mothers day

In commemoration of Mother's Day that falls on each of December 22, TP PKK-led Tapsel District Mariana Mrs. P Hasibuan back Ongku held various activities as a form of respect for the service and the role of mothers in raising a family and nation-building.

Answering reporters' questions Sunday, (20/12), Mrs Mariana Ongku Hasibuan said it held a variety of social action, this is in line with the vision of the district Tapsel Tapsel society realize a just, prosperous and prosperous.

This activity is an annual event which is routinely carried out Tapsel PKK as a form of concern for the struggles of mothers in the family. The activities undertaken include cheap market held three staples in 12 districts, giving awards to mothers who had been instrumental considered to Tapsel in 12 districts, the radio talk show on KISS FM, the PKK regional consultation meeting related to the PKK movement Unity Day In 2009, cooking contest, fashion show contest, exhibition of ritual and the mother-H ibupada day on 22 December at Padangsidimpuan Hajj Dormitory.

Mrs. Mariana also explained, TP PKK Tapsel with his new paradigm, always trying to implement programs that direct contact with the public interest much. It aims to help improve the family economy, family and environmental health family education.

According to achieving prosperity of a region should start from the smallest component of the family environment itself. Therefore, the existence of various domestic industries programs undertaken with agencies related to the family hoped to motivate others to do the same thing, so that families can be helped the economy.

Expected to be held TP PKK activities, the mothers in the districts and villages can be helped, "with all its limitations, TP PKK will do all it can to contribute and help think about the economic burden of mothers in rural areas, including market operations three basic food ingredients This "said Mrs. Mariana Ongku P Hasibuan.

Singing is the act of producing musical sounds with the voice, and

Singing is the act of producing musical sounds with the voice, and augments regular speech by the use of both tonality and rhythm. A person who sings is called a singer or vocalist. Singers perform music known as songs that can either be sung a cappella (without accompaniment) or accompanied by musicians and instruments ranging from a single instrumentalist to a full symphony orchestra or big band. Singing is often done in a group of other musicians, such as in a choir of singers with different voice ranges, or in an ensemble with instrumentalists, such as a rock group or baroque ensemble. Nearly anyone who can speak can sing, since singing resembles sustained speech.

Singing can be informal and done for pleasure; for example, singing in the shower or karaoke; or it can be very formal, as in the case of singing during a religious ritual such as a Mass or professional singing performances done on stage or in a recording studio. Singing at a high amateur or professional level usually requires innate talent, instruction, and regular practice.[1] Professional singers usually build their careers around one specific musical genre, such as Classical or rock, they typically take voice training provided by a voice teacher or vocal coach throughout their career.

animal

Animals are a major group of mostly multicellular, eukaryotic organisms of the kingdom Animalia or Metazoa. Their body plan eventually becomes fixed as they develop, although some undergo a process of metamorphosis later on in their life. Most animals are motile, meaning they can move spontaneously and independently. All animals are also heterotrophs, meaning they must ingest other organisms for sustenance.

Most known animal phyla appeared in the fossil record as marine species during the Cambrian explosion, about 542 million years ago.

Etymology

The word "animal" comes from the Latin word animal. In everyday colloquial usage, the word usually refers to non-human animals.[1] Frequently only closer relatives of humans such as vertebrates or mammals are meant in colloquial use.[citation needed] The biological definition of the word refers to all members of the Kingdom Animalia including humans.[2]

Characteristics

Animals have several characteristics that set them apart from other living things. Animals are eukaryotic and are multicellular[3] (although see Myxozoa), which separates them from bacteria and most protists. They are heterotrophic,[4] generally digesting food in an internal chamber, which separates them from plants and algae (some sponges are capable of photosynthesis and nitrogen fixation though).[5] They are also distinguished from plants, algae, and fungi by lacking rigid cell walls.[6] All animals are motile,[7] if only at certain life stages. In most animals, embryos pass through a blastula stage, which is a characteristic exclusive to animals.

Structure

With a few exceptions, most notably the sponges (Phylum Porifera) and Placozoa, animals have bodies differentiated into separate tissues. These include muscles, which are able to contract and control locomotion, and nerve tissue, which sends and processes signals. There is also typically an internal digestive chamber, with one or two openings. Animals with this sort of organization are called metazoans, or eumetazoans when the former is used for animals in general.

