Reach 10,000 to 500,000 targeted buyers every day Online. That's the best reason
I know. Get exposure for contacts, customers or clients. The second best reason
is that it's free. You subscribe to ezines, then submit your short Online articles
to your audience. The third reason is that it takes little time to accomplish,
maybe 9 hours a week. If you don't want to do it yourself, you can delegate
it to your computer assistant.
Six More Reasons to Write an Article
1. Writing articles bring free publicity. When you submit to 10 opt-in ezine
publishers and 10-20 Web sites that want your articles, you expose yourself
to thousands, even millions if you get your information on the right site. Submitting
them is free, free, free.
2. Submitting articles is 7 times as effective as any other promotion because
when you submit many articles, you become known as an expert. These articles
with their proper signature box at the bottom bring 10-50 new subscribers each
time for you own ezine. This box also attracts people to your Web site, where,
if you have proper copywriting with marketing pizzazz, you will sell many products
and services.
Start writing two or so, keep them until you have ten to submit. Then write
one a week. When you have submitted 20 or so, you will become a household name.
Ezine subscribers and sites will publish them People who visit the site or read
the ezine will also ask you if it's OK they use your article. Of course it is!
They will send your articles to their business associates, who, if they produce
an ezine or have a Web site, will also publish your article. Make your articles
250-800 words long. Or, write tips under 500 words.
Author's Tip: Be sure to send a thank you each time someone emails you saying
they want to publish your article. Respond to each one first, thanking them,
then asking for permission to add their email to your ePublishers email list.
Offer the benefit that it's straight to their email door. Ask for a return email
with "Yes, ePub" in the signature line. Add their name to your growing
list. I know have 150. To these I send out a new article once or twice a week.
That's what is called viral marketing.
3. You receive global attention when other Web masters feature your articles.
Because you have to list key words and an introduction for each article for
the Web sites, your rank goes way up in the search engines. You book coach's
is # 2 on Google, Yahoo and 35 others. Her URL is listed on 900 other sites
in a hyperlink bringing hundreds of new visitors.
4. The more exposure your articles get, the more you are perceived as the expert
in your field, and when potential clients visit your site, they are more likely
to read your sales message on your service or products--and eventually buy!
5. Your articles could attract authors in your field who need free material
for their book. Debbie Allen, shameless promoter, took three of mine for her
latest Internet marketing book. She is a great promoter, so I know my articles
will bring me new business eventually through word of mouth.
6. Remember, people go the net to get free information. If you give that freely,
they are more apt to become clients. Remember also, that because other Web site
owners and ezine publishers don't write only their own articles, they are constantly
looking for your how-to articles. You can be published in hundreds of them!
