Autosubmit Your Articles: Article Marketing Through Article Marketing Software

Using an article submitter to submit your articles across various article directories is an excellent way to get traffic and back links to your site. Writing you article is not enough,if you want to make money and get popularity. You have to market them well enough by submitting your articles to various article directories. It can take at least 5 minutes to manually submit one article to one article directory. So if you have to send to 10 article directories, it can take 50 minutes to one hour or more. Multiply 50×30=1500minutes, which means you are throwing _hours every month in just woefully marketing the articles, when it can be done a lot sooner. You can imagine how many articles, you can write in that given strech of time. The reason is because all article directories are structured differently which results in a lot of time rendered waste. For instead, the login screen of ezinearticles is on the left, the one on article alley is on the extreme right. Also suppose you have to write an article on dating, you will find a category “relationship” in one article directory while in the other, it will be written as ‘society: dating”

In the one hour(that also you are fast at your work) that you do to send one article to various article directories, you can make use of that precious one hour to write more three articles or so. There are lot many automatic article submitters to help submit your articles in one shot to article directories, but most of them are useless. Some hang at odd times, some are sent to wrong categories while some send article to irrelevant article directories. Have you heard about the Pareto Principle. It is one of the biggest principles, I ever believe in and why not, it is a number one success princple in all walks of life. 80 percent of results come from top 20 percent of work or efforts. Applying to article marketing, it means instead of sending articles to each and every article directory, it is better to submit your article to the top 20 percent of article directories, and you will get 80 percent of results. There is a popular article submitter which submits articles only to popular article directories like ezinearticles, goarticles, articealley, articleset,ideamarketers, searchwarp, articledashboard etc.

Article Marketing Seo Tricks To Get Your Articles Seen Within The First 10 Results On Google

If you want to get your articles within the top 10 results on Google or other search engines, listen up, because these tips are POWERFUL for SEO.

1) Put the keywords your audience is looking for within the title of your article. For example, if you sell golf carts, then you could use “How to Find the Perfect Golf Cart” or “Golf Carts – Which Ones Are the Best?”

Google loves titles and headlines. It’s one of the first things their algorithms look at when they spider your website or article repositories like EzineArticles. The spiders put huge emphasis on the title of your articles, so make sure you pick the keywords for it very carefully.

2) Put the keywords you used in the title in the first couple of sentences of your article. Let’s take the golf cart example again. You could write something like “Looking for the perfect golf cart? Read this article to see which golf carts you may want to look at.”

Google also loves the first part of your article. Consider that this part of the listing typically shows up in the “description” part of Google’s results (if you don’t put a special meta-description for the article). When you match up the title and the first few sentences of an article, Google judges your article to be an aesthetic (relevant) match for it’s users.

3) Make sure your article is about the title you are using. Again with the golf example (I don’t like golf, nor do I play it, I don’t know why I picked this…:-) ) – if you are writing about golf carts, don’t make your article about the best golf swing. This will mislead your readers and Google could penalize you.

4) Always, always, always use keywords if the option is available. You may be uploading your own articles to WordPress or your own site, or you may be uploading them to some article directories that allow you to enter keywords within a submission field. MAKE SURE you include relevant keywords within these fields or the meta-keywords option. Google puts high priority on this function. Do not ignore this.

5) Most people don’t know this next tip – name your pictures and files with the keywords with which you want to optimize your articles. Example: if you have a picture of a golf cart, populate it’s “properties” in an HTML editing program with relevant keywords – golf, cart, best golf carts, etc. Google LOVES this.

It also has an aesthetic effect. Have you ever hovered over a picture and words appear over it? That’s what this effect does. It’s a bit more technical, so if you don’t know how to do this, learn how or have a webmaster do it for you.

We will continue with more highly potent SEO strategies for getting your articles within the top 10 spots on Google in future articles.

What is Bum Marketing and Does Bum Marketing Really Work?

Bum Marketing is a phrase coined by Travis Sago and is the concept of selling products on the Internet without a website, experience or out of pocket expense…and yes, Bum marketing still works!

