What is article marketing?
That’s a question many new Internet marketers ask themselves whenever they first visit an online marketing forum such as the Warrior Forum because quite frankly, it is a subject that comes up many, many times and for good reason.
Article marketing is one of the most powerful ways to drive targeted traffic to your website without costing you a single penny.
In fact, many of the top Internet marketers are slowly phasing away from using PPC techniques such as Adwords in favor of writing and submitting articles.
This system relies on writing high quality articles that are anywhere from 450 to 700 words in length based on any niche or topic the writer hopes to profit from through the traffic their article generates to their website.
These article marketers (as they are frequently called) then take the articles they have written and submit them to numerous article directories for free where the articles are generally reviewed by the directory staff and then published for syndication.
This publishing of the article allows other marketers the ability to take the content and use it on their own websites so long as the author’s resource box remains intact because that’s where the writer places their call to action or marketing message designed to send the reader of the content back to the original writer’s website with the intent to make a sale.
Sounds like an amazing traffic generating system and it truly is!
And it doesn't stop there because it is also a solid way to build backlinks to your websites, establish a brand name presence, position yourself as an authority expert in your niche topic and create more online income then you probably ever thought possible.
One of my current favorite techniques is to use article marketing to create higher rankings for my website content in order to drive traffic to it.
For example if I wanted to send more traffic to a page on my website called Loma Linda Scentsy Consultant or California Scentsy Consultant then I would start writing and submitting articles to directories with backlinks pointing to those webpages on my website.
The net result is more traffic and more sales from those webpages.
That's right, it is capable of doing all that and more without costing you a single thing other than your time in creating valuable article filled with high quality information.
Unfortunately many article marketers fail to generate any traffic from their written content and ultimately never make a single penny form their hard work and effort.
Why, does this happen, you ask?
Because those article marketers were never taught how to properly write and market their articles! As a result they waste their time and energy doing something that should work for them, but alas it never will.
