Stop
for one moment and think about the following question.
What is the GOAL of any writing?
The answer is that the goal of any writing is to achieve something.
The writing, regardless of being an article, a book, press release,
report, business letter, medical journal or love letter, is to let the
reader feel something that benefit you in some way.
A writer wrote a book for entertainment purposes yes, but the goal is
that as much people as possible feel a desire to buy that book to the
financial as well as other benefit of the author. (If many people
bought many books of a particular author he/she becomes popular and
merely his/her name alone would become good enough to sell more books)
A journalist or freelance columnist wrote news and other articles
because it's their job. The better their news, columnist and other
articles the more popular they become with accompanying increase of
salary, earnings and recognition. (The same also apply for newspapers
and magazines. They don't write articles themselves but they USE the
articles of their journalists and freelance columnists to earn money)
With a business letter, press release and such things the goal is to
let the company earn more money by for example to arrange a deal, ask
someone to pay their debt and inform more people about their products
and services.
With a medical and other types of journals and publications it may be
that the author perhaps don't get money from his/her article, but he
benefit from the increased status, recognition and prestige as doctor,
scientist and expert in his specific field that in turn leads to
increased income.
With a love letter there is perhaps never money involved but it's all
about the emotional and personal benefits that you, or the other
person, can get out of such letter. You simply don't write a love
letter if you don't feel anything for that person and that person
doesn’t feel anything for you too.
Content, the articles, news and information, are the same
Simply use the content what you write as a goal to achieve various
things. You must decide beforehand WHAT you want to achieve and based
on that purpose start to write an article.
Post as much information about your town as possible. The goal is to
achieve a TOP ranking for each town portal so that YOU can benefit
from the marketing power thereof and the only way how to do that
is with a lot of articles with the name of the town, and variations
thereof if possible, in such articles. (Where the name of your town is
the KEYWORD)
Post as much interesting articles as possible. The goal is to attract
as much visitors as possible by provide them with interesting,
valuable and helpful information because if they like your articles
they will start to trust you and what you have to offer.
Post as much goal specific articles as possible. The goal is to
provide many articles about various things what directly and/or
indirectly benefit you as business owner. The goal of one article can
be to explain the benefits of a domain name, the goal of another
article to praise the value of having your own website to promote a
business while another series of articles teach people and businesses
about web hosting, the benefits, how to do this or that and such
things.
Simply put, writing articles, news and content is all about mind games
where you must write in such way that you one way or another benefits
from it.
The two most important benefits are firstly promotional and
secondly financial in nature.
Promotion always comes before any financial benefit so the more
articles you write to promote that benefit the town portal promotional
wise, the more will your financial benefits be at a later stage.
The secret of the mind game of writing articles is to make the article
useful, interesting or valuable, in a subtle way leads the reader to
the real goal behind the article and then close the article with an
appropriate signature.. |
