When you are new at something it helps to get some advice from someone who has been there, so I wanted to share with you some of my personal advice when it comes to article marketing.
Article marketing for newbies have a great advantage over people who are trying to get traffic using other methods, because they do not have to pay a dime for it! That is right, article marketing has no monetary cost! There are a few things that article marketing newbies should do in order to make sure they succeed, and also some things to avoid.
First off, make sure that you keep your articles fairly short in length.
Most people surfing the internet are looking for quick answers, so you need to provide them with quality information in 400 words or less.
Most of my articles are around 300 words and this seems to work well for me.
Secondly make sure that your article has a few keyword phrases, but do not repeat them to often.
Ideally you will have around 3 0r 4 keyword phrases in each article.
Sometimes you repeat the same phrase a few times throughout the article, and other times you throw in other phrases.
Last but not least remember to concentrate on your resource box.
This is where the magic happens, because no matter how good your article is people can only visit your website through a resource box.
Have a catchy resource box that focuses on what the product or service you are offering can do for your reader.
Article marketing newbies should be thrilled because this method of marketing is fun and very effective!
