Article Marketing Always Brings Quality Results For A Blog

If you are trying to make money from blogging or some other online venture there are certain things you must do if you are not to fail: you must get visitors and you must rank in the search engines. You can achieve both of these goals by paying for visitors at the search engines via pay per click or you can get visitors for free using article marketing.


The first thing you will need to do is research your article marketing topic. There are quite a few good keyword tools on the market to help you choose which keywords will bring you visitors but also you need to make sure there is minimum competition as well or you will not get very high in the search results. Your keywords need to be relevant to your site and be getting plenty of search queries but not lots results. You can read a more detailed post about keyword tools for a better understanding.

Once you have picked out your targeted phrases you will want to use it in your articles title, a couple of times in the first paragraph, once or twice in the body and once again at the end for optimum results.

Keep your article marketing real. In other words write it for humans, not the search engines. We can help our articles climb the search engine rankings but they won't do us any good if people read the first sentence, decide it's rubbish and hit the back button. Keep your articles easy to read and to the point. Use bullets as they get your point over better.

When you are done, read it a few times and make sure it is both grammatically correct and that you have your targeted phrases in the right places. Once you have done that, check it again, a few times. If it doesn't quite read correctly, rewrite the part and remember while you may be an expert on the subject, your reader is not.

Your final paragraph in your article is the most important {part-section} yet most who do article marketing miss this part completely. Your article gives the reader info that they have looked for but now you want them to get yet more info by visiting your own site. Be loud and clear about the benefits of clicking your link and visiting your website. Simply asking for the click will not cut it any more. Explain to them exactly why they should and what they can expect to find: a a more detailed article, a place where others interested in the topic hang out and chat etc.

Finally be particular where you offer the use of your articles and if you can rewrite the article each time you submit it somewhere new. Submit the first version to ezinearticles.com and wait for them to accept it before submitting it to any of the other article directories. This is because they are the most popular so get the most traffic but they will not articles that have already been submitted elsewhere.

Article marketing is still the best means of promoting a website without spending big bucks on PPC. Just 1 article every day will result in a hundred or so articles on perhaps thousands of blogs in just 3 months from now all with links aimed at your blog.
