Articles should be formatted to 65 characters per line or less including spaces and written in short paragraph sections. When you begin writing your article, avoid using your standard word processing programs, as they do not allow for proper formatting. Instead, use a text editor such as NotePad. It should already be installed on your desktop. This will enable the publisher to easily copy and paste your article into their publication and significantly increase your chances of being published.
Most publishers receive many article submissions each week and only select a few to be published.
Once you've written your article, you'll need to develop a list of publishers that may be interested in publishing it. Contact the publisher and ask them if they accept article submissions. Not only will it provide you with free publicity, but if your articles are good, you'll become a trusted professional in your area of expertise. The site assists the entrepreneur in developing a serious Web presence by providing a wealth of free information, resources, tools and content.
