The Article Writer

There are still a few days left in the year, but at present count my article writing “campaign” exceeds 430 articles published by article directories and at least another 1100 articles or excerpts that I wrote privately for clients.

I only began this “campaign” in April 2005 as I discovered that article submission sites are a great and free way to gain publicity, to market what I do, to build up search engine optimization, etc.

At the end of May I launched my The Article Writer site and this site, coupled with all of my article submissions, has generated a significant portion of my work, particularly since August.

Finally, I joined Guru as still another way to market myself. In retrospect Guru hasn’t produced at the level that I had hoped it would; on the other hand my own site has kept me going rather nicely.

I appreciate everyone who has utilized my services during 2005 and I look forward to providing additional exemplary service to you during 2006. Feel free to contact me directly for a free, no obligation quote.

The day after Christmas is difficult for many people. Gone is all the anticipation as family and friends are welcomed into our homes, even if just for the day, but they soon leave ready to resume their lives or simply to prepare for the coming new year.

In the United Kingdom as well as in other Commonwealth nations the day after Christmas is a legal holiday, Boxing Day, so a little bit of extra rest is available to all who take it.

Fortunately Christmas fell on a Sunday this year, so that means even in the U.S. the day after is a legal holiday. I am enjoying the extra time off to spend with my family and to reflect on the season. I hope that you are too!

A very Merry Christmas to you and yours!

In the Christmas spirit, which I believe should be invoked every single day of the year, I am making a little plug for an organization I wholeheartedly endorse, Compassion International. Compassion is a child advocacy organization built upon Christian principles. Children who are part of this program are assisted spiritually, physically, socially, and economically; for many of them their lives would be severely restricted without the assistance of Compassion partners and sponsors.

For about one dollar per day you can make a difference in the life of one child. We have so much, they have so little…would you consider sponsoring a child starting in January 2006? Thank you and blessings to you and yours!
