Five Tips Moms Can Use to Save Time and Make Money with Article Marketing
Guest Blogger, Denise Willms
When you’re a mom making money from home, you don’t have a lot of extra cash or time to market your business on the internet. Ad space can be expensive. Getting quality links to your website can take weeks. And convincing other people that your product or service can help them – that can take months of consistent effort.
Article marketing is a simple way to advertise your business, get quality links, and earn people’s trust… all or free.
Here are five tips you can use to write articles that market your business, develop backlinks and win customers:
-
Before you write a single word, get to know your target market. If you know exactly who you’re writing for, and what they need help with, writing articles that solve their problems will be a lot easier.
-
Remember, you don’t have to have all the answers. You don’t need to be a guru to write an article that can help someone else. Just share what you do know.
-
Add some good keywords to your article title, your first sentence, and to the body of your article. More readers will find your article if you included the keyword phrases they’re searching for. You can research keywords using a free tool like www.freekeywords.wordtracker.com
-
Be sure to include your name and an active link to your website in your author’s resource box. Write out the full URL, including the http:// . That way, if someone reprints a text version of your article, the link will still remain active.
-
Publish your article in places where members of your target market spend their time. Submit it to niche directories, their favorite websites, blogs and newsletters. Publishers are always looking for new content their readers will enjoy reading.
When you consistently write and publish articles that help your target market, over time you will get more website traffic and win more customers. Best of all, you will have more time and money to spend on more important things, like your family.
