Process of Creating Content

I’ll walk you through the process of creating an article, from concept to completion. After you follow each step and complete this section, you’ll have the tools and knowledge to get started. Plus, you’ll have a complete article written and ready for submission.

You’ll find tips on creating high paid content, research secrets, writing the best headlines, templates for content, and techniques that pay.

Here’s the Article Creation Flow Chart to show you the necessary steps to get paid for your content.



The Paid Insider Outline

Whether you’re writing 500 words or 1000 words, the outline will be your ultimate time saver. It’ll help you organize your thoughts, research, and information so you get your article submitted to the sites in 60 minutes or less.

In a traditional article, there are often three basic ideas, or concepts. These are the main points you’re trying to get across. You can always add more concepts or use less depending on how much information fits in each concept.

Here’s an example of a traditional article structure.

• Introduction
• Concept #1 in detail
• Concept #2 in detail
• Concept #3 in detail
• Conclusion

These concepts are broken down and further explained, proved, and elaborated upon in the form of key points. Your outline looks like this:

Concept #1 Key Points - the more key points, the easier it’ll be to write the article
*
*
Concept #2 Key Points
*
*
Concept #3 Key Points
*
*
Other Interesting Points/Facts
*
*
You’ll find the Paid Insider Outline in the Toolbox. Print it out and start filling in the key points of one of your three profitable topics. Be sure you choose the topic you can easily talk about without having to look up any information.

Outline To Article

Personally, I’ve spent a lot of time on Myspace, so writing about how to create a cool profile will be easy for me. I’ve thought about all the things that you can add to a Myspace profile and they are: games, cursors, layouts, clocks, surveys, graphics, and codes. Now that I have my concepts, I brainstorm the key points and write them down. Since I have seven concepts, I’m not going to worry about adding too many key points.

Concept #1 - Games
