When I started writing articles, I was struggling to find useful information on how to write articles. I did not know how to embed the keywords properly that get me website traffic or high rankings in Google.

1.) Before you start writing your article, have the goal in mind to get website traffic. What do people want to know about your topic? What do you know what they may be don´t? Create valuable information. People look for an introduction, a body and a conclusion in an article.

2.) Jump right into writing the article body .Write the first paragraph at last. After finishing the article, you write the first paragraph 81-3 sentences). It is like a small summary of what the article will be about. If you do it this way, it will be easier for you. Make sure you really write about what your title promises.

3.) Give people what they want, just not all of it Provide them valuable information with your article, which really helps them.

4.) Skip the conclusion. If you want, you can write the conclusion, but throw it away. Instead, you write about your bio and send them for more information to your page. Anyway, you can´t teach or explain something in a 250-500 word article. The article gives a great taste of what is about to come on your page. If people are interested, they will want to know more and visit your page.

5.) Pick a topic for your article and create 10 subtopics. Ask 10 questions about your topic and write 10 articles about them.

6.) Keep the article short to the minimum requirement like 250-500 words.

7.) Split longer articles into two.

8.) In order to get website traffic you need to pick one keyword or keyword phrase that you researched with Google's keyword tool. This keyword has to have under 30.000 searches. You will be writing your article around that 1 keyword phrase and mention it 5-6 times in the article. Remember, your content must make sense.

9.) Use bullet points or numbering and add breaks every few lines, it is easier to read.

10.) Never stop writing articles. Write 5 articles a week or outsource the writing.

One last note:
The most important thing about writing articles is your title.
Because the title attracts people and the search engines to your article or it does not.
Especially the first 4-5 words of the title are very important.
