While some of that can be applied to article marketing for traffic, you’ll find that if you want to attain the best results possible, you’re going to need to develop a different approach.

And this approach is going to be crucial in determining just how well your efforts translate into actual traffic figures!

Just spend a moment to consider the issue at hand and you should see that there are a few areas in particular that stand out and are of the utmost importance to gaining traffic for your website. These are:

1. Ensuring that your article receives traffic

After all, if you want your article to be able to channel traffic to your website, it’s going to have to be getting traffic in the first place, right? Due to this, you’re going to have to take steps to make certain that it does.

Commonly the biggest source of traffic for your articles will be search engines. Many article directories have a naturally high ‘pull’ with search engines, and that’s what you’ll want to take advantage of.

Therefore, what you need to do is target the right type of keywords, so that your article gets the attention it needs, and ends up receiving a steady flow of traffic.

2. Convincing readers to read your article

Over the years, article directories have started to gain a less than sterling reputation, and many readers are prejudiced against anything that appears on them. As such, it is your job to ensure that your readers not only start to read your article, but finish it too!

Remember that your link is only going to be at the tail end of your article, and so it is important that you do everything possible to keep your readers reading.

Many skilled article writers use their articles as a ‘pre sell’, and somehow tie it in to what they’re eventually going to try to get the reader to do. With that approach, they literally kill two birds with one stone.

3. Provoking action in readers and getting backlink clicks

Last, but certainly not least, you’re going to need to use somehow get your readers to click on that backlinks, and this really is easier said than done.

One rule of thumb that you should always follow is this: Never end your article within the article body. Instead, make sure it flows seamlessly into the resource box, and then the recommended backlink.

Another tactic worth thinking about is incentivization, i.e. providing the reader with a convincing reason to want to click the backlink.

When all is said and done, this three pronged approach should be at the core of any effort to article market for traffic. If you’re able to ensure that each step is taken care of properly, you’ll find that you have nothing to worry about.

And in no time at all, you’ll have streams and streams of traffic coming in through your articles.

Knowing how much importance various search engines place in backlinks now, it is certainly advisable that you do everything in your power to ensure that you have as many as you can gather.

    And article marketing is the key to achieving that.

    However the mistake that many people make when they start to build up backlinks through article marketing is the simple fact that they don’t think it through fully. Due to that, many end up wasting a lot of time on efforts that really aren’t going to produce the right type of results, i.e. the kind that will get you a lot of attention with search engines.

    If you know the considerations and factors behind building backlinks through article marketing though, you should be able to streamline your efforts, and find that you’re accomplishing more, in less time.

    In many ways, the main factor that underlines this entire instance is a simple one: Not all backlinks are equal.

    By now, you should know that the manner in which you’re going to be building up backlinks is by submitting articles that contain a link leading back to your own website in the resource box. So, when article directories publish these articles, you’ll gain a backlink for each article published.

    However the ‘value’ of that backlink ties into something else entirely. Search engines are prone to evaluating each and every backlink and deciding how much it is worth based on a variety of factors.

    Some of these include:

    1. The ‘rank’ of the page from which the backlink comes from

    2. The ‘relevancy’ of the page to the content that the link leads to

    Naturally, for you, as a marketer, evaluating both of these factors is not an exact science. Some search engines, such as Google, have readily accessible ranking systems (called Page Rank) that will act as a great starting point. Others however, most notably, Yahoo, hide their ranking systems from the public view.

    All in all, this means that you’re going to have to rely on a combination of guesswork and what information you have available (i.e. Google’s Page Rank) to determine how valuable your backlink could be.

    Seeing as the relevancy is going to be supplied by the content that you’re writing itself, that’s less of a worry, and so the main focus should be to concentrate on those article directories that have a high rank. That way, any and all backlinks you obtain will be far more valuable than otherwise.

    End of the day, if you can get a lot of highly valued backlinks, you’ll find that the results you obtain in terms of your own search engine rankings, is going to be very much amplified. Even a few links from very highly valued websites are worth more than a score of lesser backlinks.

    Be sure to keep these factors and considerations in mind, and you’ll find that your article marketing for backlinks is more successful than you probably imagined!

Instead, you’re transitioning into the role of an ‘information provider’, and that is something that you need to take very seriously, and truly start to cash in on.

    Basically, it all boils down to this: Why do people read articles on article directories?

    Really the answer to that is simple: They want to find out information on a certain topic.

    As an article writer, you’re the person who is providing that information, and that is the basis for your newfound role. With that role there comes a lot of extra responsibilities – if you want to take advantage of it, that is.

    Many writers approach this responsibility fairly haphazardly, but you’re going to want to be different. What you want is that your readers regard you as a trusted and respected source of information, and thus know that you’re not going to mislead them.

