2nd In A Series: Blogging For Profit-Article Marketing: The First Way To Get Traffic To Your Blog

This is my second article on blogging for profit. In my last article, Blogging For Profit, I discussed how blogging could be used to generate a crazy income. This article is going to concentrate on taking your blog to the next level. I am going to discuss the first FREE technique to direct traffic to your blog, Article Marketing.

Article Sites:After you get your blog up and running and are ready for traffic, the easiest way to generate traffic to your blog is to write articles (much the same way I am doing here). There are literally hundreds of FREE article sites. Some of my favorites are www.goarticles.com, www.ezinearticles.com, www.amazines.com, www.articlesbase.com, and www.articledashborad.com, just to name a few.

Compose: Open up a Microsoft word document (or other publishing software of your choice) on your computer and begin your article. This is an important step, as you will ultimately want to publish your article on several of the article sites above. Having a word document will allow you to copy and paste your article to these sites with great ease. Use correct grammar and spelling. Make your article “looks professional”. By following these minor (and obvious) points, your article becomes much more credible.

Title and Body Of Your Article: Once you find your niche, pick an area of interest where you have some expertise. Put yourself in the position of your reader. What would they be interested in? What concern would they have that you might be able to address? There are a couple of keys to get your article clicked on. You need to come up with a title that would catch your reader’s interest. Again I refer back to the statement that you need to concentrate on finding a concern or solution to a problem and build your title around that concept. Use the keywords (discussed in my previous article) in the title and in the first paragraph. This will help your article move up in the search engines ranking.

The Summary Paragraph: End your article with a hint of mystery. People like to be led to the “next step.” This is where you also have your link back to your blog (more on how to create a “click able link” in my next article). This link is how you get people to visit your blog so it is important that when a person clicks on your link it actually goes to your blog (this is an important step and is often over looked until it is too late).

Finally, the biggest obstacle of blogging is to just get started. Even if you have never written a single thing,start by writing what ever is on your mind and soon you will soon be blogging your way to profits. My next article will address how to add a clickable link to your article. Until then, take a look at a couple of my blogs:
