One common question… How could I make money writing – I dont know how to write. Believe it or not it’s not a big deal if you are not a professional writer. Most of the blogger were never a writer and started writing only after they found Internet age. There are some tips need to be followed if you want to understand how to write an article. And it is not only about professional writer, there are many guys who are good at writing but spend couple of hours to write one post. And if you want to be a true blogger working in spare time, you have a develop the habit of writing in a much lesser time. What I always belive is you need to make atleast one post a day to keep the visitor keep coming to your blog. And if you have no time, you need to develop style to write one post as per your time availability (I think half an hour for an article should be doable)
You definitely should not compromise with the quality and start writing junk. You need to write value for your reader in the defined time frame. One tips could be writing short post, may be 400-500 words that should defnitiely accomodate in half an hour. So lets understand the tips which we can follow to write an article in the minimal time without compromising on the quality.
(1) Think of an outline, this can be done at any time even during your regular job and might not include the defined time frame of writing a post. List down the ideas and make a note whenever it comes in your mind. Writing article is all about an idea, if you can think of an outline, its very easy to write an article.
(2) Give some time to develop the ideas. Once defined the basic idea, think about it seriously and start making important point related to that and do not forget to add it in your diary whenever it comes to you. No need to think too much and ass too many points because you have to keep in mind the restriction is word limit (say 400-500). The ideal post should have structure of Introduction, body, conclusion, resources and resource box.
(3) Whenever you get time, sit down and start writing. Dont think to get all the point and then start writing. This could be one of the major reason for not writing on time. I have seen that once I start writing and write for 2 minutes, the flow comes in automatically and it gets done. So keep a deadline of half an hour and write in the best possible way as per defined list and outline.
(4) Dont be in rush to publish it immediately. Once done, take a break and review the article later to give it a final touch.
(5) Use bullet point, if your choosen subject allows for this. Normally we tend to write all important points if we follow bullet points and its also maked it easier to read for visitor.
(6) After writing your post, do not forget to do spell check, then read it throughly a few times to check for spelling mistakes the spell checker may have missed and to correct the grammar and punctuation.
(7) You also need to make sure that the post identify the problem, provide the solution and conclude with an action step or steps. If possible ask your friend or spouse to read it. Believe me they are sure to find out the mistakes what you missed.
(8) Before you post, make sure to do the proper formatting. Where it should be bold / italics or It should be left aligned or justify alignment. The sentence should not be too long to read. An ideal sentence should not exceed 60-70 words.
In general, I do not follow this practice all the time and dont limit my post to 400-500 words. The average is 1000+ words but this time I made sure to follow the mentioned rule and it took me exact 18 minutes to finish it off. If I can repeat this, I am not going to restrict myself writing one post a day.

I think you’re articles are good. Before this article,I read your list of 35 get paid to write sites. However, the two articles I’ve read could use some grammatical improvements. Mainly in using the singular form where the plural should be used.
For example in the first paragraph above you say “Most of the blogger were never a writer and started writing only after they found Internet age. ” If it were grammatically correct, it would likely read something like this “Most of the bloggers were never writers and started writing only after they found Internet age.”
Proper Grammar improves the quality of your article and you can easily average an article per day checking for correct grammar. If you write your articles in Microsoft Word, it has a spell-checker and a grammar checker.
We all make grammatical errors. It is worth checking out a grammar book from your local library and reading it. The grammar book I have checked out would likely tell you to write the sentence I quoted this way. “Most bloggers were never writers and only started writing after they found the Internet age.”
