Articles to drive traffic
As an avid article marketer myself, I fully understand how well article marketing works – if you’re consistent.
About a year ago I did a bit of a marketing experiment just to see how powerful article marketing as a tool to drive traffic (and sales) could work. I also decided to target one of the biggest niches around – weight loss!
I figured that if I could compete and get sales in the weight loss niche, then I could make money in any niche. So I started off with one central blog "hub" and I created three secondary blogs, which I linked back to the hub. (You might want to check out our Link Wheel page to get an idea of just how big you can take this – the Link Wheel is actually MUCH more advanced!).
From there I began posting articles every day. I posted one main article to the hub site, another original article to an article directory and then summaries of the articles on the secondary blogs.
After 4 days my site was ranked in Google and I had my first sale (of a weight loss affiliate product) in 11 days.
Not bad for a brand new site huh? I don’t do too much with that website these days because I’m so busy with other projects, but I still get regular traffic, sign ups to my freebie on offer, and in Ezine Articles, my weight loss articles are still attracting more views than any of my others!
Because I was adding content every day and creating backlinks to my hub site through the article directory and my secondary blogs, I automatically began to attract traffic. My website contained useful relevant information so visitors were inclined to take a look around and maybe sign up for the newsletter (or whatever I was offering). I became an authority.
I was writing these articles myself however, hence the reason I stopped promoting the site because I had other projects to do. But imagine if you had somebody else do all of this for you?! Imagine how much time you would save!
