How to Write Article Content And make $50-$500 Daily With Bum Marketing

If you can learn how to write article content for distribution to article directories, and how to avoid the writing errors that cause most to fail, then there few reasons why you should not succeed to have your article listed prominently on Google.

Most people are aware of how to write article content, but how do you optimize what you write to attain high search engine listings? Here are a few tips from a professional article ghostwriter (me) with several years experience in article marketing, and writing articles for maximum impact and results.

1. Why are You Writing Articles?

You will find lots of advice online about how to write, but how many of these people ask you to consider why you are writing articles? Is it to demonstrate that you are a master of your niche? Is it to help to solve problems for your readers? These are both excellent reasons for writing, but in what way will they help to promote your product or business? Have a clear idea of what you intend to write before touching the keyboard.

2. How to Write Article Content to Achieve That

First you must do your research and find out what your potential readers might be looking for. Make sure your facts are right and them get them on the page. Don't give them it all, though; leave more for them to find out later (from your website hopefully). Provide part of an answer and infer that your website, or product, can provide the rest. That will often be enough for your readers to click on yiour resource link.

If you can write article content in such a way as to leave your readers wanting to find out more, they are liable to click on your link for more information. However, if you write in an amateurish fashion, with grammar and spelling errors, your readers will be less likely to trust you. I know that your grammatical knowledge and your knowledge of your niche are likely unconnected, but it is what your potential customers think that counts, nothing else.

There are ways in which you can improve your writing ability and style, and if you have doubts in that department then work on it. A well written article will bring better results than one that seems lacking in literacy, irrespective of what you might think. Sure, it might make no different to some, but those to whom you are looking to purchase your products are likely to be more discerning in that respect than casual readers.

3. Optimize Your Articles for Search Engines

You also have to learn how to write article content that will attract the attention of search engines. Any of your articles accepted by article directories are published on their own web pages contained within the directory. They have as much likelihood of achieving a good search engine listing as any regular webpage. If you have optimized your article properly, then it could get a high listing on page #1 for the keyword on which it has been optimized.

Keyword research is therefore important so that you use a well used keyword with as few competing sites as possible in your article, and take Google's latent semantic indexing algorithm into account. That involves using context that relates to the keyword for the article rather than just repeating it.

4. Write the Author's Resource Intelligently

Learning to write article content that keeps the reader involved and interested is only half the battle: you must still get the click. You must be honest with what you write in your resource, and should also make the reader an offer. Here, for example, I might offer more information on how to write a resource that your readers can't resist. That would not be truthful because over 90% of your readers will not make that click irrespective of how well you have tried to persuade them to do so.

You should offer the reader genuine help and also an inducement for them to accept that by clicking on your resource link. Sure, they might decide that your product is not for them, but the offer you make should show them that you are genuine.

It could be a free ebook - not some worthless old ebook but a product that will be valuable to your readers - or a course related to your niche. If you have a dog site then offer a five part course on teaching your dog some obedience tricks, or if on fishing then a few tips on choosing tackle and bait for specific types of fish. If you write honestly, and offer genuinely useful gifts and offers, the response might surprise you.

That is how to write article content for article directories: write authoritatively and try to avoid mistakes - and be totally honest! If your resource is right then you have a chance of some good results.
