can also read the articles after you’ve tweaked them a bit, and offer audio or video training, too.

questionDoes EasyPLR offer any training or help on how to use the PLR content?

answerDefinitely. First you can sign up for my notification list at EasyPLR.com where you’ll receive more information and a free report – as well as notices for free and discounted PLR. Also, every article pack includes additional bonuses that will help your online business.

Just swing by EasyPLR.com and YummyPLR.com to see what we currently have available.

Five Ways to Become a Better Blogger

Posted on November 30, 2009 by Linda Stacy

Better BloggerWhile the actual process of blogging is simple, getting the traffic and the revenue from your blog that you desire can be more difficult. Here are five ways to improve your blogging skills.

1. Keep up with the times. No one wants to read last month’s news. A blogger has to know what is going on in the world yesterday, today and tomorrow. Some important issues stay in the headlines for months but your audience will want fresh updates on those topics. Knowing what is going on around you and what will interest others will make your blog content worth reading.

2. Change your content often. There is nothing worse than losing traffic you’ve worked hard to attract because you don’t update your posts. You might not post every day but you can be sure that your readership will drop off it you only post once a month. Readers like fresh content and they will go where they can get it. If you have trouble producing enough of your own material, consider hiring a writer, ask others to guest post on your blog, use PLR content, and even sprinkle in some free content.

3. Network with others. Get your content out there. Register with search engines and join social bookmarking sites like Technorati and Digg so people can see what you are doing. Share your blog address with friends on your profile page on social media sites like Facebook and Twitter.

4. Pay attention to your readership. When people comment they would like for you to answer them back. Some ask questions and some just want to let you know that they agree or disagree with what you’ve said. Take the time to talk to them. After all, they took the time to visit and post a comment. Their comments can drive the direction your blog takes in the future if you want to keep them as readers and increase your traffic.

5. Keep your ads to a minimum. Ads are a way for bloggers to make money with their sites. That’s all well and good and a few ads are great and will attract attention. If you post too many, however, visitors might be turned off. You want your content to be the main attraction.

Creating interesting content and keeping readers coming back takes time and effort. Use these five tips to enhance the value of your blog and your effort will pay off.

Resource or related articleLink from video is an affiliate link.

Perks:

  • Membership is limited to 500 members to reduce competition
  • 30-day money-back guarantee.
  • Membership can be cancelled any time.

Thoughts:

I’ve used quite a few private label rights products from this service and highly recommend it. This is very high quality content that can be uploaded and used as is. But one of my favorite things about PLR is that it can be rewritten to make it more suited to a specific target audience and more in my own voice. You can also add your own web site links, affiliate links, or even paid advertising to the reports. Best of all, PLR content saves time and money, by eliminating the need to research and write all of your own material or to look for, hire, and pay content writers.

One thing I would caution you about when joining a content membership service such as this. To get the most out of it you need to be prepared to spend some time each month downloading, reviewing, and implementing the content. Otherwise you may end up simply storing hundreds of unused articles and reports (Of course you can always use it later on, but for me personally, I find that if I don’t use it with a month or two, I tend to forget about it.) If you are planning on using the content on your blog, your membership includes a handy tool that allows you to instantly publish the content to your blog with just a few clicks of the mouse.

How to Find Out More:

The Importance of Good Content

Posted on July 8, 2009 by Linda Stacy

Quality content is increasingly important to online success. As Internet users become more and more savvy, they are quick to judge and even quicker to click away from websites that don’t address their needs and wants. Web pages full of links and ad, and devoid of information, not only turn away visitors, but popular search engines are now using sophisticated programs to week out such sites.

Good content helps your site get to the top of Internet searches and it’s important to help make you money once people get to your website. Visitors figure if your website isn’t high quality, neither is anything they can find there. Quality content helps them stick around longer and helps builds trust in the quality of your site and products and services.

Quality content is also important for getting links to your site. You can submit your content to article archives and when other webmasters use your content it includes a link to your site. This raises your search engine rankings. Quality content also gets people talking about you, whether it’s on blogs and on social media.

So, what is good content? Continue Reading

What is Content Marketing?

Posted on April 21, 2009 by Linda Stacy

Perhaps content marketing can be summed up by simply saying “Give the people what they want.” People come online looking for information and solutions. Using content marketing to provide potential customers with the information they’re looking for is highly effective.

Content marketing can go by a lot of different names such as private media, branded content, customer media and so on, but they are all essentially content marketing. This is probably one of the best ways to make sure your marketing is being truly effective.

One definition of content marketing is: a technique of making and distributing valuable and relevant content to bring in a much defined target audience with the over all objective being the creation of sales. Basically this is a way to reaching out to your customers and potential customers in a way specifically designed to attract them to you and keep them coming back.

Content marketing is all done without overtly trying to sell a product; it is intended to educate and inform the customers. With typical marketing, the goal is to make a sale and the product or service is the main point of the approach. Content marketing is very different from this approach and has proven to be very effective.

The idea around content marketing is to deliver consistent and useful information to the customer. In return, they will reward the company with their business and, over time, their loyalty to the brand. This form of marketing creates a bond between the customer and the company. This bond is a very hard one to break and results in ongoing business over time and a loyal customer.

Traditional marketing is becoming less and less useful as customers are able to skip commercials or change the channel on the TV. Ads in papers and billboards are not interactive and provide no real help to the customer. Pop-ups on the Internet are another way advertisers try to market their products but this can be ineffective as more and more people use their pop-up blocking tools on their browsers to avoid these invasive marketing tactics.

Content marketing breaks the mold completely and as odd as it may seem, the customer is the one who searches out the information they need. Not only do they remember where they found what they needed, they remember who provided the useful information as well -and this is where the marketing comes in.

Potential customers will buy from a company they trust and feel has the same interests as they do. This is why providing helpful advice and information is so very important to this marketing strategy. Most of the time, the people reading information on a web page don’t realize they are being marketed to as they read the content.

Recent studies have shown 70-80% of people who were surveyed, felt more comfortable buying something from a company they trust. Content marketing builds trust, because the customer begins to look forward to your next content installment and may make decisions based on the information given.
