How to Keep a Content Resource Website Alive

Writing articles for content resource web sites provides a legitimate opportunity for the average person to make money on the Internet in a way that is easy to learn and convenient to do in their spare time. To keep these web sites alive some changes need to be embraced by the online community.

Choose a content resource website for which you would like to write and join. Content resource writers help web sites attract visitors by routinely publishing unique and relevant article content. Visitors to these web sites are exposed to advertisements and paid links which are displayed alongside the articles. When the visitor clicks a paid link and is delivered to the appropriate website, the sponsor of the link has an opportunity to earn some business. The resulting sales may entice the sponsor to continue or possibly increase advertising dollars. The sponsor, the website, and the writer all benefit. This process has the ability to sustain itself naturally due to the high volume of diverse traffic on the Internet. Everyone involved has to play by the rules, though.

Become a freelance writer and create original articles for a content resource website. Allow non-exclusive rights to the articles so that the website may display your work, but ownership of the articles is not surrendered. Do your best work. Carefully choose topics that you are familiar with and also ones that people will enjoy reading. Use proper grammar and spelling. Proofread the articles several times before publishing and choose strong keywords to represent them.

Promote your articles using article directories, word-of-mouth advertising, blogs, and social networks. Continue to write and publish work as often as possible. Start friendships on the content resource website. Read and comment on their work frequently, but be honest in your review. Do not click the advertising links in your friends' articles or in your own articles. Let visitors from outside the community who have a genuine interest in the ads do that. Do not spam members of the content resource website or anyone else and ask them to read your articles. If your article is well-written, it will survive on its own merit and generate bountiful rewards. Most people appreciate when you read and comment on their work and will reciprocate.

Allow real, organic traffic from the search engines to find your articles over time and this natural process will continue to thrive. Companies will succeed and continue to sponsor the work of freelance writers. To use an analogy, if you are paid to advertise for a store and the potential customers walk in the door carrying your coupon, but nobody buys anything, it won't take long for your employment to end. Who do you want to give your coupons to, people with no intent of buying or possible customers? Similarly, when the members of an online community band together and click each others links or praise and promote work that is substandard, the entire community will eventually suffer and collapse. To protect the integrity of content resource web sites and to continue earning money each month, the members need to step up their game and rely on solid writing skills and hard work, rather than self-originated click-throughs, undeserved recommendation, and empty self-promotion. Change these things and we will all succeed together.
