Writing 300 400 word articles and submitting them to multiple article directories allowing other publishers to make use of them on their own websites or in publications is easy, fun, and profitable.

Allowing others to use your articles not only gives the publishers free content, it gives you free advertising and more traffic back to your own website. You can benefit in the short term because publication on websites, in ezines and newsletters can give you instant traffic. In the mean time your articles will remain on the article directories. When people do searches on Google or any of the other search engines they use keywords. Should those keywords be relevant to an article that you have written your article may be returned by the search engine long after they are no longer they are no longer on websites or in ezines.

Submit your articles to as many article directories as you can. The chances of readers clicking through to your website increases exponentially as you increase the number of article directories to which your work is submitted

Writing articles in your chosen niche will build your personal credibility. In time you will become known as an expert and your name will be recognized as people begin to read more of your articles. With credibility comes trust. With trust comes higher sales volume. Building your credibility will also allow you to begin to market products of higher value. If you were purchasing a vacuum cleaner and were given two choices, the first being a generic model from your local Wal-Mart, and the second a Kirby. Both products are selling for the exact same price. Which would you choose? Most people would choose the Kirby because it is a name they recognize. The same holds true in article marketing. When people begin to recognize your name you will see your sales increase

Using Article Marketing can improve the ranking of your own website based on the increased number of links back to your site from the publishers of your articles and the article banks themselves. Improved page ranking will get your site moved up farther in the search engine results. Appearing higher in search engine results equates to more sales.

TIPS FROM THE TOP

For radio and TV: Approach producers as if they have ADD (attention deficit disorder). Get their attention fast. If your press release doesn't capture the producers' attention within the first ten seconds, you're dead; they'll be off on something else. They seldom read press releases, but when they do, they usually just scan the headlines and bullets. Producers' lives are blurs. Everything is an emergency or a crisis...so make press releases for producers shorter than those you send to print journalists. Tips:

Headlines are critical. They should be one line only, take seconds to read and focus on value and benefit.

The media is obsessed with three topics that it thinks audiences crave: money, sex and health. So, whenever possible, tie your headlines to those topics.

Establish a "Who Gives a Damn" meter. Determine if anyone would care about the information presented. If so, identify specifically who would care. Then determine why they would care. Once done, write headlines and bullets targeted to those who would care.

For print: For the print media the first paragraph of your press release is vital. It should run no more than three or four sentences and set forth all of the main points covered in the release. Don't muddy your opening paragraph with too much detail...Use subsequent paragraphs to further explain your story, including background, more specific information, and even include quotes or endorsements. But keep the entire release to one page. After you've drafted the release, tie it together with a catchy headline...always include your contact information at both the top and bottom of the page. [And remember] that print media can publish a press release, or parts of it, with little or no change, and their job is done. ___

If you are looking for a marketing tool that can virtually do it all - drive traffic to your website, improve your page ranking, position yourself as an expert on your chosen field, augment your sales potentials, and secure more sales - article marketing will work best for you.

Here are the 4 exciting steps to advance with article marketing:

1. Do not advertise on your content. Instead, strive to provide valuable information that will be useful and relevant to the needs and demands of your potential clients. Talk about their problems, issues that are affecting the niche to which they belong to, and possible solutions that can improve the quality of their lives. When you are able to educate and help you readers, they are more likely to trust you and consider doing business with you.

2. Improve your writing skills. The quality of the content of your articles is the major element that will determine the success of your article marketing strategy. Thus, it is vital that you continuously hone your writing skills to ensure that you will be able to deliver better articles each time you write.

3. Pick topics that are closely related to your products. In writing your articles, you must remember that one of your main goals is to sell your products and that it would help if the topics you write about are related to your offerings. This will make it easier for you to attract targeted traffic that can lead to improved sales potential.

4. Your articles must be scannable. As a writer, you have to accept the fact that most online users do not usually read articles word for word. They usually scan through the content to find specific information that they will find valuable to their concern and interests. To make it easier for them to read your articles, make them scannable. Use subheadings, short paragraphs, bullet points, and numbered lists whenever appropriate.

Article marketing is a very easy foolproof model to follow. There's so many article marketing models to follow online and many people's whole business model is transparent. Most people don't see this and remain blind to this. If you open your eyes and model someone (note, not copy someone! But model their business model), then you are suddenly in business!

Speaking of that, I do use a pseudo name for marketing articles in niche markets. Many other Internet marketers do that too. So if you don't want people to spy on your niche marketing, use a pseudo name.

Why do so many people write a few articles and then call it a day?

People see 5 views over 3 days and think their 30 minutes spent writing article was a complete waste of time.

The article goes on to get 100-200 views or even 1000+ views after a year or so. Multiply that by 100 articles, or even 1000 articles, and imagine the traffic.

Most people hate writing, would rather spend their money on 'quick fix' traffic rather than outsourcing, or just hate the thought of contributing to an article directory's content bank. The truth is, we rely on authority sites to get traffic! That's the way it works online.

