Over the past 14 months I have written some articles and placed them online to redistribute knowledge to the masses. Some would say it is a waste to help the mindless masses with wisdom knowledge and know-how because they are so caught in their own ways and have been so brain washed that they do not get it.

Indeed this is a strong argument, yet it is the right thing to do, as one should not waste their worldly knowledge once they leave; no I am not leaving anytime soon I am only 40 years old. Nevertheless I do not write to promote any sort of commercial endeavor.

Although it does appear to me that had I known about online article writing while building my companies, I surely would have used that venue to promote my companys brand names you see? I was recently asked this question by a new up and coming Internet entrepreneur who asked;

Lance, have your businesses gained tremendous visibility through this outlet -- although many of the articles don't pertain to how you make a living (or so it seems)?

Actually I have not kept track in my retirement if indeed my online article writing has helped the visibility of my companies, but sense we are not selling anything I guess that would not matter either way. I would think it would, although it is personally irrelevant to me. I am an advocate I guess and would consider myself pro-Online Article Marketing, because I know that it does draw traffic to ones website if you put a good byline at the bottom of the articles. Consider this in 2006.
