These are good tips. The only thing I would add is to not sacrifice quality for quantity. Oftentimes a potential reader will run across your article on another site and it will be their first impression of you. You want it to be a good one. So take the time to edit and make sure the article is at least readable. I use reprint articles on a couple of my websites and it’s amazing how many I have to sift through in order to find a good one.

Hi
Thanks for the article, I have neglected article marketing because of the time taken to write decent material. Perhaps now with your tips I can do so.

I tend to take longer than that when writing a blog post, depending on the topic and distractions. The social map is quite helpful as I am new to this process and it seems like incorporating social sites with blogging is a very good way to draw readers. Great post, thanks for the ideas!

Very interesting, not to mention ironic article. When you get a chance, take a gander at the guest post I just posted to my blog this morning…linked above.

Could you write a follow up post about the best services to submit these articles?

Also, I’m a professional writer, so I thought I’d share a few additional tips about how to write fast:

1) Think about what you want to say before you ever start writing. I do this while walking the dog or driving my daughter to preschool–so it really takes no time as I have to do both of those tasks anyway. Sometimes I do it as I’m falling asleep at night–but I’m an insomniac. Do what works for you.

2. (most important) Don’t edit yourself. Your first draft has one goal: throw up on the screen. Think about how quickly you can write a comment to someone else’s post. You can write your blog that quickly, too. The only thing that’s slowing you down is your initial desire to be perfect.

3. After you are done tossing your guts, then and only then go back and make it pretty. Since you just threw up on the screen, some of what you wrote is crap and should be deleted.

4. Read it once or twice out loud. This will help you catch terrible errors and really awkward sentences. It might also give you a few light bulb ideas of zinger sentences to add that will make your readers stop and say, “Brilliant!”

5. Don’t spend hours worrying about grammar. It will be lost on the vast majority of your readers who don’t know a colon from a semicolon. Once you’ve hit the big time, you can always hire a copy editor if grammar is really important to you.

There: just wrote this comment in about 3 minutes. If I was writing a blog about writing (I’m not), this could easily be a blog post.

Interesting idea. I spend 4 hours for each blog posts, so I guess I should consider your tips.

Thanks for sharing.

Thanks for the comment guys.

When you are writing an article, don’t be in a hurry to finish it in 12 minutes or don’t cut off some part of the content to finish it in less than 12 minutes. You cannot surely finish a good article in 12 minutes from the first time. It needs practice and you have to be a fast writer.

Make sure you use the same computer or laptop for writing articles. Most people cannot type fast if they change keyboards.

Next time when you are writing an article, write as fast as you can and don’t leave any part of the article. See how much time you took for writing it. If you are at 20 minutes, aim for 18 minutes when writing your next article. Once you achieve this, try for 15 minutes and then try for 12 minutes.

The main purpose of this post is to help you cut off your writing time and still deliver the point you were supposed to.

I don’t spend hours on an article but getting it done in 12 minutes would be my personal record! I’ll give these tips a try and see how it works out.

One’s speed of typing will greatly affect his/her course of writing. In this situation, a slow typer may not be able to wrap up the article in 12 minutes. Also, if the writer doesn’t have enough information in his/her mind, long pauses during the writing act can take a toll on the time to finish the article.
