What is Article Marketing?
By Pilot in Featured | 4 comments
Starting an online business is a big task. Letting people know you’re out there is even bigger. These days, thousands of new businesses make an appearance on the Internet every week, so getting your business noticed above everyone else’s is a challenge.
Article Marketing is seen as a powerful tool to help advertise your business. It remains one of the best ways to draw your target market to your website and convince them to do business with you.
Achieving results using article marketing is not a simple task. It is important to have original articles written with quality content. The articles are then distributed to high traffic distribution sites and niche publishers that will have a highly relevant visitor base. The visitors will hopefully click through to your site by finding your URL in the author’s information box posted with the article.
Article Marketing works slowly and you shouldn’t expect to get a load of traffic overnight. If you work at it and continue adding articles consistently, you will eventually receive a sizeable amount of free traffic.

Articles are the best way to get noticed online.Write unique,quality articles and post them on your blog and in article databases. This has to be done regularly.

This is 150% correct. Article marketing is simply the best way to get tons of traffic to your website. I get at least 50 views to my website a day just from my article marketing efforts.
And it is true, you must write your own unique articles regularly in order to really excel in article marketing.
Good stuff! Keep it up!

As a directory webmaster I can’t stress the “quality” aspect highly enough.
Whilst I welcome new authors, I can honestly say that probably 85% of submissions received nowadays end up on the cutting room floor for a whole host of reasons.
My advice - read a directory’s submission guidelines before sending in your copy, proof read everything for errors too and don’t submit ad copy - articles are not ads and any human edited directory worth its salt will delete them without blinking

so how many article directories are advised? i read somewhere that submitting in too many directories can also be harmful because of dupe content issues.
