Article Marketing Effectiveness – Has it Changed in the Last Few Years?

No Gravatar

By Sean Mize

First of all, let me say this: what I am going to write next is my personal opinion (as is probably most of the content posted on an article marketing site like this). But I want to say that right up front because I know there are many who disagree with me on what I am going to write next.

All of that to say – I understand why you might disagree – but based on my own results with article marketing over the last 4 years, what I am going to write is accurate (and it is my truthful opinion).

The reason I am writing this is that I get asked quite frequently, “has article marketing changed lately?”, or “how has article marketing changed since you began?” or recently I have heard a variation of “have your results gone down in the last few months?”.

The really funny thing is I have gotten that last question probably for the last 2 years! And my guess is that what prompts someone to ask that question is if perhaps their own results with article marketing seem to be suffering. But I have one thing to say to that: if someone has a small number of articles, or especially if they are submitting a small number of articles per month (for example, 5 or 10), it is quite natural for the article views and the article clicks associated with such a small basket of articles, to vary significantly from month to month.

You see, even in my own account, I might average 7 clicks per article (or whatever it is) – but that might mean than with 100 articles I have 700 clicks, for example – but 200 of those clicks might be from one article, another 400 from 10 of the articles, and the final 89 articles account for the final 100 clicks. Well, if I only submitted 10 articles in a month, then there is a real possibility that all the articles would be in the underperforming arena. Or there is a possibility that they might overperform as a group. So there might be lots of flexibility and variability in the performance of a small group of articles, whereas a bigger basket of articles (for example, 100 articles) might give a more consistent performance.

So now I must answer the question about article marketing changing. But first, one more thing – I do believe it has evolved some. In fact, I believe it has evolved for the better.

Because the filters both at the article directories and at the search engines have gotten much better at filtering out the copied, recopied, scraped off the web content – it really makes it so much easier for someone like me who writes, or has an assistant or professional writer write each article – to compete for keyword traffic. Because spam articles are for the most part not coming up in the search engines anymore – so in this aspect, I believe article marketing is much easier than it was 4 years ago.

So, having said that – you probably want more of my opinion!

Well, the next thing I should say is that on a per – article submitted basis – I actually get better results than I did 2, 3 years ago. Of course, that is skewed by the larger basket of accepted articles – meaning that some of my traffic comes from articles written in the past – for example, I still get traffic from articles I wrote 3-4 years ago.

So the real question is – on a per article basis, do I get the same number of average clicks per article submitted?

And best as I can tell (again, it is so hard to compare over time because other elements change, such as the resource box I use [in some cases, I use a resource box that I know will not convert as well in numbers, but converts better in terms of qualified targeted traffic]) – my articles convert just as well, if not even slightly better than they did 3-4 years ago.

Now, please let me clarify. This still doesn’t answer the core question – does article marketing itself work just as well as it did in the past. Perhaps it works better, and my results accurately reflect that. Or perhaps it doesn’t work quite as good – but my own split testing over time (yes, I split test profusely in my article marketing) has improved my own results at a greater rate than the change in the article marketing landscape all together.

My personal, private opinion is that not only is article marketing more efficient today because it is much harder for software and automated processes to hijack search engine rankings, but because I have improved in my technique over the last few years, along with massive split testing in my articles – my own results have also improved.

How to Find Your Internet Niche In 3 Quick Steps

No Gravatar

If you’re confused about niche marketing and don’t know where to start follow these 3 quick steps.
I promise you’ll find your niche. Before you dive in I have to warn you about two niche marketing mistakes 90% of the newbies out there commit.

Niche Marketing Mistake #1

Select the niche others suggest them to embrace

I’ve read countless books and tested close to a hundred info products on niche marketing and all come to one conclusion – select a market you’re passionate about.

That’s why you should never embrace a niche you don’t like just because others claim there’s money to be made in that particular industry.

Niche Marketing Mistake #2

Select a niche with few competitors

That’s BS advice! No offense, but if I were in a niche where I would not be able to team up with others and do joint ventures, ad swaps, cross-promos, guest blog posting, barters and other forms of associations, my business would die sooner than you’d think.

Want to find your Internet Marketing Niche? Take these steps now before it is too late:

Step #1

What is your hobby?

What is it that you’d enjoy doing for the next 3, 6 and even 12 months even if you weren’t get paid to do it?

That’s your niche! With a little research on Amazon.com [e.g. in the books and magazines section], you’d find that even the most obscure niches are lucrative, whether you believe it or not at the moment!

Step #2

What is your skill?

If you don’t have a hobby, you need to have a particular skill or talent, technical, creative or whatever.

