2. It is easy to win a race and be on top but the same
saying does not go with keeping yourself at the top.
Having a head start in the business of Article Marketing
would require dedication and skill. Aside from
persevering in the market, you must be in the know of
what makes other article marketers fail and devise of
ways to avoid it.
3. Failure in article marketing is not new. Many have tried
and many were beat. Where did they go wrong?
Perhaps, they had the wrong audiences targeted. Maybe
they didn’t make articles that were good enough. There
are a lot of reasons. However, when businesses fail in
Article Marketing, several crucial factors can be
pinpointed.
4. The greatest evil in Article Marketing is plagiarism. The
issue has long been addressed but hasn’t been avoided
as well as it should have been. Let it be known that
plagiarism is illegal worldwide and several technologies
have been created to quickly identify plagiarized work.
Subsequently, if your article is found to be plagiarized,
search engines would give you a low rank, hence traffic
to your site will be minimized. To some extent, your
articles and other entries may be deleted and you will
not benefit as much from your endeavor, or worse, not
benefit at all.
5. There are surefire ways to avoid plagiarism. If you want
to write an article about a certain topic, you start of by
researching for common contents. The most favored site
for research is of course, through the Internet. Once you
have found the articles you want to use, instead of
copying and pasting them on your empty document
right away, take time to read the article first. Make sure
you understand what the articles say, highlight point s
you agree with and want to address in your own article.
You may also want to bullet or summarize the article you
have read. In this way, it is ensured that you won’t have
a plagiarized product. The next step would be to write in
your own words, what you
6. have understood from the research you’ve done. Do
incorporate the important facts you’ve discovered in the
articles that you’ve read but make sure that they are still
written in your own words.
7. In Article Marketing, originality may just very well lead
you to success. This is because search engines that
analyze your work and find no discrepancies with
regards to plagiarism or duplication then the rank they
will give you would be higher. What is the advantage of
a higher rank? Not only will it generate traffic, it would
also lower the cost of the pay-per-click of your article or
website.
8. Another factor that usually leads to failure in the
domain of Article Marketing is the failure to write
enough articles of interest. Many of those who start out
in Article Marketing usually begin with just a few articles
and think that that is it. But it is not it, because a few
articles would not accomplish a name or even a
reputation for your business. You have to write as many
articles as you can. Though tiring, it is very well worth it.
9. The job of having to write articles may be made easy by
writing topics of your own interest. Choose products to
advertise whose interests are similar to your own and
who you know so much about. The greater the interest
and the greater the body of knowledge you hold for one
particular topic, and then there will be no limit to what
you can write.
10. Failure of your articles to be exposed would also result
to the failure of your business. If you do not expose your
articles to as many consumers as possible, your bank
account would not change a cent. The lesser consumers
you have, the lesser your rank will be and you will be
lost among other business in line for Article Marketing.
You will have to work hard for your articles to be
circulated. This can be done through article directories,
link partners, forum sites, newsletters, the approaches
are not at all limited, what with the capacity of the Web
to reach different audiences. If the means are not
limited, then you should not limit yourself as well.
Explore what other ways can ensure
11. the distribution of your articles, this just has to be done
in order to survive in the business.
12. Frankly the most important factor of all that lead to
most business fading out in the area of Article Marketing
is the failure to stay long in the race. Many have
succeeded, so why should followers fail? Longevity is
one factor that will contribute to the success you will
experience in Article Marketing. Let’s face the facts,
traffic is generated for a period of time and may even go
as long as years to wait. Profits would depend on the
traffic you generate, as your traffic steadily increases,
your profit would also steadily increase.
13. Like any other business, whether online or outside the
World Wide Web, much has to be invested in order for it
to succeed. If you are willing to work hard and have faith
in what you do, then you have a greater chance of
avoiding these pitfalls in Article Marketing.
