Article Marketing Tips

Greetings everyone!

To create this post I spent a lot of time going around various forums & picking up little posts that experts (senior posters) were giving to help others with article marketing.

First off, if you don’t know what article marketing is, you should do a quick google search. Anyway, here are some tips, please enjoy!

QUOTE

After submitting your articles to ezinearticles you should attempt to get page views so your article will end up on the top 30 in that category and then will get syndicated to other websites easier.

This way your 1 article will have 100X more effect. I would work on that first.

Recommended: A site that gives page views that are EXTREMELY low quality traffic, but still count. AKA an autosurf or manual surf. Just buy 1,000 credits for $10 or so and watch your article grow to the top.

QUOTE

Treat each article like a web site. Take the similar steps you take to build links and drive traffic to your personal website. Build a "wheel" as they call it.

Simple & profound.

You might use something like Submit Your Article or Unique Article Wizard. Both do automatic submitting to hundreds of article directories and have article spin software included. Both cost a monthly fee, but if your serious about promoting your website you need something like this. I’ve used them both. UAW has a article writing service now.

And finally….

Re-purpose the content, make a article video, build a squidoo lens, combine articles to make a free report, sell the articles as PLR.

Here is my article marketing strategy. First of all I hate writing, not too good at it, so I outsource all my article writing. I buy in bulk, 100+ articles at a time, so what I do is, I buy articles targeted to want I need, then once I receive all the articles, I submit them too Associated Content, but I keep the rights, this is a method I like to call Article Arbitrage. I usually make more money then I spend on the outsourcing.

After I have recouped my cost, I then (sense I still own the articles), I syndicate them to hundreds of article directories, with manually submitting to EZA, GoArticles & Articlebase.

After that, I then re-purpose them. I turn them into Squidoo Lens & free reports mainly. I like Squidoo lens, because they still rank well in Google, you can add an opt-in box on the lens, so it builds a list faster, by spreading the web form around the net.

After I do all that, I add them to a PLR mini-mart I’m building, and I sell the articles as PLR articles. This way, I get a recurring income from all the articles I have purchased. Then I rinse and repeat.

That is the overall strategy. Most likely leaving stuff out, but just going off the top of my head.

Hopefully these few tips will help some of you out with article marketing.

Basic Email Marketing Tips- Part One

Basic Email Marketing Tips- Part One

There is another name for email marketing which I am going to use very frequently.

If you are not already familiar with the term “opt-in”, we will explain this to you now.
Opt-in stands for opting in, something that a visitor to your website does when
subscribing to your mailing lists. When people subscribe to your list, they are opting-

in, and giving you permission to contact them in the future. These people have
voluntarily given their email address, name, and in some cases other information
through an opt-in web form that is either embedded within a webpage, email, or pop-

up. If the person does NOT "opt-in", then it is considered spamming. (Since the recipient did not REQUEST the email.)

Autoresponder is another very important term that you will hear throughout this series of Email Marketing articles. The term “Autoresponder” is used to describe an automated system that handles

all of your mailing list administration. It has a database of your mailing list
subscribers, allows you to send out emails in many different forms, and allows you to
sort, organize, manage, and utilize your mailing lists to the fullest extent. Having an

autoresponder is a crucial tool that is the backbone of any email marketing campaign.

Contrary to what you may think, email marketing is not SPAM. It is a technique used
to provide free information and promote products and services to people who have

opted-in to receive this information from you. SPAM is unsolicited email that has been
sent to you without your prior consent. (As described above.)

Now that you are familiar with what email marketing is, let’s get our hands dirty and

find out how this will benefit you. In the next section we are going to talk about the
benefits of Email Marketing and how you can literally make thousands of dollars a
year by adding a simple form on your webpage to collect names and email addresses

of your visitors.

Remember: Opt-in stands for opting in, something that a visitor to your website does
when subscribing to your mailing lists.

