Ok, here’s a few quick pointers to make sure that your articles are winners every time:
1- Make your content useful, but incomplete.

The information in the article must be useful on it’s own, but it must also be incomplete so that it can be enhanced by purchasing your product. Just look at how TV programs are promoted using previews.

2- Your resource box must provide the reader with additional information to improve upon the article’s information.

For example: Provide a 3-step simple process based on one aspect of your product… “Three Steps To Making Great Sausages”.

Then in your resource box, lead them to your product…

John Citizen is the creator of Sausage Making Secrets, and has just created a special report called “10 Secrets To Gourmet Sausages”. Stop by SausageSecretsExposed.com and get your FREE copy today.

3- Introduce a problem at the start of the article, then solve it…

Sausages! Can’t make them fat free, can’t live without them. Arguably, the biggest problem facing sausage lovers today, is the usual high-fat content etc…

Ok, that wraps it up. Follow these three rules, and your articles should usually get results.