All animals have eukaryotic cells, surrounded by a characteristic extracellular matrix composed of collagen and elastic glycoproteins. This may be calcified to form structures like shells, bones, and spicules. During development it forms a relatively flexible framework upon which cells can move about and be reorganized, making complex structures possible. In contrast, other multicellular organisms like plants and fungi have cells held in place by cell walls, and so develop by progressive growth. Also, unique to animal cells are the following intercellular junctions: tight junctions, gap junctions, and desmosomes.

Reproduction and development

Nearly all animals undergo some form of sexual reproduction. They have a few specialized reproductive cells, which undergo meiosis to produce smaller motile spermatozoa or larger non-motile ova. These fuse to form zygotes, which develop into new individuals.

Many animals are also capable of asexual reproduction. This may take place through parthenogenesis, where fertile eggs are produced without mating, or in some cases through fragmentation.

A zygote initially develops into a hollow sphere, called a blastula, which undergoes rearrangement and differentiation. In sponges, blastula larvae swim to a new location and develop into a new sponge. In most other groups, the blastula undergoes more complicated rearrangement. It first invaginates to form a gastrula with a digestive chamber, and two separate germ layers - an external ectoderm and an internal endoderm. In most cases, a mesoderm also develops between them. These germ layers then differentiate to form tissues and organs.

Food and energy sourcing

All animals are heterotrophs, meaning that they feed directly or indirectly on other living things. They are often further subdivided into groups such as carnivores, herbivores, omnivores, and parasites.

Predation is a biological interaction where a predator (a heterotroph that is hunting) feeds on its prey (the organism that is attacked). Predators may or may not kill their prey prior to feeding on them, but the act of predation always results in the death of the prey. The other main category of consumption is detritivory, the consumption of dead organic matter. It can at times be difficult to separate the two feeding behaviours, for example where parasitic species prey on a host organism and then lay their eggs on it for their offspring to feed on its decaying corpse. Selective pressures imposed on one another has led to an evolutionary arms race between prey and predator, resulting in various antipredator adaptations.

Most animals feed indirectly from the energy of sunlight. Plants use this energy to convert sunlight into simple sugars using a process known as photosynthesis. Starting with the molecules carbon dioxide (CO2) and water (H2O), photosynthesis converts the energy of sunlight into chemical energy stored in the bonds of glucose (C6H12O6) and releases oxygen (O2). These sugars are then used as the building blocks which allow the plant to grow. When animals eat these plants (or eat other animals which have eaten plants), the sugars produced by the plant are used by the animal. They are either used directly to help the animal grow, or broken down, releasing stored solar energy, and giving the animal the energy required for motion. This process is known as glycolysis.

Animals who live close to hydrothermal vents and cold seeps on the ocean floor are not dependent on the energy of sunlight. Instead chemosynthetic archaea and bacteria form the base of the food chain.

Origin and fossil record

Dunkleosteus was a gigantic, 10 meter (33 ft) long prehistoric fish.[8]
Vernanimalcula guizhouena is a fossil believed by some to represent the earliest known member of the Bilateria.

Animals are generally considered to have evolved from a flagellated eukaryote. Their closest known living relatives are the choanoflagellates, collared flagellates that have a morphology similar to the choanocytes of certain sponges. Molecular studies place animals in a supergroup called the opisthokonts, which also include the choanoflagellates, fungi and a few small parasitic protists. The name comes from the posterior location of the flagellum in motile cells, such as most animal spermatozoa, whereas other eukaryotes tend to have anterior flagella.

