Article Marketers Headquarters

Articles are everywhere. Everybody reads them. But how can an article help you promote your business? Here are seven reasons why you should be using articles in your online business, no matter what you're selling.

1. Establish yourself as an expert.
Writing articles really helps to further establish your expertise online. One thing that all experts have in common is that they have written something – articles, books, reports, etc. Writing articles is your first step to becoming a well-known expert in your field.

2. Build Your List of Subscribers.
To increase the number of your newsletter subscribers, use the resource box at the end of your articles to drive more traffic to your blog or newsletter subscription page. This is one of the most effective ways to use articles to promote your business.

3. Connect With More Prospects.
The articles you submit to the article directories, are picked up and reprinted by other writers and marketers and included in their web sites and blogs. More people will be exposed to your articles, which means more targeted prospects. And that translates into more sales and profits for you.

4. Increase Quality One-Way Backlinks to Your Site. Since your article resource box at the end of your articles includes links back to your site, you'll get numerous one-way links pointing back to your site when your article is published by other website owners. And readers can now follow these links back to your website.

5. Improve Rankings With The Search Engines. Links that point back to your web site will greatly improve your search engine rankings. They will also get you more traffic from the search engines. That's because the search engines place more weight on one-way links than they do on reciprocal links.

6. Connect With a Bigger Section of Your Target Market. As you get more and more of your articles published on different websites and blogs, you'll be able to connect with target market segments, that you wouldn't have been able to reach on your own.

7. Put More Money in Your Pocket. The bottom line to all your article marketing efforts is making money. Even though you're not getting paid directly for your writing, your articles will result in a gold mine -- your subscriber list. .

So your mission, should you decide to accept, is to start writing and start making some money. A good article marketing strategy will build your list and sell more products and services online -- not matter what business you're in.
