How to Increase Your Website Traffic by Writing Articles

If you have been experiencing difficulty in getting qualified traffic to your website, and you do not have an unlimited marketing budget, consider writing articles to increase your traffic and generate new customers.

Become the Expert In Your Niche
Writing and submitting articles that are related to your business, product or service can be a wonderful way to build credibility, increase your search engine rankings, and be seen as an expert in your field.

Writing quality articles is all about using keywords that are related to your product or service. The SEO tools and robots pick up your keywords, which in turn, increases your search engine rankings.

Getting Started In Article Writing
So, how do you write a good quality article? First, think about your keywords that you want to use. For example, if your product is selling environmentally friendly garbage bags, you could use keywords like ‘garbage bags’, ‘environmentally friendly.’ How about ‘earth-friendly’,’ green’ or ‘waste.’ Write your article around these keywords. Perhaps you could provide tips on how to cut down on waste, or tips on how to make sure that the bag is really environmentally-friendly. Use your imagination, and let the words flow.

Once you have written your article, you need to submit it to various article submission services. A Google or Yahoo! search will bring up dozens of sites for you to submit to. Most of them are free and easy to use. You will need to create an account before you start submitting your articles.

If you really aren’t much of a writer, there are several writing services that will write for you, using the keywords that you provide. They usually write in batches of 10 and most are reasonably priced. Do your research and find someone who you feel will do the best job for you.

You can also submit your articles to ezines or online newsletters. These are publications that publish content online and email to their distribution lists. Most ezine publishers love receiving new content and articles. Look for ezines that relate to your product or service. Using the sample above of environmentally friendly garbage bags, you would look for ezines that are ‘green’ related. A simple search should yield you dozens of results.

Don’t forget to include your resource box at the bottom of your articles. This will include your name, email, website and business name. When someone reads your article and wants more information, or wants to order your product, they just click on your link and visit your website.

When you regularly submit fresh articles and content to various sites and ezines, more and more people start visiting your site, and your traffic numbers will rise steadily month by month. In a relatively short period of time, you will see your rankings and your product orders increase, as well as your profits.
