ARTICLE MARKETING 

EXPLAINED


How to Make Money by Article Marketing

One way of promoting your website and product can be 
achieved for FREE. As an additional bonus, this “free”
method can boost your sites and sales, doubling and even 
tripling your income. 
Articles. One of the easiest ways to promote your website 
in order to generate traffic and increase your earnings. 

How does this work?
Write articles relating to your website and submit them to 
“free content” submission sites. Easy to do, takes little 
time and can increase your website traffic, sales and of 
course, your income. 
How can article writing boost traffic 
and income?
The article on the free content site contains a link to your 
own website. Readers, after reading your articles, may 
choose to click on the link and pay you an unexpected 
visit. Having them on the free content sites is also making 
these articles available to other webmasters who may 
wish to publish that article on their site. 
If they do, your article will include a link back to your site. 
And anyone who reads the article on that site can still click 
on the link to visit your site. 
As the list of your published articles grow larger, and more 
and more of them are appearing on different websites, the 
total number of links to your site increases also.
Major search engines are placing a lot of significance on 
incoming links to websites so they can determine the 
importance of a certain site. 
The more incoming links the website has, the more 
importance search engines attaches to it. This will then 
increase your website’s placement in the search results. 
If you site is into promoting a product or service, the links 
that your articles have achieved will mean more potential 
customers for you. Even if visitors only browse through, 
you never know if they might be in need of what you are 
offering in the future.
There are also those who already have specific things they 
need on their mind but cannot decide yet between the 
many choices online. Chances are, they may stumble upon 
one of your articles, gets interested by the contents you 
wrote, go to your site and became enticed by your 
promotions.
See how easy that is?
Search engines do not just index the websites, they also 
index published articles. 
They also index any article that is written about your own 
website’s topic. So once someone searches for that same 
topic, the list of results will have your site or may even 
show the articles that you have written. 
And to think, no effort on your part was used to bring 
them to your site. Just your published articles and the 
search engines.
It is no wonder why many webmasters are suddenly 
reviving their old writing styles and taking time to write 
more articles about their site than doing other means of 
promotion. 
Getting their site known is easier if they have articles 
increasing their links and traffic and making it accessible 
for visitors searching the Internet. Since many people are 
now taking their buying needs online, having your site on 
the search engines through your articles is one way of 
letting them know about you and your business. 
The good thing with articles is that you can write about 
things that people would want to know about. This can be 
achieved in the lightest mood but professional manner, 
with a little not-so-obvious sales pitch added
If you think about it, only a few minutes of your time is 
spent on writing one article and submitting to free content 
site. In the shortest span of time also, those are 
distributed to more sites than you can think of. Even 
before you know what is happening, you are getting more 
visitors than you previously had. 
If you think you are wasting your time writing these 
articles, fast forward to the time when you will see them 
printed and wide-spread on the Internet. Not to mention 
the sudden attention and interest that people are giving 
your website and your products or services. 
Try writing some articles and you will be assured of the 
sudden surge in site traffic, link popularity and interest. 
Before you know it, you will be doubling and even tripling 
your earnings. 
Nothing like getting benefits for something you got for 
free!

THE 4 THINGS ALL 
ARTICLES MUST HAVE

The importance of articles in today’s websites and Internet 
based companies are immeasurable. They dictate a lot in 
the success and the drive of traffic into one’s site. It has 
become a key element in making a site work and earns a 
profit. A website operator and owner must have the good 
sense to include articles in his or her site that will work for 
them and earn them the many benefits articles can give to 
their site.
Articles have been known to be the driving force in driving 
traffic to a website. Articles are a factor in giving site high 
rankings in search result pages. The higher a site ranks the 
bigger slice of the traffic flow pie he gets. With a huge 
number in traffic flow, there are more profits and more 
potential for other income generating schemes as well.
But, it is not just about stuffing your site with articles; they 
have certain requirements as well. 

These requirements must be met to obtain the maximum 
benefits an article will provide for your site. A well written 
article will catch the eyes and interest of your customers 
and keep them coming back for more. They would also be 
able to recommend your site to others.
Here are some tips to help you and assist you in making 
your articles. Below you will read about four things all 
articles must have to make it successful and helpful in 
making your site a profit earning and traffic overflowing 
site. 

Keywords and Keyword Phrases. 

