Some Article Marketing Tips To Help Your Affiliate Marketing Business

If you are just starting with affiliate marketing and you are probably cautious with your marketing budget. To be honest with you, that is totally normal. And if you are looking for something to promote your business that won’t cost you much money, you will want to give article marketing a look.

However, before you start writing an article, you have to be clear of its purpose. If you are merely writing to post on websites or article directories, you probably won’t see much result from your article marketing effort.

Your article has to be,

• Easy to read and understand
• Valuable information
• Draw attention

So, how do you start article marketing?

1. Keywords

The reason you put keywords into your article is so that your article can turn up in the search engine result page (SERP) when prospects put in keywords in the search engines. When you use the right keywords, your article will turn up high in the SERP and that can really help to bring in traffic to your business.

However, getting the right keywords to write for your article is getting more and more challenging nowadays. So, avoid targeting general keywords in your article.

Let's say you are affiliate for dog training (this used to be a hot niche last time. I am not sure whether they still teach you to start from there or not). You will see many websites turn up when you Google for "dog training". So, logic tells you that this is a very competitive keyword. As someone who just started with the business, you MUST avoid it.

In that case, you probably want to try "training for German Sheppard" or "dog training at Hawaii". Try to add something specific in your keywords.

A Quick Tip About Keyword Research

Go to freekeywords.wordtracker, key in the general keywords for your niche, look at the list and use the keywords that are at lower part of the list. They generally are less competitive.

2. Quality content

What do you expect from an article?

Quality content isn't it?

I have seen too many articles where the content has no relation to the title or the summary. Many writers give very general information and sometime you will wonder what you have learnt after reading the article.

These writers caught your attention with the title and hopefully you will stick with their article and click on their link at the resource box. Let me tell you this, it doesn't work. You are only annoying your readers. If you are serious to make money with affiliate marketing through article marketing, I sincerely hope you can write with integrity.

Even though many affiliate marketing newbie are intimidated by writing their own article, again, that is totally normal. No one was born to write. Many good writers practice their writings and they became good at it. Well, I also run into writer block sometime. Still, the more I write, the faster I can break out of it. You can too.

So, start writing today and good luck.
