2. This article will guide you through the main reasons you
should be using article writing as part of your SEO efforts
to gain backlinks and link popularity, or in other words,
turning content into link s and traffic. Getting targeted
traffic is a direct result of this process. This will apply to
both new and existing sites, and I am covering here what
to do when writing articles.
4. You should focus on known topics that pertain to your
target market. As your articles are informative, you can
submit them to article directories and websites accepting
new content and articles that publish similar ones to what
yours is about. You can get strong referrals from articles
that were submitted using article databases. Keep writing
2-3 articles weekly, making sure they are getting
submitted at similar rates.
6. Splitting articles into parts is a great way to make a
subject easier to digest by topics and having your visitors
follow them by series. It does also help when you take an
article for review and you add your comments in different
color or bold them. Printable versions are an important
addition to the original format of your articles, highly
appreciated by users, and does not fall into duplicate
content penalties at all.
8. Use linking within your article to expand information
sources or further detail topics. Reference pages, news
sources, forums, bog posts, are example of resources you
can offer and the user can choose to follow if needed.
Now, it is equally important that your links are well
defined and easy to spot by using standards when
possible.
10. It is important to create titles and headings that relate to
what the article is about. Also, try to keep the article
length to no more than 500 words, written with simple
language, and providing clear and useful information.
Always impart concrete knowledge to your readers. You
should focus on the most important points in the
topic, outlining the key areas of it. To do this, you can use
headings, bold type and lists, like in the case of this
particular article.
11. There is a lot more to article writing, but every situation is
different, and for every website, the application of
concepts discussed in these areas are different as well.
