How To Promote Your Affiliate Product By Using Article Marketing?
Posted by: Alan in affiliate marketing
Why some of the biggest names in affiliate marketing use articles as a core part of their promotional strategy? This is because article marketing is a proven method that can generate free life time traffic to your website. Articles are truly viral and they don’t cost you anything other than your own sweat equity.
Why articles are so powerful? How it works? Firstly, you should write an informative, useful article which relates to the product that you are promoting. In this case, you should write a review of the product which educates your readers about the features and benefits of the product to them.
The key to article marketing is doing article submission. In this case, you submit the article to article directories. A well-written and informative article will lead the readers to visit your website and find out more information about the product. This can be done by clicking the anchor text link either in your article or in the resource box.
Article directories are basically “free content” services. This means that your submitted article can be reprinted by webmasters and ezine owners in their websites and newsletters, if they pick up your article from the article directories. This is a win-win situation as the webmasters and ezine owners can find the content they need and you will get free promotion for your product. Just imagine if your article is reprinted dozens or even hundred of times, how many potential customers you can lead to visit your website. You can find a list of article directories here when you scroll down to the end of the page.
On the other hand, you may think that “I cannot write in good English, can I use article marketing to promote my product?” The answer is “Yes”. How? It can be done by outsourcing. This means that you hire somebody to write an article for you. In this case, I will recommend you to use the service of Rent A Coder. You can post a bid request at Rent A Coder and invite the “coders” to bid on your project. The “coder” is the person who will write the article for you.
Let me explain how to use the service of Rent A Coder.
- Firstly, register an account.
- Then, post your bid request. You should clearly specify your requirements in this section such as the article topic, words in length, deadline to complete the project as well as the maximum bid price.
- Then, you wait for the “coders” to bid on your project. Meanwhile, you should read the work history and resume online of the “coders”, and find out how they have been rated based on their previous projects.
- Finally, select the “coder” who you think can complete your project based on his/her work history, rating and bid price.
The advantages of using Rent A Coder :
- There is no service charges from Rent A Coder. You only pay for the bid price requested by the “coder”.
- Rent A Coder provides “Escrow” service. This service will protect you when there is a dispute between you and the “coder”, arbitration will step in and decide either the “coder” continue to complete your project as agreed or you will get refund.
Additionally, you can outsource the article submission to a “coder” if you find that it is a tedious job.
In conclusion, article marketing is a strategy that you cannot miss to use in promoting your product. Bear in mind that content is “King”, and thus a well-written and informative article definitely is an asset for your online business.
