Incredibly Bad Articles Will Kill Your CredibilityWritten by Dean Phillips
I've noticed a disturbing trend recently of writers writing articles suggesting that people write articles to send traffic to their websites, and enhance their credibility. In theory, more articles you write, more traffic you'll receive, more credibility you'll have, more sales you'll make.It's an interesting theory. However, what those articles fail to mention is that your writing needs to be of a certain quality. And quite frankly, I'm seeing a proliferation of poorly written--or just plain bad articles appearing across Internet! Unfortunately, there are some publishers out there who will publish just about anything. That's good news. The bad news is, those publishers don't have quality websites or huge traffic numbers, so your article probably won't be seen by too many people anyway. So, in essence, you're really wasting your time writing garbage, because you're not going to reap benefits that go along with writing quality content. Remember this saying, "garbage in, garbage out!" To get published in top ezines and on top websites-- one's with mega traffic, you need to have your act together. Publishers of top ezines and websites aren't stupid, and so desperate for content that they'll just publish anything that's submitted to them. Their credibility is at stake everytime they publish. They have standards and their readers have come to expect a certain degree of excellence from them.

The internet is considered a god-send by many people all over globe. Never before has such an opportunity been placed on table for your taking. Where else could you set up a business transcending borders for fifty dollars a month or less.Opportunities abound everywhere you turn nowadays online, just name it there is a way for you to turn a profit. Newsletters, store fronts, affiliate programs and content sites are just a few examples of diverse choices our there. At turn of millennium when I first got involved on net there were far fewer websites then. Now there are a vast variety of websites on different topics all vying for attention from web surfers. Because of this growth you can ensure that competition for traffic is stiff. One very important thing of note is that one’s success is not guaranteed online. Business online should be approached in same professional manner as one would offline. Since building my first website I have been through countless setbacks, I once lost seven months worth of subscribers in one fatal click. Setbacks are natural though, important thing is to move ahead through fog and mist even with uncertainty. Passion is also very important to success process. My passion initially was to offer best website about my hometown, not to make money. Profit is just a by-product. That passion has been realized and even though I don’t make money by bucket loads, I feel fulfilled.
