Article Marketing Tips 101
You probably have heard of what article marketing can do for you. You probably heard that article marketing can drive tons of targeted traffic and make you a lot of money. Do how many of you actually know what article marketing is and how you actually go about doing it the CORRECT way?
If you think article marketing is all about writing tons of articles with your affiliate link in your resource box and submit it to the article directories and you will be rich, then you are so dead wrong.
Writing articles is a tedious and boring process, so learn it right and do it correctly to avoid making mistakes that all newbies make, including myself. Here’s some tips that i have when you write your articles.
1) Do your keyword research before choosing a particular keyword to target. Go a Google search on the keyword with the “” bracket. If the number of searches that appears in Google is less than 10k, then you can target the keyword.
2) In your article, insert the keyword that you want to target about 3 times in the whole article. Input a link for the keyword that you target.
3) Insert a link in your article body. This will greatly improve your CTR! Trust me… I’m having an average of 20++% CTR with just this strategy alone.
4) Your articles should be about 350 words minimum. Even though the accepted level is 250 for ezine articles. However, you want to position yourself as the expert in the eyes of the readers. So you gotta provide quality content so that they will be tempted to click on your link to see what you have to offer.
5) This is dead important! Your author bio box. You definitely need to do this well! I have seen resource box that is Soooo badly written that i could not even bother to click on his link. Position yourself as the expect in your niche and that you are the men and savior to their problems!
Just keep writing them… They will pay off in due time and take some effort to write them out. In my next post, i will be blogging about how i write articles out in warp speed. Usually less then 10 mins for a 300-350 words article in ANY niche!

i focus mainly on just Ezine Articles because that’s where most of the money come from. I also submit my articles to some other directories for backlinking purposes..
Hi Ivan!
Can you please, when you wrote in #2 “input a link for the keyword that you target” – and in #3 “insert a link in your article body” – how do these 2 differ?
Hi Michalska,
for point #2, let say you are targeting the keyword “Clickbank Marketing For Newbie”, you should put your link under the targeted keyword. so you should input in this html coding.
