Question:

Where can I find resources as an inspirational writer?

Create Your Own Free Writers Website!

One way to showcase your inspirational articles and/or poetry is by creating a free website.

There are many places on the Internet where you can obtain and create your own writer's website with little experience.

My favorite resource is at angelfire.com. There free sites are easy to design using their basic resources. I found that I could link my articles at themestream and other online writing sites.

Then I promoted my site at several search engines and writers group to receive more reads, build up my readership and receive feedback from other authors.

You can even add graphics or links to any affiliate programs you belong to and earn a few extra dollars.

If you have an inspirational website you can also trade links with other similar sites and place ads in inspirational ezines.

Inspiration-Tips is eager to link to inspirational sites and articles, so if you have a website that compliments any of the categories on this site please send me an email and I'll be happy to review your site and add it to Inspiration-Tips!

For an example of a completed website at Angelfire visit my poetry corner, "Inspired By His Love" at http://www.angelfire.com/journal/articles/index.html.

Promote!

Once you have established yourself as an inspirational writer, either by showcasing your articles at online resources and/or by creating your own website, you will want to gain readership to share your works.

There are numerous resources for doing so on the Internet. Many of the links in this category will lead you to different sources of promoting yourself.

Search engines offer free listings for people searching for information on a specific topic. You can submit your link for free at many of these sites.

Joining writing groups to post links to your articles for other writers to view and give feedback is another great source for promoting your works. Yahoo offers mega groups in many categories and you will find many links in the ,purple recommended by me,"Link" icon on the Inspiration-tips homepage.

Subscribing to various ezines in the inspirational category will also be a great asset. Most ezines will allow subscribers to place a free ad promoting their website or post links to inspirational articles.

Link exchanges and banner ads can also assist you in promoting readership.

Inspiration-Tips and other like sites may invite you to submit your URL to be reviewed and added to their database. I am continually seeking links to compliment the categories at Inspiration-tips and welcome all inspirational writers to send me an email with your site or article URL, name of author and title of site or URL.
