An Effective Guide On How To Be Successful In Article Marketing

By Stephen Stich


A lot of people today are getting into article marketing, but they sometimes feel it is too difficult to be as successful as some of the many who are earning serious money from it. What you have to do is learn as much as you can about how to be successful with article marketing and apply that knowledge whenever possible. Here are some great hints.

Once you have a good number of subscribers, keep sending out content. This will keep people interested in what you are talking about, and you can mention once in a while your products. Try sending a newsletter once a month, so that you have enough information to include and still send out something on a regular basis.

Make sure to use backlinks. Create linkbacks to your own content on your site pages. Good examples of links would be having an archive of your articles or related links to other pages on your site. Be careful not to put too many of these links as they clutter your pages. More links on your pages mean more links will pop up on search engines.

Know your fee rates. Companies who work with affiliates charge different rates, sometimes even depending on the type of marketing you plan to do for them. Check out these fees, and make sure to pay attention to any fees that may be hidden "start-up" fees in the contract. Don't pay for something if you don't know know what it is.

When writing an article, don't overuse keywords. Incorporate them well into your article. Make sure they appear in the title, first paragraph and in the concluding paragraph. Don't use them in the body of the article as this gets repetitive.

Spinning articles is a very controversial topic, and the most knowledgeable article marketers know that it is one to avoid. Articles that are spun using software designed for that purpose are often ungrammatical or difficult to understand. In addition, you're not saying anything new with a spun article, which is worth far more than luring traffic to your website with duplicate content that is simply reformatted. Spinning articles can also land you in court if you inadvertently violate any copyright laws. It's much better to use your time writing creative articles than wasting it spinning useless ones.

Put a heavy focus on the quality of your articles. If you are writing too many, and you feel that your quality is suffering due to the quantity, slow down. There is no shame in actually taking the time to write a quality article, even if that means you won't be submitting as many as you are used to.

Keyword research tools are powerful aids in any article marketing campaign, but they should not be purchased. While keyword research tools and services are available for sale - most costing over 100 dollars - the experienced article writer does not need to spend money. The free tools available online (many from search engines themselves) are more than adequate for the article writer's needs.

Keep focusing on quality over the quantity of the articles you provide. Writing a million articles that are of mediocre quality will actually end up hurting you in the end. Publishers will being to recognize that your articles are not quality content and will stop adding your work to their sites.

Make your article titles hit upon readers' curiosity. Even if the information has been written 100 times before in other articles, a curiosity-stoking article will engage people and get them to read. If your goal is to get people to stop what they're doing and read your article, curiosity is the best way to make it happen.

Now you are ready to write those articles for the general reader, who will be younger and less informed than your scholarly readers. You have taken note of the kind of language used in the magazine to which you are going to submit your article--language that will interest the reader but not overwhelm them with specialized terminology.
