I love Spamalot. It's one of the most refreshing plays I've had the pleasure of listening to in a long time. Remember the classic line, "No more bloody singing?" Of course you do. But what you're probably wondering is what it has to do with writing articles. Well, keep reading and I promise you that it will all become quite clear. But first, we have to understand the context of that line.
For those who didn't see the play or didn't get it, the line is essentially the man being fed up with all the singing that's been going on, thus resulting in his demand that it stop. It's not so much the singing itself that he objects to. It's that it was all so nonsensical. There was no point to any of it and after a while, he just couldn't take it anymore. Okay, so what has this got to do with article writing?
Some article writers have a tendency to ramble on, and not just for one article, but for every article that they write. They write in a style where there is more style than substance. Maybe they crack way too many jokes when they write. Maybe the give too many opinions and not enough facts. Whatever it is, after a while, the readers of these articles reach a point where they've had enough of your bloody writing and tune you out.
How can you tell? well, if you submit your articles to article directories, you will begin to see a gradual decline in the number of views you get. This is an indicator that some of your loyal fans aren't so loyal anymore. They're just plain sick of your style. I have personally never asked for feedback on my writing because quite honestly, I couldn't care less. I enjoy writing and write what I like. If a few people get enjoyment out of what I write, all the better.
However, if your livelihood depends on people reading your articles and acting on them, then it is in your best interest to knock off the bloody singing and give your readers what they're looking for...a solution to their problem. Otherwise, you might find out that you're singing to an empty room.
To YOUR Success,
