Tips on Creating Quality Content Fast

12 replies
I looked around the forum but couldn't find any info on the subject. I was wondering what systems do you use to quickly come up with quality content?

I usually just let myself talk into a mic. aboutthe idea, than I listen to it. If I like it, I transcribe it, If not I rewrite it, but talking it out helps me realize what is that I am trying to say.

After my rought draft I let it sit for a while, and come back to it to proofread later.

Finally I have my GF go over it to polish it up.

Usually that way a quality post takes about 1-2 hours of total work.

Sometimes it helps me to make an outline of ideas before I talk.

Anyway, I was wondering if anybody would are to ahare their ideas for fast bit quality content creation.

      It starts with either a deep-seated knowledge of the subject or the ability to do very good research. Without one of those two things, any content is going to be mediocre, at best.

      The actual construction of the content depends on the purpose behind it and how long the content needs to be. I like outlining for most things as it helps to structure the piece and keep me focused.

        Tina nailed it!

        And since I'm writing a report on this very topic right now, I just had to chime in. You've got to have the foundational knowledge to create a great product. If it's part of what you do for a living... or a passionate hobby or interest of yours, you're probably already well-versed on the topic. When that's the case, product creation can be super-fast.

        That's how Dan Kennedy can create a 12-CD program on marketing, info-publishing, copywriting and who knows what else in a single day. He knows his stuff, develops a simple outline based on the questions he gets asked most, then sets out to record it. In a day or two, he's got a finished product that typically sells for several hundred dollars per copy.

        You've got to have quality information before you begin - even if you're writing a short article. If you're not up to speed, do your research, as Tina suggests.

        As for outlines, I strongly suggest them. Mind-mapping is a great way to begin any new project. In a matter of minutes, you can generate a whole bunch of ideas and capture them on a single page. But you'll need to organize these before your create your product if you really want to rock.

        Outlines are a huge advantage. But if you try to write them without first brainstorming your ideas, you'll probably end up frustrated. With a detailed outline, you've got the essence of your product right before your eyes. That's when you can simply launch into the presentation phase and enjoy the magic of product creation in a stream of consciousness way.

    I come up with a list of ideas that I update whenever I need to.

    Then, when I'm inspired to write (or my schedule inspires me ), I pick a topic and flesh it out into an outline. Under each heading, I come up with two or three points. Then I write from first section to last, then the conclusion, then the intro.

    The other method I sometimes use when doing a group of articles on similar subjects is to come up with some weird, unique, or cool keyword/theme for each article and develop an intro and conclusion for the first, intro and conclusion for the second, etc. Then I outline the middles and go back to fill them in, one article at a time.

    Both methods work brilliantly for articles.

    • What Cameron Alex suggested.

      Though if you're already using a mic, you might want to look into a program called Dragon Naturally Speaking, it will automatically transcribe everything you talk into your mic. Nice time saver, though a bit expensive. However, that way, you'll get a lot of content done in short time.

    Searching for questions people ask on the internet, forums, search engines seems to be a great place to start. I always wrote my own content fast but just recently realized had to find out what people ask on forums, Google, yahoo answers and so on. You write the answers down, organize it, create articles, video articles, Mp3 and later an e-book. Also can hold a questions and answers webinar that is a free content, too.

  • Well, I'll give you a taster of what I do for blog posts.

    As well as writing a blog post, I'll also write related items - such as promotional articles, and emails for my list. Because these are being written in conjunction with each other, they can each be written much quicker.

    It's all about generating a good effort to reward ratio and that's something you have to remember when producing any type of content.

    Outsourcing is the way to go when you can get a full time worker for $25 dollars a week why would you sit there and try and do it yourself, I write some stuff but I am not a writer and its much easier to hire a professional writer for that price.

    Outsourcing is good, having knowledge about what you want to write is better and checking what people are really looking for is the best. Check yahoo answers, in fact this is my favourite site to write whatever i want to write, just take your time to browse through the categories you will definitely see what will inspire you,

      If you're in a health-related niche, a great place for article ideas and the latest info is PubMed. I get great ideas in medical journals. I also source my info with footnotes or links, which in my view, adds cred to any article.

      I find going to primary sources in journals (there are non-health journals as well) offers unique and up-to-date content that makes for fantastic articles.

      As for structuring articles, I try to squeeze as many posts out of one topic as possible. I, too am an outliner - always jotting down ideas. I have a .txt doc on my desktop which is always open for brainstorms. I always have more topics/outlines than time to actually write everything into polished articles.
