The marketing world was turned upside down with the advent of high quality content marketing.
In years past you could garner some SEO link juice by submitting articles to large database type sites that published almost anything regardless of quality.
Today the landscape has changed. Google has penalized low quality article submission sites and the websites that embrace them. In place, smart marketers have bee rewarded with inbound links, website visitors, leads and sales by creating high quality content that is so good that the people who read it want to share it.
The type of content you might create would include: blog posts, guest blog posts, long-form articles, white papers, case studies, eBooks and more.
Creating a lot of high quality content is not a one man or one woman job. Hiring a high quality article writing service can really help boost your production.

How to write a Blog
One of the best ways to increase traffic to your site is to blog. It’s also one of the scariest and most intimidating social media options. It involves good writing skills and a lot of research. The key to a great blog is content content content, and an interesting title that will get someone to stop what they are doing and read what you have to say. You see this all the time on facebook, “YOU WON’T BELIEVE WHAT SHE FOUND WHEN SHE OPENED THIS BAG OF CHIPS”. Now tell me you aren’t going to click on that to see what she found! There is a formula for good blog writing that anyone can do. You can do it yourself, or have one of our qualified article writers do it for you. Follow this formula to write your blog.
- The blog needs a point
- What is the overall message you want to get across to the reader?

- Images
- Blog must have pictures
- Your goal is to add strategic images that help your readers, and enhance your content.

- Conclusion: Wrap up the article with a call to action.
- Unique content
- DO NOT COPY AND PASTE

- Substantial length
- A good blog is around 1,000 to 1,500 words in length

- Make sure spelling and grammar is correct
- Proofread the article before you post it, have a copy editor look over it if you are worried that you might have some grammatical errors.

Article Writing Service vs. Employee:
You could hire an employee to help you with this work, but do you really have enough article writing tasks to fill up 40 hours per week or even 20 hours per week every single week? If not, that employee will be spending down time on your dime.
With a virtual assistant from an article writing service you pay only for what you need and nothing more.
You’ll save money by not having to provide employee benefits, office space, office supplies (computer, desk, coffee and so on) or any of the other things that come with full or part-time employees.
Your virtual assistant will come with his or her own supplies, a strong education (TaskBullet assistants have university degrees) and a deep professional background in writing.
In addition, when you hire a virtual assistant to help with article writing services from TaskBullet you are also assigned a US-based project manager to ensure that everything runs smoothly.
