Of all the free methods to make money online, article marketing may be the best. By simply writing articles and leaving a back link in your resource box, you virtually guarantee yourself free traffic to your website for the life of that article. Here's a few tips on how to make money online by writing articles. The nice thing about using article marketing, besides the fact that it is free, is that you do not have to be an expert author or writer. All you need to do is put down in words your own views and experiences on the subject. Most people can do this easily because you are only writing between 400 - 500 words. Far less than the long drawn out reports we have all given in school. There are people who you can hire to write articles for you if you are not comfortable to do so. Fresh content is the key however, and learning to write yourself should be your priority. I know how it is when you first step into something that you are not familiar with. Writing is the same feeling. If you aren't comfortable writing yet, push yourself to persist through it, I promise it will get easier the more you write. Lets face it, in this industry writing skills are a must if you want to make money online. Learn to write at least one or two articles a week to build a name for yourself and to optimize the amount of free traffic you will generate. After you have written your article, you can either submit it manually to different article directories or you can purchase a distributor to do the job for you. Purchasing an article distributor will save you an abundant amount of time. What you are trying to accomplish by writing and submitting articles is to draw attention to your website. That is why the authors resource box is so important. Make sure you include your name, copyright clause, and a link back to your website. The resource box should be a call to action for the reader. You want to make it so the reader can't say no to clicking on your back link. When you submit articles you will be building back links to your site that wll help increase page rank and search engine rankings for keywords. So before submitting your articles, it is very important to research your keywords very carefully. Put enough keywords n your article for the search engines to recognize them, but not so much where it makes your article unreadable. After writing and submitting articles on a regular basis you will really start to see your traffic stats improve. More traffic means more sales. So if you are looking for cheap and effective ways to make money online, start writing and submitting articles right away! Copyright (c) 2008 Matt Helphrey
