All these extra demands leave less time for content creation, so how should a site owner go about getting writers to help him/her?
I asked this question to several successful content website owners and have compiled a list of their suggestions. 1) First, Try Free Content You can announce on your website that you need contributors. Very often, your readers will be more than happy to write an article just to see their name published on the site and to get an inbound link to their own website. Make sure you provide guidelines to all contributors explaining what you will and won’t accept. They should ensure, for starters, that the content is: • Highly relevant to the target audience • Not blatant advertising or self-promotion • Not insulting, libellous or slanderous to other people, competitors, etc. • Of a similar quality to the content currently on the site You should also clearly state up front that you have the right to refuse or edit any article submitted for publication.
