Mastering Article Marketing To Build Your Small Business
Step 1
Article Marketing is often claimed to be one of the top methods for building a small business online . In itself that is a true statement but for the majority of online marketers it is far from the truth. Actually nothing works for most new marketers because they do not have a clue how to do it right. You can make any opportunity you start a successful small business idea if done right. Below are the tools I use, how I use them, and how I write articles for both traffic and the search engines.
There are many myths on the internet that make it seem like a huge daunting task trying to make money online. SEO for instance has thousands of how to articles and hundreds of SEO courses that you can purchase. The truth is far easier, SEO has no magic mysteries or long drawn out profiles that have to be accomplished. SEO is simply making your site as relevant as possible to the keywords you want to get listed for. If the content is relevant to your site and small business it will get ranked. The more relevant the higher ranking, it’s just that simple.
Writing a great article, the secret to a great article is easy, make it relevant to what people want to learn and make it friendly to the search engines. In other words, make it valuable to your reader. To find what people want to learn simply do a keyword search using Google’s Keyword Tool. You can quickly tell what people are looking for by the number of monthly searches. You can also see how stiff the competition is. When deciding on keywords for your article use only those that have a monthly search volume between 1000 – 2000 and ones with less competition.
Once you have the keywords you want to use you need to apply them in your article. A great format is to use the exact keyword term in your Title. If your keywords are “successful small business ideas” you would want that term in your title. Then simply break the term down into smaller phrases such as “small business, “successful business, business ideas” etc. and use the shorter terms throughout the article. Use 1 – 3 word phrases every paragraph or as much as every two paragraphs. Then use the exact phrase one last time in your last paragraph.
In writing your article you need to be careful not to look like some spammer who has simply stuffed an article full of keywords. Doing that can get your site punished by Google and other search engines and it will definitely turn people away from your site. Study what you plan to write about, find what people are looking for. Find a need and fill it and you will see the rewards for your efforts. Make your content sound intelligent, like you know what you are talking about. Your keywords should blend perfectly into your content and they should look like they belong there.
Do the above when writing articles and you will see the positive results. If you want to leverage your article writing and take it to the next level these are the two main tools I use because they work, SubmitYourArticle.Com and 1WayLinks.Net.
To some extent I agree, but I am sure there is more to it. I will be looking forward to further updates on this topic from other users. Also if I may add to this, Did you know that there is a automation software that does 1000 article postings, auto spinning, multiple account managment and that too in few mins. You can start tracing your links in minutes after posting. Its called Article Demon.
