Your previous articles you've posted on your sites could be building traffic or building e-mail lists for you much faster if you learn to submit articles to article directories regularly.
Distributing your latest articles to the top online article directories exposes your new articles to a large potential audience, both at the article directories and on other people's blogs if they use your interesting articles as posts. Popular articles can be one of the biggest sources of targeted traffic, thus helping you build opt-in lists and build targeted traffic.
And really, this
article marketing strategy only makes sense. Most people begin by looking for information, and Internet articles are one of the first source of new information. Every day thousands of new articles are added online, through article directories, blogs, Web 2.0 sites and similar sites.
So before adding those new articles to your blog, go to the best group of directories and post your articles, taking care to make sure the Author's Resource Box leads back to your blog or squeeze page so that you're building targeted traffic that's aimed at building your opt-in list and your blog audience simultaneously.
Be sure your new articles contain helpful content - attempting to create an article just for it's backlink value is a basic blunder, since getting prospects to your submitted articles is only half the battle. The intent is to get them absorbed in your articles' content, show yourself as an authority on the topic, and motivate them to take action and go to your opt-in form or your blog. That requires both valuable information in your article AND solid, relevant material on your landing page.
One of the reasons that this system builds opt-in lists so well is that the person wants information on a topic, sees your article and then sees your link to additional info. Build your traffic generation from your efforts by giving a free report, audio or video on the same point to those who sign up. This way the interested party gets what they desire, while you're building traffic and building opt-in lists.
