Article Marketing Part 1 - Content Is Still King
Since the beginning, you've been told that "Content Is King" but
there are so many website owners - who have been trying to win
the search engine battles - ignore the rules and try to be
'smart'. They used software and tools to trick the search
engines to get their websites indexed highly but only to find
out that their websites were banned a month later.
Don't get me wrong! There are actually some legitimate tools
that can help you get your websites ranked higher. People pay a
hundred dollars or more just to own them. That is fine as long
as it works and does not violate the criteria search engines are
looking for on a website.
But why are they doing it?
For an obvious reason, I guess - to get as much traffic possible
to their websites, which in turn produces more revenue to the
website owners.
And then, there are really smart marketers who go by the
"Content Is King" rules and are really winning the search engine
games day by day. These marketers use words to turn into
traffic. With a single 500-word article, within time, they can
create hundreds of backlinks to their websites - resulting in
more web traffic, more sales, and more profits. Then, they write
one more article, and some more.
That's right - we call them article marketers. You can see their
names when you search a keyword and their articles appear on the
main page of the search engine. You click on the links and their
articles come up.
Now let me tell you a little secret. These marketers don't write
these articles and post them only on their websites.
First, they write these articles and at the same time allow
others to reprint them for free. That makes you able to forward
these articles to other people and these other people can also
forward to more people provided the content of the articles are
not changed or modified. In short, these articles are viral.
Second, they submit these articles to various article
directories and online publishers to get maximum exposure. The
more publishers they can find, the more audience they can reach.
Thus, the more sales they can make.
Think about it. If the pros are doing it and they are getting
tons of traffic and sales, then you too can have the same
privilege - only if you follow their steps.
Wouldn't you want to generate sales without having to pay a
single red cent?
If the answer is a resounding 'yes', then consider article
marketing seriously.
