NOTE:
Not only can you write an
article and have hundreds of
webmasters from all across the
Internet use your article for
content on their website, but
you can also use other author's
articles on your own website as
well.
Remember, search engines love
content! So when
you're just starting out
building a new website, you'll
need to have quick content.
One of the best sources for
quick, fresh, quality content
for your website is by using
other authors articles on your
site.
For example:
Let's assume we need some
content for our website. We
could start writing some
articles that would pertain to
our "niche" and add them to our
website as we progress along.
But the problem is time!
How many "QUALITY" articles can
we write in a week? It
takes some time and effort to
product a quality, informative
and entertaining article.
And time is something we're a
bit short on when just setting
up a new site. We want to get
our website riddled with high
quality content ASAP!
So what do we do?
We browse a few article banks
and grab some free articles
written by other authors and add
those articles we find
interesting to our website.
The important thing to remember
is that we only want "Top Shelf"
quality, laser-targeted articles
that will fit perfectly into our
niche' website.
The only requirement is that we include the
author's
resource box in the article.
No problemo! We'll
gladly credit the author of the
article for their work.
They'll, in turn, receive some
quality links from our website
and we've just grabbed INSTANT
Content for our site as well.
Sounds like a lucrative trade...
wouldn't you agree?
Extremely POWERFUL Stuff
Here Kids!
And what's even more powerful is
the fact that once we begin
writing our own articles and
submitting them out into the
article banks and directories,
we'll reap the same rewards from
other webmasters looking to add
content to their websites.
Perhaps they'll use a few of our
articles...
It's a win-win situation for
everyone involved!
From the webmasters point of
view:
-
They receive quality,
informative content for their
website
-
Their website will increase in
the search engine rankings
(search engines love sites with
a lot of fresh, updated content
on a regular basis).
-
Their site will be of greater
benefit to it's customers and
visitors because of the quality
of information it will provide.
-
They'll receive more "repeat
traffic" from the continuously
updated, fresh, entertaining
content they can add regularly.
-
More and more webmasters will
refer traffic to their website
because it becomes a valuable
resource on the web -- and more
traffic ultimately leads to more
sales.
-
This will increase their "Link
Popularity" and ultimately
increase their search engine
rankings and traffic as well.
From the authors point of
view:
They receive hundreds (even
thousands) of links from related
websites through the articles
being published on other
websites with similar topics.
They'll gain credibility and
recognition in their niche' as a
respected author and expert in
their field.
They'll likely open up new doors
of opportunity -- such as ezine
publishers and alike who may
want to reprint their articles
in one of their monthly ezines
or similar websites who may want
to trade links for increased traffic.
-
More affiliate promotions and
joint venture opportunities.
-
More overall exposure for their
website, products and services.
-
Increased opportunity to build
their mailing list, newsletter
subscription or opt-in offers.
Etc., etc., etc...
And that's just a few of the
countless opportunities that can
arise from writing your own
articles and content.
Right now, let
me explain more about this "stealth"
marketing tactic by giving you
just one quick example...
Let's say I've written an
article to promote traffic back
to my website "Cooking On A
Budget" and I'm planning to
submit the article to dozens
(maybe hundreds) of article
directories. The title of
my article might read something
like this:
"Discover "Grandma
Lucia's" Traditional Pasta
Recipe...
Spaghetti And Meatballs --
Still Being Served Daily In
Her Sicilian Pasta House --
Prepared In Under 20 Minutes
For Less Than $4 Bucks A
Serving-- Deliciouso!"
Now, I've written a brilliant
article full of benefits to the
reader. At the closing of
my article (as we discussed),
I've left the reader wanting
more information about the
subject (REMEMBER - Informative
but incomplete... leaving the
reader wanting more).
And also... At the end of my
"brilliant and entertaining"
article, I've also added my
resource box plugging my website
and free e-course like the
resource box below:

I would now do two things.
First, I would use the services
of
Article Marketers to submit my
article all across the Internet
for FREE:
http://www.articlemarketer.com
In my opinion, they are one of
the best article submission
services available on the web.
Check them out and see for
yourself...
Ezine Publishers:
In addition to using Article
Marketer, I would then locate
several targeted ezines focused
on my "Niche" (cooking) and
send an email to the publisher
of the ezine informing him or
her that I have a great article
that I feel would be of great
benefit to their readers.
Ezine publishers are constantly
looking for quality and
entertaining content to add to
their ezines and our article
just might "wet their whistle"
this time.
Don't get me
wrong, it can be a difficult
task (especially those ezines
that are well established and
have very large circulations)
but it's not impossible -- and
all it takes is an email to the
publisher. The worst thing
that can happen is they say no
or simply don't respond back to
us with any interest...
The best scenario...
Our article is accepted by an
ezine publisher because of it's
quality, informative,
entertaining content and we now
have the potential for tens of
thousands of visitors to our
website -- FREE!
Then, all you want to do is
capture the email address of
each and every visitor who
arrives at your website!
A simple, yet powerful way to
generate additional sales!