Benefits of Email Marketing

There are many reasons why email marketing can help you increase your online
earnings, but the main benefit is that your website visitors are providing you with the
opportunity to send them emails. Often your website visitors will not make a purchase

from your site, and once they leave your site, they are lost. Unless you implement
email marketing techniques to capture their name and email address, you will have no
way of contacting them again. What if you could contact them again? Would you be

able to convince them that your product is worth purchasing? After reading this series of articles, you will know exactly how to answer this question. The answer is YES.

Whether you are an expert Internet marketer, or someone who is just getting their feet

wet in the world of online marketing, your business will prosper by implementing these
cutting edge email marketing techniques. We are confident that our techniques work
because we have implemented every single technique and strategy that you are about

to learn. If we can make money with these techniques, so can you. The purpose of
Inside the List is to teach you how email marketing can make you money, and at the
same time “drive home” the fact that you are not taking full advantage of your website

traffic without collecting your visitor information.

We could write pages upon pages of the benefits that you will reap from reading my posts, but instead, we will get down to business and dive into our teachings.

Note: I like to talk in "third person" (or whatever it is). Please excuse myself when I say "we" or "our", when in fact I am talking about myself.

Thanks for reading everyone. Greetings off,

Basic Internet Marketing Tips

Greetings all! Here are a few simple tips for those beginning internet marketers out there who need some techniques to improve their success.

I’m not going to go a whole lot of detail here, but I just wanted to share a few quick things about how to generate some traffic, gain some back links (to share your site + get ad clicks), and of course, CAPTURE OPT-INS. (Even if you have no autoresponder, website, etc!) These beginner tips should give you newbie’s here a little boost to help you out. Just follow these simple steps. Try to minimize as many apps (or windows) as you can.

First find a few PLR ebooks (PLR means you can do anything with them, as if you wrote the ebook), and rebrand them with your information. (If anyone wants them, I have 36 related to internet marketing, just send me a PM if you want them for free.)

Next you have to find some products that you will find interesting to promote. Sign up on clickbank.com, if you haven’t already, and find some there. CB is easy, fast & free. (NOTE: MAKE SURE YOU USE A LINK CLOAKER WHEN PROMOTING YOUR PRODUCTS, OR ELSE SOMEONE ELSE MIGHT STEAL YOUR COMMISSIONS!!!)

Now go through the ebook (hopefully it is longer than 50 pages or so…if not adapt accordingly) and pick out 10-15 pages that are pretty good. Copy and paste them into a separate word doc. Leave this doc open and minimize it for later. Make some changes to these pages adding content and moving some things around. These will be your articles for your new blog. (We will talk about this a bit later.)

Now, you want to go open yourself a blog. I recommend blogger or wordpress… blogger for beginners since it is EXTREMELY easy to use, and wordpress for the more advanced user.

If you want to take the extra step and install wordpress on your own server, that is fine as well, however I find that quite expensive, hard & time consuming.

IMPORTANT NOTE: MAKE SURE THAT WHEN YOU SIGN UP FOR THE BLOG, MAKE THE TITLE HAVE THE MAIN KEYWORD OF YOUR EBOOK! THIS IS VERY IMPORTANT!!

VERY IMPORTANT- Make sure in your settings that you configure it to show "ONLY 1 Post" per page. The reason for this is so that when you post your 10-15 articles each one will be a new post with its own .html page. THIS IS VERY IMPORTANT! (more on this in a bit)

Now what you want to do is make sure you capture peoples email addresses. Sign up for a free account at either feedburner or formassembly, or another free contact form.

You NEED TO PASTE THE CONTACT FORM HTML CODE IN EVERY NEW BLOG POST THAT YOU MAKE. I know, it sucks, but it has to be done… unless of course you are using a custom wordpress template on your own hosting.

Now create a new post. Paste the HTML code in it for the form, and go back to the word doc that you minimized before (with the 10-15 pages of text in it.) Copy some of this and paste it in your new post. This will be your keyword targeted post.

You can do this over and over again with several different articles over and over again for ABSOLUTELY 100% NO STRINGS-ATTACHED FREE!!

Post 10 articles a day to one blog? No problem! Make 10 blogs daily? Sure! Within NO TIME you will be getting high SEO rankings and raking in the emails.

Then of course email marketing is a whole different story, but for now this should help you out.

Wishing you Success
