Article Marketing
Article marketing is an online advertising strategy used by many businesses to market their websites, products or services by writing short articles that are related to their industry. It is the practice of posting these keyword-focused writings on article syndication sites that have a good readership following. These articles will then be distributed and published in the marketplace.
Many opine that article marketing is an essential element in any internet marketing strategy. These articles have the intention of providing information and entertainment to online users. Typically these articles have a resource box or bio box that indicates the references and contact information of the writer's business.
The resource box may also contain a link back to the website that the author is promoting in order to attract the readers to visit that website.
Articles that are well-researched and written are usually released and distributed for free in order for the business to gain more credibility within the market.
Through these articles, a website or online business will be able to attract more new clients. Internet marketers usually submit the articles to several article directories in order to maximize the results of their online campaign.
In order to avoid the filtering process of the internet for duplicate content, internet marketers attempt what we call article spinning or article rewriting and rewording to give certain variations to the original article. Through this, the article can acquire site visitors coming from several websites for article directories.
Getting your article to be featured in niche blogs or focused content websites that are managed by others is a good and popular strategy in terms of article marketing. If you are a guest blogger on these websites, you will be able to introduce your business to an interested audience that may have been otherwise unreachable.
The common practice in internet publishing is to have your articles use relevant keywords and catchy titles with around 250 to 500 words in the body. If you incorporate the keywords or keyword phrases in your articles, it is possible to get more search engine traffic.
Which, among the hundreds of article directories, should you submit your articles to? This is actually one of the most tedious tasks in this marketing method. Today, businesses and experts usually outsource their article marketing methods including the submission process. The most popular article directories that are recommended include EzineArticles, IdeaMarketers and GoArticles.
Article marketing can also help you generate leads that you can include in your email list. In writing your articles, you must give the readers an offer so irresistible that it will prompt them to visit your website and sign up for your services. Once you have their information, you can start creating a sales-winning partnership with them. Failing to do this will not give you another chance to sell to your leads.
Among the best offers you can give your readers may include quizzes, special reports on a certain topic, free consultation sessions or free book chapters. This way, your readers will be enticed to provide you with their e-mail addresses that you can use to further send marketing news and information about your website.
Overall, the most important factor in article marketing is to get people to visit your website and sign up or purchase one of your services. Writing articles that are accurate, specific and helpful will attract more potential leads or clients.

Step-by-Step Checklist To Affiliate Success
With everything you’ve learned to date, I’ll bet your head
is swimming. Below is a plan that you can implement to get you started on the
road to affiliate success and profit.
Get Organized!
Pick on
affiliate network (I suggest Clickbank because it’s easy). Spend a couple of
hours learning the ins and outs of how it works. Look at the gravity, sale
percentages and pick some products and make some affiliate links so that you
are fully familiar with how the process works.
Go to CB
Trends and CB Engine and make sure you understand how they can help you pick
winners.
Stop by
the Google AdWords tool and search for about 10 keywords for each product that
you pick making sure that they are low competition, good traffic keywords and
key phrases.
Keep good notes about what you are doing so that you can
refer back to them later.
Sign up for Pay Per
Click programs
Get yourself the following Pay Per Click accounts:
AdWords,
Yahoo Publisher and MSN Ad Center accounts.
Make a
decision about whether you are going to build a website or work strictly
through Pay Per Click advertising.
Sign up for Clickbank
Sign up
for Clickbank and get your nickname if you didn’t do that yesterday.
Go through the help files at Clickbank, AdWords, etc. so
that you understand basically how each program works.
Video Training
Make a
decision about which program you want to use to make your 1 minute videos.
Look on
YouTube and search under Camtasia training. You will find a ton of videos on
how to make a decent video.
Check out
www.TubeMogul.com for free uploading
of your videos after they’re done. If you want more options, there is a paid
portion that will allow you to submit to more video sites. Also, you can
consider Traffic Geyser for maximum coverage with videos, if you have some
money to spend. www.trafficgeyser.com
Article
Marketing is one of the easiest ways to get steady traffic to your website.
Using good keyword/key phrase research will get you a ton of traffic as you
write articles based on the results. In those article directories, you can put
links back to your site and that will send traffic your way.
Ø
Never
submit the same article to multiple sites.
Ø
You
need to change your article by at least 50% for each site. This is not as hard
as you might think. Check out Unique Article Wizard located at: www.uniquearticlewizard.com on how to accomplish that.

