Focus First—Some Key Points for Online Article Writing The Power of Words and Information It’s still the information age. Society has tossed its stacks of encyclopedias and replaced them with eBooks, downloads, and digitized compendiums stored on laptops and pocket cell phones. There is information at everyone’s fingertips, and whether they need a map to the football stadium or a list of alkali metals from the periodic table, they can get it fast. And people want more. The knowledge of the power of words and information is also commonplace with the consumer public. People need information for their jobs, home life, and social circles. There is no such thing as knowing too much. But with this desire of information comes the need for better information. A lot of people know a lot of things, but few of them can articulate them as a writer. As an independent business pro, you might be feeling the desire to fill the void for information demand. But once you sit at the desk and try to hammer it out, you realize just how hard it is to turn this information into well­written articles. Having some focus points, however, can push you to write clear, concise, and successful articles that will display your love for providing information, while also making you successful. Put Yourself in the Audience’s Seat There’s no wrong way to write online articles, but there are some conditions to be aware of. Doing online article submission often works in conjunction with your writing. Article submission web sites have a specific audience or readership that can help you shape your writing. When you are creating your articles about whatever topic you want to write about—be it automotive information or travel tips —reading over the other articles on the best article submission sites can give you a knowledge of what sort of writing you need to do. Also, reading over all article submission guidelines with fine observation will help you know how long your material has to be. What is most important for you, and why article submission is so important for you and your business, is its ability to bring people to your own web site. Today’s online article submission web sites often allow business pros to leave information, links, and other notes, referring prospective clients back to their online business material.


The creation and sharing of the information that you love so much is unquestionably fun. But there has to be an outlet for you as well; an outlet to have business potential for yourself. When it comes to writing online articles, it’s about having an audience­seat perspective. You are writing for others, so your material must be informative but clear, with proper grammar throughout. Once you’ve got that down­pat, you can go about incorporating your own business information into the body of the article and/or the interfaces that allow you do so. This is why article submission can really work for business pros and the general public—they get their information, and you get a chance to bring new clients to your business. The Blank Page Thrill In a recent interview, novelist John Irving noted that there’s an excitement when you sit down to write. Looking at a blank page is a new adventure, no matter how many times you’ve done it. This is good advice if you want to be an online article writer. You know something good, you create the information for people to read, and then edit it a bit to allow further access to your own world of information. The thrill of the blank page is the thrill of bringing more success to your business. Allow that thrill to give you focus for success in the information.
