Article Length:
Your article should be about three to five-hundred words. You need to be sure that you use enough words to give some quality content, but internet surfers have ADD and don’t spend too much time in one place. If your article has to be more than five-hundred words, then it is best to break the article in to one, two or three parts as you see fit. In fact, making your articles short enough to have good content but breaking them up helps you to get more one way links to your site. Two or three articles provides more one way links, of course.
Paragraphs:
Your paragraphs need to be short. They can actually be as short as one sentence long if you really want to make your point stand out. Don’t have long blocks of dense writing. People will run from your article rather read it. They want to breeze through your article picking up bite-sized chunks of information…they don’t want have to work hard. It is easier to keep track of where you are on the page too if the paragraphs are short.
Where to publish:
One-way link building is most effective if you publish your article on your own blog first. Get a WordPress blog. The software is free, it is powerful and it is fun to use. There are many plug-ins that are also free to let you customize your blog, too.
