The short answer to this question is yes. Paraphrasing tools can be highly helpful for affiliate content writing.
As for the question of how. That is what this post is about.
Paraphrasing Tools: What are They and How Do They Work?
To get a good idea of what paraphrasing tools are, let’s first understand what paraphrasing itself is.
In a nutshell, paraphrasing is the process of changing the words and sentence arrangement(s) in a piece of text to make it look different than what it originally is albeit conveying the same meaning.
Paraphrasing is typically something that a person i.e., a writer or a student, does when the need arises.
Paraphrasing tools, on the other hand, are the modern solution to do the same thing automatically without human effort.
Or, to bring it together somewhat simply, we can say that tools that paraphrase are called paraphrasing tools.
Now let’s talk about how they actually work.
These tools are basically equipped to read the given content and then effect different changes to it. Depending on how high-quality the tool in question is, those changes can be sparse or extensive.
If, for example, the tool is AI-equipped, it will understand the given content very deeply, and it will likewise make changes to it smartly. But if it is just a normal simple tool, it will merely skim the surface, so to speak.
How are paraphrasing tools helpful when writing affiliate marketing content?
Here are some of the ways in which paraphrasing tools can be helpful when writing affiliate content.
And we should, by the way, point out the fact that paraphrasing tools are helpful in the writing process. They don’t write or create content themselves.
They only work when you provide them with content.
That basically means that you have to write the affiliate content initially yourself, but you can take help from them as the process goes along.
1. By helping reduce word redundancy
Word redundancy means when some words are used over and over again in a piece of content. This can make the content look boring and repetitive, which can consequently hurt its overall engagement.
Affiliate content is usually long form. This is not a rule of thumb – but oftentimes, affiliate marketing content is written in the form of long reviews that span across a few thousand words.
Due to the length of these articles/reviews, some words and phrases can get overused a little. This can be caused by a lack of vocabulary on the writer’s part or simply due to the nature of the content.
Paraphrasing tools can be a good remedy for this problem. One of the main changes that pretty much every paraphrasing tool makes to the given content is synonymizing.
Although there are other steps included in the overall process, the main crux of paraphrasing lies in word changing.
So, by using a free paraphrasing tool on your affiliate content, you can fix the places where the wording is redundant and repetitive. Here is what we mean:
2. By making your content smooth and better flowing
This is something that you can only do with AI-driven paraphrasing tools.
While normal paraphrasing tools can be helpful for normal synonymizing and stuff, they aren’t that reliable when it comes to actively improving the quality of the given content, i.e., by making it flow better.
When we use the word “flow,” we basically refer to the way the sentence(s) are formed and how well the words/phrases join together with one another. For example, the sentence:
Brevity is important in marketing content.…flows a lot better than the sentence:
Keeping things short and concise is a factor of importance in content written for marketing purposes.
They both have the same meaning, but they are poles apart as far as the flow and quality go.
Using a smart paraphrasing tool on the clunky parts of your content can un-clunk-ify them.
Here is what that would look like:
3. By making your content unique
When you’re writing affiliate marketing content, you have to often talk about products and services that are, in most cases, already discussed by a lot of other online sources.
That can lead you to commit plagiarism unknowingly.
This type of annoying sneaky plagiarism is known as the accidental kind, and it is something that everyone – even the most proficient of writers – has to deal with.
So, when you’re writing affiliate content, and you get done with the first draft, one of the primary things that you have to do is check it for plagiarism.
If there is no plagiarism or if it happens to be in a minimal percentage, you can overlook it.
But, if it is a lot, you have to get rid of it via paraphrasing.
And this is something in which you can take help from a high-quality paraphrasing tool.
The paraphrasing tool would just restate the plagiarized parts and make them unique.
Conclusion
Paraphrasing tools have a specific purpose, and they perform a specific function. They rephrase the content you give them.
You can use this functionality to your benefit in a number of ways when writing affiliate content.
We’ve talked about some of the main ways in the post above.
You can use them to improve the quality of your content by improving the flow, reducing redundancy, and eliminating plagiarism if it happens to be in your content.
