If you want learn how to write articles that make money, you must learn to find a balance between speed and quality. Writing articles does take time…especially when you are not fully researched up on the topic. Can you find a good solution? How can you come up with articles quickly and at the same time create quality content that readers will actually read and benefit from?

Egg Timer + Digital Recorder = Article Speed Writing

Writing your article should only take 15 minutes to write a really good article and still have good, original content. For some of you, that would be a dream come true. Let me show you exactly how I use an Egg Timer and a Ditial Voice Recorder (any model will do, but I am using an Olympus DS-40 at the moment) to create top quality articles in minutes.

Tip #1: To write articles quickly, learn to gather research in bullet format on your digital recorder. There are lots of reasons why this is so effective, but I am going to name just one of them: bullet research makes creating outlines really easy. By bullet research I am referring to short one or two sentence “bursts” of information…no fluff, just really concise facts. This will become the foundation of your article research going forward, so don’t skip this step.

Truth is, instead of being hard, learning to write articles with an egg timer and a digital voice recorder is actually very easy…and may, in some sad, sick way, become mildly enjoyable.

By using the strategy below, you will quickly realize how easy it is to write 400-1000 word articles very quickly.

Step 1: Determine what topic you want to write for, then do your KEYWORD RESEARCH FIRST. Don’t skip this. Before you do a single search for content, KNOW what you are going to write about, and what keyword(s) you are trying to rank for.

Step 2: Set your egg timer for 3-5 minutes. (The better you get at this the less time you’ll need on this step.)

Step 3: Start your digital recorder and start devouring content…talk research bullets into your recorder. Record short bursts of information, not whole sentences or paragraphs.

Step 4: Visit as many sources of information as possible.

Step 5: STOP…as soon as the egg timer goes off, stop the recorder. Take a break for two minutes and think about what you just put into the recorder. Your subconcious mind will start thinking about the possible outline/order for this information.

Step 6: Put your research down in bullet points, EXACTLY in the order it was recorded. You’re just making a list of contents you recorded in wrong order. Don’t worry about duplicates, spelling, content, or anything else at this point. Just get those short burst bullets of information out of the recorder and on their own line.

Step 7: Now, go back and read each tip and start Copying/Pasting into some order for an outline.

Step 8: Now that you have an outline, it’s time to begin “fleshing” out some details. Now is the time to write, so set your egg timer for 10-15 mintes.