An article must always be centered on the keywords 
and keyword phrases. As each website visitor goes to 
a site, there are those who are just merely browsing 
but actually looking for a specific something. When 
this happens, a searcher usually goes to a search 
engine and types in the keywords they are looking for 
(e.g. Toyota Camry, Meningitis, Tax Lawyer etc.). It 
could be anything they want.
The Important thing is that you have an article that 
has the keywords that are related to your site.

For example, if you maintain an auto parts site, you 
must be able t have articles about cars and their 
parts. There are many tools in the Internet that 
provides service in helping a webmaster out in 
determining what keywords and keyword phrases are 
mostly sought out. You can use this tool to determine 
what keywords to use and write about. 

Keyword Density

Know that you have your keywords and keyword 
phrases, you must use them fully. An article must 
have good keyword density for a search engine to 
“feel” its presence. Articles should at least have ten to 
fifteen percent of keyword density in their content 
for search engines to rank a site high in their search 
results. Getting a high rank is what articles do best for 
a site. 
Keyword density is the number of times a keyword or 
keyword phrase is used on an article. The number 
varies depending on the number of words used in an 
article. An effective article must have a keyword 
density that is not too high or too low. 
With a very high density, the essence of the article is 
lost and may turn off a reader as well as the search 
engines. It comes off as overeager. A low number 
may be ignored by the search engines.

Good Article Content

Like what is stated above, you cannot just riddle an 
article with keywords. They must also be regarded as 
good reading materials. Articles must be able to 
entertain people as well as provide good information 
and help for their needs. 
Articles should be written well with correct spelling 
and good grammar. If you want people to trust you, 
make your work good and well thought out. 
People respond well to figures, facts and statistics. 
Try to get great information and as many facts as you 
can. A good and well written article will boost your 
reputation as an expert in your chosen field or topic. 
As more people believe in you. They will be able to 
trust you and your products. 

Linking Articles

And another important thing to remember: if you are 
going to submit articles to E-zines and/or contribute 
your articles to newsletters and other sites, DON’T 
ever forget to include a link to your site. A little 
resource box with a brief description of your site and 
you should always be placed right after your articles 
that you have submitted. If people like your articles, 
they will most likely click on the link directing them to 
your site. 

HOW TO CREATE 
AN OUTLINE FOR ALL OF 
YOUR ARTICLE

How to Make Money by Article Marketing

We’ve done it through junior high, it expanded longer 
through high school. Then on college it became chapters. 
No matter how many times a person have done it, writing 
articles has proven to be a task many has continuously 
avoided. Now at a time when writing articles could help 
your job or work, facing the job at hand can be still faced 
with unfriendly behavior. 
While there are a great number of people who do not 
have the same attitude in article writing as others, there 
are still those who would rather walk in piping hot coals 
than do some article writing. What set other people apart 
from other towards article writing is that they are 
prepared and has some methods and procedures in 
writing articles.
One of the methods you can use to prepare yourself when 
tasked to write in article is creating an outline first. 
Creating an outline for all your articles makes you 
prepared. You have an idea of what to do first and make a 
plan for your succeeding steps. Being prepared makes the 
job easier and faster. Being organized will allow for 
disorientation to be shunned away.
An outline can act as the design or blueprint for your 
article. This will guide you in creating the introduction, 
body and conclusion of your article. 
Here in this point, you can write down some of the ideas 
and sentences that you feel will look good in your article. 
This could be some of the focal point that could help make 
your article creative, interesting and appealing to a reader. 
A carefully planned and fully prepared project would 
guarantee and ensure a problem and worry free 
procedure that can virtually go without any hassles. 
Creating an outline for all your articles will get you ready 
and breeze through writing an article in no time at all. 
Here I will provide you with some tips and guidelines in 
how to create an outline for all of your articles. 
Do a couple of brainstorming and jot down your brilliant 
ideas first. Think of some ways to attract the interest of 
your reader. Designate a time frame where you can write 
down all the ideas that you can use for your articles. 
By this time you should have done all your research and 
information searching. Review and reread your ideas and 
notes, gain mastery and sufficient familiarity with your 
topic so that writing them down later own would be easy 
for you. 
The next step is to discover your sub topic and sub titles. 
As you would provide a first sentence for your article, one 
that would immediately grab the attention of your reader, 
you would need some as well for your sub topics. 

