Running and developing an internet business requires fresh content for your site on a regular basis. Daily if possible. Fresh content articles lures your prospects to your site by quenching their thirst for information and knowledge.

So what are your options if you simply hate to write?

First of all, if you just don’t like writing and you don’t want to hire someone to write for you, you can get a lot of free articles online. One place to look is at public domain articles. Copyright infringement is not an issue with public domain articles.

The public domain consists of writings, articles, books, etc. with copyrights that have expired. Original copyrights only last for a specified number of years. When the copyright isn’t extended, due to the death of an author or simply abandonment of the work, the copyright expires and it becomes available in the public domain. These are works that were once published for profit and, as such, grammar and writing is usually of a very high standard. You should check copyright laws in your country for more information.

The flipside of using public domain articles is that your competition may also be using them. But you should be able to verify this easily enough in the search engines. You may have to edit them a little in order to put your keywords and phrases in appropriately. Additionally, be sure that they pertain to your niche topic.

Another way to get free articles is to allow other sites which have similar content to submit articles to your site. Most bloggers today do utility posting which is exactly this. They use content from other blogs and give the blog a trackback (link).

Now, you might be saying — wait a minute, I don’t want links to other sites on my site! Well, if that’s what you think, you’re a little behind the curve because that’s exactly what Web 2.0 is all about! Google knows this and is now serving up pages based primarily on their social popularity. Google weighs other parts of the site as well, but always remember that social populariaty is VERRRRY important!

So, forget about keeping all the links to yourself and start sharing as much as you can.

Here’s the best part of this article and the main reason I decided to write it. Due to Web 2.0 popularity, many services are becoming popular that help us all share articles and links. I belong to one that not only sends “unique” articles that I write to approximately 600 article directories and blog sites, but, as a subscriber, I receive as many unique articles every day as I choose. You can also subscribe to simply receive articles if you don’t wish to write.

It’s not expensive and well worth the small monthly fee for the number of links I’m seeing in Google on a daily basis. It’s absolutely the greatest method Im aware of to help share links and obtain unique content regularly. It’s very easy to post to all of my blog sites now. I choose how many articles to receive each day as well as the categories, and, I choose whether or not to put them on my blog. After all, not everyone can write good content! Cruddy writing gets deleted.

Just one more thing I also want to point out as far as where to get good content for your articles. There are many sites online that offer what are called Private Label Articles that you can publish and take credit for yourself. You can even rewrite them if you like. In fact, that’s how this article came about. I have no problem writing, but by using a PLR article to start with, the ideas flow easier and I don’t have to come up with all original content.
