How to Churn Out Articles without Sacrificing Quality

One of the commonest complaints website content writers have is that they do not have enough time to give good quality in their articles. Come to think about it, this is not an unjustified complaint at all. Article writers ordinarily have to provide a huge number of articles within a deadline, and quite often they may even be ignorant of the subject they are going to write on. So, it becomes quite a chore - conducting the research on the internet, obtaining information, sequencing the points, writing the actual matter and then uploading it to the website. All this really multiplies the time required to make the articles. The consequence is, the deadline gets jumped and occasionally the project itself is lost.

Any article writer would definitely like to write more articles for two reasons:

(i) It increases the traffic on the website and

(ii) The writer gets paid more. Either way, there is profit to the writer. But, should a writer take on cartloads of assignments at the risk of losing out on quality?

However, there are some tried and tested ways in which article writers can write several articles in a day (even up to ten articles!) without losing out on their quality. This requires talent, but it requires something more than that. It requires careful planning and strategy before you begin your work. Read through the following guidelines. When you are done, you will be equipped to write more articles per day than you are already writing; and that too without losing out on their quality.

(1) When you get an assignment, the first thing you must do is to go through all the keywords. Categorize similar keywords together. When you do your research, find out points for all the keywords in a single category together.

For example if the assignment is about modular homes, then all the keywords in this subject such as 'what are modular homes', 'how to assemble modular homes', 'price of modular homes' must be taken together. Find out points for all these keywords simultaneously.

(2) On a rough draft, prepare various headings corresponding to different keywords on one category. As you keep getting good information on different websites, type them in brief points under the relevant headings. Even if you read only about ten articles on modular homes, you could get up to a dozen points under each heading.

(3) Now you can begin to actually write the articles. You already have your rough draft ready. Look at the points you have collected in them and put them in a logical sequence. When this is done, start writing on them. Do not use the same language as you had read earlier. If possible, make the language simpler - that always helps as you attract a wider readership.

(4) You may have finished your article, but it is never complete until you give it some personal touch. Write at least three observations you made when researching information on the keywords. When you were reading other writers' works, you must certainly have thought about something else that could be added, or something that could be explained further. Use this in your article. This is what will make your article unique.

(5) When one of the keywords is complete, go to the next in the category. You already have information on that too. Just type it all in. And do not forget to put in your own ideas also. Make it as different from the original articles as possible.

After you follow the points mentioned above, you will find that you are able to write several articles one after the other, provided they are on the same parent category. The key to speeding up the work is to cut down time on research, by simultaneously researching for similar keywords. It is a verified fact that writers spend much more time on researching their information than on writing the article itself. Hence if the time on research is shortened, you can complete the article in about half the time.

This is a method which is vouched for by article writers across the globe. The average statistic is, if you work for just about four hours a day, you can churn out about ten articles on the same topic. You can count one hour for the research and making the rough draft and three hours for the typing, putting in original ideas and formatting the article in a readable style.

Needless to say, when you are saving time thus, you have more time to edit the articles before submitting and to improve their overall quality. Though, this will not be very much required. Since you are taking pains from the onset to include points from various other articles on the net, your article will be informative. Increasing its readability and giving it that trademark literary flair of an Internet article is up to you.