To be concise, you would need to get all the facts that will 
support and go against your point. These are the frames or 
skeleton of your article, now its time to add the flesh and 
the meat of your article. 
You will need to connect all your paragraphs and sub 
topics. This will form the body of your Article. 
While the introduction will usher in the ideas of your 
paragraph, you will need a conclusion. The conclusion will 
wrap up your points and drive in what you are saying in 
your article. 
The outline for your article would also require you to write 
a draft first. This may take more than one attempt but 
remember that it is called a draft for a reason. 
Your outline shall be perfected as each draft is written and 
this draft is meant for your eyes only so there’s no reason 
to feel ashamed.
As you go on, you will clearly see the bigger picture and 
write an article that will perfectly suit what is demanded of 
it. 
Reread and reread what you have written down. Always 
refer to your outline so that you wont drift away from 
what you had first written down. Its not hard to be caught 
in the moment and get lost in your writing frenzy. 
Your outline will help you keep in track. All those hours 
spent in outlining your article will not go to waste. This will 
serve as your guide in writing articles. Trust and rely on 
your outline because this will prove to be a very helpful 
tool in writing all of your articles. 

5 EASY WAYS TO 
GET YOUR CREATIVE 
JUICES GOING

Writing an article doesn’t just mean putting down 
thoughts into words then typing and writing it. You have to 
capture the interest of your readers and get them to keep 
on reading. To send your message across you have to get 
the attention of the reader and have a firm grasp of their 
interest and pique their curiosity.
The main ingredient in baking up an article is a large dose 
of creativity. While creativity may come natural to many 
people, some just gets into a block or something to that 
effect that can drive someone crazy. Many writers have 
literally torn their hair out when they get writers block and 
just can’t seem to get their creative juices flowing.
Putting words into images in the readers mind is an art. A 
clear and crisp depiction requires a certain flair that only 
creativity can provide. 
Similes and metaphors help a lot, but the way an article 
gets entwined word for word, sentence by sentence then 
paragraph by paragraph into a whole article develops the 
essence of the article. 
So just what do you have to do when nothing comes to 
mind? There is no surefire ways to get the perfect ideas 
but there are easy ways to get your creative juices flowing. 
No one can guarantee you of having the perfect mindset 
but many methods may aid you in achieving that state of 
mind. Here are five easy ways for that.

1) Keep a diary or a journal with you always.

Ideas can be triggered by anything you may hear, see, 
or smell. Your senses are your radar in finding great 
ideas. Write all of them into a journal and keep it with 
you for future reference. You may also write down 
anything that you have read or heard, someone’s 
ideas could be used to develop your own ideas and 
this is not stealing. Remember that ideas and 
creativity can come from anywhere; it’s the 
development of the idea that makes it unique.

2) Relax and take time to sort things out.

A jumbled mind cannot create any space for new 
ideas. Everyone must have a clear mind if one wishes 
to have their creativity in full speed. Get rid of all 
obstacles that can be a hindrance to your creativity. If 
you are bothered by something, you cannot force 
your mind to stay focused.
Try to relax every time that you can and think about 
your experiences and interactions with others. Your 
experiences are what shape your mindset and your 
opinions which could be reflected on your writings. 
Try to discover yourself, find out what triggers your 
emotions. Discover what inspires you and what ticks 
you off. You can use these emotions to help you in 
expressing yourself and your ideas, with this you can 
grow creatively.

3) Create a working place that can inspire your 

creativeness.
Your working place can be quite a hindrance if it 
doesn’t make you feel happy or relaxed. 
Creativity comes from being in a good state of mind 
and a messed up workplace that causes distraction 
won’t be conducive in firing up your creative flow. 
Surround your working place with objects that makes 
you happy and relaxed. You may put up pictures, or 
scents, objects that inspire, or anything that can get 
your creativeness cranking. A clean and well 
organized workplace also rids of distractions and 
unwanted hindrances. With a good working place, 
you can work in peace and never notice the time pass 
by. 

4) Set the mood.

Setting the mood requires you to just go with the 
moment or to induce your self to feeling what makes 
your mind works best. Finding out what makes you 
tick could help you find ways to get your creative 
juices flowing. Set the pace and tempo for your mood 
and everything else will follow. 
There are many ways to set the mood. Some writers 
have been known to use alcohol, a little sip of wine to 
stir up the imagination. 
Some would like some mood music while others let 
the lighting of the environment create the mood. 

5) Go on a getaway and just do something unlike crazy.

