Article Marketing Power Tips

Everyone knows that the key to increasing traffic from the search engines rests in having lots of incoming links from relevant websites – preferably one way links. But how to get those precious one way links? Article Marketing is quite dynamic for doing just that.

The concept is by having your contents reproduced around the internet you’ll be able to increase your exposure and acquire, via the resource box, one-way incoming links which you don’t have to reciprocate as you would with link exchanges, which in theory should reward you with better search engine rankings.

Having a process in place makes organizing article submission so much easier and removes the confusion of where of what to do first. The following guide will take you through an article submission project step-by-step.

1. Start by having your article proofread and then add it to your website. Make sure you have a catchy title and a by-line that compels readers to take action.

2. Use a text to html tool to format your by-line so that your URL will appear live when your article is posted on a site.

3. List the information you’ll need for most submission sites including: title, author name, address, phone number, e-mail, website URL, topic, two line summary of the article, word count, line count, article URL, auto responder address (if available), document file names and 10-15 keywords.

4. Create a list of the type of submission sites appropriate for your article. I use EzineAnnouncer to collect and keep track of my submission list and I always write down the categories that are a match for my article. My latest submission qualified for more than 400 sites but your success depends upon your article topic.

5. Begin submitting to sites that accept articles by e-mail. Never send an attachment unless asked. Incorporate the entire article into the e-mail and include an option for the recipient to opt-out of your list.

6. Sign-up for all new submission sites on your list that require registration. Typically, you have to wait for a confirmation e-mail before submitting. You can move on to the next step while you wait.

7. Submit to all the article sites you have registered for and to all sites not needing registration but offering a submission form.

8. Check your e-mail, confirm your new accounts and visit those sites to add your article. Keep track of your login and password for each site.

9. Update your submission list by removing or correcting bounced e-mail addresses and URL errors. You will also need to add your new submission sites to your list.

10. Make a report to keep on your computer with the name and URL of the sites you used for submission. Update this list when you submit your older articles to newly discovered sites.

Article Marketing remains one of the best ways to establish yourself as an expert, lead generation, increase site traffic and improve search engine rank. If you haven’t tried it yet to promote your business, I encourage you to take the idea of marketing information online
