Top 10 Tips For Successful Article Marketing

Article marketing is a form of local online advertising that is worth the time and effort to learn about

. This form is very cost effective and the results for your business could be immense. I have compiled a list of the top 10 tips I have come across for successful article writing.

1. Determine who you are marketing to. If you are advertising to a certain target audience, be sure your article uses terms and slang of that audience.

2. Be sure to focus on the intent of your article. Are you trying to answer a question? If you are, by the end of your article, that question needs to be answered. After writing the article, read it aloud to hear if your intended goal has been achieved. Do not have your reader thinking that they are going to get their question answered, only to let them down because you did not complete your intended goal.

3. Do not post the same article that you plan to use to promote your website. Your article could be thrown out or you could get into trouble with Google.

4. Be personal. Insert your personal opinion every once in a while.

5. Use short, easily understood sentences and paragraphs that are no longer than 5 lines.

6. Center your article around a certain topic, but leave room for linking it to another associated issue. Close in on your theme or keyword that you will be repeating in every article.

7. Be sure that your resource box contains your name or nickname, your website link, and a catchy phrase to entice readers to visit your website.

8. Be sure to double and triple check your article for grammar and punctuation before you submit it. Once you send it to the internet, it will be spread to various sites in cyber space. It is next to impossible to change any part of it.

9. Be choosy where you submit your article. Post it on websites that have high rankings and good search engine optimization.

10. When you get stressed out about article writing, just remember that it is a free way to achieve local website marketing. You could submit 2 to 3 articles per day and not only will your website ranking go up, so will your sales.

In conclusion, article marketing can seem like a daunting task. When you really look at it and compare the fact that it is FREE with the fact that it is effective, you will see that with a little effort, this form of advertising is a good way to get your local online ads in front of many potential customers.
