      DO NOT bump your own thread. To answer your question, you really don't need to take a course on developing content. Just browse Google and you'll find a superfluity of opinions on the subject. Understand copyright law, fair use, and digital media. Most people have no idea, like the chap below who admits to stealing existing content and re-posting it. That's unacceptable behavior.

      Yeah that's a scumbag move. You're stealing content and re-posting it for your own gain. It's actually illegal, but that's clearly not stopping you. Plagiarism and Copyright Infringement. Look them up.

      I'd rather tell you an ugly truth than a pretty lie.

    Well its not plagiarism if you just re-write it. Plagiarism occurs when a writer duplicates another writer's language or ideas and then calls the work his or her own. Literally word by word. THATS plagiarism. as the bloke states he "re-writes" it. so in a way he avoids the plagiarizing. Technically thats LEGAL.

    But i really dont promote that kind of way, i like to keep content original as possible. Its uniform in that sense. When i write content i usually browse around articles similar to my niche. Understand how they format and outline it. Then pick up from there. Take a few clauses here and there but make sure to quote it and provide reference.

      Yes it is.

      Look up 'derivative content' under international copyright law

        You can develop a knack for writing good content by reading good content...over and over again.

        Seek out reputable Writers who have a proven track record of writing effectively and "profitably"!

        Go to Sites like Copyblogger - Content Marketing Mastery and learn, absorb, retain, and implement

          Copyblogger is an excellent resource. I still use them every once in a while and I've been writing content for years! They have some great free ebooks too.

          But the best way is to just read a lot of good content and practice, practice, practice.

          I'd avoid rewriting other people's content. It's a HUGE gray area as far as copyright goes. You then start getting into issues of fair use, derivitive works, etc. It is not a cut and dry subject. As courts decide new cases, interpretations of the laws change. Only a lawyer specializing in copyright law can give a good answer here. I'd just stay away from it.

    I don't think you need to take a course and if you do there are many of them out there. I think the way to create content fast is just to create content fast.

    You are already making the first mistake in creating content fast and that is to overthink it. When you think too much about the quality of your writing first, you spend more time looking for your mistakes instead of writing. To write faster you need to be writing every single day.

    What I just said is basically what most writing courses will tell you.

    Three tips for you:

    1. Outline Your Content
    2. Write As Fast As You Can Without Thinking
    3. Edit only after you have completed writing your content

    Don't think about it just sit down and make it happen. It's the only way to create content faster.

      Don't know one, but you can get quick content out of doing interviews (the other person will come up with most of the content).

      And you can get lots of extra "Modules" from a single interview: powerpoint,
      mindmaps, transcripts and so on.

    Haven't come across one.

    But if you're looking to create content fast for products...

    Nothing has been faster than doing audio (can create products in under an hour).
