One of today's most popular trends in website traffic promotion
is Article Marketing. Go to Google and do searches under "submit
your article" or free content to republish" and
you will find hundreds of sites where you can submit your
articles. These sites are willing to post your article so
they have fresh content on their sites on an ongoing basis.
You benefit by receiving incoming links to your website.
You also add a "Resource Box" at the end of your
article, promoting your business or product. They benefit,
as their website grows with good content in a variety of different
categories. It is a win-win situation.
However, posting articles can become very time consuming.
There are also many factors to consider in where and how to
submit your article.
Some of these factors are:
- How to find the best sites to post your article, where
they will receive the most exposure. You want to make sure
that sites that offer your article have the correct terms
of reprint rights policies.
- What type of Google Page Rank the article site has, how
fast they are growing, and how well the database is maintained
and kept fresh. The rank is important because your page
rank will eventually be calculated by the rate of the website
that has inbound links to your website.
- Don't just rely on Google Ratings, though. New directories
are being created daily and growing quickly. Some of these
new directories will be rising stars, and you can benefit
from posting your articles in new directories as well. Google
and other search engines are always looking for fresh, new
content.
- If you submit articles regularly, article website content
owners are likely to consider special joint venture promotions
with you. They are most likely to want to reward frequent
publishers. This might include additional free promotion
for your article.
- Posting articles needs to be thought out so that you get
your article in the appropriate category. You also want
to check reputation and history of a content directory,
to make sure you are putting your article in a place that
will improve your reputation, and not damage it.
- By getting your article published in a highly admired
content site, your article will be published in more ezines
and on more website's. This means more traffic for your
resource box link. There are several pieces of software
that automate the process, and there are also places that
will do this service for you.
Some of this software is time consuming to learn, and very
expensive to purchase.
Many content sites have banned particular automated software
submissions because of inaccuracies and major problems with
their experience using the software.
Many content websites will accept html there are also many
that totally ban it. Automatic software has been known to
cause major errors with html error coding issues, causing
major headaches for list owners and content site editors.
When you consider some of the submission options in the marketplace,
it makes sense to just do it yourself.By posting each article
to each content site you can specify your selected category,
which gives you total control over the outcome and accuracy that you desire.
Doing it yourself can be a full time job, though. Keeping
a fresh and accurate database of the best sites to submit
articles is time consuming, but also important.
Your target outcome should include the choice of categories
and the ability to modify code in your resource links to each
specific submission. You want to make sure that your article
is placed in the most accurate way.
If you have gone the "do it myself" way, you are
probably already overwhelmed by the time consuming tedious
task it can be.
There is another way to accomplish this time consuming task.
You can hire a service to send your articles to several sites,
all customized to that directory's specific categories and
submission guidelines.
It is a known fact by successful online marketersthat writing
article to promote traffic to your website is a very successful
avenue to pursue.
Remember that accuracy in how your article looks to the potential
readers and publishers that view it, should be your number
1 priority.
