How to Write a GOOD article for Internet Marketing

You can simplify the process of article writing and writing a good article that will be in demand by following some simple procedures. Knowledge about your topic/subject matter is important as well as knowing what the best competitors for your topic are writing. Never copy someone elses work but use it as a 'ruler' as to what works within the article you will write and add information to it. The more webmasters who copy your work to their site, the more backlinks to your website you will receive

Everyone leads you to believe you can just sit down at your computer or with pen and paper and write some information about your website and that is an article. If you look at a local newspaper, do you suppose that is what the author/reporter did? No. Is the author/reporter selling anything? No. We are in a highly competitive world and alot of research has been done to create that article. Yes, you are not a reporter or author (probably). Yes, you may not have a bunch of employees helping you conduct your research. But, guess what? You do have access to information that can help you conduct a little research to create a popular article. Your goal is to create an article that a lot of people will want to read or know about.

 

Let's pretend you know nothing about your subject/topic to begin with. So where do we start. The first things we MUST know is 'what is the topic or subject matter?' Since your final goal is to get people to go to a specific website as a result of reading your article, you need to get the keywords for that website. If you do not know what the keywords are, most of the time you can view the keywords by going to the website and right clicking on the website in the lop left area of the site and when you see the 'pop up', click on 'source'. The keywords should be listed before the /head tag you see on the page. Now take each keyword individually, one at a time, research the first keyword so you can learn information about your topic. Wiki.com and Wikipedia.com are good sites for this most of the time but you will find that, most of the time, you will need much more information than what they offer so next go to the google search engine and enter your keyword. You will be surprised how much and how quickly you will learn about your topic.

 

But wait. That's not an article yet. Now we will go to a couple of the most popular article directories to learn more. To simplify this process, again go to the google search engine and enter 'article directories'. Now search your keyword for articles written about this topic (keyword). Most directories will also show how many times the article has been either viewed or copied. This information is very important for you. Choose the most popular articles and read them. DO NOT COPY THEM. However, you can create your own article somewhat similar to the most popular article and to make it even better than theirs, within your research you either discovered something unique, different, more details or maybe even have ideas of your own you can share showing you know the subject and you are writing to help people.

 

Your article is not a sales tool. You are not selling anything that was on the website only sharing information and maybe even just letting people know how to do something. The keyword can be used sparodically a couple times within your article, if it is appropriate. Most directories allow you to add your keywords at the time you post your article. This whole process can be done in less than a day leaving the rest of your time free to submit your article to directories. Since your basic goal with your article is to get webmasters to copy your article along with your link to their website, by following this process you should have a great article and now only have to submit it to the right directories. Do not over-submit. Article submitting is a topic in itself. Happy article creating!!
