This will also give you and your business extra credibility which will help you competes against your competitors.

Internet Article Marketing On Steroids

Writen by Daegan Smith

Such articles and their attached resource boxes can be referred to as article marketing, and such an advertising strategy is beloved by search engines. The changing content of e-zines makes them current and updated, and their varied selection of keywords and articles can make them useful for anyone doing research. Thus, articles can be viewed by a good number of people from all over the world.

Are you good at a craft? Do you know more than anyone about a certain subject? Have you been actively involved in research? Then get the word out on yourself! Article marketing is the best way to get future writing, research, and even speaking gigs; advertise your home based business and get paid after more and more people learn about you; and, of course, earn money!

Now imagine if you could write dozens and dozens of articles! Article marketing is a lucrative business if you do it right.

Put article marketing on steroids, and you might have for yourself a very productive cash cow.

Now how to milk the cash cow? Follow the Top Ten Rules for Article Marketing faithfully, and you could find yourself a Net Celebrity in no time.

1. Follow submission guidelines, such as when you should submit your article, in what format you should send it, and if you should provide the publishers a copy of your resume. If you don't follow the rules at the onset, publishers will not trust you for future work, and your article will be deleted even before it's been read.

2. Format your article properly. Use a text editor to write your article, such as Note Pad. This will allow publishers to copy and paste your article directly to a web page if they like it. Remember: make your bosses' lives easier and you will be rewarded.

3. The article is the star, not you. Although your first motive is to advertise yourself, remember that the means to that advertisement is a skillfully written, informative article.

Your byline should be no more than five or six lines, and should contain the most vital information about you. This will include your name, profession, e-mail address, and web address, if you have one.

4. Start your article off invitingly, with a descriptive, intriguing title, and an attention-catching first paragraph. Readers will take 15 seconds or less to determine whether they should go on and read your article to the end, so catch them first hand.

Remember, your byline is at the end of the article, so lead your readers there!

5. Check your grammar and spelling! Don't be sloppy with your words. If your rhetoric can't hold water, how do you expect publishers to trust you with facts? It may seem petty, but your grammar and spelling matter, so use spell check, and edit your article.

6. Publishers are after quality content, so write your article with the sincere desire to inform. Don't write a sales letter, or you will turn both publishers and readers away. Make your language simple: readers don't want to read the next James Joyce or Norman Mailer. They simply want to do their research, so help them out.

7. Avoid referring to an affiliate website. Your article will appear biased, and you will appear as though you know nothing about your topic.

8. Keep your paragraphs down to two or three short sentences, so that there are more empty spaces for your readers' eyes to rest. Use techniques, such as bulleting or numbering, to separate your facts.

9. Keep it short and sweet. Your article should be between 500-750 words, with lots of whitespace.

10. Promote it! Once you've edited your article and made it e-friendly and brain-feeding, look for publishers who might be interested in it. You can post your articles on your website, or submit them to article announcement groups online.

Now imagine how many 750-word articles you can write. Practice your craft. Do a little more research. Get the word out on yourself!

Pump your writing with steroids and watch your bylines storm the search engines – your abilities, after all, deserve the fame.

Creating And Publishing Your Own Ezine

Writen by Ken Mathie

Now that you understand the benefits of offering your own Ezine newsletter and you have decided that you want to do just that, the next thing you need to know is just how to go about doing this. Creating and publishing your own Ezine or newsletter is not a cut and dried "one way to do it" kind of thing. There are many options available to you from the very simple to the very complex. We will cover a few of your options, though this list is by no means extensive. But you will get the idea.

An Ezine can be as simple as sending your subscribers a single email. It doesn't have to be formatted in any fancy way and can be delivered by a simple auto responding service. While these type of Ezines are not much to look at, if they contain content that is relevant and people find interesting, they're not going to care that it's a simple email letter. They'll wait with bated breath for each issue. As for the auto responder itself, you can either get an outside service to send these out for you or get your own list server. The downside to getting a service is that you have to put up with them including their ads in your Ezine. The plus side is that they handle all the opt-in and opt-out procedures. By getting your own list server you have to take care of everything yourself. For beginners, it's probably better to have somebody handle your Ezine mailings for you.

Moving up from the simple email newsletter, you can actually publish an Ezine that can be quite fancy looking. This can be done either in HTML form or PDF format. In either case your Ezine can contain some serious graphics as well as multiple sections. Some Ezines are as complex as real world magazines, containing sections for different articles on several topics and maybe a few ads sprinkled throughout. You want to keep the advertising to a minimum or your Ezine will look like one big sales pitch. You want your Ezine to be content over ads.

When actually creating your Ezine, if you're the artistic type, you can create the look of it from scratch with your own custom graphics, logos, etc. If you're not that artistic, you can go online and get ready made templates to use. There are some places you can go to get free templates but you get what you pay for. The free templates aren't going to look all that great and most likely many people are using them. Your Ezine is not going to stand out. Buying a template will at least bring you up to the next level as not as many people will be using them and you'll have a lot to choose from. Your best bet though is to create your Ezine from scratch, giving it just the right look.

Once you've created your own Ezine format, the next step is to actually get some content for it. That will be the focus of our next article.
