We don’t want to focus on problems with other content creator software too much, but it’s important to point out that there is a huge difference between Mass Article Creator and the kind of article spinning software that tries to spin an article from keywords.
That’s not how Mass Article Creator works. It doesn’t write articles for you. It re-writes your articles intelligently, and can even use your own words to do that.

Article Writing Mistakes – 7 To Avoid
—
Making your articles available for reprints by other ezine publishers and webmasters is the cornerstone strategy in building an avalanche of pre-qualified visitors to your website.
If you want your articles to be picked up and massively distributed by others, here are 7 common mistakes to avoid:
Article Mistake #1
Too many grammatical, spelling, and punctuation errors.
In addition to having your article proofed by others, you may also want to be sure that you have clearly defined paragraphs. Nothing is worse than a big blob of text with 20 run-on sentences.
Readers no longer read articles in depth and often only ‘scan’ your article. They want small bites of information that can be easily digested… also known as “info-snacking.”
Keep your “voice” in the same person throughout the entire article. If you are using the first person voice (I, me) or the second person (you, we, us) or the third person (they, them, he, she)…be consistent by staying in one voice for the entire article.
Article Mistake #2
Too much hype, bragging and self-promotion.
If you are as good as you know you are, there is no reason to fill the body of the article with hype, gratuitous links to your site or blatant self-promotion. Readers are smart and will see right through your “hype-veil.”
Better to only sell or pitch your company in the RESOURCE BOX below the body of the article. Research I’ve done indicates that the resource box often gets a 3% CTR (Click Through Rate). Be sure you take advantage of that by not selling hard in the body of the article.
Article Mistake #3
Content based on what you need to learn, not what your reader needs.
Put yourself in your reader’s shoes and ask yourself, “What does this article offer me?” Research what your reader wants to read by doing survey’s with your own audience or do keyword search engine research to find what people are looking for.
Article Mistake #4
Making your article broad or superficial in content.
It’s better to go in-depth on a narrow topic. Define it. Explain it. Relate to it. Use bullet points or numbered lists. Offer a secret or expertise that you have around the topic. Be original in covering your topic as narrowly as possible in a way that has not been done by others. Brevity is golden.
Article Mistake #5
Headline and article summary does not grab readers’ attention.
The headline is often ~95% of the initial reason why someone might read your article or pass it over for another article. Don’t bore your audience out of the gate with a dull headline or worse, a boring introduction to the article.
If you have to use two sentences to make your headline, you’re thinking too hard. Keep it simple and make it brief. Use keyword research tools to optimize your article title.
Article Mistake #6
Plagiarizing or ‘buying articles’…
It’s ok to research the Internet for article ideas, but it’s not ok to copy word-for-word of any article. Paraphrasing can also be classified as plagiarism. Be original. Let the words flow from your mind into your article. You will sleep better at night and your articles will have a higher value in the marketplace.
Buying articles is not a great idea…especially if you do not get an exclusive license to use them. What good is the same article if thousands of people call it their own? If you do outsource your article writing to ghost writers, make sure you have an exclusive right or license to the works.
Article Mistake #7
Don’t burn out the RESOURCE BOX by overloading it.
The RESOURCE BOX is your pay-off for giving your article up for free reprints, but don’t abuse the welcome mat by including a dozen website addresses. Stick with one website URL or two at the most and you’ll find your article may find a higher distribution rate.
If you want to be really tacky, include an affiliate link in the RESOURCE BOX. A better strategy is to have a domain name registered for every affiliate program that you pitch and include the domain name that rewrites or refreshes to your affiliate link. This is much less tacky and looks more professional.

How To Become a Self-Made Internet Millionaire

From the Desk of John Kumpunen: Going from Networking to Webworking:
How to become a self-made millionaire working from the comfort of your home
Not only is it possible, it being done every day by ordinary Joe Blows!
It used to be networking: “Who You Know”
Now it’s webworking: “Who Knows You”
Forget the passive prospects who don’t want to speak to you … forget cold calling, forget dealing with unresponsive people.
Instead of networking with a few, the internet gives an opportunity to webworking with millions and millions.
But only 1 in 50 business people will
ever understand this…
You must sell to customers who CAN buy and buy BIG. In the past, it meant getting into the Fortune 1000 companies, jumping through hoops, fighting gatekeepers with blackbelt in martial linguistics, and then waiting 90 days to get paid.
Work smarter… instead losing your cool with corporate mazes, why not use the H&R Block, Wal-Mart, Microsoft model combined with the internet, little bit here and a little bit there from a huge customer base.
Make the internet your MAJOR account:
You’re not dependent on ONE key customer who pulls the plug and forces you to fire good people on your team. With the internet, your business risk is spread over thousands if not millions of customers. Instead of networking with a few, you move up to “webworking” with thousands, maybe millions!
Just think of the staggering market size: There are over 1.5 billion internet users out there (2 billion in 2010). We humans don’t even comprehend large numbers like that:
Think of it this way: if it takes you 100 days to count to million, it will take you 323 years to count to billion. The internet is about very large numbers — even if you only cut a small fraction of the billions and billions of daily transactions (and the internet has barely started—it will be bigger and better than television, radio, newspapers, magazines combined). The Digital Gold Rush.
CASE HISTORY: One manufacturer sold to the local market of about 4 million people mainly through newspaper ads, trade shows, and referrals. Then we created a 24-hour Salesman and put them in top positions on Google, Yahoo and MSN. They now regularly sell more in a single day than they sold in a week before. One Monday, they call it the “Magic Monday”, they sold more than a month’s worth of product in a single day!
But internet marketing really isn’t “magic”, it’s mathematics: Instead of the local market of about 4 million people, they now sell to 300 million people. Their sales are growing bigger every day as more and more people discover their web site.The staggering size of the internet market can change your business in a few months. Not only is it possible, it’s being done every day.

