‘How To’ articles are in great demand and they have the added benefit of establishing you as an expert

Everybody is an expert to someone on something. YOU have specialized knowledge that your reader wants and needs.

The How To article is probably one of the easiest kind of articles to write. Once you decide on your topic, simply make a list of the steps, then write an informative article that your readers will find easy to understand and implement. If you do this well, it will build their confidence in your knowledge and ability. The more you demonstrate your knowledge and expertise, the more likely they are to think of you when they need services and products like yours. 

Make your how to article easy to read

When you are writing your How To Article, present your instructions in sequential steps. Step 1, Step 2, … it will help your reader to see exactly what the steps are and make them easy to follow.

 How To articles are as easy to write as writing a list. When you write your article in list form makes it easier for your reader to skim and follow, the easier your article is to read and understand, the better.

How To articles are so easy to write

Start by writing down the main steps and use that as an outline for your article. Once you’ve listed the steps, go back and write one or two sentences for each step. The article will almost write itself. Write simply, write as if you are talking someone through the steps.

Your target market are actually searching for How To information.

• How to check out a hoax
• How to tie a tie
• How to start a business
• How to get more clients
• How to get more vistors to your website
• How to stop your dog barking
• How to write a resume
• How to survive depression
• How to get rid of cold sores…

The easiest way to persuade Google to visit your site and rank it higher in the search engines is to write how to articles on topics that your target market are actually searchng for. Search engines are looking for the best possible answer to a question. Make sure your site gives the best answer and Google will love you.

Your target market is looking for helpful information, so write How To articles, show them how to do something and demonstrate that you have what they need.

Once you’ve written your How To articles, you need to get your articles to as many sites as possible. For information on how to distribute your articles to hundreds of targeted publishers with the click of a button, go to http://lynnelee.com/articlemarketer

If you’re building a website, or writing a blog or posting articles to article directories for traffic and backlinks, you need a lot of quality articles to be effective. It can be time-consuming trying to research and write lots of articles by yourself. You can hire writers at Elance but the results aren’t always what you hoped and it can work out expensive. PLR content can help you to write more articles, quickly.

When you buy PLR articles you buy the rights to use the articles in any way you like. You can post the PLR content to your website or blog or use the PLR articles to create a special report that you can sell or give away for free to boost the size of your subscriber list. You could also create an e-course from the articles and use the e-course as another way to grow your subscriber list.

PLR articles, are a useful, cost effective way to add interesting, search engine friendly content to your website.

If you need a lot of articles, PLR is a useful shortcut

There are websites that provide well researched private label rights articles that are well written. These membership sites enable you to acquire hundreds of PLR articles without breaking the bank. They are a bargain for the quality of article you get. 

If you want to avoid using articles that thousands of other sites are using, I recommend using membership sites where the number of users is limited, and that you make sure you give the articles a different title and rewrite them a little to make them unique to you.

If you use PLR membership sites, I strongly recommend that you re-write the articles

You need to tweak the articles and optimize them to help search engines find them and give them a better chance of being ranked on the first pages of search engine results. Spend a little time making your articles unique.

If you use PLR articles it’s best to use them as a springboard for your own writing. The more original your article becomes, the more likely you are to have good results.

If you take time to edit private label rights articles, you’ll be way ahead of people who leave the articles untouched or just write a brief introduction and add a short comment at the end.

You could give the articles a new title and rewrite up to 40% of the article content or just use the articles for inspiration and totally rewrite them. Choose whatever will help you the most.

Using PLR articles is easier than writing articles from scratch

You’ll find that using PLR articles is much easier than writing lots of new articles from scratch, it takes less time to improve existing articles. Try it and see for yourself.

Don’t be tempted to skimp on quality for the sake of quantity. Make sure you give your readers good information and they will subscribe to your blog feed and return to read further articles. They might also recommend your articles to other people and link to them from their website or blog.

What about duplicate content?

If you follow the guidelines in my article and give your articles a different title and rewrite them a little you have nothing to be concerned about.

