================== ARTICLE START ==================
Article syndication is the process of submitting your written
articles to different content websites. The purpose of doing
this is to gain exposure for yourself and your business. You
gain exposure when a webmaster likes your article and publishes
it on their website. In doing so the webmaster is giving you
free publicity by presenting you as an authority on the subject
of your article.
The article will generally get placed on a higher traffic
webpage on the site where the visitors can read and learn from
it. It is required by the content publishing company that the
webmaster leave your 'Author Bio' information attached to the
article, which will effectively advertise you and your chosen
website. This non-reciprocal link from your published article
to your website serves multiple purposes. One it makes your
website more popular in the eyes of the Google algorithm and
two it drives targeted traffic to your website. The traffic is
targeted because the person who just read your article is
clicking on your link; this is done generally because he/she is
interested in you and/or your business.
If done effectively, article writing and syndication can do
wonders for your business. The usefulness of articles doesn�t
stop at the benefits listed above. If you tailor your article
correctly you can have it reach top rankings in Google and
create multiple instant sales.
To achieve this you must learn a few things about Google and
article syndication. If you don�t already know, the new Google
algorithm "Orion" highly favors content over any other forms of
advertising. The days of doorway pages, splash pages and landing
pages are over, so naturally content driven websites and
articles will begin to make their way to the top of the Google
rankings.
The key to getting your article to the top is by targeting
certain keyword phrases. You don�t want to target the most used
and most popular keyword phrases, instead you want to target
less used keyword phrases. What you want to do is look for
phrases that only have from 500 - 1500 results in Google.
To start you can research phrases with a handy little tool
located here:
http://inventory.overture.com/d/searchinventory/suggestion/
This tool will allow you to input a popular keyword phrase and
it will give you a list of related keyword phrases. You can use
this to find keyword phrases that gets about 500 - 1000 queries
per month. After you find a few good keyword phrase candidates,
you can go to Google and check the current number of results. To
do this you simply type the keyword phrase in "quotes" and
Google will return the number of results for that particular
phrase. Remember you are looking for anywhere between 500 and
1500 results.
Once you have your targeted keyword phrase, its time to write
your new article. Of course your article will be based on the
keyword phrase you are targeting and not only that but the
title of the article will need to have the keyword phrase in
it. Ill say that again, your article title needs to have the
keyword phrase that you are targeting in it, preferably word
for word.
Many people are lazy and are not going to write articles and
that�s ok, but those people should definitely invest in a good
ghost writing company to write their article for them. I use
JustArticles and a special niche club in addition to writing my
own articles.
Once you have your article or articles written, now its time to
syndicate them to as many content sites as possible. You can do
this by hand or with special software, I prefer to use the
software (article submitter pro) because I can syndicate to
about 700 sites in a few days instead of a few weeks. If you
choose to syndicate by hand you can get a huge list of article
directories through this link:
http://www.plug-in-home-business.com/freestuff.html
Simply following the instructions above will do wonders for
your business, by getting your article published with your
website link at the bottom. However, we are going to take this
a few steps further to maximize our profit.
The secret is to embed links in your article body which point
to products that you are selling. Not just any products will
do, you should have products that directly relates to the
article subject matter.
You can NOT embed links on every article directory site. You
must read each article site's 'submission guidelines' before
attempting to put in any live links in the body of your
article, otherwise your article will not get approved. Some
sites only allow text, some only allow certain types of html
code, others allow 3 links in the body and still others do not
allow affiliate links at all, so you have to read what you can
and can not do. My advice is to submit your article no matter
what, weather it has the links it or not.
The fact is most submission sites state that affiliate links
are not allowed however they do allow you to link to your own
site which can then redirect them to your affiliate product. If
you have a website you need to make some redirect links, if you
do not have a website then you can use usfreeads.com and
redirect (checkbox) through the classified add that you would
setup for each product.
To setup a redirect link simply follow the directions at this
website:
http://www.macalester.edu/its/docs/howto/urlredirect/
You will need one redirect (name.html) page for each affiliate
product that you are selling. Now its time to insert the links
into your article using the a href="" tag to embed the link in
a word. Be sure to save your article as a simple text file
before you begin to code. It is a good idea to have a few
different versions of your article on hand for each article
directory. I usually save a text version, a light (3 links)
html version, a heavy (
