I'm Giving Back To the Warrior Forum (Step by Step Guide)
Now I know that I have only been a member here for two days (have been lurking around and reading for a little over two weeks) but I have pretty much lived here for the last two day's ha ha
so your probably thinking what can he possibly be giving back to us and why
Well first I am going to answer the why.
Earlier today I read a post by Josh Anderson about how it's enough with the 1 liner posters to get your post count up. Well I know already that I am going to be a member of this forum for a long time and I don't want to be known as one of these 1 liner posters that is why I am making this post. Second is Josh Anderson Also said this "And if you happen to be a "one liner poster" who is only posting to get your count up... and you have started to realize the value of this forum and want to stick around for a while... just become a real contributor." Well I don't consider my self a 1 line poster because I am not posting just to get my posts up but I do realize the true value of this forum therefore I would like to stick around and become a real contributor!
So now I know my name is NewbieImer but I have been around for a little over 2 weeks just lurking until yesterday and I have learned a great deal of info some of it from Other websites, some from free posts, and a big chunk from a free ebook I read yesterday which is in my siggy if you would like to take a look. Most of what I learned yesterday from the free ebook and in the forum so far is about bum and article marketing(there the same thing I think).
Ok here is what I have learned hope this helps at least one person
Step 1: Finding a Niche
The way that I pick my niche or topic is to find a Topic that has a Problem associated with it that a lot of people have. Let me give you an example Say we choose golf a problem a lot of people have would be that they can't get there golf drive's to go strait down the fairway. This is a niche with a problem and people are always looking to for answers to there problems and they like to read articles with solutions to there problems. This is one of the best ways I think to find a topic/niche that will attract people to your articles and then eventually to your products.
Step 2: Writing Articles and Not Giving Up
I know that writing articles can be very overwhelming you don't know where or how to start at the begging this was one of my biggest problems. What you need to do is write a outline that will break what your trying to write into small pieces it will make the article writing process much easier. Usually I start the top of the page off with my main keyword or keyword phrase then from there I branch off with 3-4 questions related to the keyword or keyword phrase then I put the answer's to those 3-4 questions and make those answers into my body paragraphs.
Example if my niche is golf
Question 1: How to get the perfect Drive swing
Question 2: How to get the perfect Iron Swing
Question 3: How to make all of your putts
Question 4: ....
Also let me add that on top of just answering a question it is very good to tell the reader how they can avoid this problem again in the future.
Step 3: Choosing a Killer Title
Having a killer title or having a boring title can make all the difference in the world If you a bum or Article Marketer. I think that I could argue it is the most important part of your article your title decides if your article is going read and published by newsletters or sitting on the Article Directory "Shelf" collecting Dust. Your Title should grab the readers attention and make them want to know more about your Topic/niche. In the 3-5 seconds it takes the reader to read your Title and summery you have to grab there attention that's the only chance your going to get if your title fails you fail its as simple as that.
I have to give credit to the Warrior Jeffery Louis I read a thread yesterday and it had a very good point. "In order to get people to click your resource box you need to get them to read your article. That means they are going to need to read your title and click on it"
Also Again I am going to need to give Credit to Jeffery Louis here are some great example titles:
Make sure to place your keyword in these titles if you do use them
1. "A Tip You Can't Live Without"
2. "To Get You Passed The Hard Times"
3. "To Understand (Your Keyword) Better Then Ever Before"
4. "5 Tips To Get You On Your Feet"
5. "Your Not Getting The Most Out Of It"
Step 4: The Opening Paragraph
The opening paragraph must introduce the reader to the opening paragraph but also must keep the reader reading! Make sure you let the reader know how your are going to help him/her introduce some of the questions about the keyword that you are going to answer. Think of your opening paragraph of a 10 second commercial for the rest of the article you have to grab there attention and keep them interested.
Step 5: Content
Sub Step 1: Use Examples to make your point
Give your reader examples of how the solution that you provide them with in the article will help them. Tell them all of the benefits give them real life solutions people like to be able to relate what your talking about to them selves this will make them a lot more interested.
Sub Step 2: Reassure your reader
Tell the reader that if they follow your advice that not only will it solver there problem now but let them know that it will never happen again. Again use a real life experience using yourself let them know why you needed this solution and how you used it to fix your problem.
Sub step 3: Establishing your credibility
Establishing your credibility with the reader is very important when you write your articles. Tell the reader why they should listen to you. Tell them that you have had this problem and tell them the benefits that the solution gave you. If you have a certain area of expertise that relates to this niche tell the reader this will make you a credible source for information.
Step 6: The Resource Box
The resource box is the whole reason we write and submit articles. Yes its nice that we are providing all of this free information to the world but even better we get to make a profit while doing so. Your resource box is your key to success if they look inside of your resource box and like what they find your successful if not then you have to wait for the next reader to come along. Also Make sure not just to put a link to you website describe where they are going to go when they click the link this will make them more interested.
Step 7: The Finally
Now that you have finished writing your articles you can proof read them one last time and submit them to all of those great article directories. I could list 25-50 article directories right now but my fingers are getting tired and that's easy information to find. But there is one article directory I want to make a shout out to (if this is allowed) it is
Website-Articles.net Exclusive Article Submission Platform
It is a article directory by a fellow warrior forum member Allen Graves I haven't actually tried this article directory or any other ones out there besides ezineartiles but from what I have read Here it walks the walk
Also I would like to say a final thank you to one member Cires123 for writing such a wonderful free report. (in my sig newbies check it out)
Maybe one day I will be able to change my name from NewbieImer to ExpertImer haha
Thanks for reading,
John
