Intelligent Article Multiplication (Without Software)

This post is for people who would like to have a lot of articles to post and have high writing standards.

After following a number of threads here about article spinners and looking through various kinds of article reports on EzineArticles.com, I've come up with a few methods of multiplying articles easily and painlessly while still keeping the writing quality high.

I had written about 15 articles on one topic and got stuck. Then after trying an article spinning tool, the light bulb went on. Once I realized that it's fine for articles to overlap, I immediately saw ways to generate a couple dozen more articles. As far as I can tell, these principles apply to any topic you've already written on.

1. Redo themes you've already written on with a different article title and completely different examples. Here the outline and points are the same, but no sentences are exactly the same in both versions.

2. Take a positive theme and reverse it to negative and vice versa. So if you've written on five mistakes or pitfalls, turn that into five guidelines. If you've written five tips, turn that into five don'ts.

3. Where you've collected many do's and don'ts in one article, break them out in more depth, each point getting its own article-length treatment.

4. Look back through what you've already written to see if there's a casual comment you tossed in that you can expand into an article of its own. For instance, I'd mentioned the most common reasons people hired my company and now built articles around each of those reasons.

5. Go to EzineArticles.com and see which articles are most viewed in your category of interest. That's probably because of a particular keyword or phrase in the title, which people are searching for. Then build new articles around top keywords you can relate to, using ideas from some of your other articles.

Since I've writing professionally since 1981, once I have a new angle and an article idea, I can easily take it from there and turn out a new, interestingly written article that shares content with other things I've done but no identical or even similar sentences.

Mission accomplished. After the first five articles, I now know how to turn that into 40 or more, without boring readers or myself.

    Thanks for the list. Seems simple once someone else lays it out for you.

    This one definitely goes in my "anti-writer's-block" kit.

    Hi Marcia,

    Your techniques seems very interesting to me. As a new article writer i will definitely try your techniques.

    I have especially like your 2nd technique to turn the positive into negative and vice versa. It is really a cool idea

    this is what is great about a community, looking at what seems obvious to some is totally look at in different terms from someone else

    As a full time ghost writer I rarely suffer from writers block, or boredom, but a technique I usae sometimes especially when writing i na new niche, is to have a look at ezine articles and searhc for the generic topic, such as "rowing machines" and then look at how the top twenty articles have tackled it.

    However I am a great believer in keyword research and I use Market Samurai and then write articles on all the keywords that comes up and also use the converse kick.
    Great list though for those that do not like to write.

      I don't suffer from writer's block, either. It's quite a different thing to believe that you have exhausted a topic and then to realize that you actually have not.

      Great list though for those that do not like to write.
      I love to write. I have been writing since I was seven years old. However, my paradigm of writing is to write it once and go on to the next thing. Trying to write as much as possible on one topic is a different endeavor. That's what my post is intended to help with.