You could say the backbone of Bum Marketing is actually using articles to drive traffic to a free website you have created with Squidoo, Hub Pages or a blog where the reader is encouraged to make a purchase thru your affiliate link and you receive a commission.

There are easier ways to drive traffic to your site other than article marketing but most of these methods require the risk of capital…something a lot of “Bum” do not have.

When you write an article and submit them to online article directories you get traffic in a couple of different ways.

The first way is from the directory itself. People do come to article sites to read articles about specific things and they can find your article there to read.  Also, those folks with newsletters and websites or blogs that need content can take your article from the site to use on their own sites so long as they keep your links active and give you credit as the author.

The third way you drive traffic is by getting your article indexed and ranked highly by the search engines.  Most article directories you submit to will naturally have a higher page rank than your site and are therefore more relevant in the eyes of the search engines.

By simply having an article published on one of these online article directories, your article is given immediate relevance and page rank and can be shown on page one or two of the search results…this is totally cool when it happens and is by far the best way to get free traffic.

So, write articles and submit them to the top article directories and you should be driving traffic to your site in no time!

Yes, Bum Marketing still works and you should definitely ive it a try if you do not have a lot of money to buy traffic…and there is no better feeling in the world than lots of FREE traffic from your Bum Marketing efforts.

Wouldn’t you like to know the secret to making money from home so you can pay your bills, take a much needed vacation or quit your day job?  Of course you would!

The Article Marketing Handbook – Will it Help Article Marketers?

This review is my personal opinion of ‘The Article Marketing Handbook’ I’ll tell you:

1) What it’s about
2} Did I learn anything?
3} Is it worth the asking price?

I’ve read a lot of articles, ebooks and forum posts about article marketing and have found that the information and advice offered can be conflicting and confusing to new article marketers. As an article marketer I have studied the results from my own campaigns and come to my own conclusions. As an article directory owner I can see from studying the site stats month after month which articles are working for the authors. I can also see from Google searches which articles have been found on my site and republished on blogs or websites.

With the double insight of article marketer and directory owner it can be frustrating to see articles being submitted that you know will not be effective for the authors. On the other hand you learn to recognise articles that are going to do well for the authors and your directory.

With this in mind I was curious to read ‘The Article Marketing Handbook’ written by Allen Graves – an experienced article directory owner and article marketer. I’ve come across Allen in forums and have to admit that we don’t always agree, but it is plain to see that Allen cares about article marketing. Because Allen has been involved with article marketing longer than I have I hoped that I would learn something from his handbook. I also felt that as he had the same opportunity of double insight as I have albeit for longer that ‘The Article Marketing Handbook’ should be as good as if not better than anything that I have previously read. My expectations were high so lets see if the handbook lived up to them.

The Content

At first I was impatient to get to the ‘meat’ of the ebook and wasn’t happy with the long introduction and theorising in the first couple of chapters, but then I saw that Allen was expressing why it is important to get your article marketing campaign right. It isn’t just information – it’s plain common sense that every article marketer should consider before embarking on a marketing campaign and worth reading.

Allen then guides you through selecting your niche, ways of discovering what information your readers are searching for and spending money on and how to find the best keywords. All useful information and if used correctly should help you to write more effective articles.

You learn why you should use pen names and how to select them. How to write titles that grab a reader’s attention while appealing to search engines. How to best summarise your articles and how to format the article body to capture the reader’s attention and keep them reading. Some tips are also included on how to write your author resource box to gain higher click throughs to your website.

Did I learn Anything?

Yes I did. I was particularly interested in a chapter explaining how to find the best places to submit your articles to and why. Also how to get more click throughs by promoting your articles after your submissions have been accepted. Both ideas are so obvious that I wondered why I hadn’t thought of them.

There are several more article marketing tricks that I have noticed used by authors who submit to my directories and hadn’t really thought about. To find out if they work I checked my site stats and sure enough those articles were getting more than the average hits. That could be a coincidence or those tricks could be working for the authors and my directories.