Letting yourself go and have fun produces adrenaline 
that can make your imagination go wild. Take an 
adventure or a solemn hike. Whatever it is that is 
unusual from your daily routine can take the rut out 
of your schedule. In no time at all, your creativeness 
will make use of that experience and get your 
imagination to go on overdrive.

WHAT TO DO BEFORE 
SUBMITTING TO ARTICLE 
DIRECTORIES

To all writers and non-writers out there, now is the time to 
start digging up those creative writing skills back.
With modern communication technology comes the 
popularity of information-based marketing, which is one of 
the oldest and most effective techniques in getting 
targeted prospects to sites and converting them into 
buyers. This is why article writing, submissions and 
publications are also getting popular. 
There are already many tools that people can use to make 
the process of distributing their articles more easily. 
Though this is invaluable in getting the contents more 
exposure, which is only half of the story. Let us take a look 
first at the common mistakes that some people make 
before submitting their contents to article directories:

1. Confusing the reason to promote the articles with the 
reason to write them.

In article writing, there are three key benefits why 
you are promoting them; branding, lead generation 
and promotion, which are all part of your 
optimization efforts.
But there is only one reason why you write an article, 
and that is to inform your audience. If the article is 
not focused on this primary and most important 
purpose, it will fail to achieve the three promotion 
benefits because no one will be interested in reading 
them.
You need to figure out first how to get people to read 
what is in your article, then make them click on your 
resource box. You can achieve this by producing 
better contents. 

2. Failing to maximize the promotional opportunities of 
article marketing.

You may know already that your articles can help you 
generate additional links back to your site.
 But do you know that you can get more visitors and 
better search engine results from that same articles?
Mention keywords at strategic places. Just be sure 
not to overdo them. Some are even using anchor 
texts which is also an effective method. But it is 
important to know that majority of the directories are 
not able to support this. 
Remember that is not only about the links back to 
your site. Part of doing well in your article marketing 
is getting picked up by publishers with a large number 
of audiences and gaining the ability of leveraging 
other brands because of the quality of your work. 
Better search engine results also are great benefits. 
But these things do not put much money in your 
pocket. There are other factors that can turn your 
article marketing efforts into an opportunity that can 
boost your earnings. Not just increase the number of 
visitors to your site.
Start out with a plan and see to it that your article will 
serve the function that you intended it to have. 

3. Publishing content that does not help your readers.

Maybe in the process of writing articles, you are 
thinking that all that is you wanted is links back to 
your site. And any visitors it can generate are fine.
Guess what? Not all article banks and directories are 
going to accept your content automatically. 
Oftentimes, they have some guidelines and 
specifications on the articles that they are accepting.
You can double the number of sites you can submit to by 
writing articles that the directories want to share with 
other people. All it takes is one publisher with a hundred 
thousand readers to increase your potential audience 
overnight.
Write the articles that publishers want in their publications 
if you want your article marketing to work the most 
effective way for you. This also means you have to obey 
the standard guidelines, spell checks, researching on a 
good topic and even hiring a writer to produce a good 
content on your behalf.
In the end, it is all really a matter of choice on your part. 
You can start getting a little exposure from increased links 
back but on a very basic level. Or enjoy massive exposure 
from a little extra time making quality contents. 
It will be your choice. You may not be aware of the fact 
that an article submitted on directories is not meant to 
have the same level of exposure as highly-targeted 
content ones geared on a narrow group of people. 
Learn the difference between these two and it will surely 
help you know what kinds of articles to write and to 
submit.

RED HOT TIPS TO GET 
YOUR ARTICLES READ

There are many people who dread having to write papers 
or articles. Many just feel like it seems to be too much 
work and it all just goes to waste when no one reads the. 
To some people, reading articles seems like work to, 
especially if the article is boring and very bland. Well, 
articles are supposed to be read, that’s their purpose to 
impart your message and information. If it is not read then 
it is a waste of time and effort.
But all the same, articles have to be written to be read. It’s 
just a matter of making them good. Making a good article 
doesn’t have to be strenuous and straining. There are just 
some points needed to be reminded of, and some guides 
to follow. Once you get the hang of it, writing articles 
could be fun, as well as profitable for you and your site. 
Of course, writing articles must be about something you 
know about, that’s why if you own a site, you probably is 
knowledgeable about that certain topic and theme. 

When you write about it, you won’t have a hard time 
because you already know what it is and what it’s about. 
It’s just a matter of making your articles creative and 
interesting. 
To make sure that your articles get read and enjoyed, here 
are six red-hot tips to get your articles read. These tips will 
make your articles readable and interesting.

