A place for finding the Nuts and Bolts for Making Money Online with Affiliate Marketing Business Opportunity!

The next basic of article marketing is to create a short resource box that has links to your web site, copyright info, Unique selling Proposition, any special offers you want to give or any other relevant information that you want to share with the readers regarding the article you have written. Resource box is where you get paid to your knowledge that you share with the readers, so it is supposed to be rewarding. Regarding the links in your resource box, do not try to be too promotional. If you have more than one web site then it is always advised to give a link to the web site that is best linked to the topic. It is not advisable to list all the web sites and the list of the accomplishments that you own till date. Believe me, no one bothers about this fact. Also do not include the advertisement of the products in the resource box that are not relevant to the topic. The size of the resource box should not be more than one fifth of the size of the article.

The third basic of article marketing is to submit the articles to the directories and web site that are of high quality and those who have good traffic. It is always good to submit the articles in more than one directory. When you submit your article, make sure that your articles are according to the guidelines laid down by the publisher.

Hence article marketing is an easy tool that increases traffic to your web site. As you write good, content oriented articles, the traffic to your web site keeps on increasing.

How does article marketing work?

The first thing you need to do is to write an article about your niche. Once you are done, you need to find free article directories that accept articles from authors who want to promote themselves and their business.

Find a couple of those sites and take a habit to submit one article every day. It can be in the morning or the evening. Whatever time is better for you.

How will you gain traffic?

Traffic to your website will come via different sources. Most of them will come from the article directory itself. Others will land on your article via search engines like Google, Yahoo and MSN.

This will considerably increase the number of backlinks to your website, and your web pages will raise in the search engines. You will get direct traffic from the search engines.

And one of the best sources of traffic are ezine owners. Some of them will download your articles if they like them, and they may send one of them to their lists.

Internet marketing is big businessand growing daily.

According to internetworldstats.com, 69% of United States residents now have Internet access, with 17% being the worldwide average. Thats over a billion Internet users, and a reasonable estimate would be that close to half use the Internet for shopping.

It gets better. More Internet users are also acquiring broadband connections, which makes online shopping easier. Compounding those figures, online shoppers are spending more per purchase as companies improve their online offerings.

Men, generally considered unenthusiastic shoppers, have taken to Internet shopping; women like it for research and comparison purposes. And kids? Those too young to drive have found a way to get stuff from the right stores.

These trends should only continueperhaps at steeper rates than ever.

If youre an Internet marketer, you have a lot on your plate. You need to learn technical and creative as well as marketing skills. Many Internet marketers are technologically proficient, and often their technical skills carry over (adequately enough) into computer-aided design. Unfortunately, many Internet marketers mistakenly think that once they have an Internet presence, the work is done.

But a job that may be underestimated in importance is good, solid writing of the old-fashioned variety. Thats a bad thing, because it is words that send traffic to those websites. Whether it be pay-per-click ads, press releases, or concise, informative, interesting, syndicated articles, skillfully crafted words drive the entire sales process.

Thats where a professional article writer can make the difference between success and failure for an Internet marketer.

For best results, look for a writer with a love of writing, a broad portfolio, a top-notch command of the English language, extensive research experience, attention to detail, and basic understanding of Internet marketing. Insist upon guaranteed original-content articles using the keywords you provide and the keyword density you specify.

A boring, confusing, or heavily recycled private label article wont help you sell your products, because people wont finish reading and click the link to your site. They wont pass it along to other readers or post it on their own sites.

BBC NEWS breaks search engine sp*m news, while this story has been making the rounds of SEO/SEM forums and newsletters for the past couple of days, since Matt Cutts posted about it in his SEO blog on February 4th:

http://www.mattcutts.com/blog/ramping-up-on-international-webspam/

... at first there was little international press (and none in the US) on the issue, but the BBC story has started a landslide of news and commentary on search engine sp*m by major corporations. It is also likely to brand all SEO's universally as bad guy Black Hat SEO's and ignore the good guy White Hats. Legitimate techniques and resulting ranking improvements rarely gain the attention given the bad guys.

I've reported major Fortune 500 corporations for sp*mming through the Google sp*m reporting link a half dozen times over the past year and am happy to see actions being taken against the worst offenders.

http://www.google.com/contact/spamreport.html

BMW Germany targeting the term "Used Cars" on it's new car site using javascript redirects is a blatant abuse of doorway pages and cloaking for inappropriate search phrases.

Cutts shows screen captures of the BMW offense, but mentions only peripherally that Ricoh.de would be banned as well, then sends a direct message to a separate US automaker at the end of his sp*mming post, telling them that they'll be re-included following a 30 day ban for similar offenses they've apparently cleaned up from their European site.

