To all writers and non-writers out there, now is the time to start digging up those creative writing skills.With modern communication technology comes the popularity of information-based marketing, which is one of the oldest and most effective techniques in getting targeted prospects to sites and converting them into buyers. This is

Providing quality content to your readers is golden and article marketing has been a proven marketing method many times over.

Writing informative articles is not the only way that article marketing will help your business:

1. Free Content

As for me I blog a lot, run several sites and coming up with posts seems impossible some days.

That's when I start to research articles that closely match my sites niche and use them as blog posts.

Email the author of the article and let them know you used their content including a link directly to their article.

2. Newsletters

Use articles to send out in newsletters.

Again I sometimes come up short with ideas for newsletters or would rather delegate the writing to someone else.

Keep your readers engaged by sending out regular newsletters with quality information and articles.

3. Start Your Own Article Directory

There are several ways that you can start your own article directory and one kickback is to make money from advertisements.

If you like your site more personalized you can hire a web designer to create one for you if you don't know how to already.

Search for free software or customizable templates that are actual article directory that you can create.

You can do what I do because I'm big on blogging so I made a mini directory as a part of one of my marketing blogs: Urban Writ

4. Ad Copy

An attention getting article can be used in web or print advertising. Post the article as a teaser and let readers know that they can find 'more information like this' at your website.

5. E-Zines

Search for articles that contain valuable content that your readers can appreciate. Instead of contacting the author to offer a guest spot use a series of their articles over a period of time.

Hidden Perks

Other benefits of using pre-written articles is the use of key phrases. A well written article may rank high for search engines and bring your web site to front page.

Sending the authors some traffic for work they have already done may get you some return traffic from their site.

Readers have the opportunity to deviate from your site by clicking the links in the resource box of the article. Keep in mind the time saved writing can be used to build your business instead.

I am sure that if you have a dynamic website i.e. a website using a scripting language like php or asp then you will probably have problems with the search engines indexing your web site. I had a website using php and I had serious trouble to get the search engines to index it.

Now the main problem comes in that you usually will have a dynamic page and that page will reference other dynamic pages to represent the information in your database. Usually search engines do not follow other dynamic pages from a dynamic page. Also all your content will look identical as they will have the same title and heading tags with the content from the database being different.

The way to get around this problem is to first design your php code to represent the title and heading tags based on your database. So for example if you have a classified web site the title of the page will become the title of the advertisement and similarly you can make the heading this as well. This will give you unique pages that Google will index better since Google does understand dynamic pages as long as the content is unique.

Now to get around the second problem you would have to design static pages that you link to from your home page. Each static page can represent a category so for example if you have a car classifieds website you can create a different static page representing a different model e.g. Ford cars. Now from this static page you will have to create new code to link to all the detailed pages based on this category. Your detail pages will be dynamic pages based in php or asp.

Finally, ensure that you have a site map as this will make it easier for Google to understand your website properly.

If you have a website, nothing may be as important to you as attracting quality traffic. One of the best ways to do just that is to use quick article marketing. Article marketing means that you submit articles that are relevant to you website and distribute them online. The result is that people read your articles and then are directed to your website. If you wish to get started in article marketing, here are six quick steps.

1. Write for quality, not quantity. There is so article marketing on the Internet these days, and the vast majority of it is junk. The articles that attract the most attention and rise to the top of online tiers are ones that are well-written, original, informative and interesting. You could submit 100 junk articles that wouldnt do as much for your business as one high quality article that gets a lot of coverage.

2. Have a good headline. The article headline is 90% responsible for how much traffic and distribution the article will get. Keyword optimization always helps.

3. Make sure you include some active URLs at the bottom of your article with your companys name. This will help tremendously in generating traffic and links.

4. Be consistent. Just like any other kind of advertising, quick article marketing needs to be done on a consistent basis to keep generating results.

5. Submit articles to a small list of relevant publishers. This is much more effective than sending them to lots of irrelevant publishers.

6. Keep the articles reasonably short. You want the reader to get to the bottom of the page and see your website link.

If you have tried writing articles and just didn't get the results you expected, add some of these high-performance tips for better results.

