How to Drive Traffic With Article Marketing

Article marketing is the life blood for most successful Internet marketers.

If you are considering a career in Internet marketing or if you are attempting to make money at Internet marketing and do not know how to drive traffic with article marketing to your promotion pages you are loosing out BIG TIME! Successful Internet promoters know that their audiences read articles on the topics of which they are affiliates. Good articles are written with useful information and do not contain promotions for any products in the body of the article.

Internet audiences love articles because the “good” ones contain helpful information that point them in the right path to solving a specific problem. That is the purpose that affiliate marketers try to achieve: To help solve a specific problem, or answer a specific question that a specific audience is struggling with.

Bad writers simply want to promote junk articles that serve no other purpose than getting their affiliate links in-front of unsuspecting customers.

Bad articles are pointless, boring, and not informative. Poorly written articles barely skim a topic but do not offer any helpful information. This could mean the difference between getting a sale or not.

It is no mystery that people love to shop online. Most people are grateful to affiliates because the good ones spend time researching their topics and spend time honestly trying to help their audiences. Customers realize this and are happy to buy from affiliate links if their needs have been met. With that in mind, it is not a good idea to start writing an article until you have done your research.

Article writing is the last step in launching an Internet marketing campaign.

After all your niche research, audience research, and keyword research is complete you can then start to drive traffic with article marketing because you know now what your audience needs and how to genuinely help them. The only draw back to marketing with articles is the writing process. Some people may find writing as daunting and never achieve the success that is possible if they just learn how to write multiple and effective articles. If you can write emails, you can write articles! Do not stress!

Tip: Do not think of article in the scholarly sense. Think of articles as emails that you are writing to friends whom you want to help. After all this is information we are sharing and it should serve a higher purpose. That is all it is, an email you are using answer a friend’s question.

So if you are overwhelmed at writing so many articles consider this daily schedule for writing 10 articles a day:

1. Do basic keyword research
2. Write 10 keywords rich article titles and then resource boxes and then save them as draft. (50 minutes)
3. Take a break from the computer. (10 minutes)
4. Go back and write 3 articles 400+ words. (30 -40 minutes)
5. Take another 10 minute break.
6. Go and write another set of 3 articles.
7. Take another 10 -15 minutes break
8. Write the rest and you are done!

I have personally been using this strategy now and it is very effective. It keeps me going and I am not easily bored since I am taking several breaks. You can try it and see how much more articles you can get done per day.

Remember more articles = More traffic = More sales.

That’s it for today.
