What makes an author so popular? Is it the way they write or what they write about? If I had to guess, I would say both to a lesser or greater extent.

Sometimes there is so much to write about on a topic that the volume of information alone would result in a book more than an article. The solution is to write an article series in order to break the information up into manageable sub topics.

Unless an author's article is featured in the newspaper or in a popular magazine, the chances of it getting the desired coverage by a niche readership is slim to none, unless steps are taken to target a certain market.

How do you know what will catch someone's eye as they are surfing the Internet for specific information? Failure to know may be the difference in your article being passed over or read.

Writing an article for the sake of including a link to your website is counterproductive. It risks being rejected and fails to built your credibility.

Many people experience anxiety when it comes time to writing. They think their writing has to be letter perfect to be good enough for publishing.

Like a puzzle you did when you were a kid, start with the frame and work inward

What makes one article more compelling than another? The truth is that it is really a very individual thing. Sort of how beauty is in the eye of the beholder.
