A place for finding the Nuts and Bolts for Making Money Online with Affiliate Marketing Business Opportunity!

Article Marketing is one of the most effective ways to promote either your own products or affiliate products and the best thing is that it is free. However, many people try article marketing and fail and there is a big reason for their failure. They just don't do it right! Here are the five rules that will make your article marketing successful.

Rule number one: Have a great title and make it relevant to your article. If your title doesn't grab the attention of those browsing then they aren't going to click onto your article to read it. Your title plays a huge role in how many views your article will get. You should try and include your keywords in your title so that your title stands out when people search for those keywords.

Rule number two: Just as the title needs to grab readers attention, so does the summary. The summary is a couple of sentences that people will see usually just under your title and if they like what they see in the summary then they will click to read the full article. Don't just copy the first couple of sentences from your article into the summary, but use these couple of sentences to sell your article and entice visitors to click and read.

Rule number three: Don't forget to include website links in the resource box at the end of your article. Some article directories may let you include links within the article but most don't so it is best to just put them in the resource box. Many will not allow affiliate links either so I recommend doing a redirect from your own website to the affiliate link.

Rule number four: Make your article interesting to keep the reader's attention right to the end. Your readers aren't going to click the link to visit your website if the article didn't interest them, so always offer good quality information in your articles.

Rule number five: Even though you want to offer good quality information, you don't want to give away too much. It is good to be a little mysterious and only offer enough information to grab the reader's attention but have just that little bit of mystery that will make them want to visit your website to find out more.

By remembering these rules you will receive a lot of traffic to your website through your articles and your sales will increase dramatically. Article marketing truly is one of the most effective marketing methods so make sure you do it right to gain the maximum benefit from it.
