A quick look around forums will reveal that most people don't like writing articles. I've a number of sites that I write articles to promote and I have trouble getting motivated. We're not robots. My stratergy is to set aside a time period, maybe an hour and half and I work on my articles. I force Myself to do it, no interuptions. This works for me but it does take some will-power. The thing is a well constructed article marketing campaign works, and will drive traffic to your site. But I understand exactly what you mean. Thank you for your comments and a happy new year.

It's impossible. With ebay fees now reaching levels that are making selling on ebay prohibitive it's getting harder for genuine businesses to compete. I think Ebay has shot itself in the foot with its price hikes and other rules. I use ebay to bring people to my website. I have made the decision to reduce my listings on ebay and just keep a core presence with the aim of bringing people to my website. as a selling venue ebay has certaainly made it difficult for sellers. They're working on the principle that they are the big player and there's no competition so they can do what they like. This is a false belief, as the amount of sellers leaving ebay proves.
