subject: 3 Tips to Improve Your Article Marketing by:TJ Philpott [print this page] Considering every type of traffic generation technique available online there is none that compare with the consistency or longevity of article marketing.
Although this particular marketing strategy may seem a little labor intensive for some there's no questioning its effectiveness. Writing articles about anything related to your niche or product enables you to attract more highly targeted traffic. If the article you write is popular enough it can be circulated on the internet for an indefinite period of time. Not bad for a 'one time effort'.
What we want to look at here is how to maximize the effectiveness of our article writing.
Here are 3 simple ways to get your articles read and flood your websites with plenty of targeted traffic:
Be Original
When composing the content for any article you want to be sure it is your own work. Firstly search engines will penalize you for duplicate content, and this will result in your article not getting published. Just as important is that readers won't be motivated to read any content they've already seen before.
You want to supply readers with something new and useful that they can benefit from in some way. Whether it's a different insight, humor, or newly uncovered information your article should stand apart as unique.
One more note here is to put away the dictionary when writing articles and minimize the 25 cent words. Even though you do want to sound intelligent you also want 'everyone' who reads your work to understand it.
Make Your Headlines Work
Before anyone reads your articles it is the headline they see first. In fact it is the headline that attracts readers to begin with. Their decision to read further will many times be based upon how eye catching it may be. Writing a witty, humorous, or descriptive headline will greatly increase the chances of your article getting both noticed and read.
Don't overlook the value a good headline adds to your article. True as it may be that the content is located in the body of your article, what good is it if it doesn't get read?
Submit Articles Frequently
To maximize your exposure you'll want to submit many articles and consistently to make your campaign effective.
You definitely want to set up a regular schedule to submit articles to the online directories. Whether you choose to compose numerous articles at a time for submission or perhaps just a few to submit on a more frequent basis is up to you. Choose whatever approach to submit articles that work best with your schedule and habits and stick to it.
This type of marketing strategy relies upon consistency, quality, and frequency. Enough said.
Article marketing if done correctly is virtually a fool proof method of traffic generation online. Your article writing efforts will be greatly rewarded by adhering to the 3 simple yet impactful steps we reviewed above. By composing and frequently submitting content that is uniquely your own with attention getting titles you will attract a steady flow of traffic. I need not explain what this could mean to your online ventures what ever they may be!
