Plus, it has benefits. You can include a resource box to get traffic to your sites and to perhaps attract paying clinets that way. The greatest thing about article writing is timing. A typical article is anywhere from 400 to 600 words long (I personally aim for about 450). It's quite possible to put out an article on a subject that you know about in 10 minutes. So, you can fit this into around other tasks, or when you don't have time to work on part of a larger project. Definitely a valid skill for everyone to have.
