Increase Your Traffic

Not so long ago I had read an article in this area a female who dramatically increased her page ranking from article submissions on her new website.

That was a fact I already knew, just like many other Internet Marketers. But, that article was the inspiration I needed to make some changes with my daily business lifestyle.

Since I started studying the changes in my online traffic, the effects on adding content to your website and the change in search engine rankings, I’ve learned the importance of writing what you know and sharing it with others on the Internet.

I by no means took submitting and writing articles on a consistent basis too seriously when I first started my home based business. Part of the reason was because I was not confident enough to share what I knew with others.

Sure I posted a few articles, but I by no means posted those articles to as many directories and ezines that would accept my article.

Now before you go in this area thinking it might NOT be necessary to write an article periodically, take a look at some of the facts I have full more seriously and learned as a result of posting articles online.

10 Benefits Of Submitting Articles Online:

1. Posting an article online has more of a dramatic affect than one might reckon for your home based business. Posting articles online builds the needed momentum of website traffic in the form of increased popularity and other sites linking to your site. All of those sites linking to you are one way links!

2. As you start to submit more articles to more directories, your list of places for submitting articles will keep expanding.

3. Submitting to websites regularly will add more popularity to your website. This is the simplest way to improved your link popularity as well as your increased website traffic.

4. Most directories usually will let you include a resource box with your name and your website link with your article. Your website address will be found each time a name reads your article, making more one way links to your site.

5. Most article directory websites pile submitted articles in their archives. Since the search engine spiders like content, these sites are crawled often. This means YOU will benefit from the traffic and hyperlinks from each of your archived articles on their website.

6. The more articles you consistently write and distribute, the more you will become known as an expert for your home based business. The more you provide informative articles, your business will be given extra credibility which will help you to compete against your struggle.

7. The more exposure your articles get for you, the more you will see your content screening up all over the Internet. Increasing the level of awareness and popularity builds credibility. Increased credibility may lead to requests to write other articles and improved sales of your manufactured goods or service.

8. The more articles that you submit to major article directories, the more likely your content will be used for wider publication. The main reason this occurs is because many newsletter and ezine publishers like to use article directories to search for excellent quality content for their articles.

9. Adding content that is useful for both the readers and to the search engines will increse your website’s popularity. By posting your articles in well loved directories, you are more likely to be chosen for a featured article in a newsletter and have several webmasters republish your article on their website.

10. If you have a blog or RSS syndication, you should submit your articles written in your blog to article directories. The most overlooked source of traffic for a blog is through article submission. You can turn your longer posts into articles and submit them to ezines or directories.

In summary, make sure each article is written to inform and appeal to the reader, so that they are getting useful information from you. Once you start writing articles, be systematic in this area submitting new ones on a regular basis so they built momentum.

You will find the articles already posted have been hard at work because they are free advertising from other people to post on their web sites. In months to come, you will start getting the traffic and attention you’d been wishing for.
