You may already know how effective writing articles for web
promotion can be. If not, don't dismiss it as trivial or overdone.
The fact is, web site promotion using well written targeted
articles WORKS! Educating your prospect to the benefits of
using your product makes them an even better prospect.
This key to effective promotional articles focuses on educating
the reader, not selling them a product. Give them useful advice
that they can use, and tell them how their business would
benefit from using your product or service.
Since you may not have prior experience writing promotional
articles, here is a free 3-part report I put together to outline
the process I use to produce effective articles for my web
site promotion: http://www.kenleonardjr.com/write
This tutorial also describes how to format your articles
for publication online using my favorite text editor, UltraEdit.
By the time you finish reading, you will know exactly how
to write and format an effective article to use to promote
your product on the web and via email.
If you can't write to save your life, all is not lost. There
are many ghostwriting services online that will write an article
for you on any subject you want. The best part is that the
article then belongs to you, your by-line and copyright, the
whole enchilada. These services are relatively cheap, so don't
let your lack of writing skills stop you from promoting your
website using articles. You can even submit your articles
to print newsletters and publications for added exposure.
As you submit your articles to more and more web sites and
announcement groups, the more the traffic created by your
article will be multiplied by. If your article can produce
10 hits to your website per day, the same article published
on 20 websites or in 20 newsletters can produce 200 hits a
day to that site. And that's just one article.
Read the report at the link above, it includes quality sites
to submit your articles to for no cost web site promotion.
Writing articles requires an investment of time and effort
on your part, but will produce results worth many times your
investment. The trick to getting started writing articles
is to do just that, get started.
Your first one may not be the greatest, but practice will
make a writer out of you. So don't think that you'll just
skip this method of web promotion, that would be a big mistake.
Get started writing articles now, or find that ghost writer
that will produce promotional articles for you at a good price.
Once you see the results, you'll wish that you had started
writing articles sooner. You'll see.
To see for yourself the results I've had writing articles
as part of my web site promotion plan, do a search for "Ken
Leonard Jr." in quotes on Google. At last check, your
search would return around 10,000 results.
You can do the same with practice. But you have to start
