In the time before the Internet, marketing using articles was an effective method for promoting products and services. The need for well written articles and newsletters has exploded with the new online options that include newsletters, ezines, and web sites. Due to this marketing with articles has grown in popularity.
The practice of providing good-written contents to epublishers and websites for the exchange of a blurb about the authors contact information and business is said to be as article marketing. The business owners website is normally included as a link by these "bios".
Offering your own content for publishing is essentially the same as obtaining free advertising spots on web sites across the globe. Being able to target the correct market, and keep costs to an absolute minimum creates an excellent and efficient method of business communication.
E-mail campaigns used to generate leads commonly one result in a response rate of 1% whereas marketing via articles is targeting an audience eager to read. The article readers have either signed up on the web site or decided to receive the newsletter. This audience wants to receive this information and is more apt to visit the author's site to find out more information.
An article will only be published if there is an established group of potential buyers already ready to read it. Readers seek out good content articles and you can use good articles as an chance to promote related products and services. Think about your other option. If you were to buy a database of comparably active leads you would pay considerably more! By taking just a small amount of time to write an article you've already provided all the investment needed.
Business owners can up their conversion rates even more by providing a link to specific bits of information in the author's bio. Instead of linking to the home page, authors can include a link to an external article hosted on their own site that provides more detail on the topic at hand. Visitors are more likely to search for specific information in addition to what is provided on the initial page.
A further improvement to conversion rates can be made by providing an email address that readers can contact to subscribe to the author's newsletter or website. It is best to make this action as simple as possible to increase the chances of readers opting in. Then an auto-responder can send automated messages to those who've signed up that point out certain features of the author's website they might be interested in.
The first thing some company's think about it, how can I draw more customers to my site. And then they try and figure out how to succeed. When this happens it will not happen over night. It may take some time for the site to get a lot of hits, but when it does, the company will have more business that they probably will know what to do with. - 16089
