Anyone can write an article but are they successful articles that people will read completely, click through to your squeeze page and join your list? In order to do this you must have good material and know how to use it.
Here are 3 surefire tips that will help you write and publish successful articles:
1) Use attention-grabbing titles. Having a great title is the first step in writing a successful article because this is what generally gets the attention of a reader. If you make your title prominent and striking then people will pay more attention to it.
Also, you should place your main keyword as the first word in your title. This is great for the search engine rankings but it is more important to your viewers because this is the search term that they were looking for in the first place. Putting it at the beginning of your title makes it obvious that your article deals with the exact information they want.
2) Drive visitors to your squeeze page. The whole purpose of your article is to get people to your squeeze page and join your list. You do this by having a conspicuous call to action at the end of your article. It is here that you ask your reader to click on the link that you have provided to take them to your squeeze page to join your list.
Why would a visitor click on this link? Well, first of all, they have completely read your article and were very impressed and satisfied with its content as well as your expertise on the subject. They are already primed to receive more information. Now, you should offer them a free gift to click the link. This gift should be a short, ten to twelve page ebook related to the topic of your article. Now your visitor has a double reason to click your link.
3) Proofread your articles. When your article is published, it will be under your name. That means that you will be judged as to whether you really know what you are talking about in your article and, in fact, are an expert in your field.
Therefore, your article should be free of spelling and grammar errors and look appealing to the eye. Be very careful if you use a ghost writer for your articles - not all of them are careful the fine points of article writing. Nevertheless, it is still your responsibility to ensure that your article is free from error because your name is on it.
