Site Promotion - How to Use Article Marketing Strategy As Free Website Promotion By Gerrald Hendrix             Free website promotion may sound too good to be true. It might even remind you of the last time you tried something for nothing. Not to worry! A well executed article marketing strategy will deliver your targeted audience right to your website door. This article will reveal the basic components of an article campaign. An overview: The concept is certainly not new. Since the invention of the printed word, messages in one form or another have been used to inform and influence the reader for some purpose. In contrast to printed media with its distribution costs, the internet now allows you to distribute your message through online articles via free article directories. Since your main objective is to move your audience to your website, your article must have a structure that both attracts and motivates the reader. Article marketing research: We will assume that you have a particular niche that is in demand. You now want to target an audience relative to your product or service. Consider the following before you write your article.   Audience demographics. Their problems or needs. The solution or benefit your product or service offers. The action they should take. Information about yourself, your company, contact information, etc. Article construction: This article will not deal with how to write an article. That information is available through an online search or an article directory help and support section. You must know though, the points above, before you can effectively utilize an article marketing strategy. The organization and clarity of all components is critical. Your author biography or resource must include a destination link to the website you are promoting. This should be a clearly defined path directly to your site or an information destination that will lead to your site. A word to the wise is to keep everything informational. Some directories have very strict guidelines and many potential customers will reject an immediate hard sell.     Adland Digest Sponsor Message For just clicking my link you will get free gift of value $24.95.

(Spot II)   Article marketing automation: Opinions differ considerably concerning automation tools. Article writing software tools may be helpful. You should expect to do considerable editing though to ensure a quality article. Original article content is always best. Who should know your market and product better than you? Additional content may be obtained for your articles from article directories but make sure to observe all terms before you use. Never plagiarize! Submission tools are not really necessary. Manual submission to the top article directories will be sufficient. Search Alexa article directory ranking for lists of top directories. Free website promotion: Your article, after it is approved by the directory, will be indexed in the search engines. It will appear in the organic search results on the left hand side. Your position, among other factors, will depend upon your keywords, their popularity and competition. If you don't have experience in keyword search, search online for free keyword tools. Quality articles, overtime, may gain links from other sites and blogs and help you rise in index position. Article promotion: Once your article is approved by an article directory, promote it on any of your appropriate blogs or websites. Many directories have widgets and RSS feeds that you can make available in as many locations as possible. Social media is also a good platform to promote your articles, as well as forums. Many people will appreciate an article over a hard sell ad. Summary: These are just a few basic insights to help you understand the value and potential of using an article marketing strategy for free website promotion. The best way to start is just to start. As you write you will improve, as you improve, you will see greater results.   About the Author: My name is Gerrald Hendrix (Jerry).
