Traffic Building - How I Use Articles to Drive Traffic to My Website
This Article Written by Sean Mize
I have to tell you this, when I first got started online I did what a lot of newbies do, I bought guaranteed traffic, and free and low cost advertising, and did lots of web directory submissions for my web site. I have bought Google Adwords advertising. I have participated in JV giveaways. I have used safelists and traffic exchanges. In short, I have done just about everything. What I have found is that not only do I get more subscribers from my articles, relative to the time I spend writing and posting, than any other source of traffic, but I also have a higher response rate from subscribers who join my list via articles than I do from any other source. So what do you have to do to use articles to drive traffic to your site? Here is what I do: I write a lot of articles - as many as 10-20 in one sitting. That might seem like a lot. But if this is the most profitable work I do online, why not write as much as my mind can hold out? Does that scare you? That many articles? It probably does. You see, it is said that the average article writer writes less than 7 articles before they quit. I write that many articles a day before I quit, some days. I try to write articles that are direct and to the point. I write about exactly what I set out to write, and just enough to get my point across. I write with a friendly tone. You see, I don’t think that you need to be stiff and have perfect grammar to be read, in fact, I think that just about the opposite is true. Keep in mind, you are not writing for a scientific journal, you are writing to a fellow person online, someone who thinks and acts a lot like you do, even if they live on the far side of the globe from you. I post my articles online. I have a few select article directories that I use, that give me as much as ten times the response of all the other article directories I have ever used, (around 100, all told). Click my link at the bottom of this article, join one of my lists, and when you receive the first email, hit ‘reply’ and send me a note asking what those article directories are, the ones that are most effective for me, and I will send you the list as soon as I get your email.
