Creating Articles To Build Targeted Traffic Or Draw Opt-In Lists!
Your previous articles you've posted on your blogs could be building traffic and building e-mail lists for you much quicker if you start to submit articles to article directories regularly.
Posting your best articles to the prime online article repositories exposes your new articles to a huge potential audience, both at the article directories and on other people's sites if they use your interesting articles as content. 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 best source of new information. Every day thousands of new articles are published online, through article directories, blogs, Web 2.0 sites and the like.
So before posting those new articles to your blog, go to the best group of directories and submit your articles, being careful 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 readership at the same time.
Ensure your new articles are full of high-value content - attempting to write an article just for it's backlink value is a popular blunder, since getting prospects to your submitted articles is only half the battle. The intent is to get them absorbed in your articles' message, show yourself as an authority on the topic, and get them to take action and go to your opt-in form or your blog. That needs both powerful information in your article AND solid, relevant information on the landing page.
One of the reasons that this solution builds opt-in lists so fast is that the prospect wants tips on a subject, reads your article and then sees your link to additional information. Magnify your traffic generation from your articles by offering a bonus report, audio or video on the same issue to prospects who sign up. This way the interested party gets what they are after, while you're building traffic and building opt-in lists.
