SEO Tips-How To Improve Your SEO With Article Marketing!

I just got an email from a client who was disappointed with the amount of traffic he’s getting to his website from his Article-Marketing-SEOarticle marketing efforts.

Here’s his problem, while he’s been spending 30 minutes a week on his article marketing, he’s only getting 3% of the people back to his site who are reading his articles. ( One thing I’d like to point out here, CLEARLY this guy is sharp because he’s measuring his traffic and he knows his numbers. If you’re not doing this, you really need to start)

So here’s the thing, there is a big misconception made by business owners when it comes to article marketing ( And any SEO marketing strategy for that matter).

Just because you start submitting articles, does not mean your website will be flooded with traffic.

Now if you think this way, you’re only setting yourself up for disappointment.

You see, when it comes to SEO, you must have the “end game” in mind.

The end game is getting YOUR website to rank at the top of Google ( And the other search engines),  for whatever product or service you’re selling.

ONE way to do this is by getting back links to your website.   And it just so happens article marketing is a great way to do this but… it’s NOT going to happen overnight.

So how does article marketing help you get back-links to your website?

Easy, whenever you write an article and submit it to an article directory, you have the opportunity to add a link in the “resource box” at the bottom of your article.

The more links back to your site, the higher your website ranks in the search engines.

And hey, if a few folks find your site through one of your articles, that’s just gravy!

The article is not meant to replace YOUR website.

You see, any SEO strategy you implement ( including article marketing, press releases, videos and blogging) should be seen as a long term strategy.

Think of it this way, lets say you want to lose weight.  The way to do this is by going to the gym, lifting weights, performing your cardio and eating healthy, right?

Well if you want you website to rank higher in the search engines you have to do your article marketing, your press releases and your blogging.  It’s the same thing.

And just like losing weight, getting your website to the top of Google does NOT happen overnight either.

Now like with most things in life, there is a right way and a wrong way to go about article marketing ( And any SEO strategy for that matter). So over the next few posts, you’ll discover the right way to go about all of this and more!
