Writing articles fast has to be hands down the #1 topic for article marketers today. Most folks want to know how to write articles in minutes. If you put some time into it and train every day you could at some point create between 10 and 20 articles per day. Now your typing speed will be a factor and let me start by saying that my typing speed was horrible but over time got faster and faster. Shall we say that your current speed is 18 words per minute. You are not a skilled typist but you know where the letters are on the keyboard. Now if you practice your articles day after day, than I guarantee in a short period of time you will notice a significant difference in your article output. And you know the more articles you insert online the more visitors you will generate to your web site. Once you first begin writing you might have to spend many hours on your articles but over time you will be able to finish them faster. But my best advice to when it comes to writing quick articles is to write about topics your very familiar with. If you feel you don't know enough about your niche then read up on some topics by reading other people's websites, reading monthly trade magazines and attending your niche's forums. This is an drill you must complete on a regular basis. However your efforts will pay off handsomely in time. This is the quickest way for you to become a expert in a particular niche and writing fast articles.
