Guest Post by Collins Roy

Article Marketing is by far one of the best ways of making income online, getting ideas of what kind of topics to write on and then proceeding to writing the article shouldn’t take lots of time, there are lots of topics regarding making money online, whether it be SEO, blogging, affiliate marketing and a hundreds of other different topics, not preparing articles and submitting them to the appropriate directories makes you lose the huge advantage this medium offers.

I know lots of people who get articles prepared but at the end of the day, they don’t actually submit these articles, being an article writer myself, I have made lots of discoveries with people who write articles, I found out that people don’t actually know how to submit articles, it may seem a little confusing but it’s the truth.

There a whole of article directories out there and they all have guidelines that everyone has to follow. I’d advice that for every article directory you go to, read the rules that govern article submission before actually proceeding with submitting the article, that way you have a high chance of getting the article directory to accept the article.

By submitting to a whole lot of directories, you would finally get used to submission of articles, there are chances that your article might get rejected, in those kind of scenarios, go again and review the particular article directory’s guidelines, see if you missed out something, correct any discovered error and then re-submit. I always advice people, your articles should be between 400-600 words and the content should be one that captures the reader’s attention and contain valuable information, be it a product review or website review articles, make the article content be so intriguing, so as to make the reader look for more related articles on that subject, maybe from the writer of the article itself, I have had people emailing me about tips on certain articles topics I have written.

Also, article title and keywords, for the article title, don’t be so “boring”, there are lots of articles out there, the question is why should anyone click on yours? The article title is what differentiates you from the rest of the others, whatever you title you use for your article has to contain text that would make the user click on your article when given like 10 different article options.

Keywords are what individuals’ type when they looking for an article for a topic, your articles should have these keywords and also some article directories have a certain area where you could type in the keywords related to the article, make sure these keywords are relevant to the article.

An article summary is also necessary, it describes what the articles is about in just a few sentences and also the author’s resource box, information about you would be put in there, usually and also generally I always tell people not to over hype themselves in the resource box area, just put a simple summary about yourself and that is that!!!!. Your resource box should have your name and website link.

For internet and affiliate marketers, one of the best ways of promoting your products is through article marketing, it is a free source of traffic and it gives you backlinks to your site. Take advantage of article marketing now!!!!!
