Article Marketing & Traffic Generation Exposed

By Joseph Stan


There's no doubt that one of the best methods of traffic generation is article marketing. Even though over the past few years some directories have been hot with various hits from algorithms updates by search engines is still a very powerful way to generate traffic and links to your sites. The more articles you published, the more traffic you will get from your articles. The concept is quite simple, the key is finding popular directories.

If you can create controversial articles about your niche or interests chances are you will attract more people to read your article. Usually curiosity and controversy are the best ways to get people to read your articles. They also get shared and commented more than a regular facts and numbers article. In your reviews do not take any sides, your reviews should be generic so that you have a wider audience of readers.

I recommend you post your original articles on your blog or website first. Then you can submit spun versions of the same article to multiple popular directories each linking back to your main original article. Search engines love sites and blogs who are updated on a daily basis. The more you follow this submission technique the better your results will be.

Don't forget your bio with each article you produce. This tells the reader a bit about you, and it can include your website link. Readers who like your article should check out your site. This link simplifies the process of your readers discovering your site. A biography makes the article seem more personal, too.

When you are writing your articles they should not sound like promotional sales pitch or ads. Keep in mind your readers are looking for information and they want to find it on your article. If your article sounds like a sales letter from the beginning then they will exit the page.

Your main focus with article directories is to provide quality info while taking advantage of the popularity of directories to drive traffic to your own sites. The more content you have published online, the better your results will be. After all we all want to get more targeted traffic and generate more income, article marketing is just one more way to do it.
