Not a good content writer for blogs

Chris asked, “I’m not a writer how can i get good content for a blog?”

I don’t believe I’m a good writer and have struggled with this from day one online myself.

So, I only write content for a few sites I really like and out source the rest.

Let’s have a chat, a brainstorming session together and come up with some ideas to get content. If you have an idea even if you think it’s not a good one, just leave it as a comment.

Here are a few ideas off the top of my head.

1. Go to your local university and run an ad in their newspaper looking for writers.

2. Use online resources to find writers.Just search article writers in Google. I do not pay more than 10 dollars an article and like to pay less.

3. Buy PLR articles and create an audio blog by reading the PLR articles into your blog.

4. Post youtube.com videos on your blog and just write your thoughts on the video.

5. ASK! If you ask your readers what they want, it’s real easy to write

6. Trade services. I am very good at some tasks and found a writer that is not good at the same tasks. So from time to time I do work for my writer friend and she does writing for me. It’s a real good deal! I get out of what I hate to do and so does she!

OK folks, leave your ideas as comments below so all of us can benifit.

Thanks,

Craig

Images uploading Error today

I wanted to add images to this blog so while writing a post I clicked on the add an image button.

When you click on the above button a popup will open that looks like the following image.

If you click on the button the red arrow is pointing to, you’ll be able to upload an image from your computer. I did that and got an error! Bummer!

I Googled it and got the fix right away. Here is the fix.  http://lud.icro.us/wordpress-plugin-image-upload-http-error-fix/

Upload the suggested plugin and now I can use the image uploader built into wordpress.

Need to know how to upload plugins?