The first fossils that might represent animals appear towards the end of the Precambrian, around 610 million years ago, and are known as the Ediacaran or Vendian biota. These are difficult to relate to later fossils, however. Some may represent precursors of modern phyla, but they may be separate groups, and it is possible they are not really animals at all. Aside from them, most known animal phyla make a more or less simultaneous appearance during the Cambrian period, about 542 million years ago. It is still disputed whether this event, called the Cambrian explosion, represents a rapid divergence between different groups or a change in conditions that made fossilization possible. However some paleontologists and geologists would suggest that animals appeared much earlier than previously thought, possibly even as early as 1 billion years ago. Trace fossils such as tracks and burrows found in Tonian era indicate the presence of triploblastic worm like metazoans roughly as large (about 5 mm wide) and complex as earthworms.[9] In addition during the beginning of the Tonian period around 1 billion years ago (roughly the same time that the trace fossils previously discussed in this article date back to) there was a decrease in Stromatolite diversity which may indicate the appearance of grazing animals during this time as Stromatolites also increased in diversity shortly after the end-Ordovician and end-Permian rendered large amounts of grazing marine animals extinct and decreased shortly after their populations recovered. The discovery that tracks very similar to these early trace fossils are produced today by the giant single-celled protist Gromia sphaerica casts further doubt on their interpretation as evidence of early animal evolution.[10][11]

Groups of animals

Porifera, Radiata and basal Bilateria

The sponges (Porifera) were long thought to have diverged from other animals early. They lack the complex organization found in most other phyla. Their cells are differentiated, but in most cases not organized into distinct tissues. Sponges typically feed by drawing in water through pores. Archaeocyatha, which have fused skeletons, may represent sponges or a separate phylum. However, a phylogenomic study in 2008 of 150 genes in 21 genera[12] revealed that it is the Ctenophora or comb jellies which are the basal lineage of animals, at least among those 21 phyla. The authors speculate that sponges—or at least those lines of sponges they investigated—are not so primitive, but may instead be secondarily simplified.

Among the other phyla, the Ctenophora and the Cnidaria, which includes sea anemones, corals, and jellyfish, are radially symmetric and have digestive chambers with a single opening, which serves as both the mouth and the anus. Both have distinct tissues, but they are not organized into organs. There are only two main germ layers, the ectoderm and endoderm, with only scattered cells between them. As such, these animals are sometimes called diploblastic. The tiny placozoans are similar, but they do not have a permanent digestive chamber.

The remaining animals form a monophyletic group called the Bilateria. For the most part, they are bilaterally symmetric, and often have a specialized head with feeding and sensory organs. The body is triploblastic, i.e. all three germ layers are well-developed, and tissues form distinct organs. The digestive chamber has two openings, a mouth and an anus, and there is also an internal body cavity called a coelom or pseudocoelom. There are exceptions to each of these characteristics, however - for instance adult echinoderms are radially symmetric, and certain parasitic worms have extremely simplified body structures.

Genetic studies have considerably changed our understanding of the relationships within the Bilateria. Most appear to belong to two major lineages: the deuterostomes and the protostomes, the latter of which includes the Ecdysozoa, Platyzoa, and Lophotrochozoa. In addition, there are a few small groups of bilaterians with relatively similar structure that appear to have diverged before these major groups. These include the Acoelomorpha, Rhombozoa, and Orthonectida. The Myxozoa, single-celled parasites that were originally considered Protozoa, are now believed to have developed from the Medusozoa as well.

Deuterostomes

Superb Fairy-wren, Malurus cyaneus

Deuterostomes differ from the other Bilateria, called protostomes, in several ways. In both cases there is a complete digestive tract. However, in protostomes the initial opening (the archenteron) develops into the mouth, and an anus forms separately. In deuterostomes this is reversed. In most protostomes, cells simply fill in the interior of the gastrula to form the mesoderm, called schizocoelous development, but in deuterostomes it forms through invagination of the endoderm, called enterocoelic pouching. Deuterostomes also have a dorsal, rather than a ventral, nerve chord and their embryos undergo different cleavage.

All this suggests the deuterostomes and protostomes are separate, monophyletic lineages. The main phyla of deuterostomes are the Echinodermata and Chordata. The former are radially symmetric and exclusively marine, such as starfish, sea urchins, and sea cucumbers. The latter are dominated by the vertebrates, animals with backbones. These include fish, amphibians, reptiles, birds, and mammals.

In addition to these, the deuterostomes also include the Hemichordata or acorn worms. Although they are not especially prominent today, the important fossil graptolites may belong to this group.

The Chaetognatha or arrow worms may also be deuterostomes, but more recent studies suggest protostome affinities.

