Got questions? Here are some answers.
1. What Are Web Articles?
Web articles are a form of advertising -- they're short articles which are written directly for the web. They're meant to be published online, nowhere else.
Businesses with websites buy these articles to increase their website's chances of being found via the search engines.
Unlike print articles, which are meant to be read with full attention, web articles are meant to be skimmed. Online, people want information quickly. If your article doesn't get to the point immediately, it's easy to hit the Back button.
Web articles are different from those written for print in many other ways -- they often include hyperlinks for example.
Primarily it's important to realize that although your articles are not written for the search engines (they're written for site visitors), they are however written with the search engines in mind, so you'll be asked to include keywords in your articles.
2. Who Buys the Articles You Write?
Your articles are purchased by businesses, large and small. Generally speaking, large companies require your articles to be of a higher quality than small businesses with smaller budgets. (They pay more for that quality.)
That said; there's no writing down involved when you write for smaller companies. Your aim is to write to the best standard you can. In general, the standard of web article online is low; this is good news for new writers. It means that you don't need extensive experience to write articles for the web.
3. How Do You Get Started?
Familiarize yourself with the articles you see online. Choose a couple of websites you enjoy reading, and check out their articles. Can you pick the keywords? Can you see other ways in which their articles are different from the articles you might find in a magazine?
It's easy to get started writing articles. Check the About page on your favorite sites. You'll find requests for articles on many sites, and this is your chance to build a whole new work from home career.