However, if you buy PLR articles and use them without making changes, your articles won’t be accepted by article directories and probably won’t be indexed by the search engines

Search engines are looking for unique content, so make your article unique by giving them a new title and rewriting them.

Where to find good sources of PLR articles

Nicheology

The site provides lots of details, instructions and a forum for members. This is a brilliant site with lots of products in the rough, video training and help to make a success of affiliate marketing. I belong to this one and highly recommend it.

Article Underground

If you want your web pages to get more free search engine traffic, the articles at article underground are keyword optimized to help you build website traffic fast. Mike Liebner provides some excellent training too.
 
Niche Content

There are 440 niche articles a month, in each group and membership in each group is limited to 200 people to minimise competition.

Food articles, recipes and special reports

If you’re looking for food articles, Wendy Cook will provide you with 30 new food articles, 30 new recipes, 5 product reviews, and a 5 to 10 page special report each month. You can use the special report as an incentive for people to join your mailing list or sell it for a low fee to get people to demonstrate buying behaviour.

A reminder of what you can do with PLR articles

• Change the content in any way you like to suit your needs
• Create  new, original articles
• Build backlinks to your website, very important for SEO
• Build keyword-rich content websites
• Use several articles to create an ebook or ecourse
• Compile a special report for your visitors
• Rewrite the articles and add links to promote affiliate products
• Create audio
• Claim authorship
• Position yourself as an expert

You can do anything you like with them and claim authorship, that’s the beauty of PLR articles

A strategy for writing lots of articles quickly

Create a list of bullet points before you start 

The bullets will form the outline of your article. If you write a quick outline before you actually write the article, the article will almost write itself.

Once you have your outline, you just need too write two or three sentences for each bullet point. Creating an outline before you start will help you to keep on topic and fulfil the promise of the article title.

Give your article a powerful headline

Your headline needs to be keyword rich and promise a benefit. Target the keywords you want to rank highly for in the search engines and include the keyword phrase in your title.

When you are writing a lot of articles it’s a good idea to target variations of your main keyword phrases and branch out to subtopics that will be of interest to your niche.

Focus

Close Twitter and email, and resist the temptation to have the TV on in the background. The key to writing a lot of articles quickly is to set writing goals and stay focused.

When people search online, they use what are known as keywords to find the information they want. Different people use different keywords to search for the same thing. One person looking for information to help them get on the first page in search engine listings might type in ‘how to get on first page of google’, another might type ‘top search engine rankings’.

They are both looking for the same information, but using different search terms known as keywords, each keyword phrase gives a different set of results.

When you are writing articles it is important not to guess at the keywords your target market will use. Do thorough keyword research and make sure you put your keywords where the search engines like to see them.

Please don’t skip these steps. If you want your articles to appear on the first page of search engine results keyword research and proper keyword placement are vital.

How Does Article Marketing Help With SEO?

Article marketing is an effective way of directing targeted traffic to your website and a way of getting links to your website from the article directories and other websites and blogs. You get links to your site by writing articles and submitting them to article directories. You get even more links when webmasters publish your article complete with author’s resource box on their site.

Your articles need to use the keywords being used to search for information and they need to provide useful information. Your article acts as a marketing agent and needs to to give enough good information to persuade your reader to click on your link in the article resource box.

Aim to send your readers to a page on your site that provides the information they want, don’t just send them to the home page. You can send them to your home page if it’s relevant, but it’s best to get back-links to pages deep on your site.

Search engines list individual web pages, so each article or each page of your website can have a first page listing. The more articles you write, the more opportunities you have of getting on the first page of Google and getting your website found.

The combination of SEO and article marketing is very powerful and will help you to get good search engine listings quickly. When you learn how to use article marketing and search engine optimization together, you will be able to drive lots of free targeted traffic to your site.

If you enjoy writing articles and have dreamed about writing as a career, it’s worth looking into ghostwriting. Ghostwriting is writing books, articles, blogposts and other content anonymously for a client. The client gets theright to put their name as author and publish the writing as their own.

Side Note: If you know what ghostwriting is and you already know it’s something you want to pursue, I recommend you go and pick up a copy of Just Add Sweat’s “How to Become a Ghostwriter” Guide. It shows you exactly what you need to know to get started as a ghost writer.

