Work at Home Moms Articles - WAHM Articles

I love, love, love article marketing for its ability to help me get new subscribers, more traffic, and visibility with my audience.

But don’t think you’re done with your article once it’s been submitted and published somewhere. Here’s a list of 9 ways you can create another revenue stream with that article by turning it into a paid product.

(If you want some help writing articles and turning them into paid info products, be sure you enter the Saving Summer Giveaway tonight! Tomorrow’s draw is for a teleseminar course that will help you do just that.)

Here are my nine ideas for turning articles into info products… but there are many more too.

I swear, I was watching the whole time, and they still grew up in the blink of an eye.

I’ve been slowly adjusting to having teenagers in the house, and slowly rediscovering old plans and dreams I thought I had forgotten.

For example, I am finally writing my first print book - something I always dreamed of doing. I’m also rejuvenating a teaching career of sorts by teaching a homeschool writing class in the fall. All those plans that I packed away when I decided to put my kids first and my career second are still there, eager to grow now that the time is right.

There were so many times when they were small that I thought…

Am I really doing the right thing?

Am I right to put what I want on hold to give my kids what they need?

True, I did work part time, but never at a job I really loved. And I had my home businesses and websites, but never the time to develop them into what I wanted.

Now that I see them almost all grown up, I have to say yes, absolutely. I wouldn’t change a thing.

I know that not everyone can or wants to make the choices I made, but we all do what is best for us and our own families.

I have to admit, it’s really nice to not have to be needed for every little thing. I’m even getting over being asked “But can’t you stay out longer?” whenever I have to leave on an errand. (This from the boy who, not so long ago, couldn’t stand to be away from me for any amount of time!)

When I am needed now, it’s for something really BIG. Like a friend saying something cruel. Or having to go to summer school when everyone else gets the summer off. Somedays I kinda wish we could go back to when things were a little simpler…

But not really.

I’m feeling a little annoyed. Last week, I spent quite a bit of time writing a new article I was really excited about. Today I checked my stats and saw it’s already pulling some traffic and gaining some new subscribers for me. I thought… how cool is that!

Then I did a quick Google search to see if it had been reprinted anywhere. (If you want to do your own search like this, type the title or a few sentences from your article into Google. Be sure to put quotes like these ” around your search terms.)It hadbeen… and to my dismay, one publisher had liked the article so much they took it for their own. My name is nowhere to be found, and it looks like it’s their own stuff.

If this hasn’t happened to you yet, it will soon. And when it does, you can find a lot of information here about how to handle the situation.

There was a time when I would get up in arms about my content being stolen, and sometimes I still do. But in this particular instance, I’m going to let it go.

Here’s why:

1. The “blogger” (and I use that term loosely) hasn’t even identified himself on his blog. He cares so little for his reputation he doesn’t bother to tell others who he is. With some digging, I could probably find some way to contact him, but I doubt he’ll care.

2. Yes, I’m missing out on a backlink, but I’m pretty sure I can do without a backlink from that particular site.

3. I have bigger fish to fry. If I’m going to spend my time after anyone for stealing my content, I’ll save it for the big sites who leave out my link and my bio. Those are the ones I really need. And I’d rather use what time I do have to write my next article.

4. I can accept that some content theft is a cost of doing business. In my university days, I worked at the neighborhood 7-11. When we did the month-end numbers, there was always an expected loss. As long as the loss was within reason, we let it go.

And that’s what you’ll have to decide for yourself - which content stealers are worth going after, and which are better to just forget about.
