How to market your articles.





Do you get tired of pulling your hair out 
trying to figure out the magic to marketing your articles? 

If so, you are part of a large population that just needs 
to look a bit closer at the resources that are provided, 
and to learn more about article marketing's ins and outs.

Start with these tips to get a good idea of it all.

Begin here.


To help bring more traffic to your blog, 
make good use of your tag cloud

Be sure to tag each post with relevant and popular keywords 
so that visitors can easily find what they are looking for. 
The easier your blog is to navigate, 
the more traffic you are going to get.

Publicise your articles on social media sites 
and everywhere else you can. 

Promote them in your blog and newsletter, 
and make sure everyone knows where to find your articles. 
The more people that read and share your articles, 
the more visitors, and hopefully buyers, 
you will have to your site.

Next.


No matter what you're writing about in order to market your site, 
your article never has to be over 500 words. 
In fact, you should strive to keep your articles 
at right around 400 words. 

Content is about getting the attention of the reader, 
not losing it in fluff and stories 
that just won't end. 
Save that for your Great Novel.

Over time, you will have published many articles across the net. 
Gather your best articles for an eBook 
that can be given away for promotional purposes or sold. 

If you have a good e-book, it is sure to be widely shared, 
which will lead to an increase in business.



Writing


Focus your writing on thorough explanations 
and information and include only the content 
you find the most important. 

If your article is longer or shorter than you originally intended, 
that is allowable. 
Keep content heavy, and your word count will not matter as much.

Blogging


If you are going to use micro-blogging sites 
to promote your business, 
be sure you understand their function 
before you start posting. 

If you fail to follow the etiquette 
and usage of the format, you could do more harm 
than good to the reputation and online presence of your business.

Start a blog. 
Blogging can be an effective means 
to draw attention to your website - 
especially if you have something worthwhile to say. 

Start a blog and leave reciprocating links 
on your website's main page. 
You have nothing to lose by doing this 
and, potentially, a great deal to gain.  

That’s it. 

These tips could be a great source of getting 
over anxiety and misunderstanding 
of article marketing and how it works. 

You could get great and profitable results 
from using these techniques, 
but you have to be ready to learn 
all you can as you proceed 
to remain ahead of the game.
