Market Your Articles To Build Your Business

By Robert Strong


Marketing doesn't change much in a business sense. The idea is to seek out customers within your market and push them toward buying a product. This is easy to do with commercials and magazine ads, but it's a bit more difficult to do with online articles. If you're an online article marketer, you need to read what's in this article.

Choose a product you would like to promote before starting your article marketing. Find something that is currently doing very well. You can tell this by looking for products on an affiliate provider such as Clickbank. Once you choose a product, find at least 30 different keywords that you can write articles with.

When trying to market your articles, keep the titles and topics interesting. This will boost visitors to your site and help to create maximum exposure. Target interesting angles or points of view. Keep your articles punchy too. You will see that your target market notices your articles and looks to you in the future as their "go to" source.

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.

Introductions and conclusions are very important in an article. You want to introduce a reader to the content below in a general way, making the reader feel as if any subject within will relate to them. And then you want to close by briefly summarizing what the article touched on and adding your last call to action.

Use plugins for your facebook page to automate pulling your blog feed into your page. A lot of people don't want to leave facebook unless they are given a reason to. Just posting a link to an article may not be enough of an enticement for them to click. Having your content go to facebook will help you develop your readership, plus it makes it even easier for your friends to share content.

Focus on formatting your articles so readers can digest them more easily. Break up big blocks of text into smaller bite-size paragraphs. Use lists or bullet points if possible, and add subtitles in bold to describe each paragraph. Readers want to be able to skim information quickly, and if that is difficult, they will just move on.

Don't use article spinners. You are submitting articles for people to read, and you should have people write them. There is no machinery in existence that can write prose in a way that is not obviously artificial. Be professional and have respect for your prospective customers by hiring human beings to rephrase your articles. By hiring good writers, you will get fresh viewpoints and unique content that you could not get from any kind of software.

Do your keyword research. If you have already written an article, but aren't sure what to title it, look for commonly searched keywords that will fit the article. Do not use keywords that don't match up. No one likes to be looking for fishing gear and click on an article about the most recent music videos.

Practice is a very good way for one to develop their writing skills related to article marketing. By writing practice articles that will not actually be produced but use as a learning tool, one can try out different styles and writing formulas to get a feel for them before anyone will see.

Remember that your articles need to be action-oriented as you're writing them. Even if you're working on telling a story or are praising a product's effectiveness, the idea is ultimately to provide people with a clear direction to visit a site or location of your choosing. Call people to action if you want them to take action.

Not every business is the same, but that doesn't mean article marketing can't help you reach traffic and drive customers to your site. No matter what you're selling, you will be able to drive traffic and push sales, as long as you're marketing correctly. Listen to the advice offered in this article and make sure you put it into action.
