Great News You Don't Have To Be The Best Writer To Succeed Online.
I see so many folks producing great content, so much so that one sort of holds back on pushing that publish, button.
" Oh great, that is kind of helpful."
I mean to say, it may not be good enough, you may not be singing in tune, may be you are speaking a different language from the one that the folks that you are trying to target.
So what.
Call this a revelation.
Observation tells me that you don't have to be the best. Like a broken record I will wheel this one out every day just to remind myself, one of the skills we need to develop in the online industry is that skill of observation.
Not observation that leads to an assumption, rather an observation that leads to viewing things with clarity, seeing things for what they are.
You may be like me and follow some really successful affiliate marketers, they can make heaps of cash and live extraordinary lifestyles, it just amazes me, week in and week out how they roll.
One thing that they share in common is that they are not shy about pushing that publish button across all the platforms that they engage on. One of the other things that they all share in common.
"Their car may be out of gas, but in some miraculous way they will come up with a couple of gallons of gas to get you on your way and point you in the right direction."
Online marketing is the industry of giving.
Possibly, not the best writer, maybe useless at picking the right keywords, some can't even construct those eloquent sentences that wrap their audiences around their little pinky's. Some don't even communicate in their native language.
Sometimes goofing off every day and some days more than the national average.
They all share this one thing that elevates them into the stratosphere. Someone may have told or shown them or just maybe they stuck at it long after their peers had given up, long after their friends, family and loved ones had stopped asking how it was going.
Standing there with all their notes in a little black laptop bag, that one thing is;
They are consistent.
They are consistent in everything they do to create and craft their online presence.
The simple thing that most folks miss is that anyone can do this.
If you, can talk you can write and create content and if you bring your self along on the journey it will hit the target you are aiming for every time.
Folks are crying out for that unique view in an deluge of sameness, just remember that one and as we all know you are the only version of you, your voice like the message that you bring is unique.
Awesome simple formula.

Hi, Wayne, you are most welcome, glad you enjoyed the post, how is your content creation going?
It’s not been happening Alex. A focused weekend for me and New start Monday. I’m still stuck at a Brand for promoting Super Affiliate!
Thanks
Wayne
Hi Wayne, looks like you have a touch of all your eggs in one basket syndrome, it is where we have an idea, think it is a good one and then start second-guessing yourself, if that makes sense.
There are multiple ways to promote WA, the well-trodden path is the review style of promoting a site, which works well and then there is the related niche path, where you may promote lifestyle choices or something similar. when we break it down folks are looking for alternatives, different ways of generating income that may help to enhance their lifestyles.
Wealthy Affiliate is about providing the knowledge and resources to help folks establish an online business do it right and the will be a monetary reward for your efforts. it is not a get rich quick scheme.
If you are looking for that brand play around with domain names it doesn't cost anything to browse and try things out.

One of the things that I do at the moment is to look at my situation, demographic, age, region, work, and environment, goals, and aspirations for that demographic and bridge it across to that demographic and build a niche around that.
The reason that I do that is that I know the most about what is happening age wise that is. every age has different stages and phases, so say someone in their forties has different priorities to someone in their fifties to someone getting close to retirement.
If we relate then it is easy to find material that answers the questions that our target audience is looking for if that makes sense.
Best wishes for your search, don't get too panicked, the program runs for a year a little time spent in the beginning will pay huge dividends down the road, with brands and domain names they have to become one of our best friends, if we are not comfortable that is not going to happen and you will be fighting it every step of the way, it is kind of like bumping into something you know already, when you find it you will know
Hope this helps.
How kind are you, thank you so much Alex, a true professional response!!
I will respond properly on my progress. I resonated with the last paragraph, I am a firm believer of things being right. It will come. I’m not panicked just slightly frustrated perhaps.
The fact that your response is so helpful has made my day!
Thank you, catch up soon!
Wayne
There are probably a few folks going through the same struggle, as you, the answer will come post about it, you may be surprised to find out how many, a lot of the time we think that we are the only ones with an uphill struggle.
Thank you Alex for this post, it has inspired me as well as a reminder to express myself in my own unique way without fear of expression...
Hi Renistien, it can take time to find our voices, sometimes it is better to get our content out there, we all have our own unique way of expressing ourselves. It is good to remember that, I like how you have said it, expression without fear. Thank you for sharing much appreciated.
I think you are right in your observations, as a writer on of the things "the masters" teach is to get your thought in writing and print them even if they are not perfect. You can always make revisions.
Hi Leslie, exactly, we have a wonderful opportunity to get our message out there. The internet has made it possible for many to self-publish, exciting times for sure.
I like your take on things, get it out there plenty of time to revise and make improvements. One of the big movements currently with content is how we manage and promote it, the days of letting content sit and gather dust may be on the way out, massaging adding and revising adding additions, is the way to keep it relevant and evolving.
Thank you for sharing your thoughts, much appreciated.

The thing is Google just checks your content according to Keywords..........not by

How well you have constructed your content.........
It is upto the reader to decide.........
Regarding Spellings and Grammar we could take help of the MS Word, WordPress, or Gramerly...........
There is also a great tool called (not sure, something like) Head Line Builder or creator.......... something along the lines.........
Just Search Lower QSR and Long tail keywords.............
(Till now I am able to Rank on Page 1 for the keywords or Phrases having 50 QSR)

Hi Vijay, thank you for sharing your insights, there are a lot of elements and the ranking algorithms of most platforms are growing in complexity and understanding they are becoming more aware of content purpose.
It is at the end of the day up to the audience to decide about the quality and usefulness of the content, they will be receptive to the information and calls to action or they will not.
Writing good content, which includes good sentence structure, and less on the typos, will help a great deal :)
Hi James, that is a really good point, quality content is the key that unlocks many doors, I guess that is a work in progress for many of us. Consistently creating content can be like on the job training, the more that we do it the greater the improvements.
Thank you for sharing your thoughts much appreciated.
Yes, that is indeed so. The more one writes, the better it will get. Thanks for your post, Alex.
Thanks for your beautiful post. I agree with you. Just be normal and write in a simple way. Confident is more important than competition.
one coin makes in billions, it takes many days, months and year.
I like how you have said that Sham, from small beginnings we can create scale our presence. One dollar can become many for sure.
Building confidence can be one of the best returns from our content creation, not overthinking but doing and outthinking can bring some really good results.
The best thing that we can do is just to turn up and be natural, I agree with that statement 100%.
Thank you for sharing your insights Sham, how are you handling the heat Sydney side?
I so enjoyed this post Alex.
The best writing is that which is effective, not 'perfect'.
Sometimes we just "overthink" our writing and worry too much about what others may think about it.
The fact is not everybody will like it but we only need to attract those that do anyway.

Hi, Mark glad that you enjoyed this post,
One of my reflections this week;
Try not to "overthink" it, just do it and "out-think" it.
So true all we need is to create an effective message and deliver it to the folks that are receptive to it.
Part of the fun and challenge of the of the journey is working that out and crafting accordingly.
Thanks for sharing your insights, Mark.
Hi Christian, glad that you found some value in the post. Hope your WA experience is going well.

Yup. CONSISTENCY. Something I have been lacking and need to build in to my daily plan.
Thanx Alex.
Hi, Pual it is the thing that is going to help us to create our online presence and it seems that it is a tried and tested formula that has stood the test of time.
Creating that routine that allows us to be consistent can be an ongoing work in progress. creating results can be a huge motivating factor in that journey.
All the best Paul as you work towards your goal.
