One of the best ways to attract more visitors to your website is through writing articles.
Writing original and informative articles to promote your website is the most inexpensive way to get links to your sites out to the general web-public.
The only investment is your time and creativity.
Content for your article must be interesting and above all, original, along with containing primary keywords that target your site's theme.
You will want to write content to lure a potential visitor into reading your article and give them just enough to want to continue on to the next step - visiting your website.
When you have finished, read your article as if you were the future visitor.
Need help getting started? Product reviews make great articles, as long as it is topic related, and something you actually have knowledge about and have used.
You can also try browsing through forums related to your niche in order to get a feel for what people are looking for, and spark ideas for article content.
Articles do not need to be lengthy - in fact, an article that is too long, can have a negative influence on your readership.
An article containing somewhere between 400 and 700 words should be sufficient.
Most people will be reading to obtain assistance of some sort, and will appreciate finding an article that is brief, informative and to-the-point.
Having said that, it should also be said that your article should hold the reader's interest - not be so fact laden that it is dry, or boring.
If you have an amusing story or personal experience that fits your topic, by all means incorporate it into your article somehow.
Everyone loves a good story! Submitting your articles to several article directories ensures greater exposure.
Most article directories provide an area called a "resource box" for an author bio/info paragraph, where you can provide a link to your website, thereby allowing other webmasters to use your article in their sites, with the understanding that your content remains unchanged and your link stays in place.
This is the opportunity to sell yourself, your website, products or services.
The more your article is viewed and possibly used on other sites, the more free exposure you are getting and the potential for a better ranking and positioning in the search engines.
There are hundreds of article directories to choose from - just shop around - some are niche-specific.
Just remember to read their terms of service and be aware of their rules for submission before sending them your articles.
Personally, this has been one of the best traffic boosting tools I have seen yet.
