The Two Secrets To Achieve Writing Success

People always ask me for the one or two secrets to achieving success in marketing articles for income. Secret number 1, write. Secret number two, submit. That’s pretty much it. Of course there are many details that you need along the way: a properly constructed Resource Box, a great title, and a few other details. But, you need to write and submit.

Some days, I’ll write just one or two articles and I’ll submit them to my entire list of article submission sites, about 150. When I feel more energetic, I write four to five articles and submit them to a list of about sixty sites. On days when I'm really pumped up, I’ll crank out ten or more articles and submit them to my top 10 sites. I’d like to submit them to more sites, but I just don’t have the time when submitting that many articles.

It takes two or three hours to submit an article to my large 150 site list. I can submit to my 60 site list in about forty minutes. And I can submit an article to the short 10 site list in about ten or twelve minutes.

If you submit an article to 60 sites, you can expect to receive between 100 and 200 links over a six-month period. I’m quite happy with that. That’s one of the reasons that I write articles. The other reason is that I’m rather fond of money. I always have been, and I expect I always will be.

The people that ask me about the secret of success are what I call casual writers. They've written less than ten articles and submitted each one to just a few sites. They can’t believe that they didn’t make any money and they haven't witnessed increased traffic. In their mind, article marketing doesn’t work.

To be really successful writing articles, I’m talking about 6 figure successful, you need to write about 1000 articles per year. That’s three a day, every day!

I run my article business according to an old saying: “Work for a while like nobody will, live the rest of your life like nobody can!”
So get to work, write a few articles!
