Here are some tips to help you and assist you in writing your articles. Below you will read about four things all articles must have to make the whole process successfull.

Use Your Keywords and Keyword Phrases
An article must always be centered on the keywords and keyword phrases. As each website visitor arrives at a site, there are those who are just merely browsing but actually looking for specific information. When this happens, a searcher usually goes to a search engine and types in the keywords they are looking for (e.g. Dog Training, Writing, Britney Spears, etc., etc.). It could be anything they are searching for.

The Important thing is that you have an article that has the keywords that are related to your site. For example, if you maintain an health related site, you must be able t have articles about health and related topics. There are many tools on the internet that provide service in helping webmasters out, in determining what keywords and keyword phrases are mostly sought out. You can use free tools, such as Overtures free keyword tool to determine what keywords to use and write about.

Keyword Density- What is The Right Amount
Know that you have your keywords and keyword phrases, you must use them fully. An article must have good keyword density for a search engine to feel its presence. Articles should at least have two to five percent of keyword density in their content for search engines to rank a site high in their search results. Getting a high rank is what articles do best for a site.

Keyword density is the number of times a keyword or keyword phrase is used in an article. The number varies depending on the number of words used in an article. An effective article, must have a keyword density that is not too high or too low. With a very high density, the essence of the article is lost and may turn off a reader as well as the search engines.The search engines will just view your article as spam. A low number may be ignored by the search engines.

Only Write Good Article Content
Like what is stated above, you cannot just riddle an article with keywords. They must also be regarded as informative. Your articles should be able to entertain people as well as provide good information and help with their needs. Articles should be written well, with correct spelling and good grammar. If you want people to trust you, make your content clear and well thought out.

Readers respond well to figures, facts and statistics. Try to include statistics and as many facts as you can. A well written article will boost your reputation as an expert in your chosen field or topic. As more people believe in you. They will be able to trust you and your products.

Use Your Resource Box
And another important thing to remember. If you are doing article submissions to ezines and/or contribute your content to newsletters and other sites, Do Not forget to include a link back to your site. A little resource box with a brief description of your site and a html link back to your websites. If people like your articles, they will most likely click on the link directing them to your site.

You will also be building up your link popularity in the whole article submission process.