Do you like writing? Do you do graphic design? Do you enjoy playing golf? Do you know how to trade Forex?

Whatever you enjoy, you’d be considered an expert in, if you start teaching others to achieve similar results as you did. No need for a diploma, or degree, unless you’re planning to get in the law or accounting niche, which is a real profession!

Step #3

What do you like reading about?

Some of the top experts and consultants out there were self-made. They did not get any school lessons but gather their knowledge from reading books and applying the information.

What is it that you enjoy to read that others would pay with their attention and money to know?

There you have it. 3 quick steps to finding your niche market.

Do you have any questions for me before you start? Post them in the comments section below:

Article Marketing Tricks Part 8 – Resource Box Secrets

Article Marketing Tricks Part 8 – Resource Box Secrets
By Jay Jennings

Article marketing is a great way to use simple little articles to drive traffic to your web site. If you’re new to the concept, this is how it works (nutshell version):

Write an article of 300-700 words that deals with a topic your target market is interested in. For example, if your target market is new parents, an article on getting babies to sleep through the night, or an article on store-bought diaper alternatives would be things new parents might care about.

At the end of the article is a paragraph that’s known as the bio box, or resource box. Many people use that to tell about the author of the article.

That’s fine for stroking your ego, but it’s the kiss of death for making sales.

Articles used for marketing purposes are a bit of a different animal than articles you might find in a magazine. They both need to be well-written, but when someone is done reading an article you’re using for marketing, you want them to take another action

…and click through to your web site.

You know the old show business adage, “Always leave them wanting more!” – that’s how you should write your articles. Don’t get me wrong, I don’t think you should just tease people in an article and then offer the real solution on your web page — you should give good value in your article.

But in a few hundred words you obviously can’t go into too much detail. And that’s where your resource box comes into play.

If your article was well-written and provided value to the reader, they will already be primed to want more information. A good resource box will give them a reason to click the link.

A bio box that says, “Jane Doe has been a parent for 14 years and is the president of Moms and Kids Play Group blah blah blah…” may build some credibility for the author, but doesn’t do anything toward the ultimate goal – getting a click to your web site.

On the other hand, if an article on getting a baby to sleep through the night ended with something like this…

“Click here to get a free copy of ‘21 Tips To Keep Your New Baby From Driving You Insane’ at Jane Doe’s New Baby Tips web site. Download your copy right away and put the tips to work for you immediately!”

…don’t you think the reader is very likely to click on that link? You bet!

Sure, as an author it’s nice to put something in there about how great you are, but do you want status or do you want sales? An article for marketing purposes is a “direct response” type of ad which means we want the reader to RESPOND after reading the article.

And that means making sure there’s a great reason for the reader to click that link and get to the web site where we can then go for the sale. It’s been said that article marketing is a “give and take” process — the body of the article is your “give,” and the bio box is your “take.”

Make sure what you’ve given to the reader has enough value that they’re chomping at the bit to click on the link in your take. Using a resource box that gets the click is the difference between just writing articles, and real article marketing.

Website Traffic – The Best Set it and Forget it Strategy You Can Use in Your Niche Market
By Jason Nyback

When it comes to getting visitors to your site you are probably looking to use traffic strategies that will give you visitors on total autopilot. In this article I want to show you the best set it and forget it strategy that you can use in your niche market that will give you the most amount of visitors possible.

Getting Traffic From Other Websites In Your Niche!

You have to realize that if you can profitably get other websites in your niche to give you traffic, you will make a lot of money on total autopilot.

The reason that this works so well is because once you get your ad on a site in your niche and it makes you a profit, you have nothing left to do but watch that ad and make sure it keeps working for you.

Once you get one working for you, it allows you to leverage the income you are making from so you can get your ad on another site in your niche.

It does not take long until you will have hundreds of ads on sites all through out your market making you money.

And if you do it the right way and start small, you will be able to build a great base that will allow you to have an automated system that will work for you for years to come.

The most important thing you need to do is to make sure you start out small so you can make a profit off of a few sites… Once you can prove to yourself that it will work, then start rolling it out to all the rest of the sites in your niche.

The Death of the Link Wheel – Don’t Waste Your Time With Link Wheel Building

The Death of the Link Wheel – Don’t Waste Your Time With Link Wheel Building
By Kenza V Long

As we all know traffic is what can make or brake a website or campaign. Traffic is the holy grail in the internet world and those that can drive traffic make the most money. There have been many different techniques in getting more traffic to websites but over time these methods lose their effectiveness as search engines get wiser and wiser to these traffic building techniques. In this article I am going to show you why link wheels are dead and at the end give you the key on how to get traffic in 2010

Back in 2009 there was a powerful concept called link wheels, link wheels were used to boost search engine rankings. How this works is by having 5 or so blogs powered by high Pr platforms like Blogger, WordPress, Hubpages and the use of some article directories. Then you would create articles on each platform and have them linking to each other, then you would have all of the blogging platforms point to your money page. Last but not least you would then book mark all of your pages.

