Article Marketing Revealed

Article marketing is one of the most effective methods of traffic generation and name recognition building that is available online today, and yet many people in internet marketing, like yourself, perhaps, are unaware of how it really works.

Here is article marketing revealed:

1) Write articles related to the topic of your web pages

2) Include links to your web pages in the articles

3) Submit the articles to the online article directories

Generally at this point, the next step is for the article directory to perform. They will either accept your article, and publish it, and you should begin to get traffic from the article, or they will not accept it (reject it). When they reject your article, many of the article directories will send you an email indicating why they have rejected your article, and by studying the rejections, you can determine what changes you need to make to get your articles to the point that they are generally accepted and published. In this way your time will become more productive as you are writing articles.

Once your article is approved and published, it will be available online the world over for search engines to see and index, for humans to access and read, and for other webmasters to use as content for their own websites. This is the most exciting part of the process, as other webmasters upload your article, links included, into their web sites.

Many of the article directories also use RSS feeds that allow other webmasters to automatically update their own websites with the content from the article directories (including your own articles). This of course automates the article propagation process.

Article marketing really can be an awesome source of almost viral traffic, especially when the articles are submitted to the best article directories and the articles are written in a tone that encourages responsiveness.