    Once you’ve gained this trust and respect, you’ll be regarded as an ‘authority’ on the topic, and readers are far more likely to listen to what you have to say. With this kind of trust, and that kind of reputation, you should have no problems getting more traffic than you probably ever dreamed possible.

    So how do you achieve it? Simple:

    1. Make sure your facts are right

    Before you publish an article, be sure to check your facts. Nothing is worse than publishing something that is blatantly untrue, or misleading. With the internet on your side, checking facts is really something that is pretty easy to do, and it shouldn’t take you more than a few minutes.

    2. Offer helpful and honest advice

    Too often advice is only offered when there is something to gain from it, however, if you offer help and advice even when you stand to gain nothing, your reputation is going to be enhanced (so you’re really gaining something anyway!).

    Naturally, any help and advice you offer is going to have to be truly helpful, otherwise it just defeats the purpose.

    3. Pick topics that are of common interest

    Selecting the right topics is something that you should definitely try to do. In any niche there are bound to be certain ‘problem areas’ or ‘points of interest’, and you should try to have your articles concentrate on these.

    As you can probably well imagine these ‘problem areas’ offer a great avenue for you to offer help in!

    Remember that trust can take a lifetime to build, but a single moment to destroy. So once you’ve built up a reputation, you should do your utmost to ensure that you never compromise it in any way.

    Really, there is no reason why you should compromise it anyway seeing as there are so many ways to take advantage of a good reputation without compromising it.

    Brick by brick, you’ll build up your reputation until you are a true ‘authority’ – a ‘guru’ of sorts!

      Which means you can, and probably will, face competition.

      This article addresses two different aspects of increasing your ClickBank sales. First, how to ensure that you get the sale of a particular product that you are promoting (other than just additional marketing strategies). Second, how to sell more ClickBank products overall.

      When you have set up your affiliate link, one of the first things you want to do is to make sure that your affiliate link is working. If this seems obvious to you, let me assure you that it is not — more on that in a moment.

      How do you check to make sure that your link is working and you are getting credited for the sale? Click on your affiliate link and go to the sales page. Click on the order button, and when you get to the ClickBank order page, scroll down to the bottom of the page, and you should see the centered text: [affiliate = yourCBid]

      Where “yourCBid” is your ClickBank affiliate ID.

      Now, some folks have figured out ways to “hijack” ClickBank affiliate IDs. And others have figured out products to prevent that. One of these products is called Affiliate Hijacker — and consists of hosting the actual ClickBank sales page on your own domain. If you decide to do this, you should check with the ClickBank merchant to make sure that this is okay with them. One unknown affiliate uses this strategy, but failed to put their affiliate id onto the page. Since the domain owner is private, the ClickBank merchant has no way of determining who the affiliate is, but regularly receives sales from that page.

      Finally, the way to ensure that you get credited with the sale is to offer a unique and valuable bonus that the buyer can only get if they can prove they bought the product through your affiliate link.

      Now, another way to increase ClickBank sales is to sell more different ClickBank products.

      What’s the easiest way to do this? Well, when you promote a ClickBank product, you should be doing so by having your ClickBank affiliate link on a site that you own. Why? Because, once having gotten someone on your site you want to get them onto an email list. Make sure that you make your visitor an irresistable offer to sign up to your email list.

      If you are promoting a weight loss product on your page, offer some valuable hints or maybe coupons for diet products in trade for signing up to your list. Once on your list, you can promote the original product again, in different ways — but you can also promote other weight loss-related products that you find on ClickBank.

To put it simply, there are few other methods that offer such an easy way to build up many backlinks without having to jump through numerous hoops to do so.

      But if you’re just starting out down this road, then you’re probably not yet taking advantage of the full potential of article marketing to build backlinks. Most marketers don’t, to be honest, until they’re very well advanced in their efforts already.

      Needless to say, you’ll want to make every hour you put into your work count as much as possible though, so here’s the best ways for you to cash in on the full value of your backlinks:

      1. Use keyword-rich anchor text

      Heard of ‘anchor text’ before? Really, it’s just the blue underlined text that links back to your website, or in other words, the words that are used as the link itself.

      However what many marketers don’t realize is that the anchor text that you use actually plays a role in the value of the backlink. It all ties in to a concept called ‘relevancy’, which is part and parcel of how search engines evaluate backlinks.

      Ensuring that you have keyword-rich anchor text will mean that search engines associate your website with that keyword, giving you credit for it and providing you with a valuable edge over your competition.

      2. Mass-submitting articles

      Once you’ve written an article and submitted it to an article directory, what then? Sure, you have one backlink, but are you going to let the article you’ve written be used for just that?

      One good way to make full use of your articles is to submit them to as many article directories as you can. Each one that is published will then give you a valuable backlink in turn, increasing your yield from a single article.

      If you like, you could look into specialized pieces of software and even certain paid services that will help you do this quickly, easily, and almost entirely on autopilot. That way you’ll save time with your submissions.