1) Use short paragraphs.

When the paragraph are very long, the words get 
jumbled in the mind of the reader just looking at it. It 
can get quite confusing and too much of a hard work 
to read. The reader will just quickly disregard the 
paragraph and move on to much easier reading 
articles that are good to look at as well as read. 
Paragraphs can be a single sentence, sometimes even 
a single word!

2) Make use of numbers or bullets.

As each point is stressed out, numbers and bullets 
can quickly make the point easy to remember and 
digest. 

As each point, tip, guide or method is started with a 
bullet or point, readers will know that this is where 
the tips start and getting stressed. Format you bullets 
and numbers with indentations so that your article 
won’t look like a single block of square paragraphs. 
Add a little bit of flair and pizzazz to your articles 
shape. 

3) Use Sub-headings to sub-divide your paragraphs in the 
page.

Doing this will break each point into sections but still 
would be incorporated into one whole article. It 
would also be easy for the reader to move on from 
one point to another; the transition would be smooth 
and easy. You will never lose your readers attention 
as well as the point and direction to where the article 
is pointing. 

4) Provide a good attention-grabbing title or header.

If your title can entice a person’s curiosity you’re 
already halfway in getting a person to read your 
article. Use statements and questions that utilize 
keywords that people are looking for. 
Provide titles or headers that describe your articles 
content but should also be short and concise. 
Use titles like, “Tips on making her want you more”, 
or “How to make her swoon and blush” .You could 
also use titles that can command people, for example, 
“Make her yours in six easy Ways”. These types of 
titles reach out to a persons’ emotions and makes 
them interested. 

5) Keep them interested from the start to the finish.

From your opening paragraph, use real life situations 
that can be adopted by the reader. Use good 
descriptions and metaphors to drive in your point, 
just don’t over do it. Driving your examples with 
graphic metaphors and similes would make it easy for 
them to imagine what you are talking about. Making 
the experience pleasurable and enjoyable for them.

6) Utilize figures when necessary and not just ordinary 
and insipid statements.

Using specific facts and figures can heighten your 
article because it makes it authoritative. 
But do not make it too formal, it should be light and 
easy in them and flow. Like a friendly teacher having 
a little chat with an eager stuCLICK



WRITING A RESOURCE 
BOX THAT MAKES 
PEOPLE CLICK

The Internet is the information highway, this phrase has 
been used so may time it should be nominated for the 
Internet Cliché Award. People that go to the Internet are 
subdivided into groups, but generally, they are out to 
search information. Whether for gaming, business, fun or 
anything else the Internet has provided us with 
information that has proved to be very beneficial. 
Through the recent years many people have learned the 
secrets of Search Engine Optimization. More and more 
sites have seen the effects articles have done for the 
traffic of their sites. 
Some have even created sites devoted entirely to 
providing articles that could be read by their website 
visitors and have links that could lead to many sites that 
are related to the topics and subjects of the articles. 

For example, the sites may feature many articles about a 
whole lot of topics. As a website visitor reads the articles 
they have searched for, they can find at the end of the 
article a resource box that can be clicked on to link them 
to the site that has submitted the article. Of course the 
article would be in relation to the site. Lets say if the 
article is about rotating the tires, the resource box may 
lead to a link to a site that sells tires or car parts. 
A resource box is what you usually find at the end of an 
article. They will contain the name of the author, a brief 
description of the author, a brief description of the 
sponsoring site and a link. If a reader likes what they read, 
they would have the tendency to find out where the 
article came from to read more. The resource bow will be 
their link to the source of the article and this will entice 
them to go to the site and do some more reading or 
research for the subject or topic they are interested in. 
But like the article itself, the resource box must also be 
eye-catching to demand the attention and interest of the 
reader. While the resource bow encompasses only a small 
space, providing the right keywords and content for your 
resource box will provide more prodding for the reader to 
go to your site. 
Now we know what resource boxes are, what are the 
benefits of having a good resource box?
Mainly its driving traffic to your site.
Many sites would allow articles to be placed in their sites 
because they can make use of the articles to fill their 
pages. They also get affiliation with other sites that can be 
beneficial for them as well. For the sponsoring site, when 
you get people to click on your resource box, you generate 
traffic that can be counted upon as potential customers. 
So what would be a good content for your resource box? 
Basically it is keywords, learning about the proper 
keywords that people are mainly searching for. There are 
many tools you can find in the Internet that can help you 
in determining what keywords to use. 
Resource boxes can also make use of all the creativity it 
can get. You only get a small space for your resource box 
so you better make the most of it. Try to catch the 
attention of your reader with resource box content that 
can make them give a second look. Unlike TV ads, you 
don’t have visual aids to drive your point isite

