A website that could be useful for newbies

Hello everyone,

I happened to stumble upon the following website:

http://ezinearticles.com/

It's a site that says, "493,672 Expert Authors Sharing Their Best Articles

Submit your high-quality, original articles for more exposure, credibility and traffic back to your website – start your free membership.”

I'm not saying this would necessarily be a good thing for WA members to do with their articles; I don't know enough about that yet. But I think it would be good for newbies who are looking for a niche, because it lists many categories of articles. When you click on a category, you see sub-categories. For example, under the "Food and Drink" category, there are 19 sub-categories. Most of the sub-categories are too broad for niches (Example: category: Pets; sub-category: Reptiles and Amphibians). But some of the articles could give people ideas for more targeted niches.

When you click on a sub-category you see titles of articles (many pages of them) and the first few sentences; you can click one to read the whole article. The articles must vary in quality, and they may or may not be keyword-rich. However, if you're new like me and have never written this kind of content, the articles can give you ideas, not for specific topics, but general inspiration. They also show that articles don't have to be examples of great writing, which is good for people who struggle with perfectionism.

I haven't written much content yet because I'm having cataract surgery next month, and there's a lot of preparation. My eyes should be all cleared up before the end of the month, and I hope to get a new lease on life.

Happy reading and writing, Amanda
