Article Marketing Techniques That Work

Is article marketing an effective strategy? Absolutely. In fact, in the last 2 months I’ve personally generated almost a thousand leads from article marketing alone. I’m new to online marketing, too. In fact, I’ve only been marketing my business online for 60 days. Sometimes I see people online who are frustrated with article marketing, and I think that it’s because they don’t understand the basic mechanics of search engine placements. So what I’m going to do in this article is simply share some ideas that have helped me generate more than 35,000 visitors to my website in the last 2 months from article marketing.

First, you want to keep your articles relevant to the reader. You may be wondering what I mean. You need to help people solve issues that they’re having with your articles, or you won’t get any traction from your marketing efforts. Sometimes you see an article that says it’s about one thing, but the information isn’t helpful at all. That’s a BAD idea if you want to build a stable, long term business. You want to speak directly to the core issues of your readers as much as possible. Relevant, useful information is step one in ranking in the search engines.

Next, you need to make sure that your author biography has useful resources that are targeted at your article subject matter. What I mean is, don’t have an article about ‘How to Make Pea Soup’ and then have a resource box that says ‘Mr. Awesome makes 10 billion dollars a year teaching people how to be rich online…’ Get the drift? Simply make your marketing message as focused on the issue as you can.

The third thing that you need to do is create a lot of incoming one way links to your article if you want it to rank in Google and stay on the front page. When I say a LOT I mean A LOT. Most people assume that just because something is on EzineArticles or any other article directory that it will rank high… and it won’t. You want to at a minimum use OnlyWire to create social bookmarkers to all of your articles the moment after they are published. That will immediately give your articles backlinks, attention, and more traffic than if you don’t do it.

The last idea I have for you is that you need to create A LOT of original content. Most people online simply don’t write enough articles to make any significant difference long term for their websites. How much content do you need to make? As many as you could possibly do. I make sure that personally I create one new article every single day.

My final thought for you is to be optimistic! After getting down some basic concepts on article marketing, making money on the internet was one of the easiest things I have ever done. Keep your eyes out for more useful tips! More are on the way soon!
