If you have deep pockets, you can start buying ads in newsletters and ezines and hope somebody reads them. If you have even deeper pockets, you can have press releases sent out in major markets all over the country, even around the world. (Actually, those are not deep pockets – they’re more like mine shafts!) OR...

You can write articles for other people to publish in their ezines and newsletters. Who, me? Write? Right. It isn’t that difficult, assuming you have an average command of the English language. Or, more correctly, the American language, which is quite similar yet substantially different from English. George Bernard Shaw said, "England and America are two countries divided by a common language." But, enough of that.

The Internet is awash in "gurus", the vast majority of them self-appointed. I make no such claim. I am a practical writer and editor who believes the primary goal of this kind of writing is clear, concise communication. On that basis, I offer some advice and tips:

1. Write about what you know. If you’re Joe or Jane, an office worker whose hobby is gardening, don’t write about search engine optimization. Your goal is to publicize your new gardening website or ezine (or both). Write about gardening, and let someone else handle the SEO.

2. Write a "conversation". By that, I mean write as though you were speaking to another person, one-to-one. You’re not writing for some literary journal, but for folks pretty much like yourself. "Talk" to a friend, and avoid expressions like "some of you", which is impersonal and puts distance between you and your reader. Bad idea. Instead say "some people", or something similar. Keep it conversational.

3. Facts count. If you’re not sure about something, find out before including it in your article. Otherwise, you’ll become known as unreliable, which can be fatal in business.

4. Grammar counts. Let me guess: you hated English class and just barely passed. Well, if achieving your goals is important to you, make the effort. Here’s a free site
   Converting Your HELOC to a Fixed Rate Loan
   With widespread concern that rates were starting to increase significantly from their 30-year low in 2003, many homeowners quickly started looking into converting their low-rate adjustable HELOCs into more stable fixed rate loans to protect them from future rate increases. Although the Federal Reserve seems to be slowing down their round of rate hikes, the financial security of a fixed rate loan is a very attractive alternative to a loan that may have unpredictable payments in the future.The very first step you should take in looking towards a fixed rate loan is to simply as