But if you’re new to the idea of becoming a ghostwriter, let’s continue…

What skills do you need to be a ghost writer?

Excellent Writing Skills: To be a ghostwriter, you need to be able to write well.

• Your writing should flow
• You need the ability to cover topics thoroughly
• You need to be able to capture your client’s unique voice in your writing

Research Skills: As a ghostwriter, you will be responsible for finding and processing all of the information that you need to be able to write on a specific topic.

Grammar & Spelling: It might seem obvious, but it’s important to note. All of your work as a ghostwriter must be free of grammar and
spelling errors.

Many different types of businesses and individuals use ghostwriting services. Authors, business executives, celebrities,  and others sometimes need ghostwriters to write books for them. Online business owners, blog publishers and websites hire writers to create articles and other
content. Information product sellers look to ghostwriters to write how-to and other instructional guides. There are lots of opportunities to be hired as a ghost writer.

There are many things you can do to get ahead in this field, and the How to Become a Ghostwriter Guide covers them in depth.

Here are a few ideas to get you started:

Start building a resume that will get you noticed. Highlight your writing experience.  If you don’t have any, you could offer to do a few free or low priced small projects to build your portfolio. Approach a non-profit business or someone that you know who might need writing services.

Decide which topics you are qualified to write about. Although many ghostwriters are well-rounded and can write on most researchable topics, having a specialty can help you to get work. For example, you might have special knowledge of health, finance or parenting topics. Use this to your advantage.

Have relevant samples readily available to showcase your writing skills. Most  clients are more concerned with how well you write than the amount of experience you’ve had.

To get more help, get a copy of Just Add Sweat’s “How to Become a Ghostwriter” Guide. It will help you discover if ghostwriting is right
for you, how to break into the business, service rates and much more.

Ghostwriting can be a competitive, but there is plenty of room for new writers.  This guide will show you how to ge started. Go to JustAddSweat for all the details.

Content is king. It gets to wear the crown. And sit on the throne. And rule the world. When it comes to establishing credibility, gaining trust and producing sales, content is royalty.

While I would never suggest abandoning the concept of delivering high quality content to your subscribers, there is another type of list composed of subscribers who couldn’t care less about content.

“What is this type of list?”  The “announcement list”.

I’ve been teaching about the “announcement” list since at least 2002 (on record at an event). And, yet, it’s a widely untapped asset in most email marketing circles.

The main reason is: nobody’s teaching it. And so, nobody knows anything about it, let alone how to effectively create one of these lists.

So, we’re going to revisit it.

What Is An “Announcement” List?

DEFINED: An announcement list is a list whose sole purpose is to “announce” (I.E. Inform, notify) when something new is available for review, consumption or purchase.

In other words, it unapologetically says, “Hey, I just released XYZ. Come check it out!”

Now, at first glance you may be thinking, “Who would join a list that offers no content and only sales pitch?”

If you say it that way, it doesn’t sound too good to me either! That’s why you don’t say it that way. Let’s take a look at HOW to “say it”…

How About An Example “Announcement” List?

If you go to this site you’ll find a textbook example of this concept. PLRSO stands for “Private Label Rights Special Offers” I established this list for the sole purpose of informing people anytime I have a new PLR offer available for them to buy.

That’s it.

I don’t send out ezine articles to them. No newsletters. They don’t get blog posts. There aren’t any special reports. No content of any kind. What they get, in essence, are sales messages.

And there are already 2,822 subscribers, many of which have already purchased some of the PLR special offers that have been “announced” to the list.

Why does it work? Let me give you plenty of reasons…

1. I took something that was “in-demand” (PLR) and I allow people to get a head-start on the world by knowing about new releases FIRST by joining this list.
2. It’s not billed as an “announcement list”, but rather a “Free PLR Club”. Big, big difference in perception.
3. It has it’s own domain name, further adding to the perceived value and importance to those who join.
4. There is no requirement to buy once you join. Buy the offers that you want, pass on the ones you don’t want.
5. A cost example is provided to show what you can buy immediately, further illustrating the value of the complimentary “membership”.

