I like article marketing because I know when people click on to my link and go to my site, they are already interested in what I have to say.

They like my style and they like it enough to click on to my bio at the bottom of each article, and you can develop the same relationship with your subscribers if you use article marketing to generate massive traffic.

Article marketing is simply the process of writing articles that match the subject matter of your website. When you've created your articles, you submit them for publication online.

There are hundreds of article directories online whose sole purpose is to publish your content which means more and more people have the opportunity to look at your products and services.

So when you are drafting your articles, it is very important that you include a compelling link within your bio so that people can visit your site or register onto your squeeze page. You need to get into the habit of writing informative articles about the topic of your site. It is important that you offer valuable information in your articles because then your potential customer will be able to evaluate the quality of your material.

So how do you write a good, quality article?

1 - Choose a topic. This must be related to your website, so if you have a website that gives information on mobile phones, then it is important that your article looks at some aspect of the mobile phone industry. A typical topic might be how to choose the right mobile phone, the best brand for your needs or choosing the best rates for your personal requirements. Just choose a topic people ask questions about quite regularly.

2 - Writing the article. Choose a title and write the article. Once you have a title for the article, it is very, very important that the content of your article matches the title of the article. The reader has clicked your article because they found the title of the article enticing. They want to learn more.

3 - Write quality content - It is important that your article is organized. You want your article to flow naturally. Your article would be more effective if you included a list in the general body of your article, as this makes reading the article easier. So highlight five or six key points about your mobile phone, and then complete the article with a conclusion.

4 - When you are writing your article, use friendly, easy-to-read language. Do not include complicated and difficult-to-understand words. Imagine you are drinking a cup of coffee with a friend outside a coffee shop on a sunny day. Your articles should be between 350 and 450 words in length, as this is the number that most reputable directories will accept.

5 - Add a biography. This biography is very important because this is where your reader has the opportunity to click and visit your website for more information.

Article marketing is not something that you do once and sit back for the results. It is important that you write your articles often and in a systematic manner. It is time-consuming, but it is worth all the effort. Imagine in 12 weeks' time that you have dramatically increased your income by $1,000 per week. Isn't that worth writing articles for? So get started.
