Writing articles to promote your website is, hands-down,
one of the best ways to get targeted traffic to your website.
The best part is that this strategy builds itself
over long-term.
One article you write today will continue to get you business
for years and years!
Now, most people know that they need to submit that article
to directories (or if you did not, you know it now). However,
too many marketers miss the biggest golden nugget of them
all!
Ezine publishers!
Others who publish newsletters NEED your content and are
looking for it. They are looking for good material for their
readers. This means that your article could get featured in
a huge newsletter! Imagine having a newsletter of 50,000 subscribers
or even more feature your article…
Can you imagine the kind of traffic that would bring you!
Besides the traffic generation, here are 6 critical reasons
you need to start submitting to Ezines immediately if you
really want to build your internet business.
- You'll brand your web site, business and yourself by submitting
articles to E-zines. This is done through the resource box
that is added at the end of your article - this resource
box allows you to have a biography of yourself and a link
back to your website.
- You will become known as an expert on the topics you
write about. This will give you and your business extra
credibility which will help you compete against your competition.
The more credibility you get, the more joint ventures and affiliates you can recruit to sell your products.
- Your article might also be placed on the publisher's
home page. If they publish each issue on their home page
this will give you some extra exposure. This will also help
other websites find your article to re-publish.
- You might get extra exposure if the e-zine publisher
archives their e-zine on their site. People might want to
read the back issues before they make the decision to subscribe.
This can be great if their website is search engine optimized
and your article starts to come up for good keywords!
- It is possible that other e-zine publishers will publish
your articles in their free e-books. Once your article is
known as a re-printable article, it can start ending up
everywhere!
- Are you thinking about launching a second facet to your
business of consulting? Consulting is a great way to add
extra income to your online ventures. When you have your
articles being spread around the internet, your credibility
is huge and getting great consulting clients is easy.
These are all the benefits just from submitting articles
to publishers. If you can combine that strategy with submitting
your articles to article directories as well, then your articles will go much further!
The benefit of submitting to directories is that the publishers
come find YOU. You don't even have to beg them or “bother”
them to publish your article.
Most publishers are actively looking for material for their
newsletter, when they like what you write - most will contact
you to let you know that they are about to publish your article.
This is the best time to reply to them and send them more
of the previous articles you have written. It is not unlikely
at all to have the same publisher feature you as an author multiple times a month!
So, if you have not started using articles yet - get to it!
They are one of the best ways to build short-term AND long-term
traffic to your websites.
