Why Use Internet Article Marketing?

Written by Marie on Jul 22nd, 2010 | Filed under: All Posts

Why Use Internet Article Marketing? Internet marketing is an art. Planning strategy and building momentum for a business is exhilarating, challenging and fun.

Admin:  Article marketing can be a pain if you are not a good writer but it is one of the best ways to get constant traffic that generates leads for you 24-7.

Because of the nature of the beast, internet marketers tend to look for the strategies and techniques which have the potential of yielding the most immediate results.

While PPC is undeniably the technique with the highest potential for yielding fast, almost immediate results, if you are one of the many internet marketers who refuse to give article marketing a fair try, you are missing out on a highly effective, and incredibly powerful tool.

Here’s why you should use article marketing as part of your marketing strategy.

Cost – Article marketing is free! Yes, there are some paid services that will aid in the distribution and syndication of your articles, but, for those willing to take the time to post the articles themselves, article marketing is a 100% no-cost advertising solution.

Longevity – Once an article is posted within an article directory, it is not removed, unless it is found to be inappropriate or considered “spam.” So, an article written within the guidelines of the submission sites, could bring traffic to your site, and potentially sales, even years after its initial publication.

Ranking – Placing your article in high ranking directories can get you ranked on the first page of the search engines’ organic listings within a matter of hours, if you do your keyword research properly. Not only that, but backlinks from these high-traffic directories back to your site placed within your articles can also build your site’s ranking.

Branding – If you make it a point to write articles which provide valuable content related to your niche, or which is pertinent to your target audience, your name and your company will begin to be directly linked to the keywords and content you target. So, in essence, you are building your brand as you become better known for your highly useful submissions.

Now, we have just scratched the surface here. But, the answer to the question, why use internet article marketing should be pretty clear by now. You owe it to yourself to go out and try just a couple articles and see what happens!

One of the most coveted skills you will ever learn as a newbie to online and off line marketing is list building.

Admin:  These super simple tips are right on and can help anyone grow their list fast. But you have to follow through as no action gives no results.

The simple act of an exchange between two parties: You and your prospect. If you really want to succeed in your business, make it a point to learn this skill. Flooding your email marketing list with loyal subscribers who have grown to like and trust you is like money in the bank.

The first secret in growing your list is value. The more free stuff you give away, the more you will benefit in the long run. Most people are not willing to give their time or energy for such a hot commodity of loyal subscribers, however, those who are willing to give it all they got will reap the harvest in the end.

The second secret to building your email list is to have a place where your prospects can see what you have to offer. A squeeze page or a capture page is the destination you want your visitors to see. The most effective components of a squeeze page are:

The Headline
The Benefits
Bonuses

The third secret to growing your list is making a irresistible offer. The reason why so many people cannot help but buy product from marketing channels like QVC is due to their offers. They are experts at erasing anxiety, fear, and objection.

Marketing is all about setting up your targeted prospect to buy. In other words, when you set your offer up right, your prospect will close themselves in joining your list.

Understanding of Pinging, Rss Submission and Social Bookmarking

Written by Marie on Jul 5th, 2010 | Filed under: All Posts, Lead Generation

You may have heard the terms “RSS Feed”, “Pinging” and “Social Bookmarking”, and wondered exactly what it means and how this can help you with your marketing efforts. The answer is that it is very helpful if you explore what they can do for you.

Admin: This is a subject matter that many new marketers don’t pay enough attention to.  One must realize that to get really good marketing information one needs to get it from proper online training sources.

I want to share with you and explain these 3 terms and how you can use them for your getting more traffic and leads.

Social Bookmarking: (sites like Digg, Delicious, Stubmle Upon, Mr. Wong…)

Social bookmarking is when you bookmark your favorite sites with link, headline and keywords. You will let search engines know that you created a new content.  The reason we want to do this is easy, authoritative on-way links to your site. Let me explain this further.

Google and other search engines use the number of incoming links to your sites as a barometer of the popularity of your site or blog. They are in essence, “Votes” for your site, and get enough of these, and you will find your rankings starting to improve. The reason they are “authoritative” is that many time they have a great deal of page rank and trust rank, and Google views them as more valuable links. A good example of this would be links from Wikipedia. One way links simply means that they are linking to you, and you are not linking back to them.

You can bookmark every article that you made or every video that you created, but when it comes to bookmarking your blog posts be aware that you should bookmark around 50% of your content otherwise you will be acting spammy and you will be banned from some sites.

Pinging:

Pinging is electrical signal or notification to search engines that your content is available. You will get additional rank for your website. Pinging is very simple and it will take you only a few minutes to ping your new content.

You can also do additional pinging when you ping also your blog home page twice a month. Just be sure that you have some new content on your website.

RSS Feeds:

RSS Feed is digital reading of your site.

There are two main RSS categories.

·    RSS feeds where people can subscribe to your RSS
·    RSS Feed submissions

You want to get as many subscribes as possible, because every time you create a new content, they will get notification about it. This way you can get hundreds of visitors every single day. Many blogs have this option automatically, you can check if you can see a little RSS Feed button on your blog.

The second use of RSS is when you submit your RSS Feed to RSS directories. The best thing about it that you need to do this only for the first time and your blog is there almost forever. It will automatically post there your new content from your blog. Google and other search engines goes there several times a day, Google loves them and it is one of the easiest way for Google to find your content.

You can also create Super Feed and submit this Super Feed to RSS directories. Super feed is when you create RSS on your own with your best content.

Using pinging, social bookmarking and RSS feeds is a terrific way to not only get your page indexed fast, but get more traffic and exposure for your content and keep your content in front of your readers, which goes a long way toward helping you build authority and stand out from the crowd as a leader.