Ecdysozoa

Yellow-winged darter, Sympetrum flaveolum

The Ecdysozoa are protostomes, named after the common trait of growth by moulting or ecdysis. The largest animal phylum belongs here, the Arthropoda, including insects, spiders, crabs, and their kin. All these organisms have a body divided into repeating segments, typically with paired appendages. Two smaller phyla, the Onychophora and Tardigrada, are close relatives of the arthropods and share these traits.

The ecdysozoans also include the Nematoda or roundworms, perhaps the second largest animal phylum. Roundworms are typically microscopic, and occur in nearly every environment where there is water. A number are important parasites. Smaller phyla related to them are the Nematomorpha or horsehair worms, and the Kinorhyncha, Priapulida, and Loricifera. These groups have a reduced coelom, called a pseudocoelom.

The remaining two groups of protostomes are sometimes grouped together as the Spiralia, since in both embryos develop with spiral cleavage.

Platyzoa

Bedford's flatworm, Pseudobiceros bedfordi

The Platyzoa include the phylum Platyhelminthes, the flatworms. These were originally considered some of the most primitive Bilateria, but it now appears they developed from more complex ancestors.[13] A number of parasites are included in this group, such as the flukes and tapeworms. Flatworms are acoelomates, lacking a body cavity, as are their closest relatives, the microscopic Gastrotricha.[14]

The other platyzoan phyla are mostly microscopic and pseudocoelomate. The most prominent are the Rotifera or rotifers, which are common in aqueous environments. They also include the Acanthocephala or spiny-headed worms, the Gnathostomulida, Micrognathozoa, and possibly the Cycliophora.[15] These groups share the presence of complex jaws, from which they are called the Gnathifera.

Lophotrochozoa

Roman snail, Helix pomatia

The Lophotrochozoa include two of the most successful animal phyla, the Mollusca and Annelida.[16][17] The former, which is the second-largest animal phylum by number of described species, includes animals such as snails, clams, and squids, and the latter comprises the segmented worms, such as earthworms and leeches. These two groups have long been considered close relatives because of the common presence of trochophore larvae, but the annelids were considered closer to the arthropods,[18] because they are both segmented. Now this is generally considered convergent evolution, owing to many morphological and genetic differences between the two phyla.[19]

The Lophotrochozoa also include the Nemertea or ribbon worms, the Sipuncula, and several phyla that have a fan of cilia around the mouth, called a lophophore.[20] These were traditionally grouped together as the lophophorates.[21] but it now appears they are paraphyletic,[22] some closer to the Nemertea and some to the Mollusca and Annelida.[23][24] They include the Brachiopoda or lamp shells, which are prominent in the fossil record, the Entoprocta, the Phoronida, and possibly the Bryozoa or moss animals.[25]

Model organisms

Because of the great diversity found in animals, it is more economical for scientists to study a small number of chosen species so that connections can be drawn from their work and conclusions extrapolated about how animals function in general. Because they are easy to keep and breed, the fruit fly Drosophila melanogaster and the nematode Caenorhabditis elegans have long been the most intensively studied metazoan model organisms, and were among the first life-forms to be genetically sequenced. This was facilitated by the severely reduced state of their genomes, but the double-edged sword here is that with many genes, introns and linkages lost, these ecdysozoans can teach us little about the origins of animals in general. The extent of this type of evolution within the superphylum will be revealed by the crustacean, annelid, and molluscan genome projects currently in progress. Analysis of the starlet sea anemone genome has emphasised the importance of sponges, placozoans, and choanoflagellates, also being sequenced, in explaining the arrival of 1500 ancestral genes unique to the Eumetazoa.[26]

An analysis of the homoscleromorph sponge Oscarella carmela also suggests that the last common ancestor of sponges and the eumetazoan animals was more complex than previously assumed.[27]

Other model organisms belonging to the animal kingdom include the mouse (Mus musculus) and zebrafish (Danio rerio).

Carolus Linnaeus, known as the father of modern taxonomy

History of classification

Aristotle divided the living world between animals and plants, and this was followed by Carolus Linnaeus (Carl von Linné), in the first hierarchical classification. Since then biologists have begun emphasizing evolutionary relationships, and so these groups have been restricted somewhat. For instance, microscopic protozoa were originally considered animals because they move, but are now treated separately.