But you do have the power of imagination of a reader. 
With the right content, you can make them think and 
intrigued. 
Another tip is to use keywords that should be related to 
your site. Do not mislead your potential website visitors. 
Build your credibility so that more people would get 
enticed to visit your site and browse what you have to 
offer. Make the people click your resource box by 
providing resource box content that makes a lasting 
impression. You only get one chance to wow them and 
hundreds of chances to repulse them. 
Never underestimate the power of the resource box. It 
may be small in size but they will provide a significant aid 
in driving traffic to your site. A boring resource box will 
never get a job done. Be fun and creative but at the same 
time show that you have a great deal to offer, too much to 
ask for something that couldn’t fit a paragraph? Yes and 
no, there are many tips and guides that can help you in 
doing this, the first step is realizing how important a 
resource box could be in making people click your link and 
be directed to your site

IF YOU HATE WRITING 
ARTICLES…

Owning, running and maintaining an Internet based 
business or a site needs articles. Plain and simple, every 
one who has a site knows this. Even those who don’t have 
sites but are frequent Internet users knows this as well. 
Articles quench the thirst for information and knowledge 
of the people. Plus, the articles provide many other 
benefits for the site.
The benefits that articles provide are putting a site high in 
the ranking in search results of keywords and keyword 
phrases that pertains or are relevant to his or her site. 
They also provide attraction to website visitors when they 
are appreciated and is linked to your site from another site 
or newsletter. Articles provide for the increase of the 
confidence and trust levels of customers to your site and 
company. 
When the readers like the articles, they would tell more of 
their friends, family and peers and recommend your site to 
them, providing for a larger volume of traffic. You get 
bigger sales if your traffic trusts and believes in you. Your 
product or services would be much easier to sell when 
they know you know what you are doing and talking 
about. 
So ok, we have established that articles are very important 
to a site and to business. Articles are crucial and to keep 
ahead in the game, a site must have an article, it is 
imperative. There is one dilemma though, not many 
people like writing articles. 
Many website owners would rather spend their time on 
something else, and unless you’re a big time company, you 
don’t have the necessary resources to use on a pool of 
article writers. Plagiarism or copying of other articles is 
frowned upon and could easily get you into trouble, worst 
case scenario; a hefty fine and jail time. 
So what are the other options? 
Well, for starters if you hate writing articles and you can’t 
afford to hire people to write for you then don’t. 

Many articles are also beneficial to both company and its 
traffic. 
Get free articles. The first place to look at for free articles 
is the public domain. Here you won’t have problems with 
copyright infringement and the following penalties and 
fines if you get caught for plagiarism. 
Public domain articles are articles freely given to the 
public for public use. You can do whatever you want with 
it. You can place it on your site, name it as yours, put it in a 
newsletter its you decision. Always remember though that 
you will have to choose articles that is very relevant to 
your site.
The downside to public domain articles is that since it is 
free for everybody, many of your competitors may have 
access to them as well. Since every site needs to be 
original and unique even though you have the same niche, 
this could be a predicament. You may also have to edit 
them a bit to place more keywords and keyword phrases 
to make them better. 
Another way to get free articles is to allow other sites 
which has the same subject or topic as yours to submit 
articles to your site.
This would be only to augment your existing content or 
else all your articles would be leading to other sites since 
these articles would have resource boxes with them that 
could link or direct the readers to their site. That’s why it is 
important to have your own articles; you cold use them to 
link your site to other sites as well. 

Tip: to truly feel the impact of what a good article to you, 
go for original ones. There are many article writers who do 
part time and freelance article writing jobs that charges 
only minimal fees. You can get good articles that have all 
the keywords and keyword phrases you need and people 
are looking for.
The investment you made for these articles would be 
worthwhile because you could use them for all the 
benefits you could offer. You hold copyrights to them and 
you will be able to use them anyway you want.
As your articles help you in building your business and 
your site, you will have more articles to write and maybe 
then you wont b
e having second thoughts about articles.
