How to use article markeitng properly

Why is Article Marketing so important?

Article Marketing is one of the cornerstones of your Internet marketing efforts because it allows you to establish yourself as an expert in your field.

This applies to all forms of content creation such as Articles, Podcasts and Videos.

Article creation and submission of those articles to article directories is one of the oldest forms of Internet Marketing.

Article directory submission list.

We will start with one of the oldest and most respected Article directories.
I always start our article submissions with Ezinearticles first then after they are all approved I can post it to one or two other directories. After this you can then submit or post the articles to your blog, website, or social network.

Ezinearticles is still very respected by the search engines and they are one of 3-5 you should invest the time to manually submit to.

DUPLICATE CONTENT issues.
This is a big question for people.
So we start off and we write a 100% unique and informative article lets say on Article directory submission.

What should you do first?
This is what I suggest.
1. Submit to Ezine articles
2. After it is approved modify and lengthen the article Post to your main website ping the engines and social media/bookmarking sites. (I use Pingmyblog and Ping.fm)
3. Add the article to any free blogs you might have.
4. Using the article create a Squidoo lens or Hubpage or both. If you can modify the article again while keeping the core points do so.
5. Take this article especially if it is a “How to” and put it into a Future interview questions folder. You will be seeking out experts in your niche and also networking with people who can interview you in the future.
6. Can this article be a future video? If so put the article into your future videos folder.

The key point is one article with a small amount of effort can be used multiple times and also form the outline for future content creation. Now we have written, Podcast, and Video.

One thing I really like about Ezinearticles is that they have taken the time to create How to videos so please watch the videos and write some articles then you will start to get traffic to your website.

The beauty is once your reach Platinum author status you can submit as many articles for as many websites as you like.

Enjoy the videos and start writing and submitting articles.
