Many blogs are too short to efficiently cover a topic and provide a solution for the reader. Though blogs have been around for quite a while now, blogging is often co... more...

Writing is a product. A basic marketing truism is that you can't sell a product if no one wants to buy it.

It's extremely easy to find out what topics are in demand by doing a little Internet surfing. In fact, the Internet is actually the best place to research hot topics. It's far better than... more...

Many writers would prefer to hole up in their little garrets and write and write and write. They'd be happy to never talk to anyone again and live quietly alone with their writing. Unfortunately in this picture, the writer starves to death. The reality is that if you're smart, you will develop good relationships with editors. You will behave professionally, and never burn bridges. Writing assignments can build on one another. If you make editors happy with your clean, err... more...

If you've been a freelance writer for a while, you are probably adept at two or three types of writing. If you are a good advertising copywriter, you can probably also write good catalog copy and good promotional copy. A good short story writer can often write good human-interest features. Some good technical writers can also write good how-to articles and instructional manuals. However, like the old adage says, just because you can do something, doesn't mean you should.

The first step to writing an irresistible article is to create a clear and simple title that includes prime keywords that will be sprinkled throughout the article.

If you have an article of 500 words in length, then a combination of your keywords/keyword phrases should appear 10-15 times. Why Focus on a Great Article Title? A great article title may take only seconds to write, but can draw v... more...

John Huston, the director of such classic movies as The Maltese Falcon and The Treasure of Sierra Madre, once told the story that when a woman invited his good friend Ernest Hemingway out to the dance floor, Hemingway responded, "Criminy!
