Adding Content to Your Site

I really like making a new website and tweaking the design but I really don’t enjoy adding content! Nowadays you can’t get away with a ‘thin’ affiliate website. That is, a site with affiliate ads and almost nothing else. So a lot of time has to be spent adding content in order to rank well in the search engines.

Where do you find this content? Here are some ideas that I have found helpful. One thing to note, please don’t simply cut and paste from any of these sources. Not only is it stealing but it won’t so you any good as far as search engine ranking is concerned. Take the sources, extract useful information and write your own unique articles.

Addictomatic

Addictomatic

This is a great site. Put in a search term and a page is displayed with websites, blogs, bookmarks and more that feature your keyword. Results from Google blog search, Live search, Twitter, Digg, You Tube, Delicious, Yahoo news, Flickr and many more. The page is customisable for the sources. Once you have a page bookmark it and return to it next time you need some content for your site. Here’s one I did with the keyword ‘laptop’

Google News

google news

Search Google news with a keyword and find entries. Then click on the RSS feed button (in the address bar for firefox) and subscribe to the feed. Now you can see any relevant news items for your site without having to go to the Google news page every time. Here’s one I did for the keyword ‘digital camera’.

    However I believe you will get great content for any sites from ezines like ezinearticles.com , ideamarketers.com ,www.goarticles.com but ofcourse you may have to get the points there and do the content.

    Finally press release sites like PRweb.com provides you good news worthy content related to your nich..

    Cheers

    Content isn’t my thing either! I get writers block very easily. A great way to get content for your site is to develop a site where users deliver the content. For my example, a business directory. The businesses write the content for you. Its genious. Great article. Keep up the good work

    You are spot on that websites and blogs need to provide more interactive functions these days to develop a strong following. Whether your business is a practice for law, medical, or dental, marketing trends seem to be shifting towards adding video content, forums, and other value-added components. Monthly dental marketing can take quite some time in light of this requirement and is a major reason that many practices are now outsourcing this task.