In Linnaeus's original scheme, the animals were one of three kingdoms, divided into the classes of Vermes, Insecta, Pisces, Amphibia, Aves, and Mammalia. Since then the last four have all been subsumed into a single phylum, the Chordata, whereas the various other forms have been separated out. The above lists represent our current understanding of the group, though there is some variation from source to source.

Mistakes Made By Internet Marketers

Writing and publishing articles can be a very effective means of marketing for most businesses. It builds credibility, creates branding, drives traffic, and increases link popularity to your website. Like any other marketing method however, there are effective and ineffective ways to do article marketing.

A key component to making article marketing effective, is making sure the resource box is used effectively. Article directory managers, see a number of mistakes made in resource boxes that have greatly reduced the marketing effectiveness of the article. The good news is that most of these mistakes are very easy to fix.

1. The Links in the Resource Box Are Broken

Many articles that have been submitted to article directories don't have links that work correctly. A huge opportunity for traffic is lost because the link in the resource box sends them to the wrong website. If the reader wants more information after reading the article, they will have no where to go, especially if the artcle is very well written and draws in the reader to want more information.

The most common problem with broken links, is that the linking code isn't formatted correctly. This creates a broken link that usually points to a page that doesn't exist. Many authors leave the 'http://' off of the beginning of the URL, causing the link point to a page like 'http:// theirarticledirectorysite.com/www.yourwebsite.com'.

To avoid this problem, it is crucial to add the 'http://' to the beginning of your link (make www.yourwebsite.com into http:// www.yourwebsite.com) so the link will send visitors to your website when they click on it, and not some non-existant page. If you use article submission software, or a service, carefully review the instructions on how to add links to your resource box so you can avoid creating broken links. If you need to add the links yourself, make sure you understand enough HTML so you can correctly create a link.

2. No Active Links in the Resource Box

Another common problem with articles submitted to directories is that there are no links at all in the resource box. In this case, the author just writes the link to their website without making it an active link. It is just a text listing of their link, such as 'http:// mywebsite.com' that isn't clickable.

The most common cause of this problem is that the author doesn't realize that many article submission software services do not work the same as email. In most email programs, a link that includes 'http:' will automatically make the link clickable in their email reader.

Most article submission software and services don't follow these same rules. In most cases, the links aren't automatically created, and the author has to create the link themselves. Read the article submission guidelines very carefully to determine what is required to add links to the resource box. If you have to do them yourself, then make sure you know enough HTML to create a clickable (active) link

3. Resource Box Not Related To Article

The resource box of the article serves many purposes. Some of the biggest reasons are to give credibility to the author and to guide the reader to where they can find more information about the subject material of the article they just read.

Quotes for Website Content, SEO Articles, Ezine Articles

A professional writing quote should be clear, concise, and informative. The goal is to tell the client exactly what you're going to do for them and how you're going to do it. The more detailed and professional the quote, the better chance you have of nailing the job.

Tip: for maximum effectiveness, make good use of bulleted lists, sub-headers, and a professional logo or header. Here is an example format you might use:

Below you will find specific guidelines a writer should follow when creating a quote for a client. These are guidelines that are unique to each project; others are sometimes interchangeable.

Website Content/Copy:

When preparing a writing quote for a website, bulleted lists are essential. In the quote, include a bulleted list of every page you're going to work on:

--List the names of the pages (home, about, contact, widget makers, how to make a widget, resources for widgets-you get the idea); --The exact number of pages; --If you'll make the content SEO friendly; --How many rounds of edits are included; --Deadlines; --Any other services you'll provide.

SEO Articles:

In quotes for SEO articles, it's essential to determine:

--Approximate word count; --The number of articles; --The keywords they're using; --If you'll be doing the research; --Who'll provide the topics; --What topics the client wants; --Whether you relinquish all republishing rights; --Deadlines; --If you'll be in charge of the article submissions.

When you've determined this information, include it in the quote with all the details. Let your client know if you charge additional fees for article submission and if you have different rates for specific word counts.

Ezine/ Magazine/Website Articles:

These articles, while they include many of the same elements of SEO articles, tend to be longer, more involved, and higher quality than SEO articles. When you're creating a quote an ezine or website article, determine:

--Approximate word count; --Topic (s); --Whether you'll retain republishing rights; --Whether it will be ghostwritten or you'll be credited; --What deadlines you'll have to meet.

