[EzineArticles] Diamond Level Membership: Initiate Quality

Diamond Level Membership: Initiate Quality EzineArticles.com Logo

Boost Your Credibility and Increase the Quality and Speed of Your Article Submissions

Diamond level membership is the highest point of the EzineArticles membership pyramid. It is reserved for the best of the best and has many benefits, including faster article reviews, quicker Member Support response times, and increased exposure.

With a consistent focus on quality and reader-benefited content, any member can achieve Diamond level membership through hard work, dedication, and initiative.

Take initiative by using these milestones as your quality check-points:

Milestone: Building Your Library with Quality Articles

Maintain your connection with your readers by building up your article library to ensure you are giving your readers a consistent flow of articles. The more quality information you provide in your articles on a consistent basis, the stronger your articles and your authority becomes.

Provide your own unique tips, strategies, techniques, case-studies, analysis, opinions, commendatory - the list goes on! The key here: "your own" tips (i.e. your own personal experience and expertise) should be the unique quality that ultimately benefits the reader.

Milestone: Optimizing Your Profile

Including information in your Account Profile will help you maximize your exposure, your reputation and your credibility. To complete your account profile, you should have:

  • Author Photo: Readers will see you as a REAL person, which in turn establishes your brand and credibility.
  • Author Bio: A brief summary about yourself and why you're an expert will help readers learn more about you.
  • Links: Provide readers with your website, personal/blog, as well as your social networking information to use your exposure on EzineArticles to help you build new or reinforce existing relationships with your audience.

Milestone: Proofreading to Maintain Your Credibility

Proofreading your articles and your author bio for grammar and spelling errors is crucial when maintaining readability, credibility, and a connection with your audience. Try reading your articles out loud to catch awkward sentences or have a friend or family member read your articles for comprehension.

Milestone: Getting Exclusive With Your Readers

Provide readers with content that is 100% yours, fresh, transparent, and delivers continuous quality throughout. This exclusivity will pump up your article writing efforts:

  • Improve Value: Your articles are an extension of you and everything connected to you. Be confident the articles are worthy of the connection by focusing on the information you provide readers and how you present it.
  • Stand Out: Readers look for content they can relate to that doesn't sound like it just came off the article conveyor belt. Make sure each article stands out with fresh content.
  • Add Specifics: Generalities are the ultimate expertise-killer. Provide specific details with a fresh perspective: yours!
  • Be Transparent: If your focus is on reader-driven, quality content, there is no reason to disguise what you do. Be open about who you are and what you are providing.

Milestone: Optimizing Your Links

Choose your links wisely by considering if your link is relevant to your article content, is transparent or intention is clear, and the site has easy navigation. Optimize your landing page with the reader in mind to ensure they will want to come back and visit your site again! Tip: This includes both your links in your articles AND links in your account profile.

If you having difficulties overcoming any of these milestones, rest assured: we know mistakes are made during the learning process. What we look for is if you are learning from those mistakes and are actively attempting to improve upon the quality of your articles.

We want every author to take the initiative to strive for Diamond membership by providing outstanding quality and becoming the leaders of their niche. Ask questions if you don't understand a particular issue with your article.

With these milestones in mind, build confidence in your article writing efforts to increase your credibility and quality-driven readers! To learn more about the Diamond membership level and its incredible benefits, visit The Value of Diamond Membership.

EzineArticles Member Endorsement
Phillip Davis "EzineArticles helped shift the entire paradigm by putting the power back into the hands of the writers and authors."

As a naming and branding consultant, nothing holds more value than potential clients seeing your work published in written form. That once required writing queries to editors in hopes of being "picked" to write an article. EzineArticles helped shift the entire paradigm by putting the power back into the hands of the writers and authors. Now we have a direct pipeline to our potential customers and audience. We can share advice, offer help, syndicate our work and generate valuable leads. It's effectively blown the bottleneck out of the old system. Thanks for devising a tool that allows for a freer flow of information. That's powerful stuff!
