Running and developing an internet business requires fresh content for your site on a regular basis. Daily if possible. Fresh content articles lures your prospects to your site by quenching their thirst for information and knowledge.

But, what are you to do if you don’t want to write or simply don’t know how?

To begin, if you don’t want to hire someone to do it for you, you can obtain free articles online. Public domain articles are available for anyone to use. And, you don’t need to worry about copyright issues with public domain articles.

The public domain consists of writings, articles, books, etc. with copyrights that have expired. Original copyrights only last for a specified number of years. When the copyright isn’t extended, due to the death of an author or simply abandonment of the work, the copyright expires and it becomes available in the public domain. These are works that were once published for profit and, as such, grammar and writing is usually of a very high standard. You should check copyright laws in your country for more information.

Because public domain articles are available to anyone, your competition may also be using them. This can be verified easily with a search engine. Make sure the articles you choose pertain to your website topic. You’ll likely need to edit them a bit in order to place your keywords in the right places.

One of the best ways to get fresh content is to allow other websites with a similar niche to submit articles that you post on your site. It’s a common blogging tactic to create “utility posts” which consist of an intro to a post in another blog with a link to it from your blog. Bloggers are simply using good fresh content from other blogs to fulfill their content needs.

Now, you might be saying — wait a minute, I don’t want links to other sites on my site! Well, if that’s what you think, you’re a little behind the curve because that’s exactly what Web 2.0 is all about! Google knows this and is now serving up pages based primarily on their social popularity. Google weighs other parts of the site as well, but always remember that social populariaty is VERRRRY important!

So, forget about keeping all the links to yourself and start sharing as much as you can.

And, if you’re wondering where all this is going, well here’s the pot of gold and the real reason why I decided to write this article in the first place. Because of Web 2.0, there are now many article services gaining popularity that cater to this need. The one I belong to not only sends my “unique” articles to about 600 sites upon submission, but I also receive many unique articles each day as a subscriber. And, you can choose to only receive articles if you don’t want to write them.

It’s not expensive and well worth the small monthly fee for the number of links I’m seeing in Google on a daily basis. It’s absolutely the greatest method Im aware of to help share links and obtain unique content regularly. It’s very easy to post to all of my blog sites now. I choose how many articles to receive each day as well as the categories, and, I choose whether or not to put them on my blog. After all, not everyone can write good content! Cruddy writing gets deleted.

Just one more thing I also want to point out as far as where to get good content for your articles. There are many sites online that offer what are called Private Label Articles that you can publish and take credit for yourself. You can even rewrite them if you like. In fact, that’s how this article came about. I have no problem writing, but by using a PLR article to start with, the ideas flow easier and I don’t have to come up with all original content.
