Almost every marketer talks about article marketing these days. It has become a chief strategy for Internet. Due in part to the popularity of the “bum marketing” method, article marketing has two significant characteristics: it works, and it’s free.
Article marketing provides Internet marketers with two important benefits. First, it creates wider exposure for the author and their website. Secondly, it provides valuable inbound links or IBL’s.
Just like the other bum marketing strategies, article marketing is all about numbers. It’s effectiveness relies on consistent and ongoing effort. A single article has limited benefit, however daily submissions have an overall benefit greater than the sum of its parts.
Maximizing your article submission strategy means targeting a single keyword or phrase, one per article. It’s equally important to optimize each article, similar to each page in a website. In fact, each article acts as a one-page mini site.
SEO each article the same way you would SEO a web page. Begin the article headline, summary, and first paragraph with it, include it in the last paragraph, and be sure to use it for the anchor text in your link and/or resource box.
If you follow these few simple steps, your return on investment of time will be maximized. Article marketing should be one part of every Internet Marketer’s multipronged strategy, as it can be extremely effective and very inexpensive.
