How are original articles produced?

By now, you understand the importance of originality in article writing. As a student, you have probably been told about the consequences of plagiarism and how it is wrong to copy from others without giving credit to the original author. But writing an original article is different when you must refrain from using material that is already present in another article. This is so that your views can seem authentic and so that you can establish credibility as an author. But how can original points of view and information be developed?

#1: Look for inspirations, both from your personal life and from your professional life

Often the best points of view are those that are inspired by your own life experiences, whether personal or professional. To give a good example, I wrote an article about how heart and soul are important in the success of a business. My inspiration for that article came from helping my sister put together sweet lei’s for my nephew’s birthday party. As she assembled the flower necklaces, I felt a fullness within my soul. That became my inspiration to write about why success is about more than just sales and production.

Inspirations come from many places. You may be looking at a current article and want to expand on a certain point that someone made earlier. Something may happen to you that gives you something to write about. Sometimes it may come to you in the middle of the night. The important thing is that you find that inspiration because it will help you produce original articles.

#2: Even if you use a point of view already taken, your explanation can be original

Many times, it is not the points of view, but the explanation itself that can intrigue the reader. For example, if you’re writing about different aspects of search engine optimization and you’re writing about not buying backlinks, you could do more than offer a simple explanation of why this practice doesn’t work. You could tell a story about someone you know who was caught doing this or take some time and talk about what happened to those who were caught. Even if it is well accepted among the SEO community that buying backlinks is a bad practice, readers would be intrigued to hear your story, as it is your personal story about someone who did this practice and/or got caught for it.
