Okay, so you've got your Ezine all designed and ready to go. All you
need now is some good content to send to people. Time to get out your
trusty keyboard and start pumping out those killer articles. Certainly
you know everything there is to know about the subject of your Ezine
and should have no trouble...

What's that you say? You couldn't write a post-it to pick up milk at
the store if you tried? Not a problem. There is no rule that says you
have to write all the content for your Ezine by yourself, or at all
for that matter. There is tons of content all over the Internet about
a variety of subjects.

What's that you say? You don't want to have to pay for content? Not a
problem. There are plenty of places where you can get content for
free. Well, almost for free anyway. There is always going to be some
kind of catch but at least in many cases that catch isn't going to
cost you anything out of your pocket.

The most common catch is that the person who supplies content for your
Ezine is going to insist that he be allowed to include a link to his
site at the end of the article. This isn't a problem unless he just
happens to run a site that is in direct competition with yours. For
example, let's say you have a site that specializes in collectable
baseball cards and the person who you want to get an article from also
has the same kind of site. There is a very good chance that he will
steal some of your business, especially if he has a larger inventory.
So you have to weigh the pros and cons of using an article from this
person.

Another common catch to getting articles from a person, site or
service is that you have to subscribe to the service in order to do
this. This usually means giving them your email address. What this
does is it makes it so that this person, site or service can send you
their own offers to your email account. This can become a bit of a
pain in the rear end if these people start sending you ten emails a
day.

Ideally, you want to be able to find free content that has no strings
attached at all. This will require a bit of digging and you won't find
much. People on the Internet don't work for nothing. They are going to
expect something in return for using their work, even if it's just a
footnote at the bottom of the article with their name and a link to
their site.

However, having said that, if you really do some digging, you can find
free content with no strings attached. The easiest way to do this is
to go to any search engine and type in "free content for Ezines with
no strings attached." Leave out the quotes or they'll match it
exactly. If you look hard enough you will find a few places that will
give you content to use. It may not be the greatest quality but it
will be free and with no strings.
