Focusing Is The Key

2011-03-08T00:40:00.001-08:00

There is truth to information overload. For the past month, I've been reading a lot of ebooks, watching tutorial videos, and interacting in forums that my mind is now loaded with tons of ideas and information about Internet marketing.

This is not good because I'm starting to get derailed to my initial plan on how to get my foot into IM. By this I mean by earning a steady income from it.

I've come across dozens of ideas and strategies that I admit I am tempted to try some of them, but in return I lose track of my first project.

Now I'm going to fix this. By focusing on just one project until its completion then do another one, a different one and see which one I would succeed in. :)

Great blog traffic equals great online income. Is that always the case? Not really, especially if you are not getting the right kind of visitors to your website. With all the blog traffic tips in the world, the ones that you should focus on are those that help you get targeted blog visitors.

To help you out with such a situation, here are 5 great blog traffic tips to bring you the right kind of traffic.

Article marketing is when you publish your articles in article directories. Other web owners can then get your article from these directories and publish them to their own sites.

Many people do this the wrong way. They participate in any forum that they find, thinking that the more forums they are active in, the more traffic they can get. Far from the truth. You should focus only on the forums that are of the same subject matter as your own blog.

3. Create videos and post on YouTube.

Video marketing is the future of internet marketing. It is an excellent way to increase blog traffic because your videos will target only those who are interested in the niche you are in. Therefore it is important that you create videos targeting your desired type of visitors.

Find another blog within your niche and offer to write a blog post there. Some blog owners will approve such a proposal, others will not. The important thing is to give it a try. Also make sure that the article you are submitting is of high quality.

5. Social media marketing

Get active in some of the top social media websites and you will be able to get traffic to your blog in a much improved way. It is best to focus on just a couple of these websites so that you can channel all your social media marketing efforts on them.

3. Don't forget about good grammar.

If you are a blogger, a freelance article writer, or any other kind of writer, you should always check your article if it conforms to the standards of grammar. It does not have to be like a first-class literature, just make sure people will not have a hard time reading it because of all the grammar and spelling mistakes that could have been there.

4. Only publish your post when you are satisfied with it.

Even if you have the slightest apprehension about publishing your post, you should only publish it if you know you have written a great post. Otherwise you would be lowering the standards of your own blog.

5. Let your friends know about your new article.

Article Writing Tips

2010-07-16T23:42:00.000-07:00

Writing and distributing articles has become a regular task of every webmaster who wishes to promote their web sites and products but how do you make sure that the articles you have written will be a success? You must comprehend that the time and effort you put into writing your articles is worthwhile, and to ensure this you should spend time in the beginning carefully planning and structuring the title and content of your article. To do this you need to separate the processes of your article submission into: Research, Article Content, Article Submission and and to do some little more work to promote your article.

Researching Your Article

Initially you should meticulously research the main idea of your article, and make sure that your copy in your article is correct, factual and contains valid citations when needed. You need to provide content of the highest quality to ensure your readers are kept interested. Your title should your main keywords as much as possible that relate to your subject but never sacrifice readability for keywords. If you are having a hard time thinking of an excellent title, you can look at other articles that have gained many readings and examine their titles and look for some clues as to what might have made them successful.

Article Copy

Start with your article title. Focus on providing a clear and concise title, because it is the most important part of the article where people would likely read first. Coming up with a poorly written title is a sure fire way for your article to be trashed out. Moving into the body of your article, your content should be well-written, in good English and with correct punctuation and grammar. Don't repeat sentences in your articles body just to fill space. Make sure that every sentence is clear and understandable.

Another essential thing that can make your articles a success is to ensure your article is well structured. Start with a leading summary that explains what the article is about and why you have written it. You might want to also explain how readers would use the information, if it is particularly technical. As you flow through the document, write in a logical order so that readers don't get confused. Finalize your article with a concise summary.

Submitting Your Article

After you are through with the article you then need to distribute it to readers. This is actually done via article directories. These are normally heavily moderated and they wont accept poor content. To ensure your article is a success you need to make sure that your article is accepted the first time your article is moderated, so you don't have to re-do the submission. Most article directories have guidelines somewhere on the site. Read these carefully and follow them as closely as possible when you submit your article.

Post Distribution

When you have distributed it, the article can now be read by many people. A mistake that so many authors make is that from that point on they expect the article to be instantly found and read a thousand times. It just doesn't work like that - if you want to see your articles read by thousands you need to do a little post submission work. You should start by submitting your article's URL to some social bookmarking sites, and if it is of excellent quality more people will share your article to their friends. Forum posting and mentioning your article is a good way to promote it.

Does Long Copy Still Work Online?

2009-09-11T00:09:00.000-07:00

Think about it. When was the last time you actually read a website copy that extends for more than 500 words? One that you really read from the first sentence to the last? I bet you can't remember and it's just normal because seldom do people read much online today.

People usually skim or scan a web page. They don't really make any full reading because, well let's accept it, since the web is very dynamic, people's attention span is very short. They know that they don't have to waste their time on a useless page if they can also easily find a better article on other sites.

So in my opinion, short and concise copy is the best copy for any website. Unless of course it's fiction, it is understood that you need more than 500 words. But if what you have is a blog or a product review site, it will be for your benefit to limit your copy's words to less than 500 words.

I believe I've read in a usability study before that the best word count should be 150 words. If you make it up to 300 words, that's still okay, just stay away from 500 up to a thousand.
