subject: The True Power Of Article Marketing [print this page] In this article I'm going to talk about how powerful article marketing can be if you do it effectively!
When it comes to using articles you need to ask yourself specifically what do you want to achieve from writing an article?
Do you want it to rank in the search engines and get loads of traffic, or do you simple want it to get views from directories and online publishers who may be interested in using your article?
Often articles can be used to easily dominate Google for long tail keywords, so if you write an article reviewing a product or a service it'll usually pop up at the top of Google!
This is an effective way of driving traffic, but keyword research takes time, so surely the guru's who are driving 100,000 visitors per month with articles don't spend every day and night doing keyword research do they?
The answer is no, and in fact this is where the power of leverage comes into play! You see articles do receive traffic directory from the directories themselves and also from other sources such as social bookmarking articles and when publishers pick up your article and distribute it to their newsletter or place it on a blog of their own!
If you write 1 article per day for 30 days you will have 30 articles, and if you post these articles out to 5 directories then you'll have 150 live articles which you should receive some traffic for! Now here's the interesting part...
Most people stop after about 5 articles because they aren't receiving much traffic from them and they get fed up!? Well... the truth is that the super affiliates online are much smarter and they realize that they won't get a lot of traffic from 30 articles per month, however they also know that they will get a lot of traffic from 300 or 3000 articles per month!
How do you do this though?
Well you either leverage your efforts using software, or you simply outsource article writing! Super affiliates know that using software or outsourcing is necessary in order to grow their business to new heights and really make that massive income!
The truth is that making money online is a skill that anyone can learn, just like riding a bike or driving a car!
