Are you struggling to write articles consistently every day? If you are an affiliate marketer who depends on article marketing to generate affiliate income, this post is for you. Article marketing is definitely an essential part of affiliate marketing… when it is done right and consistently, you can drive lots of traffic to your squeeze pages and increase the size of your list.

However, to write articles consistently everyday is not an easy task. When you are online, there are just too much distractions: checking emails, going to Warrior Forum, checking website statistics, surfing websites, reading blogs, etc. And by the time you know, few hours have just passed by. Therefore, it is important for you to focus if you really want to see results from your article marketing effort.

There is a saying on the Internet that if you want to be good with article marketing, you need to churn out articles first. The benchmark of writing one article was set not more than 10 minutes, churning out at least 4 articles per hour, 8 articles per day. However, I beg to differ. I think that article marketing is not about how fast you can write an article (although if you can write fast and produce quality content, please carry on), it is about how quality the content is. Is your content interesting enough for your readers and entice them to find out more information on your site? Are you providing value to your readers with your articles? Are you writing articles that provide solutions to solve a particular problem in a niche market? Article Marketing 101 is to provide readers with value… once they feel that they have received value from your articles, they will definitely check out your website in your article byline.

So my suggestion to you is: do not rush to churn out those articles every day, you will just get sick and tried of writing someday. To begin with, tell yourself to spend at least 2 hours per day to write articles - 2 articles per hour. Give yourself a theme to write each day. For example, if you are into the fat loss niche, there are many different types of content you can write about. For example, losing stomach fat, losing love handles, dieting, getting a toned abs, exercises to lose weight, etc. Tell yourself that you will focus on 1 theme each day. Then, spend 1 hour to research the Internet and gather information about the theme.

Once you have gathered the necessary information, you will move on to write the articles. The trick here is, during that 2 hours that you are going to spend writing, do not surf net, check emails, read blogs etc.  Only write! 2 hours of writing each day is definitely manageable for anyone who has the desire to succeed in article marketing and make money online. Imagine: just by spending a total of 3 hours (1 hour of research, 2 hours of writing) to churn out 4 articles every day, how many articles can you churn out each month (provided you take Saturday and Sunday off)? That is a massive 80 articles per month!!! And you are only working 3 hours daily… can you see the impact those 80 articles can make to your affiliate income bottom line?

To succeed in article marketing, it is all about ACTION. When it is time to write, is time to write. Just do it. If you are new to article marketing, I know that it is hard for you to write the first few articles. However, article marketing is all about practices - the MORE you write, the BETTER you become. The FASTER you start to write your first article, the FASTER you will pick up the skill and reap the rewards.

So do not procasntinate anymore, start writing.
