Article Marketing Chunks 7.0

We have a lot to learn from article marketing and writing. This work from home is a continuous growing experience just like other fields of online business. The chunks in this one focus more on discussing an effective article title, finding out why choosing the right category for your articles are very important and reviewing some common mistakes in article writing that should be avoided.

The Title Thing

More than just a block of text or a headline, your article should have a little promise in it. What kind of little promise do you mean, you may ask. It’s a promise to give something to your readers like the information they want. Simply put, the title should awaken the reader’s interest and motivate them to read on. That being said, you have to make sure that the body should answer the promise you offered on your title. Nothing more, nothing less.

Category Selection

Choosing the right category for your articles is as important as determining an effective title. There are a number of readers who do not rely much on search engine results and go directly to article sources. From there, they browse the site for articles according to categories. Some search for popular articles under this or that category. If you happen to misplace your articles under a different category, chances are it won’t reach your targeted readers. If people will search for it through the categories, they will not be able to find it. Imagine the waste. You have in your hands great articles yet they are being viewed by the wrong people. One good thing with this issue though is if you selected incorrectly a category for your piece of writing, most article host and directory sites will allow you to edit or modify that part. But then again, what a hassle. So you should determine the proper category for your articles beforehand to avoid the added trouble.

A Few No-No’s

Some common mistakes that should be avoided in our work from home especially in article marketing and writing would be the excessive and unnecessary use of punctuation marks like quotation marks, colons, semicolons, slashes, etc., wrong spelling and wrong usage of words in your article title and body, in short, poor grammar, and placing a year or date in the article title.
