Also show them how your authors are more successful in building click-throughs to their sites as they increase the number of articles they submit and have accepted.

In other words write something that demonstrates how success increases directly with the submission and acceptance of lots of articles.

Remind them again, as you have previously, that instead of writing large articles, authors should break them down into keyword-focused smaller articles.

Tell them why, even with 25,000 articles in your bank that it is not “competition” to any large degree when you consider that there are billions of pages out there on the web.

Authors need massive action (at least as a goal) to achieve the click-through traffic they want through the article-method.

Show them stats, stats on how important it is to send more article each month. Ask your coders to code for you automated emailers to authors with less than a number of articles sent.

And you could even add some few more success stories from the ones submitting regularly…

Oh, what am I talking… Hey don’t listen to me because that was I’m doing in my directory, automated follow-ups :D

It appears authors love to see their work in print or in “ones” and “Zeroes”. So promise them if they make the grade they will get ink or “digital” recognition. Think of all the boating magazines, family, science, self help, etc. magazines out there. Sponsor Contests, eventually it will get big and you will have sponsors for every category. You like my idea? Yes? No, then let’s here yours? Think about it.