How To Drive Traffic To Your Blog
Article Marketing
A great way to drive traffic is to write articles
related to your niche and submit them to article directories. Some of these
directories include Ezinearticles, GoArticles, and ArticlesBase.
These websites receive thousands or even millions of
visitors per month, and every article you write allows you to take a small
chunk of that traffic and drive it to your website.
In order to be successful with article marketing, you
need to submit lots of articles, preferably on a regular basis. Some bloggers
drive their traffic SOLELY from article marketing.
Of course, it does require a bit of work. Some
bloggers find it exhausting, after updating their websites with fresh content,
to go back and write a bunch of unique articles on the same topic.

Driving Traffic To Your Blog
Okay, so you've got your blog up and running and ready
to make money! Now how do you get people to read this thing?!
Here is a brief overview of some of the things you can do to drive traffic to your blog.
Social Bookmarking
Social bookmarking is a way for web browsers to
organize and share their bookmarks with each other. When a blog is bookmarked,
it is referenced by a popular website, which increases its visibility on Google
and also its exposure to web traffic.
Websites such as Socialmarker and Onlywire allow you
to bookmark your blog to multiple bookmarking sites with relative ease. There
are also programs like Socialbot that will automatically bookmark your site for
you, without any effort on your part.

Of course, it does require a bit of work. Some
bloggers find it exhausting, after updating their websites with fresh content,
to go back and write a bunch of unique articles on the same topic.
Forum Marketing
Forum marketing is one of the most effective ways of
driving traffic to your blog. Register at forums related to your niche and put
a link to your blog in your signature.
Post regularly and become known on the forums as an
“authority” in your niche – someone who knows what they're talking about.
People will naturally be drawn to the link in your signature because they'll
want to learn more about you.
Don't actively promote your website in your posts and
definitely do NOT SPAM. Just write intelligent, concise posts on a regular
basis and soon you'll begin to notice an increase in traffic to your blog.
Guest Blogging
You can benefit from another blog's traffic by
becoming a guest blogger. Many popular bloggers have used this method to drive
traffic to their own blogs.
It's highly
effective for bloggers who wish to rise from obscurity in the blogosphere.
Basically, you write a blog entry for another blog in
your niche – preferably one that gets a lot of traffic. If your blog post is
interesting and well-written, naturally readers will follow the link to your
own blog to check out more of your stuff.
Organic Search Engine Traffic
One of the best ways of driving traffic is by ranking
organically in Google. This is where the keyword research and competition
analysis discussed earlier in the eBook comes into play.
Your blog should be properly optimized for your
keywords (preferably, your keyword should appear in the URL, in the title, and
around 2% density in your blog posts-- bolded or italicized).
In order to rank for these keyword phrases, you'll
need to build backlinks. A backlink is an incoming link to your website. The
more backlinks to your site, the more important it appears to Google and the
higher it'll rank in the SERPS. It's particularly important to gain backlinks
with your keyword as the anchor text.
You can gain backlinks by writing articles, posting on
forums, commenting on other blogs, and using the various backlink “packages”
that are available for purchase.
The higher the site's PR (Page Rank), the more weight
your backlink will hold in Google's eyes. So try to concentrate on getting high
PR backlinks.
If you conducted proper competition analysis, ranking
on Google for your keyword(s) should be a fairly manageable (although
time-consuming) task. However, if you chose keywords that are too competitive,
you'll probably have trouble getting anywhere near the first page of Google.
This is why keyword research is so important for niche
bloggers.
In Closing...
You should now have a good general idea of
what it takes to be a successful blogger. You should have enough knowledge to
get your first blog off the ground and making money in a short amount of time.
This guide only skims the surface, but
your knowledge and expertise will grow the longer you work on your blogs. You
can read as many guides and ebooks as you want, but that alone won't be enough
to make you any money. Only through taking action and learning by trial and
error will you be able to become a truly successful blogger.
