Today’s writing tip is about increasing your pay. Writing can be a lonely pursuit, filled with rejection notices, unpublished works, and lost ideas. We all have 24 hours in a day. How we use it can spell the difference between success and just getting along.

Take article writing, for example. A check of the freelance job boards will tell you there are lots of opportunities. Pay, unfortunately, varies widely from the insulting to the mediocre to the livable wage. A swift in your approach to article writing can help you maximize your income potential.

Even sites offering lower prices per article or share revenue pricing structures have potential for serious income. The key is output.

With many of the big article sites like Ezine Articles and Article Marketers, you choose your topics. Undoubtedly, you’re choosing topics of which you are well acquainted. To get the most out of your writing, you must be efficient. Efficient means having references and resources ready at hand to cut down on research time. Of course, statistics are one area for which you will always do research to keep up to date.

This is how I maximize my writing. First, I keep a folder with sub-folders of often-used references. Having them categorized makes them easy to locate. The same goes for my articles. I’ve set up a directory system to keep my articles in order, making sure and not references and resources. In this way, I can easily copy and paste citations, cutting down on keystrokes.

Making the most out of your article writing means maximizing your efficiency. By keeping reference files and citations handy, you can cut back on research time and spend your valuable time on writing.