The first step in writing a high-performance article is writing a headline that captures the readers attention. Use words in your title that create curiosity and interest. I often use an online thesaurus for generating word ideas.

The next step is to keep your article's content consistent with title of article. One mistake article writer's often make is writing content that doesn't match the article title. If title of the article is about dog training tips and you then spend the article discussing the joys of having a dog, there is a good chance you will lose your reader before they finish the article. A key point is to stay focused on the main subject for your article.

I know it may sound silly but make sure you provide useful information. Often times I will start reading an article and quickly find the article isn't telling me anything useful and go on to the next article. It's important you provide useful information to your reader so they will continue to read the article.

Keep sentences short and clearly written. Hard to understand sentences will lose readers quickly. If in doubt, be sure to edit the sentence so it is easier to read.

Write personally. Use a personal tone when writing your article. Let your reader get to see your personality whenever possible. Just don't over do it.

Determine the goal for your article. As an article writer, you need to determine your purpose for the article. Is the goal to start building a relationship with your reader? Is is to have the reader sign-up for a newsletter? Determining the article's goal will help you craft your message in the article so you get a better end result.

In closing, I hope you find these high-performance tips useful. Article Marketing can be a powerful marketing tool if used correctly.

Today, SEO is swiftly approaching saturation point. More and more webmasters realise the necessity of learning SEO basics, and as they do so, SEO professionals are facing difficulties finding new clients. With all the niche sites optimised, it will be harder to compete for good key phrases. Link building opportunities will be easily found and utilised by everyone, keyword density will reach its optimum value, meaning that the SERPs will consist of equally good and equally relevant sites - at least from the traditional SEO point of view.

Spammy techniques, still popular and sometimes even effective, will exhaust themselves even quicker. There are, really, not so many different methods of deceiving the search engines and increasing a site's relevancy artificially; today they just differ in details. Perhaps it explains why we don't see spammy sites in the SERPs as often as we used to - our smart spiders catch them quite soon and throw this low-rate stuff away to keep the web cleaner. As soon as spiders become smart enough to recognise spam on the fly, the particular class of "SEO specialists" propagating such rubbish will find themselves out of their jobs. It is not really hard to tell an ugly doorway from the real thing.

So who will survive? What is the way to tomorrow in SEO science?

First of all, we should monitor and analyse the latest tendencies, then extrapolate them and make good guesses on how things may look in the future. Finally, we put them to test using logic and common sense.

This will show us the true answers and help us compete when the time comes to offering ground-breaking SEO services that exploit the new qualities of search engines.

And common sense tells us that the core purpose of the search engines will never change. They are supposed to deliver the best results they can. If they are not always so good at it today, it is often explained by their restricted resources; but that will change over time.

The search engines of the future will be capable of reading JavaScript, CSS, Flash and other things that are invisible to them now. It is technically possible already, but requires more complicated algorithms and more bandwidth, so they are not so eager to implement it just yet. They prefer to sacrifice additional capabilities in favour of spiders' speed and the freshness of their indices. But as the technical factors improve, SEs will improve and create new sensations every day, all the more so since they always have to compete with each other.

Thus, JavaScript links will count. CSS spam will be easily detected and banned. Flash sites will become a new niche for SEO specialists - at the moment they require an HTML version to subject to search engine optimisation.

But these changes are not the most important ones. Link popularity analysis algorithms are sure to become more sophisticated - and capable of analysing the "likeliness" of one or another link pattern given the information on a site's age, size and content. That will mean death to link schemes, link farms, pyramids, automated submissions, and numerous links with the same anchor text - and, perhaps, shake the basis of the today's reciprocal linking strategies. Relevancy will mean more, and in cases of complementary businesses linking their sites to each other, search engines will become capable of seeing if they are really complementary, not just pretending to be so.

Also, sites written in different languages but relevant in theme will be translated on the fly and count as relevant - which perfectly fits the worldwide tendency of forming international businesses. That makes international SEO companies more likely to survive.

