Get Rich Quick Working From Home!!!!

Ok, we aren't really going to get rich quick but all of us are all trying to make money by writing articles. Staying in our comfortable homes, no commuting, cheaper car expenses, and a chance to have more time with our families. Writing articles seems to be the perfect way to bring us closer to that dream job of waking up and not having to go anywhere except to our computers, another day of creative writing. The biggest problem I see, is we can write all we want to, but if no one ever reads it, then it is all in vain.
There is so much competition on the Internet for "views", and writing articles is really like having your own business.  Now what business can survive with out some kind of marketing strategy?
Getting your articles noticed and read is a challenging thing.  Following the advice of others, I have started posting all of my articles onto StumbleUpon and Digg. Does this help us? Well StumbleUpon itself has over 8,000,000 users. That is a lot of people out there with time on their hands surfing the net, and I think having your articles out there for them to "stumble upon" is a good thing.
There are so many well written articles on eHow on how to get the views we all want and deserve, here are only a couple of them...

Some other ways to help market your articles is to add a signature to the bottom of your emails with a link to your eHow or other writing place.  Make use of the eHow widget and add it to your blog, facebook or other social networking sites you may use.
It's time for all of us, myself included, to start taking charge and learning about marketing ourselves if we want to have a successful Internet business.

  1. Hi David,
    Thanks for stopping by my blog earlier. I have found that using StumbleUpon and Digg and some of the other social networking sites do help to increase article views. At Suite101, they actually show you where your clicks are coming from and I usually generate 100-200 clicks right away from StumbleUpon when I place the article there. Join as many as you can tolerate and watch the views go up!
