When most people think of Article Marketing, what comes to mind is usually how to write the article rather then how to market it. There are some tips to market effectively your articles.
By submitting your articles to article directories, article announcement lists, and ezine publishers, you can increase traffic and profits. A win-win combination.
First, you establish yourself as an expert in your field. Readers are more likely to listen to you if they feel you know what you are talking about.
Second, by attaching a resource box to your article, you are giving the reader a link to your website. If the reader is impressed with your knowledge, they will probable click on your link to see what it is that you are offering.
Third, you increase your search engine page rank by providing a non-reciprocal link to your website. Search engines seem to give extra weight to non-reciprocal links in their page rankings.
But many marketers are not comfortable writing their own articles. They just do not understand how to put their thoughts into words. Or worse yet, they do not have any thoughts about.
That is why private label articles are in such high demand these days. There are several of these services available and more seem to be popping up every day.
There is a basic problem. Depending on how these articles are used, the results can be good, bad, or downright unsightly.
The Bad: A everyday mistake made by marketers using private label articles is getting lazy. They merely copy and paste the article and submit it, as is, with no personalization.
At the very least, you should change the title. Most article directories require that your article be approved before they are posted. But do you actually think they read every article that comes in? Not likely.
They get dozens, even hundreds of submissions every day, so it’s unlikely that your article will really be read.
But most directory software will automatically search their database for duplicate titles. If the title of your article matches one in their database, yours will be rejected.
So do yourself a favor and at the very least, change the title. It might also be a good idea to change the wording in the first paragraph.
The common mistake: Many marketers load so many links in their article that it becomes one long ad. This will not only get you rejected, but ultimately banned if you do it frequently enough.
The Good: As stated previously, private label articles, when used correctly, can give the non-writer a big superiority over other marketers. They can increase your traffic, sales, and opt in subscribers. That is good.
This is the reason why you must invest time and effort to market your articles successfuly.
