First I will go over article writing methods and then article promotion strategies.
Article writing: Step one- Create a title for your article. You can get the title for your article writing by going to adwords.google.com/select/KeywordToolExternal. The green lines shows the competition for that keyword and the other green line shows the search volume. Pick the smallest green line to start with.
Article writing: Step two- Create your introduction. In article writing your introduction should tell the reader what your article is about. The introduction should also point out benefits to be derived by the reader should they decide to read the rest of the article. Your introduction is for “bullet” points also known as teasers to arouse the readers interest to read the rest of the article.
Article writing: Step three- Create the body of the article. This is the section to go into detail about the main topic of the article. Be creative and have a flow that can easily be followed. By now you have the reader’s attention and your goal is to keep going to the conclusion and your resource box which is your final call to action is located.
Article writing: Step four- Your conclusion must summarize the benefits in the body of your article into one short paragraph. Your conclusion must be good enough to make the reader want to find out more information your website by clicking on the link in your resource box. The resource box is simply the section that let the reader know your brief background and skills and your website URL.
Marketing an internet business by writing an article will not be complete without an effective article promotion strategy. Your unique article now needs to be submitted to article distribution directories. The key is to get your article into thousands of websites that needs content. The websites that use your article also agree to display your resource box with your website URL. Now when the search engines see your website URL on so many other websites based on a certain keyword your internet business will start getting a share of visitors seeking information about that specific keyword. The top article distribution directories from my experience are Articlesdynamic.com, EzineArticles.com, Articlesinsync.com, and Articledashboard.com. After submitting to these four directories, you can also submit to other lesser known directories. In about a week or two types in the title of your article in Google or yahoo and see how many websites are displaying your article to the World Wide Web.
Article writing and article promotion can be an effective strategy to use in marketing an internet business. Be concise and give the reader what information they seek and a large percentage will visit your website giving you the opportunity to sell them your products or you can make money when they click on the Google ads displayed on your site. The key is to get visitors to your site and what happens after that is full of limitless possibilities.

Internet Marketing – The 10 Keys to Success
March 18th, 2010
There are so many factors determining your success in internet marketing, so much to think about, but as with many jobs there are some basic principles to apply to internet marketing which will substantially help you along the way. Follow these and it will make life a lot easier!
The 10 basic keys
1. Mindset – This is probably the most important key, which ironically most people do not apply! The way you think determines the way you act, and the way you act determines what you actually do, so the importance of a positive mindset cannot be stressed enough to make sure what you actually do is successful!
2. Taking action – You have a great mindset, that’s great, but if you just sit doing nothing with it then nothing is ever going to happen! It’s about applying what you know effectively, to make internet marketing work for you.
3. Educate yourself – Hard as it may be, you have to treat internet marketing as being at school! There is so much to know, a phenomenal amount, and you need to keep yourself educated along the track, whether it be through your mentor or e-books etc.
4. Planning – It’s just the same as planning a route, if you don’t plan you go the wrong way, if you plan you get to your destination! Setting goals for yourself is so important, you can then measure how you are getting on and make sure your going in the right direction.
5. Consistency – Whatever is getting you results, you must stay consistent with what you’re doing. If something is working for you and you stop doing that, then the inevitable is going to happen!
6. Perseverance – Life has its ups and downs, but you can’t quit! No-one succeeds on their first attempt in trying something, so try again and again until you can make it work. Stick with what you’re doing, don’t give up!
7. Time management – You need to balance your day between your activities, you can’t do everything, there aren’t enough hours in the day! Even though it is hard you must create a balance in what you are doing.
8. Personal responsibility – You are responsible for your success, you are the one who will determine your success, it’s all down to you! There is no ’shortcut’ or ‘easy’ way to success, you need to put in some hard work to get there.
9. Patience – Everything takes time, if something isn’t working straight away don’t panic. Just give it time, many people fail because they don’t give tings enough time!
10. Testing – Keep track of what is doing well and what is not doing so well for you. Keep trying new ideas – or repeat the ones that are doing well for you!
With that said, when you are next trying a new form of advertising or even an existing form of advertising, try applying these simple principles, see if it makes a difference for you!
