Blogs are one of the fastest-growing ways to market a product or website online, and they work perfectly for business article marketing. The traditional way of using articles for marketing is to submit the articles to a number of different article directories. Those directories can accept or deny the articles, and the accepted articles are published on the directory for readers to find.

That method works well for getting readers to find the articles and for building links that raise the page rank of the site being promoted, but there are other advantages to using a blog to post your articles. Article directories may have great page rank, but they also present a lot of competition for marketers who post articles. Any subject category will have many similar articles, presenting a high competition rate that can reduce the number of people who choose your article to read.

Blog Ranking
Like Matt Bacak’s blog, any blog can be created to successfully market a business. Blogs rank very well with search engines because they are constantly being added to. Search engines like Google love to have sites that are active and that are constantly growing. They rank blogs well in search engine results, giving a marketing blog a great chance of being found by people searching for the keywords that are being used.

For many people, having a blog also gives them a way of responding directly to potential customers who have important questions. This form of business article marketing brings in people who are curious about the topic, but it also gives them a place to leave any comments about how much they like the articles and a way to contact the person who manages the blog. This personal service is a big plus to many customers, and it can be an effective marketing tool.

How to Start
The best way to begin business article marketing on a blog is to post in-depth information that will be of substantial help to the people who read it. This keeps people coming back to the blog again and again to find out more. People who are interested in the topic, who like getting the free information, and who are repeat readers, are likely to become loyal customers who are interested in learning more from the blogger. They may choose to purchase items that help them even further, making the blog a successful way to use articles to market the business.

There are many strategies to making money on the Internet, but nothing makes sense unless you have a big list. Email Marketing is the most profitable way to make money on the Internet. When you build a list of hot and hungry prospects you control your future. Discover how to use the Internet and turn your computer into a cash gushing machine.

  • I have to agree submitting articles to article directories is a great way to get targeted traffic to your site. I have combined the power of an article directory with the wordpress blogging system and this really can get you in the search engines and getting that much needed traffic.
  • Great Job!
  • I search and recently came across your blog and have been reading along. Article marketing is a cheap, easy and effective marketing tool.

  • Add all of your content/article marketing RSS feeds to your iGoogle page and check it every day for new blogs. There's almost always something you can use for inspiration. In fact, just watching a TV or print ad, or a marketing video that either worked or didn't can provide a topic for your article or blog. It's also a good way to show people unfamiliar with content and article marketing how to recognize quality content, and why it works. Thanks for the post!
  • No, thank you for contributing. Me like :-)
  • Here's some advice for people that get stuck coming up with things to write about. Follow this process and you'll be writing an article a day.

    First, subscribe to Google Alerts. You will ask to be alerted to any news that has to do with your industry. You can get those alerts via email or RSS. When you review those news alerts, some of them will cause you to form an opinion about them. Now sit down at your keyboard and write your opinion. A couple of hundred words and you have a business article! If you really hate to write, get a microphone and record yourself expressing your opinion. Them use Idictate.com to get it transcribed. After you get 2 or 3 down and you'll get into a rhythm and you will find it gets easier the more you do. And of course, the more you do, the more content you have, the more traffic you will get, the more subscribers you'll get... get the idea?
  • Ron - Dude thanks for contributing. Great stuff! Keep it up :-)
