Simple And Easy Article Writing

October 28th, 2008 by admin

Writing articles is a great way to establish yourself as an expert in a particular niche. It’s also a great way to get more traffic while also creating back links to your site. But a lot of people have difficulty writing articles. Well, here’s an easy way to article writing.

Obviously the first thing you need to do is decide on a topic to write about. Often the topic can make or break an article. Not only do you want the topic to be interesting but you also want the topic to be broad enough to provide good information but specific enough so that you don’t try to tackle too much information in one article.

Once you have a topic in mind, the next thing you need to do in order to write the article is to decide what you want to say. A good rule of thumb is to always have three things you want to say or teach. This is based on the three prong thesis, which you might remember from your school days. Once you have your topic and your three things you want to say then you’re ready to begin writing your article.

Here’s the easy article writing formula:

An introductory paragraph, a paragraph for each thing you want to say (three total), and a concluding paragraph. So your article will usually be 5 paragraphs in all.

In the introduction you will begin with a broad statement about the topic of the article. If possible you want to have a hook - something that will bring the reader in and cause him/her to keep reading. Then you want to follow-up on the first sentence. Next you tell the reader what they’re going to read about. You can include the 3 things you will tell them in the last sentence of the introduction.

The body of your article will include a paragraph for each thing you’re telling them. It’s just that easy to write the main part of the article. Just follow the three pieces of information and write about each of them in 3-6 sentences.

The conclusion will just sum-up the entire article. Remind the reader about what they’ve just read. And then you’ll be finished writing your article.

Now you see how article writing can be made easy. The most work is deciding on a suitable topic and then choosing three quality pieces of information you want to include. Once you do that - and as long as you do it well - then the article will pretty much write itself.
