Article/Review building: bullet points vs paragraphs

Hello, I'm very new to the affiliate marketing buisness. I'm am justing starting up and having a little bit of trouble with building an article. I don't know whether to use just paragraphs or point form notes. Where should I look to grab information to put into my article?

Any suggestions so I don't take 30 min thinking of what to write about?

 To get ideas for your articles, you can do the following:

1. go to ezinearticles.com home page and type your keywords (in the sidebar, at the bottom, just scroll down and you will find a box)

2. Type in Google and get some ideas

3. Go to sites like ehow.com, about.com, etc...

4. Go to yahoo answers and type your keywords

After doing this exercise, you will have a lot to write!

As for using paragraphs, the 7 tips method is super easy and fast.

All the best,
Franck

 Here is more info about the 7 tips template:

Let's say that I am writing an article about how to be a better martial
artist and I choose the “7 Tips” template (more on this below), my 7 bullets
would be:

NOTE: you come with the 7 points first.

Afterwards, you write two or three sentences under each bullet.

At the end, you write the title and the conclusion.

Example:

Article #1: How to become a super fighter

1. choose a good sensei (teacher)
2. get the right equipment
3. Practice even on week end
4. Get your sparring partner
5. Don't miss your class
6 ask questions to your sensei
7. don't forget the traditional jogging for stamina

For the sake of this example, this is my raw article. Then, the next step is to write a sentence under each point.

I do this until I have a 300-400 word article.

Hope it makes sense.

Let me know if you need more info on this.

All the best,
Franck