If you hate writing (and that's the excuse I often hear), then outsource your articles! It's not difficult. You don't have to do everything yourself if you want to make it online. Find a good article writer at a good cost and get your army of articles out there.

Once you understand the power that article marketing can give your Web site, then you need to make sure that you are getting the most out of your articles. Otherwise, you are throwing both time and money down the drain. By simply putting a little more effort into your article writing, you can soon get more out of each one.

Don't Settle For Less Than Peak Article Performance

It is one thing to put a bunch of articles out there in cyberspace, but it is something altogether different to expect peak performances out of each one. By knowing what you expect with each article you post, you will be able to drive a lot more traffic from any article marketing campaign.

People who quickly write a fluff article and hope that it will draw a lot of people to their Web site will probably be disappointed rather quickly. The search engines are also learning how to tell a fluff article from one that has a higher level of quality content in it, too. This means that quality is always to be preferred above quantity.

Learn To Employ Best Writing Techniques

In order to get peak performance out of your article marketing campaign, it is necessary to learn what makes an article highly effective. You should learn the writing techniques that will make it work, and then employ them in each and every article you write.

Study other articles that really get your attention and discover what is different between it and your own articles. With each article you write, you need to deliberately work to make them more attractive, easy to read, and engaging to your readership.

Tweak It Until It Reaches The Peak Performance You Want

After you have an article out there in cyberspace, it will be necessary to watch how it performs. Most people do not do this, and so they end up having a lot of articles that are doing nothing. Think, though, what could a lot of articles do for your article marketing campaign that are reaching peak performance?

When you have an article that is not performing well after about a week, tweak the title some until it draws more viewers, and then make sure it is engaging enough throughout the article to keep the reader wanting more. Giving each article a little more attention once it has been posted is less time consuming than continually writing more ineffective articles.

It is true that not every article will perform as well as some others, but maybe they all could be performing better than they are. Tweak your articles more and see what it can do. You will probably be surprised what a few good articles could do if they are operating at peak performance. Isn't that the idea behind why the Marines only need a few good men?

We all know that, or should know that the search engines only really want to see one copy of any particular article or content or anything like that in the high rankings of a particular keyword. And that's actually understandable. You know, if you're searching for something specific, let's say deep-sea fishing. If you're searching for information on deap-sea fishing you don't want to click on the number one website and find that you read through the article, it's not what you like, or what you're looking for. You click on the number two and it's the same article rewritten. You click on the number three one and it's the same one rewritten again. And obviously it'd be crazy if we went through all through all ten of them, but that's really what the search engines are wanting to get away from. They want original content on each one of the pages and especially the ones that show up high. So what they do is they do is they penalize web pages that are rewritten or very similar from content that's on the pages. So the question is that I get from time to time is: how much do I have to rewrite an article? How much do I need to change it? And I'm very very hesitant to ever give a number.

Let me ask you this. Let's just say that search engines right now indicate that you have to change forty percent of the words or the order of the words--or the sentences or whatever. However you want to define forty percent. Let's just say that the search engines require that right now.

Article marketing is one of the best website SEO strategies that is designed to get free targeted traffic for your website. It works by writing original articles that are related to your target niche and submitting them to various article directories online. These articles are then posted by publishers so other webmasters and ezine publishers can use them for free as long as they keep the resource box that directs online users to your website.

1. The success in article marketing largely depends on the quality of articles your write. In order for your copies to be widely distributed, they must be easy to read, well-written and focused on your target niche. Focus on writing articles that offer solutions as these are the kinds of copies that are often search for by most online users.

2. Choose keyword-rich titles. People search the internet through the use of keywords. When you make your headlines keyword-rich, they will be most likely to be found by your potential readers. To further entice your readers to open your articles, make sure that your headlines are intriguing and attention-grabbing.

3. Keep your articles short. Online users today have shorter attention span and they prefer short articles that are direct to the point and meaty.

4. Multiple the number of your articles. While it it true that the quality of your articles is the number one element that dictates the success of your article marketing campaign, the quantity of your articles plays crucial part too. As each submission grants you one quality inbound link, the more articles you submit, the more links you obtain for your website that can result to increased traffic and of course, sales.

If you want to be a successful article marketer, you have to first find your article marketing technique. You will not make any money just by simply copying someone's writing style. You will fail and it won't be pretty. You have to find your own writing style as an article marketer.

When someone reads an article, they are reading about the author. They are not reading what the article is about. They are reading about what the author is about. The author's story is written into their article. Their article lives and breathes their authors name. When you read work written by someone, you should know that the content was made by that author, and no one else. When you create an article, it needs to be unique and it has to show your writing style.

Your writing style can be anything you want it to be. Just make your writing style authentic. When people read an article that isn't authentic, and it just looks like something copied and pasted, they won't care about you or your product. You have to make your article original and fact filled. When you have learned to master this, your profits will soar in.

