Update, outlook and again about article marketing

What have we done so far?
If you needed the money fast, you started with eBay. It would be interesting if you could give us some feedback about your experience. Here is mine: I met a manufacturer for solar products and agreed that I will sell his product in eBay and he will ship them directly from the plant. I am still waiting for his promised informations and pictured and the like. :-(
I created a free website (http://Fortune-Telling.weebly.com ) - I hope you did the same!
I set up a twitter account and send out 1 tweed almost daily -  the card of the day! If you want to follow: @for2ntelling
In the last blog entrance we started about Article Marketing, which we will continue today!
Article Marketing is a slightly misleading term! It is not about marketing your articles (this is important too) but marketing USING articles!
I started to mention it in my last blog: before you sign in or before you use a site, please read the Term of use!
There are two reasons for it:

1. You are a businessmen/woman and should be aware about the conditions
2. If you want to find new and creative ways to use a site or a service, you need to know the set up!

I have the tendency not to read manuals, because I think it should be obvious to use a thing or a service. I am using the internet almost since the start in 1990. Every now and then I tried to make money online, but it never seemed to work. Then a few month ago, I came across a video of George Brown where he showed me the use of Google in a way I had never seen - one of the reasons was that I never read the manual!
I also know, that all the tricks and systems you can buy were developed by smart guys (who read the manual) and they tested it and made a lot of money. Then they sold it  and made even more money, but  now every body is using the "tricks" and no one makes the big cash with the old tricks anymore.
So you need to find or develop new "tricks" yourself - if you want to make big bucks! But this you only can if you read the manuals and sad to say, learn the old tricks too!

OK, article writing. Before I mentioned that the title is to catch the readers attention and the SEO importance put your keyword(s) in the title!
If this happened to catch your attention  you will read the first paragraph. So this is the most important! It if is boring there always is a "back button"! In Turbocashplan, the undisclosed author states that the search engines focus on the first paragraph, which means you need to repeat the keyword(s). And be informative enough to make your readers continue!
Keyword density:  Most people agree that the keyword density should be less than 1 - 3%. This means in a 400 word article your keyword should not be used more than 4 - 12 times! To calculate the keyword density is simple: number of words /100 =  1 %.
Stick to it, because the search engine might punish you, if you use it to often! And if you sell the article, the buyer checks it as well. If your keyword is n every sentence, your readers may not like it!
 How long should an article be? 300 to max 600 words!
Plagiarism! Do not copy and paste (from others). I think all article hosters check your article with copyscape! I suggest you check your own articles (even if you wrote them yourself) before you deliver it!

That much for today!
