Article Writing Tips: What to Write?

So, what type of article writing projects should you seek?  It depends on your personal preferences, as well as how much money you want to make.  You may find it easier to write articles on subjects that you already know about.  This can help you write more articles in a shorter period of time, as you may not have to research the topic in question.  On that same note, expand your horizons.  Topics that you are unfamiliar with may require more research, but they can increase your opportunities for making money.

As for writing your articles, some websites and website owners provide you with a form to submit your articles through.  This is nice, but it is recommended that you first write articles in Microsoft Word.  Why?  Because you are provided with a spell check and grammar check program.  This makes catching your errors and submitting quality work easier.

Even with a spell check and grammar check program, it is important to proofread.  Not all programs are 100 percent full proof.  Also, be on the lookout for accidentally clicks.  Some programs, like Microsoft Word, allow you to add words to their program.  If you accidentally add a misspelled word, it will not be recognized as being wrong anymore.  At the very least, you should proofread all articles twice.  Some recommend proofreading once silently and once aloud.

The above mentioned steps are great ways to get started with making money writing articles.  As a reminder, you will receive quicker payments when finding clients to work with, but you can create passive income by using your own articles on blogs, content filled websites, or third party websites with revenue sharing programs.
