How to Write and Submit Articles that Get Read
March 30th, 2006 | Author: Jim Hutchinson
In addition to maintaining blogs, writing articles is a great way to get noticed. People crave information and will search their favorite places for it. They will also subscribe to news feeds and article announcements in their chosen categories.
When writing articles, keep them informative and use a spell checker. Keeping the paragraphs short will make your article easier to read. If it is written well, it will be saved and referenced many times over.
To start writing, I reference a list of topics that I continue adding to when the ideas come to mind. When I see a problem, something that can help others, or a topic that hasn’t been covered well, that can be written about in detail, I will make a note of it, to be researched when putting the article together.

Q: Should I build and maintain my business Web site myself or pay someone else to do the work for me?
– Wesley L.
A: When you say, pay someone else to do the work for you, Wesley, I am going to assume that you are talking about hiring a professional Web site designer to do the work and not your next-door neighbor’s teenage son. If my assumption is correct, then read on. If not, go ahead and surf on over to Dilbert.com. You will get no good out of the advice I’m about to give, so you might as well consult Dilbert for your hot business tips.
Should you build and maintain your business Web site yourself or pay someone to do it for you? Let me answer your question with a couple of my own. Number one: is building and maintaining Web sites the key focus of your business? Number two: could your time be better spent doing more important things like, oh I don’t know, say running your business? If your answers were no and yes, respectively, then you have no business building and maintain a Web site.
Remember this: every minute you spend on tasks that are not related to the key focus of your business is time spent to the detriment of your business. In other words, every minute you spend focusing on tasks that do not contribute to the growth of your business and thereby increase your bottom line is time wasted.
