The internet thrives as a source of information.
There are not too many questions or problems that are faced in life that you can't find the answer to on the internet.
It is time for you crank up those desires to be a writer and jump right in.
Information based marketing through article writing will be with us for a long time to come.
So how do you carve out your spot with article directories? What do you need to do before submitting an article to an article directory? First, what is an article directory? An article directory in the simplest of terms provides you with a place where you can place your articles on the internet.
People then come to the directory site to find articles on any given range of subjects.
Article directories are invaluable tools for both the writer and the reader.
Each directory has a list of guide lines for the articles that it prints.
Directories must have you follow these guidelines closely so that the integrity of their site is maintained.
They can't let it become a free site for simple self promotion of people writing the articles.
They must remain strictly a knowledge based source.
That said you may still promote yourself as an expert in a given niche and refer the reader to your website in the resource box.
This allows you to promote yourself and your products and services.
Here are some tips to help you work with the article directories.
1.
Remember the purpose of writing the article.
Writing the article is about providing information and helping to establish you as an expert in a given area of expertise.
Use the article to build your brand and draw interest to find out more of what you do.
Getting people to want to know more about what you do and know builds your image.
Remember you are writing your article for your audience.
Focus on them and not on you.
Use the word you seven times as often as you use the words me or I.
The better your content interests them the more likely they will click on your resource box.
2.
There are an abundance of reasons for article writing.
Many are promotional to you and your online business.
The articles will help you get backlinks to your site.
This will help your sites to be found on the search engines, which will create more traffic to your site.
Use keywords in the proper places but do not over use them.
Search engines will ignore you if you go above a certain level of use of keywords.
Bu never sell yourself or your product on an article.
You will immediately lose creditability.
3.
Always publish content that will help your readers.
If you help your readers they will look to you for more help.
If they see you as a person who will provide what they are looking for, they will look to you the next time they need to know something.
As you provide this information they will come to you directly rather than search the directories for you.
Another thing to remember is to write the articles that the directories want.
Not all are looking for the same content.
Remember take the time to write high quality content that your readers want to find.
If you will focus on that you will create massive amounts of interest in what you do.
Build a rabid list of followers of every keystroke you make and you will define wealth in the dictionaries.
May I wish you great experience and not great luck? Great experience will determine the outcome of any luck that you may have.
