New To Article Marketing? First Step To Getting Started
You've tried pay per click. You've even tried social media platforms, but you just can't get any traction. So what to do? Article marketing, that's right! This article is for those new to article marketing and assumes you know absolutely nothing about how to make money writing articles. This article is to show you the easiest way to get you ranked number one on Google to maximize traffic to your site.
No, I'm not trying to insult you. The fact is, 98 out of 100 courses offered online purporting to teach you how to this or that, assumes the reader is at the same knowledge level as they are. Hence, the reason why so few actually finish the course or ever execute anything. There is nothing more frustrating than spending your cash on something that you find out is written for someone who has extensive Wordpress knowledge that you don't, for example.
Let's skip right to the point. You are new to article marketing and need help getting started. The goal is to get your article ranked number one on Google. My suggestion to you is to use a long tail keyword in the title. A long tail keyword is a logical extension of a root keyword.
For example article marketing' is a root keyword. A long tail keyword may be article marketing strategy'. The reason for this is simple. You are promoting a specific product right? Then why would you use general keywords for people just looking for information?
This leads me to a major point. You want to target buyers. You want people who have the information and have made a decision to buy. Somebody searching article marketing' is looking for information. Someone searching article marketing course', or best article marketing course', knows that they want a course, and is looking for a product. They are probably new to article marketing and need some help.
The closer you narrow down your target the better. Here is an example. Let's say someone is a collector of antique sewing machines. They regularly scout garage sales, ebay and other places to buy. Here's how their search may break down. sewing machines'? No, too general. Maybe sewing machines for sale'? Nope, this will bring people looking for new machines. How about antique sewing machines for sale'? BINGO!
You are selling stuff, whether it is tangible or information. Don't waste your time talking to tire kickers! Go to Google and test this example. Make sure you put your search phrase in parenthesis. This will yield results that match the exact phrase, not just variations. What is your competiton for antique sewing machines for sale'? Do you think you have a good shot at ranking on the first page?
The best place to start for those people new to article marketing, to search for keywords is Google Keyword Tool. Fool around in there and see the different variations of how to search. Sort your search by competition. Ideally you want to have high search volume(shown globally and locally) with low competition(shown with blue bar).
The reason you want a long tail keyword in your title is because it has a greater likelihood of being ranked on the first page of Google. Make sure your long tail keyword isn't ten words. It should be no more than 5 words. Ideally 3 or 4. This makes it easier to use it naturally in the article as well which will help it rank higher. You will want to use it about once per 75-100 words.
Being new to article marketing, or anything for that matter, is exciting. It's a chance to challenge yourself.
Should I Buy An Article Marketing Course?
That decision is really up to you. Since you are new to article marketing, it may be a way to lessen the learning curve. Some like to learn it on their own. The problem is this takes a long time because there are many aspects to master.
What did I do you ask? For me,
I needed to make money immediately, so I didn't have time for the learning curve. I was fortunate enough to have found an awesome product by an incredible copywriter. I was able to make $450 my first month, and was able to pay some bills I may have been late on had I not made that money.
Whatever you decide I wish you luck and am more than will to answer any question you may have. Just leave a comment at the bottom.
