Ways to Hone Your Article Marketing Skills

By Randall Nielsen


Improving your article marketing skills is one of the most important things to do as an internet marketer. There may be several ways to promote your business and drive traffic to your site, but article marketing is still key. To help improve your article marketing skills, apply the following tips to your writing.

Pay Attention to SEO Copywriting: Articles that are meant to be used for online marketing reasons will be quite different to the ones you create on a regular basis. The goal of your article marketing campaign is to get traffic to your blog or website. For this reason, it is imperative that you create articles that are appealing both to the readers as well as search engines. Creating content that is interesting to your readers as well as being something that the search engines can index is referred to as SEO copywriting. Inserting your main keywords into the article is important, but it is imperative that you do it in such a way that it reads correctly to humans. Ranking well in the SERPs means you can get organic traffic to your articles, which can be done by inserting your keywords in your articles.

Controversial Topics: People love controversy about as much as they enjoy reading new information. You will get massive amounts of traffic and your articles have a greater chance of going viral if you handle controversial topics. The main idea here is to get the attention of your target audience and have them talk about your articles. You won't need to worry too much about promoting your articles because your audience will spread the word for you with recommendations.

Interest Your Readers: You need to offer your readers fascinating and engaging content. How can one make their content interesting and enthralling, is the question. Provide your readers with answers to their most pressing questions. This will involve some research on your part because you need to find out exactly what they want to know so you can then answer their questions as best you can. So, let's presume your niche is "dog training tips" and one thing a lot of people want to know is how to get their dog to sit, then you have a great subject to write about. You can find popular questions on Yahoo! Answers and other forums and discussion boards.

Last but not the least, don't look at article marketing as a method that will give you temporary results. Articles can be highly effective at getting you more leads, traffic, sales and profits, which is why you need to focus on offering quality.