And, most important, search engines will become capable of analysing context. Google is already playing with stemming and buying semantic packages; synonym analysis and related words (i.e. affordable services - low prices - tight budget - financial flexibility - and, perhaps, even small business package in the same row) won't take long to come.

That will bring revolution to the whole SEO copywriting industry. Today the SEO copywriter's skills are determined by his/her ability to include targeted keywords in the SEO copy without breaking its readability; in most cases it is bound to reduce the quality of the text, unless you hire a very capable writer. Tomorrow, exact keyword matches will be less important. That will make the copywriters' work easier in some ways - and harder in others. It could be hard to part with the habits acquired over time and develop totally new approaches and methods.

But the Net will benefit from it.

Those who want to make their SEO copy flexible and artistic might lose points today, but will win tomorrow. And that will be the end for doorways - completely and irreversibly.

Be prepared to accept new SEO This is the only advice that seems reasonable. My forecast may not be precise, but today's tendencies have already confirmed that this course of events is the likely one.

So, when optimising your site today, think of its contextual relevancy. Of course, include your targeted keywords - but also make sure the overall subject of the site reinforces the point. Do not be afraid of synonyms and related words: they will make your copy more natural and attractive today, and are very likely to make it more relevant tomorrow.

When building links today, vary your titles and descriptions from directory to directory and from link partner to link partner. Throw away all the automated submitters; do it manually. It is hard and time-consuming, but it is also a reliable and strong method of protecting your site from future algorithm whims. It means quality; and I strongly believe that quality will never betray you.

And never stop learning. Visit forums, read fresh articles, exchange opinions with other SEO professionals. Never assume you know everything.

And never be satisfied. It is only inquiring minds that will win in the end.

Get paid to write online with article marketing is a fantastic way to make money online. This common method is better known as bum marketing to those who have been in the game for awhile. Anyone can write articles and siphon prospects from the search engine, but you need to known a few things before you start shoveling all that money into your bank account.

When trying to get paid to write online keep these simple tips in mind.

• Search Engine placement - If you do not learn how to get your articles ranked in the search engines they will never be read. For a ton of readers you need to land on the first page, for a selected keyphrase. Simple, find a keyword phrase that has little competition and write your article using that keyword 1 time per every 115 words.

• Subject Heading - Your subject better capture the internet searchers attention. You are basically given a 1-10 chance to capture the readers attention when they type a phrase into the search engines, like Yahoo and Google. Focus on writing compelling subject headings, if no one clicks on your article in the search engine, no one reads it.
• Resource box - You need to write a eye popping resource box. Your goal is to get at least 30% of the people who read your article to click thru to your landing page. This is so important, if your resource box does not seduce the reader to click thru, you lose a shot at a sale or opt in.

You are very limited in the amount of mistakes you are allowed to make when you get paid to write online.

Any wise marketer today will surely not dismiss article marketing if he is trying to drive traffic to his site. For one, this technique is not only proven to increase the number of visitors a website receives every single day, but more importantly it improves the website's page rank. Not to mention, it is also a good avenue for webmasters to showcase their expertise so they can convince their readers to trust them then eventually buy from them.

By now, I am pretty sure that you would like to use this technique so you can get all the benefits I have mentioned. So, let's uncover the 4 steps to make money through this marketing technique:

1. Write as many articles as you can. In article marketing, the quantity and quality of your articles play crucial role in driving traffic to your website. Thus, I strongly suggest that you create at least 5-7 unique articles per day. This will yield to at least 25 articles per week, enough to increase your site's popularity and page rank.

2. Be direct. In writing articles for the web, it is important that you have the ability to get your message across without beating around the bush. So be direct and communicate your point quickly. The more time you spend using fillers or fancy words, the more time you are allowing your target audience to switch to your competitors.

3. Your articles must be related to your website or your products. There is no sense in writing travel articles with URL pointing to a website about how to make money online. The reason why your readers will click the URL on your resource box is for further reading or to get more information about the topics your have discussed in your articles.

4. Post your articles on blogs. If you are looking for other ways to market your article other than article directories, post your articles on your blog or somebody else's blogs that share your topic. Like article submission sites, blogs are easily indexed by search engines because they are so in demand and they are frequently updated.
