7 Article Marketing Tips

Article marketing is one of the best ways to market your website, products and services for free.Here are 7 useful article marketing tips you can start using today. These are the questions you need to ask your self.

1.Is it relevant?

You must make sure that whatever you are writing about is relevant.If your article is about marketing with hubpages, then be sure to deliver on that topic.No need to add irrelevant information to the article, it will just confuse the reader.

2.Is it timely?

Your article must be timely and most of all newsworthy, just like you see on TV or read in the newspaper.For good article ideas, sign up on a news list that gives you alerts on the topics you are interested about.For instance, go to Google and search for RSS feeds about the topic you are interested about and then sign up.It does not cost you anything.

3.Use sequals!

When it comes to articles, a good idea is writing the article in many parts.After you have written the first article there is new information available online that you can use for part number 2. Bloggers use this technique often to get people back to their site.

4.Go viral!

Allow other people to publish your article as long as nothing is changed and the authors resource box is intact.Article syndication is going to drive traffic to your site. When you write good quality content and submit your articles to EzineArticles.com people are going to post your articles on their sites.Every time this happens, you will get a new link pointing to your site.This grows over time, in a year you could have hundreds of links pointing to your site from just one article you have written.

5.Short and simple!

Do not bore the reader with too long articles.A good article length is 400 – 800 words.The article should be long enough so the reader understands the message you are trying to convey.

6.How many is needed?

How many articles do you need to write in order to increase traffic to your website? It all depends on your article title,because it has to catch the interest of the reader or they will never click the link to read more, and visit your website to buy your product.You can get things started with only two articles. Article titles like “how to….” or “7 great tips to…” work the best.

7.Re-use your articles!

If you have written several articles on the same topic, compile an ebook of them.This is a great freebie to give away when you are building your email list.