      3. Use as many backlinks as possible

      Some article directories allow three backlinks, but most allow at least two. If you can, be sure to use as many as possible, because each one will help you with your efforts.

      To go about it in a good way, use one link to link to your main website, and another to link to a related article or page of your choosing. That way, your main website will be boosted from each article, while you also get to choose a different additional page to boost too.

      Together, these three tips should help you to get the most out of your articles. Cashing in on backlinks and maximizing what you get out of each and every article that you submit is part and parcel of streamlining your efforts, and will ensure that you make every second that you spend with your article marketing count!

Whether you’re new to promoting on ClickBank, or you’ve been doing it for a while, now is the time to consider building a list.

      If you’re totally brand-new, it might help you to know what an IM list is. Basically, it is a list of people who have signed up to be on your e-mail list. You’ll generally have an autoresponder set up that will automatically send the messages at a predetermined rate, based on what you have entered into the system. You can also broadcast e-mails whenever you have a special announcement or promotion.

      People will then join your list because you’re either offering them something for free as enticement to join up, or they know they will get quality information and special product offers by joining up. People join by entering their name and e-mail address in an opt-in form. In order to get these people to opt in, you’ll need to design a squeeze page. This squeeze page will contain the code your autoresponder company gives you (such as aWeber or Get Response) as well as some text and bullet points that showcase the benefits of joining.

      Once you have these people on the list, you will work to build a relationship with them. They will know they can get quality information and advice from you. Every so often, you can send them a product offer. This is great because instead of getting a one-time chance of people buying through your link when they land on your promotional page, you can contact them again and again via their e-mail.

      Studies have shown that it is easier to sell to people who are familiar with you (such as those on your list) then it is to sell to people who randomly went to a sales page. It might take a little bit longer to build up your list, but the results are well worth the extra effort. You can contact these people time and time again, and increase the customer’s lifetime value by incredible amounts.

      All of this information might sound daunting — and it is unless you have the step-by-step tools to guide you through. The good news is that there are products that will help take you by the hand to sell on ClickBank, including building a massive list in your niche!

After all, as long as you’re getting traffic, there really is nothing to worry about, right?

      While the above philosophy isn’t exactly ‘wrong’, it isn’t entirely right either, and the truth is, there are several compelling reasons why you should definitely be starting some form of article marketing. Once you know these, you should even have a clearer understanding of what your goals with it should be too!

      Here are the top reasons why you should use article marketing to your own advantage:

      1. Simple and Quick Method of Building Numerous High Quality Backlinks

      Today, backlinks form an important part of Search Engine Optimization (SEO), and so building them up is something that practically every website owner needs to be doing. Of course, there are other techniques such as social bookmarking, that can yield a high number of backlinks, but article marketing tends to be ‘longer lasting’, and have greater effects.

      2. Potential for Getting Highly Targeted and Pre-Sold Traffic

      If used properly, article marketing could get you a ton of highly targeted traffic that is already pre-sold on whatever it is you intend to use that traffic for. For instance, if you’re selling remote-control cars, you could be getting traffic that is very interested in making a purchase, and has already read an article on a certain type of car before clicking the backlink.

      What this means is that those who do click the backlink are that much more likely to make a purchase.

      As a marketer, this is the kind of traffic that is priceless to you, and you should definitely want as much of it as you can. Simply put: Article marketing is one of the best and most clear cut ways to get it.

      3. Ability to Act as a ‘Shortcut’ for New Websites

      One of the things that many new websites have problems with is tapping into the traffic from search engines. Sometimes, it can take months until search engines fully index and list every page on a new website.

      In this, article marketing really comes up as an attractive option because it allows you to tap into search engine traffic by taking advantage of the already high attention that is given to article directories. Thus, a new website can get a lot more traffic than it otherwise would.

      Based on these three reasons, you should be able to see just how powerful article marketing can be if you use it well. Whether you intend to use it primarily as a source of traffic or as a source of backlinks, the advantages that you stand to gain are still pretty clear cut.

      Once you start off with article marketing, the sky is really the limit when it comes to the results that you’re going to be able to obtain.

Sure, that is the simple version of it, but to get the most out of article marketing, you’re going to want to take things one step further.

      Starting from the basics though, you’re going to need to slowly but surely be submitting more articles. That much is a no-brainer, but if you simply submit articles without a plan, you’ll soon find that you’re being repetitive, and not really getting anywhere in particular. So what you need is a strategy that outlines your entire article marketing campaign…

      And here’s how you can get just that:

      1. Set Up Goals

      First and foremost, you should start off by knowing what you’re trying to achieve. Are you in it for the traffic or the backlinks? What type of traffic are you trying to get, or how many backlinks are you trying to build? These are the types of questions that you should answer.

