To Do Article Marketing or Not To Do Article Marketing

By Brent Sweet

If you have any knowledge about your field then you can make article marketing work for you. Any person in SEO or other fields would agree that article marketing is the best way to get your site listed in the search engines. There is a large impact in search engine results, I use it all the time. If you have some extra time in a day, then I would say write an article and submit it all over the internet. Then track your results.

If you don't know how to get started there are several eBooks on the market that can help you. I have learned a lot from reading eBooks on how to write articles. Some will even share information on how you get your articles to sell. I personally don't use my articles for selling techniques. I like to write the articles just to inform people on the internet. Then I use my resource box to help with my search engine optimization efforts. Search engines reward me for putting time in my articles.

The best way to get free traffic is from the search engines. Though I agree with most that article marketing will provide some free traffic, it is not the best way to do it. Article marketing, however, will increase search engine rankings which does help with free traffic. I would say that to get up in the search results for your website, article marketing is the way to go. If you are simply just trying to promote affiliate links through article marketing though, I think you are wasting your time.

I have been really rewarded doing article marketing. I recommend it to anybody willing to give it the effort to get results. One thing is sure you can write one article and expect it to deliver. I write several articles every day. Sometimes I feel like I work for a magazine. The neat thing is that I do see results of my effort though, and I see them faster than any other form of marketing. The key, write as many unique articles as you can, and submit them with efficient submission services. Be an expert in your field, and live with passion. - 15432
