1. Not everyone writes well enough to convince readers to act. You should have someone evaluate your articles and give you honest feedback on their reaction. If the feedback is negative and you feel you can't write better, hire someone to write the articles for you.

2. Spend time, even if it takes more than you would like, to test your author's resource box. Write a few different versions and see which seems to draw in more customers. Allow enough trials to make sure it is your resource box content that is working and not just the article itself.

3. If people aren't visiting your website like you want, something isn't working within your articles. Try changing your resource box. Compare other articles that do seem to work with yours. Can you change something to make it work better?

4. Many article repositories ban software submitters. Personally submit to the best sites and hire a submission company if you can afford it. Don't use the software intended for this unless you feel it is completely necessary.

5. Schedule time to write and submit articles into your work schedule. If you want a lot of links in a short period of time, try submitting an article every day for an entire month. After that month, it doesn't matter whether you submit one on a weekly, bi-weekly or monthly schedule. What is important is that you do write and submit on a regular basis.

6. Spelling and grammar are more important than you may realize. Never submit an article until you have checked it at least twice for spelling errors and grammatically incorrect sentences. Don't allow these two things to be your downfall.
