Making money with free site content

by Gregorio G. E-Commerce Entrepreneur
Writing and distributing articles has become one of the most powerful money-making methods for promoting your online business. Articles provide your visitors with more than just an overview of your product or service. They can provide readers with valuable information and/or solution to a serious problem. Writing articles that change lives is not that hard to do.

You can go about publishing articles on your site in several ways. First, you can either write the articles yourself or have them written by someone else. Most online Entrepreneurs prefer to take advantage of free content provided by affiliate programs and content sites. The benefit? Quality content for free. Keep in mind, however, that while there are literally millions of free articles available to site owners, the topics of the articles should be about your products or service.

While there are a variety of different types of articles you can use, the most popular ones are the informative articles. Informative articles are excellent for promoting whatever service you may be offering. If you are promoting a product, then you may want to look at another popular article type called the product review.

Obtaining free content:
When considering free article content, there are many sites that will provide this service for registered webmasters and affiliates. Registering with the site to use their content, in most cases, will require your agreement not to author or change the article from its original state. This can be bad for your page ranking if the article is already being used by another website. The reason? Duplicate content.

Most search engines look at duplicate content as a no-no and will penalize sites for such an act by not indexing or displaying pages with duplicate content. Therefore, to avoid getting into trouble with the Big Boys at Google or Yahoo, you might consider registering at a site that allows members to download, re-write and publish the articles they provide.

One site that provides free content to its members on a weekly basis is the MakingYouRicher Wealth Building program. With thousands of free articles covering niche topics ranging from weight loss to male enhancement to internet marketing, there is a chance that you will be able to find enough content to fill your site. You can register to become a member by visiting http://www.renewyourwealth.ws and clicking the link to MYR Program.

Modifying your articles for the best exposure:
When modifying articles for use on your site, it is best to treat each paragraph individually as opposed to trying to re-write the entire article in one sitting. By recreating one article at a time, you are able to keep the content connected in such a way that your reading will find it easy to read, beneficially informative, and very rewarding. The object here is to keep a consistent flow of ideas and information relating to the topic you are covering.

Try re-writing the first paragraph of a free article first. Re-read the paragraph to yourself and see how it flows. If needs be, re-write the paragraph again until the information in it resonates and you are satisfied with it. To enhance your article for SEO (search engine optimization) you will want to use as many keywords in your article as possible. Repeat this process for each paragraph, keeping a literal connection with the one before it. Continue this until your article is perfect and ready for the public eye.

If you would like a detailed guide on modifying content and a list of the most popular keywords, register to become a member of the MYR Program.

Distributing your articles for maximum profit potential:
A few things you should remember before distributing your article is that, one...your article should appear on your site, and two...you should submit your article to as many article directories and online libraries as possible. This task can be very time consuming. However, it can also be very rewarding for your business.

It is a good idea to write two versions of your article before you do anything with it. Version one should go onto your website and version two should be submitted to the directories. Remember to include a link in article one to article two to improve your search engine ranking. Once you have your article ready to go, it is time to get exposures.

Although, submitting your article can be time consuming as we mentioned previously, you can use special article-submission software, like DirectorySubmitter. The program, which is free to access and download via http://www.renewyourwealth.ws, will submit your article to 1700 popular article directories, improve your search engine rankings and make your life a lot easier by not having to do the submitting manually. If you don’t mind the work, you can find all the article directories and libraries etc online, and then manually submit your article one-by-one.

Some final words before get started:
Before you submit your articles, be very sure that you have a good bio box that will allow your readers to click through to your website. A Bio box tells the reader who you are and what your experience is.

Article submission will help your business in several ways. Here are a few of them:

- Establish you as an expert in your field: This will gain you more trust and credibility, and will encourage more clicks through and sales.
- Create back links: These links will increase your Page Rank with Google and allow you to get a better position in their search engine. 
- It will also bring more people to your website through the links.

So, remember, you can either write your own articles or have someone write them for you. Or, you can take advantage of free content from the MYR Program found at http://www.renewyourwealth.ws. Either way, the more articles you post...the more you increase your chance to be a SUCCESS!!!

I prefer writing my own content however the suggestion to rewrite parts of free articles when this is allowed is a good suggestion.

Well... rewriting indeed can be better to quickly publish loads of content... but if you do not do it the right way you might get blacklisted one day ... google doesnt like duplicate content