How to look and feel younger with these 7 Important Lifestyle Changes

How to look and feel younger
with these 7 Important Lifestyle Changes"
Many scientists believe adequate sleep and good nutrition even combat the negative effects stress can have. There are so many factors that contribute to premature aging in our society. When you are worried and/or stressed, extra demands are placed on your body.
This increases your need for these 7 important lifestyle habits: good nutrition, enough quality sleep, anti-aging skin care tactics, supplementing with Omega-3 Fatty Acids, exercising regularly, drinking pure water, and reducing stress. I’ve sourced out some of the best solutions to get you looking and feeling younger now!
1. Good nutrition: Want to ward off wrinkles? Boost your memory? Or prevent illness? A good place to start fighting off the signs of aging is your diet.
Every aging-related issue — from memory loss, to brain functioning and wrinkling skin — stems from two basic processes in the body: Inflammation and oxidation. Eating foods that have anti-inflammatory properties and contain antioxidants will help protect you against both.
2. Sleep Better: Your body needs down time to repair cells and rest your heart. And your mind needs dreaming to stay sane. If you are catching only a few hours of sleep each night, you can hinder metabolism and hormone production in a way that is similar to the effects of aging.
Check your bedroom for electro-magnetic fields (EMFs). Alarm clocks, TVs, computers and other electrical devices emit these constantly. If these devices must be used, keep them as far away from the bed as possible, preferably at least 3 feet.
3. Anti-aging skin care: As you age, your skin undergoes a series of changes. Collagen and elastin, the substances that keep your skin smooth and young looking, break down potentially leading to droopy, flabby skin.
It wasn’t that long ago that the only way to try to lessen the effects of aging was through the use of moisturizers. However, new antiaging skin care products with proven effectiveness are now available. What used to be considered advertising hyperbole, is now true in more and more cases and products.
4. Omega 3s: Our bodies neither produce nor store Omega 3 internally; Omega 3 must be obtained from external sources. And the science on this one is loud and clear: omega-3 fats are essential for optimal health.
The best solution is to cut back on all vegetable oils (this includes those in processed foods) and get a regular supply of high-quality omega-3 fat. Omega 3 is often best obtained through supplements such as Auum’s Omega 3. Another bonus of Auum Omega-3 is it contains valuable vitamin D, another nutrient that many (almost all) North Americans are deficient in.

OMEGA-3
If you’re not eating enough “brain foods,” you may want to try nutritional supplements to help bridge the gap. Studies indicate that Omega 3 fatty acids found in the Harp Seal – the most bio-available, naturally toxic-free source, appear to be essential in building healthy neural pathways. or email: roseanne@reallifechanges.com |
5. Exercise Regularly: It has been said that one of the best antiaging tools at your disposal is to keep yourself at a normal, healthy weight. Exercise, combined with a balanced diet, is a simple way to do just that. Exercise is important to keep your muscles flexible and your skin and joints supple. Taking care of yourself physically, exercising, and learning a deep relaxation technique can actually make you appear and feel younger and more youthful.
Experts also advise older people to work in strength training, if only with light weights, to reduce any age-attributed bone or muscle loss. Exercising for at least 30 minutes everyday can also help you fall asleep. However, don’t exercise too close to bedtime or it may keep you awake. Studies show exercising in the morning is the best if you can do it.
6. Water: True health cannot occur without proper hydration of the body. We need to drink a minimum of half our body weight in ounces each day . For instance, if you weigh 200 lbs, you should consume 100 ounces of water.
There are filters that you can get that alter the molecular structure of water without any foreign or chemical substance being introduced into the water, transforming the molecular structure of the water to closely resemble the natural geomagnetic field found near healing water springs. This treated water delivers health benefits so convincing that space agency researchers are looking to use it on lunar settlements and space missions in the future.
7. Reduce Stress: In our high-stress society, the temptation often is to relieve stress through compulsive eating – so it’s not surprising we have an obesity epidemic today. Stress begins in the brain, with a surge of hormones causing intense alertness. In this hyped state, we cannot relax or sleep. But our minds cannot function at this extreme level for prolonged periods: Eventually the hormone surges and exhaustion cause tension headaches, irritability, aggression, inability to concentrate and memory loss. Unchecked stress can also trigger depression, which strikes twice as many women as men.
Now there is a New Meditation Technique that enables anybody to meditate like a Zen Master, without the years of training. This technique automatically makes your mind to relax and enter the deepest states of meditation instantly.
Self-hypnosis is another great way to reduce stress. This hypnotic process will create triggers in your subconscious mind to detect stress levels and take 3 steps to stop it. A session of meditation or hypnosis has been shown to boost immune responses up to 200% in under an hour. If you have anxiety, panic, headaches, or stress, you owe it to yourself to feel the relief you can have instantly. You can use the sessions at night to relax you and release the CAUSE of the stress (the inner conflict) and you can use the 5 minute relax to the max session to instantly put you in a state of bliss!