      Remember, your goals can either be result-oriented or figure-oriented, depending on your preference.

      2. Figure Out How Best to Achieve Those Goals

      Once you have your goals, you’ll find that depending on what they are, you’re going to need to figure out what you can do to achieve them in the most convincing manner.

      If you’re article marketing for backlinks, that just means that you’ll want as many articles (and therefore as many backlinks) as possible. On the other hand, if you’re article marketing for traffic you’re going to want to ensure that those articles themselves are tweaked and optimized to encourage better results.

      3. Plan Out an Article Program

      So that you don’t start getting repetitive, before you start you should plan out exactly what topics your articles are going to cover.

      If you like, you could just go to article directories and source topics from there. Otherwise, you could dissect a certain niche down to its ‘core’ topics, and then divide them up and build articles around each and every one of them.

      Thus a topic like ‘article marketing’ could be dissected into ‘article marketing for backlinks’ and ‘article marketing for traffic’, and then further dissected too.

      4. Conduct Thorough Research

      After you’ve decided on the topics, you should do the research! As you’ll find, with topics that are ‘similar’ there could even be some overlap in this area, which is why it may be beneficial to do all the research at once rather than individually.

      Having done this, you should be ready to get started!

      [ampost]

      Do you see how this approach could help you to get even greater results from article marketing? By going about things in this orderly manner, your results are going to be maximized, and you’ll take advantage of the potential of article marketing in a very different way than previously.

      As you achieve your goals, you’ll even be able to create new ones, and set about achieving those, all the while with a solid strategy behind your back that ensures you’re able to do so.

If you are interested, keep on reading because we’re about to discuss the 5 essential rules of effective article marketing – some of which you may know, but others you most certainly won’t.

      Bear in mind that these ‘rules’ are subject to change though, but they should definitely help form a basis for you to increase the results that you’re able to obtain. Use them to your own advantage, and you’ll find that your articles, and results, benefit.

      1. Keep it short and simple

      Article marketing is not the place for long-winded speeches that drone on for ages and ages without getting anywhere. Most of the readers of article directories want facts and information presented to them in as simple and concise a manner possible, and so you should cater to them as much as possible.

      Normally, articles from about 350 to 750 words are more than sufficient for this purpose.

      2. Entertain and inform, always

      Don’t get so caught up trying to be informative that you end up writing dull and boring articles. And on the flipside, don’t try to entertain so much that you forget to put in any good information.

      A good article for article marketing must strike the balance between informing and entertaining!

      3. Check spelling and grammar, twice!

      Nothing is worse than an article that contains bad spelling or lousy grammar. While most article directories have their own vetting process, inevitably some mistakes end up slipping through.

      Due to this, it is up to you to try your best to make sure that each and every article you submit is in tip top condition as far as spelling and grammar are concerned.

      4. Provide tips as and when possible

      Giving people tips is something that they’ll appreciate. This doesn’t necessarily mean that you need to let them in on ‘big secrets’ every time you give out a tip though. In fact, a tip could be something as simple as a warning of something that could go wrong.

      Honestly, people love to be warned in advance, and your readers will definitely appreciate it if you help them out in this way.

      5. Do not over-promote yourself or your products

      Remember that your articles are articles, not advertisements, and so they shouldn’t contain too much self-promotion. Sure, the resource box exists for that reason, but the rest of your article should definitely concentrate more on providing information.

      If you over-promote yourself, you’ll find that readers instantly recognize that fact and are less likely to read your article to the finish.

This is the most difficult step for many people! There are many marketers who take the time to set up a promotion, but aren’t sure how to actually get people’s eyeballs on their offer! That’s why it is so essential to focus time and energy on traffic generation.

      While this is essential, it is not always the most fun thing you’ll do! In fact, some people find it to be downright painful. Still, it doesn’t actually have to be all that time-consuming and the benefits far outweigh the drawbacks.

      One of the best ways to drive traffic to your promotions is through article marketing. Many new marketers start off with this for a reason! All you generally need to do is write around a 400 word article that entices people to want to learn more about the product at hand. You’ll then submit these articles to article directories, such as E-zine Articles, in the hopes that people will find the articles and end up on your promotional page.

      Another way to drive traffic is to build out your website a little bit, and then create back links to it. You can do this via social bookmarking. Delicious, Digg, and many other social bookmarking sites are out there, and you can use them to create back links and drive more traffic.

      Social networking is another method. For example, many people create Twitter accounts and manage to find friends who are interested in that certain niche. As you’re offering relevant and quality information in your tweets, you can occasionally promote your offer. This is a great way to quickly get targeted buyers!

      Yet another way to drive traffic is to use pay per click. You have to be careful when doing this so that you do not end up losing money. However, when done right, you can massively increase your profits and drive a ton of traffic to your promotions by using PPC, like Google’s Adwords.
