If you are capable of writing articles, then you are sure to earn a decent income sitting at your home. Article writing cannot be written professionally by all the qualified people. There are certain golden rules that have to be applied in your writing to give finishing shape to your article. Here are the 6 golden rules for article writing and submission.
* Golden Rule 1 – Let us start with the title of the article. The title should be derived using the keyword. The search engines results depend on the keyword, so do not fail to give a catchy title with the relevant keywords. You can also include the keyword in the first line of your article to drive traffic to your site.
* Golden Rule 2 – Start your article with attractive summary. The summary of the article should describe the whole article. Use only short paragraph in the summary and never do the copy paste work.
* Golden Rule 3 – Do not mention your company or brand name in the article. Most of the popular article submission sites do not encourage direct promotion of your product. For example, if your target is to promote Sony TV or Camera, you are not supposed to mention these names in your articles directly.
* Golden Rule 4 – Avoid using keywords repeatedly. The keyword density depends on the number of word counts. Do not use the keyword more than one time in each paragraph.
* Golden Rule 5 – Even though you are not supposed to use your brand name in the article, you can use the resource box for this purpose. Resource box will be available in every article submission directories. Here, you can mention about your company, product, brand name etc. You can also provide back link to your website using this resource box.
* Golden Rule 6 – Use short paragraphs in your writing. Small paragraphs with 7 to 8 lines or paragraphs with 100 words will give unique look to your writing. You can attract the readers by providing small sub-headings also. The main part of the article writing is on the content you provide. Never fill the gap with unwanted information. Your article should provide information related to the topic and keyword.
These are some of the golden rules that have to be followed in your article writing. Always check your articles for grammatical errors and punctuation marks before submitting them to the directories. And finally never copy & paste the information from other sites, otherwise your article will be rejected by the article submission directories.
