Introducing What May be the Easiest Way to Go Viral for Marketers

Do you have a website?  How is the traffic generation coming along?  I bet that sometimes you wish that you could just sit back and relax and let someone else generate income generating traffic for you.  Well if that is your wish than a way for your wish to come true exists.  It exists and it can happen for you for free.  This is not advertising that we are talking about.  What we are talking about far outperforms paid advertising and it won’t cost anything.  What we are talking about is free article submission sites.

Article Submission is Easy


Article submission can generate traffic for you if you are a seasoned online marketer or are new to online marketing.  It is very easy to do.  You simply write an article that is relevant and helpful to your target market and add a resource box at the end of the article that contains information about you as well as a link back to your website or blog.  Most article submission sites have the resource box already in place for you.  You need only to add your personal information and a link to your site.  Once you have submitted your article with your resource box filled in you only need to wait.  Others that see your article and find it useful will be the medium that drives your article viral.

Article Fate


You might be questioning about what happens to your article once you post it to an article directory.  Well, I will tell you.  Your article would get posted to the directories website.  Website owners surf through the articles on these websites in search for content for their own sites.  If they choose your article they would publish your article on their site with the resource box, your personal information and the link back to your site, intact.  Your information and link to your site will become viewable by the visitors that visit this website.  The website that now houses your article and resource box will be doing the advertising for you.  Your job would be done.

Not a Good Writer?


Don’t worry if you think that you are not a very good writer.  You don’t have to be a good writer to get started.  It’s not as if you are trying to write an award winning novel.  You only need to write something that you think will be helpful to others.  There could never be too much helpful information.  As long as the information is helpful there will be people who would want to read it.  Don’t sit around mulling it over, just get started.  You will become better at it with time and practice.

Article Submission Wins



Do I really think that article submission is better than paid advertising?  I think that it is.  For one reason it is free and it does not get too much better than free.  Another reason is it goes viral.  Consider the following.  Let’s say that you post your article and 10 people decide to use it.  If each of these people have an audience of 2000 your article with a link to your site would then be put in front of 20,000 people.  What if 100 people decided to use your article in their newsletters and each of that 100 has an audience of 2000 or more?  Do the math.  Article marketing can be pretty powerful.  A third reason is that article marketing establishes you as an expert in the field.  People will buy from you more easily once they have had the chance to know you, trust you and like you based on the information that you supply through your articles.  A fourth reason is that once you have written many articles you can begin to compile them together into an ebook that you can give away as an incentive on your website to join your email list or that you can sell.  Paid advertising does not come close to offering the benefits that you get from when you submit articles for free.  So don’t hesitate?  Start writing articles now.
