Money to Be Made

I came into this profession of internet writing and marketing thinking I pretty much had it in the bag. I had written magazine articles, newspaper articles, and countless corporate financial reports. After retiring from the corporate world, I was looking for something else to do.

In my research, I quickly discovered that consumers were spending a lot of money on the Internet. Consumer internet spending was on the rise. Every year it grew over the previous year. I wanted a piece of that pie.

It is not as difficult to determine the position in the search engine organic listings of your website based on a keyword. You simply use one of the many free rank checkers available on the internet.

I use SEObook's rank checker to find the ranking of my sites. You name the URL of your website and list the keywords that you wanted to rank for and let the software determine the position of your website for each of the keywords in the search engines you choose.

Finding articles online and finding your article's position in the search engines is another matter.

It is very difficult and time consuming to find articles ranking for any given keyword. Unless you are in the top 10-30 positions of the search engine rankings (that is the first three pages), you can spend an inordinate amount of time searching page after page of listings looking for your article.

Jason Fladlien is a former monk, rapper and house painter, turned internet marketing guru. Many people who have achieved his level of success don't like the name guru, but I believe in this case it fits.

My discovery of Jason Fladlien was purely accidental. I was looking for a way to promote my network marketing business.

I ran across one of his products called, "How To Write An Article In 7 Minutes".
I had heard of article marketing, but didn't know much about it. Anyway I purchased it and downloaded my copy quickly.

I remember sitting at my kitchen table reading this thing. My first thought was, wow!
This was the first information product that actually taught me what it said it would. Not only that, I didn't have to buy 'the next' product to help me get past the stumbling block most information products give you.

I was instantly a Jason Fladlien follower

Are you kidding me? You have heard people claim that they can punch out an article in 10 minutes and submit articles to leading article directories in one hour or less. Well, that may be true for some, but not for me. I beg to differ.

Writing articles for money isn't any different than any other job. It takes time and effort.

Ten-Minute Article Myth

Newbie article writers fall for this hype. I know I did. Don't be discouraged if in the beginning, it takes several hours to write, publish, and promote your articles.

When I first started, I was disheartened by all the gurus who insisted that taking anytime longer that a half hour to create an article was inexcusable. I almost gave up.

Some articles, like opinion articles, come right off the top of your head. It's as if the subconscious takes over and the words flow. You can easily type one of those out in ten minutes.

The title of your article is its most read part. Not everyone will read your entire article, but almost everyone will read the article's title. The title is often referred to as "the hook". A good title will increase your chances of "hooking" a lot of readers.

The article shouldn't be filled with really long sentences that drone on forever. After reading the title, readers will glance at the "shape" of an article. An article's shape is its physical layout on the screen or page. The number of paragraphs and the density of paragraphs give an article its...

What Is Article Marketing?
 
Article marketing is the system of posting articles and content to various online directories that are based on your market area. They are designed to bring traffic and buyers to your website where they will then hopefully buy from you, or join your sales funnel. It is also the way many generate links and authority in their niche.

The trouble is that many of the so-called gurus teach that all you need to do is throw together some basic material, launch it at as many different articles directories as possible and that should lead to a flood of... ]]> Tue, 25 Jan 2011 17:24:11 GMT http://www.article-marketing-services.net/marketing-articles/article-productions-taking-online-business-to-all-new-levels/ Writing Articles - 4 Pitfalls To Avoid and One Caveat http://www.article-marketing-services.net/marketing-articles/writing-articles-4-pitfalls-to-avoid-and-one-caveat/ Writing articles is a rewarding profession. Website content writing and blog article writing are not only monetarily rewarding, they offer you an opportunity to provide valuable information to your readers.

More than likely you are comfortable with English grammar and style. Yet, there are subtle pitfalls that new and seasoned website content writers and blog writers overlook. This article identifies four pitfalls to avoid when writing good quality content.

You may have read or heard that content is king; well, that is true. Writing articles is not like writing a sales letter. You should not write a sales letter disguised as an article when your reader is looking for quality information.

If you plan to publish in the major article directories, your content must deliver what your title implies. If your title does not deliver, then more than likely your reader will bounce away and not read down to your call to action, to your resource box.

Just what is quality content? If you do a Google search for "quality content" without the quotes, you get over 330,000,000 results (as of this writing). Do you think there may be a few different definitions in that search?

Let's restrict our Google search to "quality content writing". That limits the results to a little over 39,200,000. That is much narrower, but still a number that will give you a mind-boggling list of definitions.

Since we are article marketers, we will restrict our search even further to "quality content writing for article writing" now we get a mere 7,990,000 results. We are definitely getting somewhere (smile).

WHAT

 

·        Basically, an article directory is a website to which writers submit articles. Other internet users can then trawl these directories to find content which they can use for free within their own websites, blogs, ezines or newsletters.

·        Although the writer does not receive a payment, they are always publicly credited as the author when it is re-published by other internet publishers / users.   Often the article will contain a link to the author's own site.

 

WHY

 

·        By writing articles and submitting them to the sites, writers gain both an audience for their work and interest in their own websites.    There are so many possible categories within many of the most popular internet article directories that most writers or...

If you are like me one of the last things that you want to think about is writing articles. Most people either don't like to write or they think that they can't write. But still, using articles in your promotions is incredibly effective. That's why you may want to think about using some methods of article writing.

                   But before you need to worry about article writing, you need to really understand and I mean really understand why articles are so very important to your promotions.

This is then displayed live online, and can be utilized either as a traffic generating tool to increase advertising revenue or as a promotional assist for an author and his business credentials within a particular market.

 

Internet article directories are often driven by search engine optimization rules (SEO), which uses keywords and article tags to improve their visibility and help to drawer traffic to the article and hosting website. Directories also allow article or content to link their work to other websites, and the popular and renowned directories are often searched and trawled by search engine webmasters to create effective and generative backlinks.