What I Think

There is a whole lot more information but now I’m going to tell you what I think about ‘The Article Marketing Handbook’. The ebook is well written and in a no BS style that I personally like. For anybody familiar with article or Internet marketing it’s easy to understand, but those new to the field may struggle without more basic information about for instance the importance of keywords and phrases. But, that and other basic information can be readily found with an Internet search.

Is It Worth The $47 Asking Price?

For most ebooks I would say absolutely not. That is because there are thousands of ebooks available on the Internet free or at incredibly low prices and that muddies the water on perceived value. The Article Marketing Handbook is different in that it provides a lot of information and advice that I haven’t seen before in any article, forum or ebook. Information and advice that I know from experience is correct even if I hadn’t thought about some of it before reading the handbook.

The Article Marketing Handbook is by far the best guide I have read on the subject of article marketing, so I wasn’t disappointed. As Allen will be providing updates as the market changes I would consider the one off $47 payment to be a good investment for ongoing success in the article marketing field.

Paid Article Marketing รข?? Why Is Massive Article Submission One Of The Most Popular article marketing strategies?

Paid article marketing is actively used by many internet marketing gurus on a regular basis. Why? –Because they are so busy with creating and promotion new products and services that they are not able to spend time for massive article submission on a regular basis. The problem is that when there is delay in submission your competitors can easily beat you within a few days or weeks in certain niche. So let’s talk below about massive article submission more deeply.

Why Is Massive Article Submission One Of The Most Popular Article Marketing Strategies? 

Here are top 2 reasons why massive article distribution is the major part of paid article marketing: 

1.    Paid article submission saves you time and helps to gain hundreds of quality backlinks within 24-48 hours.  

Massive submission of articles to 100 or more article marketing directories is quite affordable for every marketer. But when you think about the value you get for the cheap and quality service then you realize such kind of paid article marketing saves your time for other important projects and helps you to easily get hundreds of backlinks overnight. 

2.    Massive distribution can increase your sales overnight. 

Just imagine what if you affiliate product site would have gained 100 high quality backlinks from various higher pagerank article directories? Of course, you would likely make one or more sales overnight. 

Conclusion: 

You can use paid article marketing service either on forums like DP (here you will find cheap and quality service) or on special sites which offer professional article submission, or as a cheaper option – Isnare article directory that distributes 5 articles to thousands sites for only $10.

article marketing tips

Article Marketing Tip – Your Headline Stinks!

This is the first article marketing tip of three. If you want to beat the competition and bank the big bucks from writing articles you need to look at three areas: headline, body and resource box (or call-to-action).

So let’s get going with your article headline – which if you look around at the competition, usually stinks!

What’s the purpose of your article headline? To get someone to read the article of course. So you need to throw out a hook there with some nice juicy bait on it that someone’s going to bite on. Your article will not usually appear on its own. It’ll be with lots of other articles or it’ll be in a list of search engine results. Folks will have lots of choice, why click yours?

You only get one chance to make a first impression. You have seconds to grab those eyeballs or click, they’re gone.

To get that vital click your headline must either offer something that the others don’t – like a secret this, or a promise of that – or startle people into taking action. Give them a bit of a shock. Good shock, bad shock, doesn’t matter. Just get that click!

That’s why this article marketing tip starts “Your Headline Stinks!”

It could have started “How To Write Good Headlines” – but how dull is that? How about “Good Headlines Are Important”. Doesn’t really get you going, does it.

What about “Your Headlines Cost You Money”. There’s an example of something else we can use – fear. Fear of loss, fear of looking stupid. Fear is a great motivator.

Of course we also want to make sure we rank well for the phrase or market we’re targeting, hence “Article Marketing Tip”. Let’s not be shy here – we need to tell people what they’re getting. Two part headlines work usually well.

