Article Writing – An Introduction

Every online marketer must write an article and writing articles is not pleasant for everybody but it is meant to generate traffic for you, so you must use it as one of your tools to get quality and targeted traffic to your products or website.
Prove your Authority
This is like the commercials on television or cable networks on companies, products etc. when commercials are made, the aim is to direct prospective buyers or users to the company or products of the company. What the commercials display is that they are an authority in that field. So also when it comes to online business, the author proves that he is an authority in his given niche although he does not market his products on directories but most in his resource box take his readers to his site for more information.
The Key is Writing Articles
The keyword here is that you prove that you are an authority. The only way that this is possible is through article writing. If you are not an authority in your given niche, you will eventually lose out of the market, as targeted traffic will not go to your site believing that you may have nothing to offer, even if you have the best of quality online product, services or information.
Article Writing is based on Keywords
Article writing is based on keywords. The better placed your keywords, the better ranked your articles on article directory and the better ranked your website on search engines. You know what it means for you when your website is on the first page of search engines like google. That is, before thousands of visitors and web searchers, your site will be seen. The possibility of positive clicks will certainly be high.
You must follow the Rules
Everything in life has rules and for you to be the best, you must obey the rules of the ‘game’. Article writing has got its own rules that must be applied to get optimum results. First, you must have a basic understanding of what good grammar is all about and apply it wisely. Secondly, every article directory you submit your article to has its own editorial guidelines which must be adhered to strictly or you may be banned. Think of it, when you are banned from three most important article directories.
Be Creative and Have Fun
Article writing could be fun if you allow your mind power to work! Creativity is fun, just start writing something and soon enough, it will all be fun. I started off on the hard side but today, I’m going along with the tide and having fun all the way.