Wow this method was awesome as Google started boosting the money pages up the Google ranking. The reason for this was because of all the powerful blogging platforms that were linking to the money page.

But then something happened by mid to late 2009 Google got wise and started to de-index these sorts of link wheels. Overnight marketers saw their money pages wiped from Google. So what am I saying? well basically Google spiders can trace where website links go, if they all start linking to each other the spider disregards the links and my not index the page.

The final nail in the coffin for link wheels was that some of the high ranking article directories and blogging platforms got wise to the fact that they were being used and abused by marketers. So many of these directories and blogging platforms have tightened up. One example is that you cannot put links on your posts when using WordPress unless you have posted five pieces of content and on hub pages it’s two.

There have been a few variations of the link wheel method like the URL Wheel and the Images Wheel but as soon as Google gets wise to the new variation it will delete all you hard work in a flash

There are a few linking methods that still work but there are also many easier ways to get links that do not involve all this link wheeling hard work.

Article Marketing Tricks #7 – Targeting the Buzz

Article Marketing Tricks #7 – Targeting the Buzz
By Jay Jennings

Here’s the 7th secret to making article marketing pay off for you, I call it Targeting the Buzz.

This technique requires you to make regular visits to the forums where your target market hangs out. The problem with that is it can become a real time sink — there are thousands of people who spend so much time interacting in the forums that they never actually build their internet marketing business.

Targetting the Buzz is a great technique, but be aware of that potential problem so you can avoid it.

No matter whether you’re hanging out in marketing forums, racing forums, or dog training forums, certain topics of conversation kind of take on a life of their own. Some new strategy comes along and it seems that’s all people are talking about for weeks or even month at a time.

Eventually it kind of dies down, often because some other topic is taking it’s place and becoming all everybody talks about.

Here’s the Secret

Whatever the buzz is that’s happening in a forum, that’s what you target with a new set of articles.

Then when someone asks a question that’s answered in one of your articles, mention that you’ve written an article that answers that and provide a link to the article.

At the bottom of the article you can either have a pitch for your product, or an opt-in page. I think this technique is actually better suited to build your list rather than sell a product, but either one will work.

If your article answered their question, offer 3 or 4 more articles that give more information on that topic if they opt in to your list. You’ll find the opt-in rate in a situation like this is far above what you’d normally get.

And, once they’re on your list then you can pitch a product that’s in line with the topic. If you go straight for the sale you won’t have any way to follow up with them afterwards.

More Than A List Builder

There’s another benefit with this technique than just building your list — although that’s a gold mine right there. Since you’re an active participant in the forum, and you continually provide the members with good, free content in the form of articles, you’re going to gain a reputation that will serve you well in the future.

Start testing this technique right away — in the forum where you usually hang out, is there some topic of interest that’s been building? Does it seem like everyone’s talking about it? Sit down and write a few articles giving some good, detailed answers to the most frequently asked questions. Then, watch for people asking questions that — at least mostly — are answered in your article and post a link!

You may be thinking that the questions being asked have already been answered and so there’s no desire for an article. However, if you notice, new people come in and ask the same questions over and over again — someone has to answer them, so it may as well be you.

Plus, most posts written in forums aren’t as thorough as an article, so your “version” of the answer has some good value added built in.

Give it a shot — start targeting the buzz and see how that type of article marketing can really help build your list.

There’s more to article marketing than most people think.

Starting a Web Business – How to Attract Internet Traffic

Starting a Web Business – How to Attract Internet Traffic
By John Demusz

Many want an Internet business but few know how to go about starting one. It takes a plan, know-how and unyielding perseverance to make it all happen. If you have the above, then it’s time to get started.

The hardest part of starting a web business is not learning all the technical parts, it’s getting someone to even see your beautiful website in the first place. You have to find someone that’s interested in what you’re promoting. Once you master this part of the business you will attract Internet traffic and you will be set.

One way to get free traffic is to give something of value away. It has to be something to do with your line of business and be very useful for your visitor to take it. But how do you even get anyone to know that you’re giving away something valuable?

I would suggest article writing as your first step. It’s one way of getting the word out that won’t cost you and there’s no limit to how high you can go. It depends on how much you want to write.