Another article headline tip that you’ll see a lot is lists. People love lists. 7 secret success thingies. 5 ways to a better something-or-other. Top 10 winning web articles. Usually odd numbers work best (with the exception of 10). Don’t ask me why, I’m no psychologist I just use what works.

The final important part of this article writing tip is to monitor your results. Directories will give you statistics – so use them. Try different styles of headline and see how they appeal to your market. Some won’t take to shocks, some will take to you being surprisingly blunt. Test and monitor – it’s a golden rule of anything you do to make money online.

Next article marketing tip coming soon. Headline will be – now that’s a great body!

Make More Money With Article Marketing – A Simple Way to Earn More and Work Less

Make More Money With Article Marketing – A Simple Way to Earn More and Work Less

Many people will tell you that article marketing is too much work and that you cannot really generate a lot of traffic with it, but nothing can be farther away from the truth.

Certainly, PPC and other “fast track” paid traffic generation methods can get you a great number of visitors faster, but the price is a big hole in you bank account that your revenue is unlikely to compensate unless you are really an expert in PPC marketing.

Indeed, in case you don’t know, folks that claim to pull $100,000 in sales each month, often fail to tell you that they have spent $90,000 or more in PPC, so yes, some of them might manage to keep their PPC costs lower than their sales, but in the end, they are facing a big risk that you can easily avoid by taking article marketing to the next level.

Now, how can you do this and turn article marketing into a massive traffic generation method and therefore a real source of massive sales and profits?

You must do one simple thing: submit your articles to 100-200 article directories instead of only 2-3.

This simple action on your part will be like turbo-charging and already powerful engine. Indeed, just to give you an idea, each time I submit an article to EzineArticles.com alone, I get around 50 visits from a single article in the first 1-2 days of it being accepted, and from there the article usually keeps on sending 1-2 visitors per day.

This means that if you use 100-200 directories instead of 2-3 directories, you could get a lot more traffic from a single article, depending of course on how much competition there is for the keyword you are targeting.

But this is not the only way articles will help your business, because also each article you submit will create a direct one way link to your website, which in turn will increase your page rank and gradually the amount of traffic you get from the search engines. Just 20 articles per month submitted to 200 directories will translate in 4,000 one way links, so you can imagine how this will impact your page rank in the long run.

The best thing about this is that both sources of traffic are 100% free and permanent, meaning that such traffic will keep on flowing and growing everyday, and so will your business without the need for you to spend a dime.

By now you must be thinking “200 directories? No way, that would take forever” and certainly you would have to be insane to submit an article to 200 directories manually, as you could be spending about 10 hours of your time only with the submission of one article to 200 article directories.

I have not even dared to do this process manually, but instead, I have been using an automated software for quite a while now, which is certainly the only viable and efficient way to submit your articles to a great number of directories without wasting hours of your time. This way you can actually do a lot more without having to work more.

How To Be Successful With The Spider Web Marketing System!

Hi

A lot of people fail with The Spider Web Marketing System like I did when I first joined it but I did actually receive a lot of leads but those leads never got passed stage 5 so to be honest, I failed!

I emailed each lead about 10 times and still nothing.

So then I decided to do some research on the best way to get targeted leads. Most of the solutions I found didn’t work but then there was one that did.

BLOGGING!

I made at least one blog everyday about the system and NO it did not show results instantly be after about week my blogs started to rank high in most of the popular search engines like Google, Yahoo, Windows Live Search and then my leads started to rush In and the best thing was they where all targeted leads.

I never believed in “you have to spend money to make money” because you don’t see people paying to go to work or getting a job do you so why should I now.

Me promoting the system is not the main reason why I am writing this article, the main reason is to help other people who is under me or not to become successful in the system without paying for stupid ads that never get any targeted leads.

If you are a member of the system and you are not doing very well with it then one thing I can tell you is NEVER give up!

One of the main reasons for people failing in the system is because they have a lazy sponsor who doesn’t care about individuals in their downline.

If that’s how your sponsor is then why not join our team. We do not ask for you to make another GDI account or any other streams of income under us.

We will help you in many ways.