Keep in mind that you'll rarely be commissioned to write a magazine article unless you're a known author or an expert in another field. Usually you'll write a query letter, but that's a whole other article.

Time non-profit agencies

More than one computer owner has found a way to make money with his or her computer. Back before the creation of the internet, some computer owners were approached about creating printed newsletters.

At that time non-profit agencies were becoming more commonplace, and the public was more aware of the causes touted to such agencies. Many of those agencies wanted to put out newsletters. If you then had a computer, you could make money with your computer.

You can still make money with your computer, but the opportunities have now expanded beyond newsletters. In fact, a lot of companies now send their newsletters by e-mail.

Still, that does not diminish the ways that one can make money with a computer. If you know an aspiring poet or writer, then you might of already found an added way to make money with your computer.

A poet or a writer should have proof that something they wrote has been published. A poet or a writer might be willing to pay you to print up some of what they have written.

If you are good at using all of the tools on the computer, then you might help the aspiring poet or writer to create a small book. They would of course pay you for your services. You could enjoy knowing that you had helped a friend or business associate, while also finding a new way to make money with your computer.

Another way to make money with your computer involves making contact with those who need programs printed. A program can be printed on a computer. Try to keep in touch with city officials or school officials, who might be planning a special event. They might hire you to type up a program for their event.

Maybe you want to use your computer in the same way that a piano teacher uses his piano. You could teach others how to use the computer. If you do not want to do that in your home, then visit some of the local computer stores. Maybe they would be eager to have you as a teacher at some evening class.

You could prepare your lesson at home on your own computer. Then you would teach the lesson using the store's computers.

You and the store would split the fee charged for your class. The store would do all of the advertising. You could enjoy knowing that you had found a new way to make money with your computer.

Maybe during that class you will discover an emerging writer. If so, then you might want to suggest the production of a small book by that emerging writer. You would have tapped into yet another source of money, another source that comes from the use of your computer

Many Types of Printing Services:- Recognize Its Various Importance

With the hype of business spreading in all parts of the world, printing services have taken the world by sweeps. If you want to begin a business, you have to print your brochure, if you want to publish a book you have to print it in a press, and if you want to do some major printing you have to take the assistance of digital printing to make it a success.

Types of printing services

In today's world, printing services are becoming very popular modes of communications. You can enjoy a variety of printing services that are as follows: § Brochure printing - brochure printing is more popular for phone books, Internet factors, graphic designing and advertising journals. In the brochures, while some companies provide typesetting, color separations, color proofing, designing and proofreading services, the other companies provide basic color printing, folding and shipping. Since brochures are wonderful promotional tools for professionals, so brochure printing has become very important. § Digital printing - digital printing is a direct-to-paper printing process that often runs about one-half of the cost of press printing. Digital printing is a four-color printing process using variety of colors like cyan, magenta, yellow and black, which when mixed creates variety of other colors. § Press printing - through press printing films and plates are produced to add to the overall cost. Press printing involves Pantone Matching System [PMS] that offers great colors and pre-set specifications. Press printing is done on an entire set of rainbow-colored papers. It involves traditional printing methods like die cutting, embossing, and foil stamping.

Importance of professional color printing in today's world

If you want quick success in your business, you should opt for professional color printing procedures. If you are looking forward for professionally printed brochures for your business, then you should specify the type, size and texture of the brochure you need. You should also specify the number of brochures you need and sent a proof of your brochure once it has been printed. When you want to do professional printing, you should advise the printer what you want on your business cards, what designs you should apply for and the number of templates you should offer to your printing professional.

If you are in need of catalogues, then again printing services can help you. You have to select the weight of paper you desire, specify the color of ink, decide whether you want matte or glossy finish and what shipping methods you will prefer.

Other products that you can purchase from professional printing company includes customized stationary postcards, booklets, posters, artwork, greeting cards, calendars, presentation folders, statement stuffers, advertisements, CD covers, bookmarks, note cards, door hangers, rack cards, wedding invitations, flyers, envelopes, and many more items.

Quantum of information on a particular topic

An Article is a quantum of information on a particular topic mostly intended for free distribution to serve as source of knowledge. However with a slight addition & twist that quantum can also serve as highly targeted advertisement method to your site.