And here’s the big twist that makes this idea of creating an “announcement” list a complete no-brainer…I allow my affiliates to “give away” no cost memberships to the PLRSO club!

When someone they refer buys one of the offers, they earn a commission. And I get other people to promote and build my list for me. We all win.

So, you may be thinking…

What Kind Of “Announcement” List can I Build?

There are a wide variety of “announcement” lists that you can build. Let’s briefly look at ten of them…

PLR List. You can swipe my idea and create a list of private label rights buyers.

• New Offers List. Build a list of people who love your work and want to be notified any time you have a new offer available.
• Pre-Launch List. Create buzz and anticipation for an upcoming new product release by building a pre-launch list several weeks (even months) in advance.
• Ezine Publishers List. Build a list of publishers who want to know any time you have a new ezine article that is available for reprint in their ezines.
• Bloggers List. Another idea is to allow bloggers who are looking for ready-made content to post to their blogs.
• Industry News List. How about becoming the “go to” guy or gal to share breaking news about your industry?
• Joint Venture List. Develop a list of partners and affiliates who are ready to promote anytime you have a new offer.
• Incentives List. Here’s a great idea - create a list of people who you offer “incentives” to when they purchase someone else’s new product through YOUR affiliate link.
• Freebie List. Regularly give away rebrandable content (reports, articles, videos, etc.) to these subscribers to earn commissions.

While all ten of these lists aren’t necessarily “buyers” up front, they each can certainly lead to buyers and revenue for you if you implement them.

Content is king. But let’s not forget that there are alot of queens, princes, dukes and earls out there too.

Successful article marketers talk about how much traffic they get from articles and tell you that they’re dominating search engine rankings with their articles, and if they know what they’re doing, it may be true, but remember that they didn’t get those results overnight. It is easy to drive traffic to your website using article marketing but don’t expect masses of traffic immediately, it takes time, and submitting just one article won’t get you the results you’re looking for.

How many articles do I need to write and submit?

Almost anyone can use article marketing as a tool to get more visitors to their site. You don’t need to be an SEO expert or a techi. You just need to be able to write informative, helpful articles that answer questions that people are asking, and submit your articles to article directories regularly.

I suggest you aim to write and submit at least one article each week. One article a week is a minimum, you will get better results more quickly if you write more articles. Writing more articles isn’t as difficult as you think. You will  find that you can write more articles quickly once you get into the habit of writing. Try setting yourself a challenge of writing 1 article each day for the next 30 days, you might surprise yourself.

If you’d like to discover article writing techniques designed to help you write more articles quickly, I recommend How To Write Articles Quickly

If you are serious about using articles marketing to drive quality traffic to your site, you really need to find the time to write at least one article a week; if you submit at least one article a week to article directories , you will begin to see great results, and the more articles you submit, the more visitors you will get.

How long will it be before I see results from article marketing?

You can expect to see some increase in visitor numbers almost immediately, and when you start submitting 4 -30 articles a month, you can expect to see a significant increase in visitor numbers within 3 months. Much depends on how well you target keywords, how many articles you submit, how quickly your articles are indexed by the search engines and how quickly your articles get to the first page of search results. Seriously consider investing in Article Marketing Stars if you want to see quick results in the search engines.

A word of warning

Don’t submit one or two articles, and then say, “this isn’t working!” If you want to see significant results you need to write and submit articles regularly.

How can I tell whether article marketing is working?

These are the main ways to measure your article marketing results:

• increased traffic to your website
• an increase in backlinks to your site
• increase in PageRank (be patient, Google only updates this every 3 months)
• better search engine ranking for your keyword

You won’t see massive changes right away, but the more articles you get out there, the more ways you will have of getting traffic to your site and creating an ever increasing number of back links. 

Article marketing is an effective way to build links and drive traffic to your website, so persevere, the rewards are worth the effort.

Many effective article marketers use an article submission service to save time and increase article exposure. Article Marketer will submit your articles to hundreds of article directories at the click of a button.

Now, go do some keyword research and write and submit some articles.