You can also attract Internet traffic by paying for it, but I suggest you wait on this one until you really know what you’re doing. Be patient, work at it and you will be in business free and clear.

A web business can be the most rewarding in both money and job satisfaction. It’s quite a thrill to see your website up for all the world to see, but it’s even more of a thrill to see your first Internet money.

If you figure on it taking six months before your web business makes decent money, you won’t be disappointed.

Internet Marketing Tools – Are Podcasts Worth All the Effort?

Internet Marketing Tools – Are Podcasts Worth All the Effort?
By Fakhra Anwer

The peeling of Apple’s iPod broke all the records of the digital world. Use of Internet had become THE necessity for youth. Therefore, in 2004, the big dogs of internet fashioned an amalgam of portable playlists and internet (known as podcasting) which was another terrific addition to the toolkit of Internet Marketing.

A podcast is your talking blog and users can subscribe to it through RSS feeds where they receive the podcasts automatically. You don’t have to own an IPod to create your podcast. In fact, it’s just an audio file that you record on your computer. However, it’s not as simple as it sounds. Creating a podcast is a tiring process. At first, you have to identify your niche and narrow it down. Then, you need to plan out your speech i.e. what all you’re going to talk about. Finally, you record your speech, maybe, a hundred times before you get an appealing podcast. After you have recorded the podcast, you have to host it just like you host your websites. The host looks for RSS feeds and get audience to listen to your recordings.

Though, the real question is: Are podcasts worth all this effort? I believe that they are the most effective marketing tools there have ever been. In an era of change within change, the voice has and will always have the deepest impact on people. By creating your podcasts, you have your very own online radio show where you can talk to people about anything relating you, your business or your corporation.

The use of internet is limited but when we talk about iPods, they can be used anytime, anywhere. Whether you’re working in your cubical or jogging in the park; you can listen to your IPod everywhere. Now, you can do the math and get an idea about how many people may “listen” to your talking blog. If you sound lively and energetic, you can easily gain your listener’s attention and they are more likely to make a purchase at your store or whatever action you are asking them for because they will eventually start falling for your product/service.

iTunes, the leading resource of podcasts, is becoming more popular each day. Millions of people search iTunes everyday looking for exactly what you offer. Moreover, there’s not much competition for your business on iTunes as it is on search engines because not many people are even acquainted with the term podcasting.

Above all, it’s the best way to build relationships. Your convincing tone represents the strength and capabilities of your products/services. At times, people would even rate your product/service by judging your podcast’s eminence. The reason is that if you sound confident and professional, you are perceived as an expert in your field.

So, what are you waiting for? Grab this startling opportunity right away and make your very own podcast. Who knows? Your podcast may take your business to the boulevard of success.

Using Podcasts To Generate Leads

No Gravatar


Using Podcasts to Generate Leads
By Keith Smiley

Podcasting is another technology that many business-to-business marketers are starting to use to generate leads. A podcast is an audio show mp3 file that can be downloaded from a web page either directly or by RSS feeds. A podcast is like a radio talk show. Instead of listening to your radio, you listen to a podcast on an mp3 player on your computer.

How can I use a podcast to generate leads you might ask? By using them to boost conversions on white paper downloads.

A podcast can be used as a teaser for a more in-depth white paper. Your podcast can be as short as 5 minutes or as long as 30 minutes.

Your podcast can be used to discuss a few things that are in your white paper such as problems your prospects may be having and how your product or service can solve them. Don’t give them all the problems and solutions in your podcast. Leave them wanting more information that can only be answered by downloading your white paper. In order for them to get the information have them provide their e-mail address before they can download your white paper. This way, you can follow up with them and ask them if they have any questions about your white paper or what was said in your podcast.

If they are not ready to buy from you at that moment, you can still e-mail them as often as you like, send them your e-newsletter, new product announcement, etc.

Podcasts can also be a part of your ezines. You can send audio messages along with your written e-newsletters. These podcasts within an ezine can just be a simple “message from the editor” or a Q & A interview type podcast.

You can also use your podcast for client testimonials. Nothing is more powerful then having one of your satisfied clients raving about your products.

If your company has a lot of industry knowledge, a podcast is an excellent way to generate qualified leads. If your products help businesses save money or manage productivity why not use a podcast to promote your knowledge. As I stated earlier you could use a podcast as a teaser for a more in-depth white paper or even a case study.

Podcasts can also be used to announce an upcoming webcast, seminar, or speaking engagement.

If you’re a business-to-business marketer, you should seriously consider podcasting as part of your marketing mix. Marketers who produce relevant and highly targeted information will have the most success with podcasting.
