5 Amazingly Simple Ways to Have Your Articles Read and Bought

It's Super Strategies Saturday! Here's some strategies for having your articles read and bought!

          You've all written something before, whether it's a real full scale article, a love letter, or even just a simple elementary school assignment. The feeling afterwards is great, and you want everyone to see that work you were so proud of. Unfortunately, not everyone is interested; there are many people writing out there. I will be giving you 5 very simple ways to have your articles read and bought.

1. Write About Something You're Passionate About

          Everyone has to be passionate over something, whether it's the justice system, voting rights, civil unions, anything that you feel strongly about and must express your opinion over. The reason why? When you write on something you don't care about, it just sounds different (unless you're just that great a writer, but this isn't for those people), less intriguing for the reader because there won't be as much emotion. When you write on something you're passionate about, everything comes out naturally (faster) and it sounds more sincere. This is very important for your articles.

2. Target the Right Audience With Your Article

          To get people to read and/or buy your articles, you must be targeting the right audience; how many viewers are you going to get if you target an article on cooking towards computer programmers? Not many, that's for sure. By targeting the right audience that your article relates to, you first make them interested or at least be able to relate to your article, and since they can relate, they will be much more likely to read it and/or buy it.

3. Optimize the Article's Title

          The article's title has to be catchy for more people to view it. Many articles that are read a lot have a title along the lines of "3 Surprisingly Easy Ways to....", and that serves as a great template to start with. No one wants to read something titled "My opinion on why cooking is fun". Also, making it show up on more search engines certainly wouldn't hurt. Your title also depends somewhat on the topic you're writing on; some words are specific to certain topics.

4. Have Great Content

          This one is very straightforward. To have people want to share it with friends or to buy your article, it must have good compelling content. Read it yourself a few times, get the feel of it and see if it's good. Read it from an objective view, or you won't have a very accurate idea of your article.

5. Share it with Friends and Have Them Share it Too

          You can have the best article in the world; it won't do you any good if no one gets to even see it. A great way to get more viewership is to share it on social media, to friends, and ask them to share it too, even if it takes tons of pestering to get them to do it. It does pay off when you successfully do it.

As always, thanks for reading and I hope you will share this with your friends if you enjoyed! Good luck with your writing!
