Suggestions:
1. Make what you say “conversational” – not “writing”- as in a formal paper. In other words talk WITH your reader. Say something like: “I can almost hear you asking me…”
2. Simply write as if you were speaking with your reader in person, which, in a sense, you are.
3. State the problem. Give a solution. Call for action.

Great advice! I have to admit, though, for someone coming from an academic environment, where validating ideas and concepts with references is an absolute requirement to not showing them at all is a bit of a mental leap!

I really like the conversational tone in EzineArticles, though!

After around 12 months and 31 EzineArticles later, we have these articles published 61 times on other websites.

This translates into even more traffic to our websites.

Thanks for the above tips, and also thanks to the other comments above – they have also contributed additional tips!

The “Articles Published” statistic in your account shows how many times people have clicked on the “EzinePublisher” button on your article.

This doesn’t guarantee that they published your article, but it does indicate that they had interest in publishing your article.

There is no tracking provided for who and when your articles are republished. I would suggest possibly using Google Alerts to help identify this for you: http://Google.com/alerts/

Great information.

It is definitely more practical to write articles that are evergreen so that readers will always learn something from the article.

This will also mean the article will be the lifetime agent that will helps to drive traffic back to the website.

Thanks for sharing :)

Thanks for more good tips, as always.

I love seeing where my articles get published. Sometimes I can’t figure out WHY they were chosen for certain blogs, since they don’t fit the rest of the subject matter, but I guess that’s OK.

It’s too bad those publishers don’t understand that they don’t need to alter the copy – and I wish they woudn’t when they leave my name attached.

I’m still giggling, however. One changed my resource box statement that my husband is a retired home builder to saying that he is an “old bag builder.”

Don’t know how a home became a bag, but…

Anyway, as always, I thank you for offering this resource for us to reach so many people.

lol!! They were probably using translation software that went from like English–>Spanish–>German–>English.

I’ve seen tools like that out there.

Hopefully your links were left intact.

Over the 60-odd articles I have posted on EzineArticles.com, the ones with the highest clickthrough have the lowest publishing stats and those with the lowest clickthrough have the highest publishing stats. Go figure.

My experience so far is that when I’m writing for a market that considers itself technical (healthcare for example) I can get articles “published” or picked up by other sites by keeping them short (
