Article marketing is one of the most powerful marketing strategies available to any marketer, regardless of that marketers location, status, financial situation, abilities, etc. Anyone can post an article online but not just anybody can do it successfully.

1. Get your priorities straight

Confusing the reason to promote the articles with the reason to write them is a fine line. In article writing, there are three key benefits as to why you are promoting them; branding, lead generation and promotion, which are all part of your optimization efforts.

There is only one reason as to why you write an article.To inform your audience. If the article is not focused on this first and foremost, 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 and THEN make them click on your resource box. You can achieve this by producing great content.

2. Maximize opportunities

You probably already realize that article marketing can help get you additional back links to your site. How about shooting for higher goals and getting better search engine results? Did you know that you can do that?

You can apply simple tricks like mentioning keywords strategically. You can use anchor texts as well. Many different marketers have done different methods to achieve better success and will continue to come up with better ways to maximize results.

It is not always about getting links and visitors to your site because although this will help, your success ultimately will depend on what your prospect will do once you get them to your site. Then what?

3. Publish great content

As we mentioned above, you can do a lot of things to get traffic to your site and more back links because of article marketing. The best way and 100% proven way to achieve maximum success in every way is to publish great content in all that you do.

Your content is basically your built in salesperson. Your content is all that you can rely on to initiate the purchasing process. Therefore, the content in your articles, forums, blogs, website, salespage, etc., is going to achieve everything for you.

Focusing on your content is as important as paying attention to the road while you're driving. If you lose sight of the road for any reason, the results are never good. This holds true to marketing, whether it be article marketing or any other aspect of marketing.

As you can see, article marketing is powerful. It can be a tremendous asset or a marketers nightmare if you let it. Since article marketing is so readily available, why not maximize your results by implementing proven techniques?
