Article Writing; a Great Way to Promote your Website

By: Daniel Z. Kane

Article writing is a fast, simple way to promote your website and increase its search engine rankings. All you have to do is write a few articles, send them to some of the hundreds of article distibution websites, and wait for website owners to use them on their sites.

There are three related benefits that accrue to article writers. First, as people continue to see their name on articles, they begin to think of them as authorities. Many very successful business people have built their reputations by writing frequent articles.

Benefit number two is that article readers will click on the link in the author's box, resulting in immediate, increased traffic to his or her website.

The most important reason to write and distribute articles, however, is that each time a webmaster adds one of your articles to their site you pick up another link. And, the more links there are to your site, the higher your search engine ranking in Google, Yahoo, and MSN. And, if webmasters with sites on the same subject as yours carry your articles, the links you will get from their sites can be especially valuable in improving your search engine rankings. That is why it is important to write articles related to the subject of your website, although articles on any subject can be somewhat helpful in raising the profile of your site.

Remember, the link to your site will come from the author's box which will appear at the bottom of your article, so write the author's box copy carefully. The article box below is a good example because it includes my name, a little information about me, and text links using the keywords which bring the greatest number of visitors to my sites.

To write successful articles...articles other webmasters will want to add to their sites, here are a few hints.

1. Write "how to" articles; articles with practical information.

2. Be certain your title creates interest.

3. Proofread. Spelling, grammatical, and punctuation errors are the kiss of death. Webmasters do not wish to add articles filled with errors to their sites.

4. Be succinct. People are much more likely to read brief articles.

5. Know your audience and teach them something they'll want to learn about.

Don't get discouraged if all of your articles aren't picked up by hundreds of sites. The more you write the more you will learn about what kinds of articles are most likely to be well received. So, stay at it and you will almost surely be rewarded for your efforts.
