Promote Your Service With Article Marketing - A "how To" Guide

By Ray Bradbury


Launching a new business can be quite the scary venture. Launching a business online in particular is even more dangerous. That's because of the little capital involved. People feel that since it's not quite as risky as other ventures, they can just go wild. Well, learn what you're missing about things like article marketing below.

Improve your site's search ranking by including more internal links. When you add new content to the page, link back to previous content. For instance, if you have a blog about recipes and are posting an Italian pasta dish, link back to a previous recipe you wrote about lasagna. When you do this, you automatically boost internal traffic within your site, which can raise your ranking.

To start article marketing, write an original article for your website, making sure it is optimized for your primary keywords and 400-500 words in length. You will want this to be a high quality, well written article as it will be the foundation for more articles to follow. Submit the article to all the major RSS feeds. Once the article is published on your website, ping your website's RSS feed.

Rewrite your original article, or hire someone to do it for you. This article should be totally unique, high-quality, and optimized for your keyword. Be sure to write a compelling author's resource box that contains two backlinks to your site, one pointed to your main domain, and one to the original article. Submit the rewrite to EzineArticles.com. Once your article is published there, you will have your own author's RSS feed. Each article that is approved on Ezine will ping your author's feed.

Become an "expert". Research and write about topics that are related to each other to become the go-to person for a specific subject. Your audience will learn to trust your advice, and continue returning to your articles. They are also more likely to buy products recommended by someone they consider to be well-versed.

In every article you write, add at least one bit of information that a reader could immediately use. Whether mentioning a current deal or teaching them a quick computer fix, having something immediately helps to fix the consumer desire for instant gratification. If you do this for each article, readers are sure to return.

Keep your reader interested from the beginning of your article, until the end. Use real life stories when possible and try to "paint a picture". Interesting articles will keep your readers engaged and have them coming back for more. They are also more likely to view you as an authority on your chosen subject matter.

The content you write forms the core of your article marketing effort. Your articles have considerable value. If you run across your articles posted without your consent and without links to your website, rectify the situation. Try to use a reasonable approach with content thieves. If you convince them to use a properly-attributed and linked version of your article instead, you can turn your loss into a benefit.

Be sure your articles actually deliver a helpful message.` If you can help someone find information they were searching for, they are more likely to try to find more articles that you have written.

Are you tired of waiting for answers to your queries and discouraged by rejection letters? Consider bundling those articles into a book and self-publishing on the internet. Self-publishing has recently made great strides. It can be reasonably priced, you can get your book listed on internet marketplaces, and it no longer bears the onus which the old "vanity presses" once did.