Search engine sp*mming is certainly not limited to Europe, although one of my complaints to the Google sp*m reporting link is for a European company site, which 5 months after reporting, STILL ranks #1 for a highly competitive phrase in US results. They use different search engine sp*mming techniques employing invisible code full of links, H1 tags and keyword phrases which are intended for surfers with javascript turned off - the < noscript> tag. Search engines see this invisible text, while surfers don't as it is buried in the HTML code.

The home page of one site I reported for sp*mming is made up entirely of images and has no hope of ranking well for any search phrase from the home page due to complete lack of text, so they may feel justified in using < noscript> tags to rank for an admittedly appropriate search phrase, by using a technique recognized as search engine sp*mming. When any large corporation sees fit to use sp*mming techniques, it encourages EVERYONE to do the same, simply because they feel justified for whatever reason suits them, reasonable or not.

This lesser known technique, filling < noscript> tags with H1, tags, keyword phrase hypertext links, and invisible text within tags, is effective and is used by many sp*mmers. I believe that smaller offenders would be instantly banned if this were discovered in use on their site, even if they were using appropriate keyword phrases for their topic or site subject. The big boys should be penalized as well.

I'll feel better when ALL search engine sp*mming techniques are penalized equally, regardless of the technique used or terms targeted, or any rationalized justifications. When that happens universally, then sp*mmers will stop sp*mming the search engines. But not until then.

This BMW case has become high profile for a major offense and is likely to gain attention in hurriedly called meetings in boardrooms of major corporations, with webmasters and marketing departments in attendance. "Are we doing this!" CEO's will rage at befuddled webmasters or in-house SEO's. But until ALL methods of search sp*m are penalized publicly, those lesser offenses will continue at all levels - especially large companies with more to gain (when they get away with sp*mming) and to lose (when they get caught and exposed/banned).

Viral marketing is a methods of list building

Article writing is the best way to spread your links. It is free; and it helps add value to your Internet presence through the information you share in the articles. You write an article about 500 words and submit it to prominent article directories. You can reference your web url in your resource box attached with the article. The more directories you submit your articles to, the more back links you build.

Writing articles can be challenging for some people. If you want to hold your standards high and write your own articles, it could be time-consuming. Alternatively, you can hire ghost writers to do the job for you at a cost. $10 for a 300-500 word article when you commit in bulk (maybe 8-10 articles) is a decent price.

I personally like to write my own articles despite the fact that it is time-consuming. I like the fact that it is my voice and that I learn what I have to write about through the research and experimenting.

For Internet marketing newbies, the first block may be not knowing what to write about. When you are new, you do not feel like an authority in anything. How do I come up with an article when I do not know enough about anything? You may ask.

The answer is "Quite the contrary!" You have a lot more to write about when being the newbie than a veteran to some extent. Anything you are learning can be committed to paper. This is much like a school paper. You have to do some research, carry out the experiment, share the results (or sometimes not necessarily), and reach a conclusion.

Some areas where you may find plenty to write about are:

- how each of your affiliate programs works

- how you solved a problem in building your home biz

- new things you've learned and your thoughts on them

- your views and revelations in your area of interest

- resources that you have found that have worked well for you

- documenting you success experience with step by step instruction

Covering various topics in these areas may also gradually establish you as an authority in building your home biz online.

If the above suggested areas of topics are too vague for you, there is another way that is more specific. Visit Internet marketing related forums (e.g. Warriorforum). Pay attention to what questions people are asking. Make those questions your assigned topics to write about. Do the necessary research (if you do not already know the answer) and document your findings and conclusions. Since the same questions are asked over and over again by different people, you may get a chance to share your findings at a later opportunity, which will in turn build you a solid backlink (when you plant your web url in your signature).

Still another specific way to find what to write about is to read what other people have written. Then, try to rehash the same content in your own words adding your own spin to it. It is better that you add some new and/or unique input to the original content. This is not difficult to do as we are all so opinionated and find ourselves disagreeing with each other easily and often.

It is also advisable to keep a list of topics you want to write about. If you are like me, you will have days when you feel extremely inspired that you have something to say about everything. Those are usually the times when you only have enough time to do perhaps one article. Other times, you are dealt the writer's block where you just cannot think of anything to write about. Experience tells me that it is a smart habit to get into to note down all the things you want to comment/write about in your brief moments of inspiration. These notes, though it takes some discipline to keep, will prove to be little sparkles of intellect when your mind goes through the duller phase.
