Traffic generating techniques part 3
By jeff risley on 02 April 2009

Article marketing has become very popular and for good cause. People come to the Internet for one of two reasons. They either want to buy something or they want information on something. If you provide a product and then in depth information about that product, then you are going to be helping yourself gain twice the amount of traffic for your site.

Article marketing can be used in a variety of different ways including:

Adding articles to your site for fresh content

Adding articles to a blog to drive traffic to your site

Adding articles to article directories to drive traffic to your site

It is important to remember that your articles need to have useful information in them. You also do not want your articles to be salesy and pushy. These should be informative articles that leave your readers wanting more information from you and will then cause them to want to visit your website to find out what you are all about.

Blogs

The search engines also like blogs, especially WordPress.com. This service allows you to setup as many free blogs as you want and Google loves this site. They index blogs very quickly and if you provide useful and keyword optimized content on your blog, then you are going to find that you attract a lot of attention from the search engines. Always be sure that you have a link to drive people to your actual website and you will begin generating traffic in no time. Because the popular blog suppliers are ranked high in the page rankings, everything they are associated with gets spidered and indexed as well. The search engines love the fresh new content and they hang around on blogs for extended periods of time. Plus, anything else that you have linked into your blog will get spidered as well. Every time you update your blog, you will be bumped to the top of your section for the category or tags that you have selected. If you select your tags carefully and use popular keywords, you may be receive sudden surges of traffic. You can then channel that into your product pages and the main site of your blog and website.

Another great way to get noticed is to publish your articles in article directories. These articles must be very informative. You also want them to be around 300 to 500 words. These articles should be easy to read and should have a conclusion that leaves the reader wanting to learn and read more. At the bottom of the article you will have a resource box. This is a box that tells a little bit about you and your business. It should also include a link to your website so that people can click on it and find out more about your products or services. When writing for article directories you have the option of keyword optimizing or not. Many people choose not to, but by optimizing your articles you are increasing your chances for generating traffic for that keyword. Article directories are popular and the search engines spend a lot of time indexing their information. If you are using good keywords, then your articles are going to get noticed. Also, the keywords will also be picked up by the actual directory’s search engine, which increases the chances of someone reading your article.

The top way to get traffic? Keep your visitors coming back to your site, give them reason toJ
