1. Articles

Quality article directories such as EzineArticles.com and GoArticles.com, are a source of quality content. These directories have editorial staff that filter all article submissions and only accept high quality articles.

This will save an article writer a lot of time, because if they were relying totally on search engines they would spend a lot of time sorting the 'quality' from the 'junk'.

Use the 'search' feature in these article directories to find content relevant to the article topic you wish to write. Read several articles and take note of any interesting points, statistics or resources.

2. Forums and Blogs
You need to 'hang out' in online locations where people knowledgeable on your topic congregate. Use Google's search filters to pinpoint suitableblogs and forums.

Google "Blog + your topic" and "forum + your topic", to return highly relevant results. Be sure to include the inverted commas.

If you are an internet marketer be sure to checkout the warrior forum.