Sometimes is takes weeks to find your writing style. This is okay! The more you write, the more you'll get closer to your writing style. Even if you think your found it, keep writing. Your writing style will always elude you. But if you keep writing, the closer you'll get to your perfect writing style. This is what is going to make you money. Your originality is the only thing that divides you from everyone else around you. Grasp it.

Article marketing is one of the most effective forms of online advertising. The term speaks for itself. It is basically combining marketing with articles. An article packed with tons of useful information would be well read by lots of people, and possibly your potential customers. It also presents you, the face behind the article as an expert with credibility in the topic of the article. Business owners who have not been using article marketing to promote their businesses are missing out on sales and business growth.

What goes into article marketing that makes it such a powerful marketing technique?

We will have a walkthrough on the entire process of article marketing so that by the end of it, you have the necessary knowledge to employ this for your business.

An article should ideally be at least 400 words long. Search engines used to love articles that have 300-word length, but it appears to have changed its taste. Once you know what topic you are writing about, decide on the outline of articles. The strategy is to single out a main subject such as a vacation in Hawaii, and then develop sub-topics such as how to find the cheapest airfare and accommodation and the fun activities you can do there. With an outline, you can then elaborate more on each sub-topic to develop the content. Stay on topic and do not venture to other unrelated stuff. Sprinkle the relevant keywords 5 or 6 times throughout the article.

The one most important thing to do in article marketing is to include the resource box or author box at the end of your article. This resource box allows you to introduce yourself and your business. You are also given the opportunity to list your website link. Readers who read your article will find the link and follow it to your website. This is how it drives traffic and visitors to your website.

Do not worry if you do not write well. You can still use article marketing as your promotion strategy. There are always ghostwriters who are willing to write quality articles for low fees. $5 an article is reasonable. Check out Scriptlance, Elance and RentaCoder etc.

Once you are done with article writing, you are halfway in your article marketing process. You need to now submit your article to article directories. There are hundreds to thousands of article directories that would accept your article for free such as EzineArticles, SearchWarp and GoArticles to name a few. Of course there are some that requires payment as well. But submitting to these free ones is good enough for your article marketing efforts. But make sure that you submit to at least 100 200 of them for maximum exposure.

As you do that, something is happening behind the scene. Readers looking for information either at the directories or search engines will find your articles. If the articles are well written, informative and entertaining, they would be enticed to click on the resource box link to your website. So, you now have targeted visitors at your website, and there is a probability that the visitors would become your customers.

Your articles may be selected by online or printed publications or press release companies for publishing. Your article marketing initiative would be richly rewarded when readers of these companies get to see your products and services.

Another advantage of article marketing is that many websites in the same or similar niche as yours are hungry for content. The webmasters would prowl the article directories for new fresh content and when they pick up your articles for publishing on their websites. Your business can enjoy much better visibility since you get a big pie of their traffic. Targeted traffic is it.

I forgot to mention about two big pluses of article marketing. While your articles get read, simultaneously, your website is linked from article directories and websites. The links are all one-way backlinks, the most valuable in the eyes of search engines. Some of these sites have high Google PageRank and therefore would transfer some of that to your website. In short, you are ahead of those who are paying through their nose for high PR link partners. You get them free and rank in the search engines higher and faster. Again, more traffic is on the way.

Search engine spiders hang out at article directories and would find your website link and index them quickly, sometimes within the same day. Being indexed can take weeks or even months but you have shortcut that using article marketing.

That is it. The essence of article marketing wrapped in a few hundred words. Give it a go and enjoy the benefits and profit potential article marketing can do for your website.

Everyone who has been a webmaster for some time or has read about it probably already knows that getting one way links to your web site is the single most important step in boosting your site up in search engines results pages (SERPs). Search engines just love these type of links, as they see them as votes to your page. If many people are voting to you by adding links to your site, than you must be some kind of an expert in your niche, and that is why Google and other search engines rank you higher in SERPs. They love experts, they love to give knowledge to people who are searching for information.

That said, you must ask yourself what is the best way to get bunch of one way links? Well the answer is writing articles. That is right, write articles about whatever you are expert on. And you do not need to be an expert to write articles, you just have to put some value in your article, to interest the readers, and there you have it, you have their attention, they believe you, and they will trust you when you tell them how to fix their problem, or give them great advice.

So, first, you have to find some niche that suits you best, something that you are good at, something that you like, maybe a hobby, or maybe something that you are familiar with. It is not difficult, just ask yourself what can you offer to help others. Be sure to include a link somewhere in a body of an article, and the anchor text (link text) should be main keyword phrase of your page.

Next thing you need to do is find article directories and lots of them. Just Google it. I am not going to tell you what are the best article directories, as you probably know, since you are reading this article. Create accounts and submit your articles. And thats it. Now you need to wait and see the results. And the results are great, I can tell you. For submitting your articles in article directories, you will get links from directories, and that is already very good for SEO. But the real power is in article distribution, and the variety of websites that are linking to you. So, for doing a fifteen minutes writing, you can get thousands of one way links, the best kind. It just can't get better than that!