The method has been used with success in offline world. But internet has lately made the articles evolve into a specialty. Easy availability, easy searchability and sheer volume of information make articles unique.

If you are in internet business articles can help you by more than one method.

- They make you expert in eyes of reader. A trust based relation has already been formed by the time are furnishes reading an article.

- When put on your site on they make your site rich in unique content. Your site gets higher ranking in the search engineers and that in turn brings more customers. Any customer who might be looking for information will come to your site and if he is a potential buyer he is more likely to buy from you because you are giving him the required information without any attached string.

- If you sell umbrellas and you also have exhaustive information on your site about umbrellas, you are going to outperform the one who doesn't. It is so because by providing free information you are doing a service and will be put on higher pedestal. - Submitting articles to various directories with your resource box attached will serve as non stop advertisement that aims at specific audience.

- You can use your articles to post in your newsletter. This way your stay connected with your readers and thus perform better than if you do not.

- Articles can help you to carve a niche of your own in ghostwriting business. When writing an article one should take care of writing it well. One must make it interesting so that the reader is not bored. If the article is not well written your aim of writing article is defeated. A better written article studies unique and draws make readership.

To write a good article one has to take care of all the features highlighted in previous articles of this series. The knowledge of subject and command over language are very important aspects.

However because internet articles have become a specialty themselves, there are certain things one must remember while writing articles.

-- An article must provide information that is useful to a reader. It should provide the necessary information even if they he never visits your site.

-- Self-serving links must be in the resource box. Links in the text itself are blatant advertisement and are considered equivalent to spam.

-- The article should not be a sales pitch or advertisement in itself. If you have written a press release it should be submitted to the press release site and not article directory.

-- The article must be in simple, understandable and fluid language. A paragraph should not be more than 3-4 lines. A good article length is between 400-1200 words.

How Ezine Article Submission

Ezine article writing is a proven method of generating traffic to your site. No hype here, it works, and it works well. After reading your interesting article, the reader clicks on your link in the last paragraph to learn more. Every article I have read about Ezine article writing has been quite honest in stating that Ezine is a proven traffic generator, but that it requires work. That is does. If you are a newbie, this article has information that will get you off to the right start. If you are an experienced article writer, let us review the steps to see why the process requires so much work, and what we can do to lessen the time required.

The first step is to write an interesting article on a particular subject. The article should be over 500 words, as that is a requirement of most submittal sites. Be sure to read the Submittal Guidelines of each site before submitting your article.

Next comes the preparation of a list of sites to submit your article. The person who said "easier said than done" must have been an Ezine article writer! The accepted guideline is to submit your article to at least 100 sites, but the more the better. Using Internet sources I made a list of 100 sites, but as I checked them out the list was suddenly reduced to 25. Some sites were no longer in operation, some were simply not article submit sites, others were subject specific, not applicable to my subject, and other problems. Eventually, from a list of around 300, I finally compiled my initial list of 100 sites to submit my article. This was a time consuming task.

Next comes the submitting of your article to various article sites. This is pretty straightforward. Visiting a site for the first time will require becoming a member. This involves filling out a short information form, perhaps submitting a photo, and then activating your account from the authorization sent to your listed e-mail address. Subsequent logins to the site are much faster as one can go directly to Member Sign In and then to Submit Articles. Now it is time to submit your article. Select a Category then cut and paste each element of your article from your word processor to the data input form on the site. Cut and paste the Title, Summary, Body, Resource Box, Bio info, and Keywords into the form on the site. Sounds easy, it is easy, but again a tedious time consuming process.

Recognizing this as a very real problem, a number of innovative companies have come up with tools to lessen the time required to submit an article. No, I am not talking about Robot systems that are frowned upon. In fact, even if such systems were allowed would you really want the article that you worked so hard on, submitted without seeing that it was done properly?

This is where the article submitter program comes into play. These programs allow you to submit your articles to hundreds of article directories and can save you an incredible amount of time in doing so. You simply enter your article details into the software once, and then select the directory you would like to submit to. The software will then, automatically fill in all of the submission criteria for each directory and allow you to quickly submit your articles.

Try one of these programs, and take advantage of one of the easiest ways to submit articles and generate traffic to your website. Stop wasting time on list building and cutting and pasting.
