The aim of this article is to highlight the considerable benefits of using article marketing to promote your computer home based business.
When you start the process of building a home internet business there is one key area that needs your utmost attention; however, it is also an area that far too many people pay very little attention to. This area is traffic (visitors) and the most cost effective way of getting a constant flow of them to your business website. Without these visitors, your online venture, like any other business, is destined to fail.
With a computer home based business, your first essential tool is having a web site but not just any web site. If is key that your site’s content is closely focused around the product or service that you are promoting and that the keywords around which each page is written, are profitable. By this I mean words and phrases that have a good monthly search volume but at the same time do not appear a great deal in web pages on the net. There are a number of key word research programs available on the internet which will help you with this task.
Having a well optimised web site is only one small area in the whole visitor generation process. Search engines also rank your site on how many votes (links) your site receives from other sources such as websites and directories. Search engines rank websites more favourably when they have links coming in from other quality sites with a similar topic to that of yours.
One of the best ways to build the popularity of your computer home based business is by using article marketing which is simply the writing and submitting of articles to online article directories. At the end of each article you will have a piece of information about yourself and your business (Author Bio), along with the all important link back to your website. All good article directories are categorised so that each article can be placed in the appropriate section around which the article content was based.
Article marketing is a greatly under utilized promotional method by internet business owners in general, which is surprising when you consider the benefits are so huge.
There are four principle ways in which article marketing will get visitors to your website. Firstly, once your article is written and submitted you will receive a certain amount of traffic from people reading your articles in the directories themselves. Secondly, because article directories, especially the best ones, receive a great deal of traffic in their own right, they are often highly ranked on the search engines. As a result the internet robots that spider the web will visit these sites regularly. Due to this, there is a good chance that your article will be indexed in the search engine listings, thus giving your business further exposure resulting in additional visitors. Thirdly, the top article directories all have high Google page ranks and visitor numbers and are therefore regarded as quality sites by the search engines. Because your articles are situated within these directories and link back to your website, your site’s ranking will be boosted accordingly. Again, this will lead to a higher number of visitors to your site. Finally, once your article is published within a handful of the best directories, a helpful bonus comes your way. You will begin to find your articles appear in directories that you never even submitted to. This is because many smaller directories are syndicated with the larger ones and your articles are often farmed out, giving your computer home based business even greater exposure.
When selecting the directories to submit to, above all else ensure they fit these two criteria; always opt for sites that have a high Google page rank combined with a high Alexa traffic ranking.
By writing quality, keyword focused content and submitting to a handful of the best article directories on a regular basis, you will notice a forever growing flow of traffic to your computer home based business.
