As someone that hates to write articles, I've put together a system that makes writing decent quality, original content about as easy as possible.It does cost money, but I think it's better than outsourcing in most cases, and cheaper in the long run.
And this isn't a good system for just writing an article or two...It's better for writing 10-20 DIFFERENT articles quickly.
Here's what you need:
- A ton of PLR/Public Domain content downloaded to your PC.
It's best if these are truly PLR or public domain and that you have writes to them.
- Hard Disk Search FREE
http://www.harddisksearch.com/
This is a free program that will search the contents of text files in folders on your hard drive. It lets you search for multiple words/phrases at once and tells you how many occurances for each keyword that each article has.
It doesn't index and store these files, so it has to search all your articles each time. This can take a few minutes if you have 100,000 articles or so.
You can use something like Google desktop search, but I strongly recommend you not using anything related to Google that will index what is on your hard drive.
Instead, make a plan and get HD Search running with you main keywords while you set the rest up.
