Another problem is that when you write an article based on one person's article, you are open to plagiarism complaints. The new plagiarism laws are very strict about "One of the biggest mistakes that new writers make when trying to pen articles for the Internet is in the area of research. Not only will this mistake end up with you composing an article that isn't very good, but it will also lead to a ton of legal problems because of plagiarism issues. In this article, I'm going to discuss the proper way to do research for writing an article. Hopefully, after reading this, you'll know what to do and what not to do so that you don't end up with an article that is factually flawed or worse, outright plagiarized.

Let me start out by saying that everybody has to do research for writing an article, regardless of the subject or how knowledgeable you are on it, unless you are a virtual walking encyclopedia. Even I have to research a number of topics in areas that I am very familiar with because of changes in laws or social norms or even just how effective something may be. We do not live in a static world.

The way most article writers who are first starting out do research is to find an article online about the topic they want to write about, read it and summarize it in their own words. This is totally wrong and will lead to many problems.

For starters, you are basing your article on one person's opinions. How do you know they are correct? How do you know this person even knows what they are writing about.

So by researching using only one source, you are opening yourself up to a ton of trouble.

So, what is the proper way to do research for an article? How many resources should you seek out? Well, there is no limit to the number of resources you should use when researching a topic, but you should use a minimum of three. Read each one, make some notes if you have to, and then when you write your final article, write your findings, in your own words, based on what you "learned" from the three articles you researched. This will do two things. The first thing it will do is confirm if the facts you've learned from the three articles are fairly correct, as you can never be 100% sure. But if all three articles agree on certain points, then you can be fairly sure that those points are not in error. The other thing this method of research will do is make it highly unlikely that you will end up plagiarizing the work since it will be coming from three different sources. Naturally, the more sources you use, the less your chance of plagiarizing.
