Article Marketing - How To Succeed In Article Marketing

Thursday, December 18th, 2008

One of the philosophies I live by with article marketing is frequency. In fact, the law of cause and effect is one of my favorite laws and a “bull at a gate” attitude will eventually reap plenty of rewards.

So if you are thinking about article marketing then let me say this…don’t just dip your toe in the water but approach and perform it with frequency and passion. Too many people will hear how effective article marketing can be and will sit down and write an article and then submit it waiting for the sales to come rolling in.

Most times it doesn’t happen. Why? Because in the majority of cases, one article won’t cut it. But write ten articles targeting ten different long tail key phrases related to your niche then you are suddenly going to start to see some results.

Ten articles submitted over a month on ten different long tail phrases means you will be targeting specific readers. If it’s dog training then you will target phrases like:

dog training collars
dog trainers
dog training advice
dog training schools
dog training books
dog training video
dog training equipment
dog training supplies
dog training courses
dog training dvd

So instead of relying on one article about dog training and hoping to get a response, you now have ten articles attracting several aspects of dog training meaning a flow of traffic from each one adds up to a bigger flow over all. Can you see how powerful this is? It’s like sending ten salespersons out on a mission instead of relying on one.

If you are just starting a new niche try this:

1. Find ten key phrases related to your niche without a lot of competition.

2. Write an article around each of the key phrases.

3. Submit one a day to these article directories:

http://ezinearticles.com
http://searchwarp.com
http://www.selfgrowth.com
http://www.zimbio.com
http://www.goarticles.com
http://www.amazines.com

4. Write a different title for each directory you submit to.

5. After ten days, back off to two articles a week and assess it after a month.

So in a forty day period, you will have 18 articles circulating on the web promoting your niche. Provided the articles are constructed correctly then you will be seeing good results. Fill in the opt in box above to receive expert free tips on how to construct your articles.
