subject: Article Marketing For Newbie- Step By Step Process To Make Money Using Article Marketing. [print this page] So you are looking to make some money online and the true is there is lot of money to be made but
How do I make money right? It is nice to hear that others are making money but if you are not then whats the point.
If you are new to internet marketing then article marketing is great place to start because it is free and pretty easy to do.
Article marketing is a way of promoting your business, website or product. People can read your article and click on links in the article to get to your website or product.
When they come to your website or your affiliate offer they see your product, they like it, they buy it and you make money. This is very simple concept but you have to know where to start.
There are three key elements every article marketing newbie should have at least basic knowledge of:
1.Where to submit your articles
Dont go crazy about submitting to a hundred directories. I dont want you to worry about backlinks to your site at this point which you will get anyway but this is not your main goal. Submit your content to top five directories and trust me that is enough.
2.How to choose the best keyword phrase related to your product
This is in my experience the most important step. Before you start writing and selling anything you must do some research. You probably have some idea about a product or affiliate offer that you want to promote but before you do use Google to find out what are you chances of making some money.
Try to target a phrase related to any product you want to promote that has between 1000 to 5000 optimized results on Google. This means that if you search any phrase in quotes you will get the number of sites you are competing with.
Then go to Google keyword tool and find out how many searches there are for that phrase. Anything above 500 a month is fine and remember you can always find another product to promote if this doesnt match up.
3.How to create quality content that will generate clicks and sales
This is the second most important step. You have to be able to write good and quality content around your keyword phrase. If you are article marketing newbie and think you are not able to do that at this point hire someone to do this for you and study and learn so you can do it yourself.
