2. I’m not a writer - I can’t write What special skills do you have that people want to know? If you’ve mastered your field or deal with customers, you’ve gained specific expertise. You help people make decisions. Answer their concerns. Certain problems come up time and again. And you know how to handle them—can explain them in your sleep. That makes you a natural to write how-to articles. Or checklists. Or tell a success story readers can learn from. In-depth "here’s what to do" articles are always in demand.

Do Not Write Articles for
Wrong Reason
Steer clear of these motivations. Too many articles are simply recycled information, served up without much food value. Those aren’t worth reading - or writing. No one is fooled when
article is a thinly-disguised promo piece that wastes
reader’s time. Equally bad are keyword packed articles written only for search-engine ratings.
To quote Christopher Knight’s ezinearticles.com blog (the 800# gorilla of article sites), "One class lower than SEO Authors, in terms of sophistication, is
new breed of what I call: "PR Article Authors". These are PR (Public Relations) drones who think they can just submit a press release as if it were an educational and informative article."
There’s an etiquette of what’s proper as well as a learning curve. But
rewards are worth
effort. And you’re building a new mental muscle. Just write a few articles and see what happens. You’ve got nothing to lose but your excuses.
