Article Marketing How to Create a Steady Stream of Traffic to Your Website

Article marketing is, and has been for some time now, my primary method of traffic generation. Why?

When I first got started online, I tried out a number of different ways to generate traffic. All the usual suspects: guaranteed traffic of all sorts, advertising traffic of all sorts, and even referral traffic.

But what I was also doing was submitting articles for the purpose of gaining backlinks to increase my search engine rankings.

One thing that happened was that I got the desired search engine rankings.

But what also happened is that I found I was getting far more traffic from the articles I was posting than I was getting from all the other traffic sources combined!

This was really exciting to me, so I immediately began testing different article directories to see which produced the very best results for me. And of course in the process, I continued to get more and more traffic from the article writing.

So I decided to stop any other forms of traffic generation, and spend the bulk of my time writing articles. And it has well paid off.

So how do you do it?

1) Write articles that are related to your web site topic.

2) Add a bio to the end of your articles that includes a link back to your web site.

3) Give people a reason to click on that link, for example, a free ebook or free information.

4) Send your articles to the biggest article directories on the web. My testing has shown that only the very few biggest directories are really worth your time in the traffic they send.

5) Get started today!

Article Marketing And List Building - How to Combine Them

Article Marketing And List Building How to Combine Them

Two of the most effective methods of building an online business are article marketing and list building.

Use article marketing to drive traffic, and use list building to leverage your traffic for as long as you have a list.

It really is that simple.

You simply write articles, submit them to the various online article directories, then send the traffic from the articles to your squeeze page (you list building page).

The article writing and submission (article marketing) creates the first effort traffic.

Then the list building creates second effort traffic.

Second effort traffic? Yes, I said that correctly. Second effort traffic. This is all the backend traffic that you get when you send emails out to the original visitors who came to your web site via the article marketing.

This allows you to leverage your traffic in extremely powerful ways.

You see, the article marketing creates the first visitor.

Then that visitor opts into your email list.

Then you send that visitor a series of emails that endears that subscriber to you you build a relationship with that visitor.

Then you send that visitor to your web site againand againand againleveraging your traffic to create many times the amount of traffic your visitor would have created the first time they went to your web site.

This is the power of article marketing and list building. Used together, they can really create a lot of traffic the article marketing first, to the squeeze page, and the list building traffic, to your sales pages.
