Selling Articles

Articles are divided into copywriting and rewriting. Accordingly, people writing data articles- copywriters and rewriters. The difference between articles written by copywriters and rewriters is that the former write unique articles, and the latter are reworking already finished ones.

All written articles sold through electronic article exchanges. Exchanges of articles are sites on which they are placed in accordance with the category.

It should be borne in mind that in order to sell two articles a day, of course, you also need to write at least two. Also, you do not need to think that the posted article will be sold on the same day. It can be bought in a week, a month, but it may not be bought at all. Therefore, if you write 10 articles a day, this does not mean that your daily earnings will be $50. But as they accumulate in the exchange base, income will increase.

Below are the exchanges where you can buy or sell articles.

A simple formula for writing and selling any article

1. How to choose topics for articles

Initially, you need to decide what topics are generally of interest to potential buyers. The answer to this question is given by the article exchanges themselves. Going to the site of any of the exchanges, you can see that all articles are divided into categories that determine the interests of readers, and, consequently, customers. For example, on the site of the TEXTSALE exchange, all topics are divided into categories.

From the whole variety of topics, it is advisable to choose those about which you have at least some idea. In no case is it required to be a great specialist - it is enough to have only general concepts. Therefore, anyone can easily select several categories at once.

This section displays information about the trend in the popularity of search queries. For example, as you can see in the screenshot below, articles with the keywords “hosting” were searched for the first time, and the search query “gifts” became even more popular in a week and rose by three positions. Since the topic "gifts" is popular, then nothing is easier - write on the topic of gifts. Moreover, there is no such person who would not know what it is.

So, we have decided on the topics on which we will write articles. Then the next question arises.

2. Where to find information for writing articles

After choosing a topic, two questions arise: what exactly will we write about and where to get information for articles. The answer to these questions is quite simple:

1. Search in the catalogs of articles. Today, there are many directories on the Internet (to find them, just type “articles” or “articles catalog” in the search bar of your browser). You can find thousands of articles on various topics freely available on them.
2. Information can be found in print media such as books, newspapers, magazines.
3. On forums and websites dedicated to various topics.

In general, the principle of writing articles is to process information found on any topic. This may be an addition, retelling in your own words (rewriting), analysis of the information collected, etc.

3. Selling Headlines

The title of an article is the main selling point. What a potential buyer sees when he comes to the exchange is the titles of the proposed articles. Therefore, in order for your article to be noticed among others, the headline must be bright, attract attention and arouse interest in the information it contains.

4. How to sell an article faster

You can place articles for sale on any one exchange, but then only members of this exchange will be your potential buyers. Therefore, it is better to post articles on several exchanges at once in order to increase the number of potential buyers. Accordingly, this will increase the likelihood of selling your articles and speed it up.

5. How to get a steady income from one article

According to the rules of the exchanges, the article is sold only once. After the sale, all rights to the article are transferred to the buyer. You, as a copywriter, do not have the right to further distribute or sell this article in any form. Resale of articles is prohibited.

So, the article is sold, but it still remained in the computer. How to make sure that it does not lie idle, but continues to bring profit. To do this, you need to remember who and why buys them. These are site owners who need unique content to increase traffic. But as soon as the purchased article is posted on the site, there are those who simply copy it for their web resources. So after some time it becomes not unique. Then, according to the principle of writing articles, it itself can serve as a source of information for creating another article based on it. That is, retelling it in other words, we get a rewrite, and by reworking and supplementing it, we get a copyright.
