When you do article marketing, you should not expect instant results, both in terms of traffic and from an SEO point of view. Expecting to get results within a couple of weeks or after submitting a couple of articles is just not realistic at all. Fact is that article marketing, like many other promotion methods, takes time. But how long does it take to really get results from article marketing? If you have been online for a while, you may have found many so-called experts or other internet marketers telling you that writing an article would instantly get your article or your site to page one of search results. But nothing could be further from the truth, except if you are promoting a very low competition keyword that gets one search per day. The typical question of people who start with article marketing is something like: "I have been doing article marketing for a month, I submitted 4 articles, but my rankings for my targeted keywords have not improved yet. I don't see any results from my efforts. Does article marketing work?" There are 2 major points you should be aware of if you want to make article marketing work for you. The first important point is that to make things happen, you'll need at least 3 months. This is the time frame that will get you to where you want or at least put you on the right track. And it is not only true for article marketing, but also for SEO, or pretty much any traffic generation method outside paid traffic. And this is a minimum. If you are just starting and have no experience at all, the learning curve might be steep and you might not get good results before 6 months of consistent article marketing efforts. The second important point you should focus on is consistency. Consistency is probably the major factor of success for any online promotion technique. Spamming article directories will not take you faster to page one of search results, and a quality article submission plan over time will be much more efficient. Submitting one article per day 5 days a week or even 2 articles per week over 3 months and more will get you results. It is perfectly achievable if you have the right mindset. I would like to tell you the story of an internet marketer I know who started a network marketing online business less than 2 years ago. He chose article marketing as his number one and unique promotion technique, and committed to writing, publishing and promoting one article every day, 5 days a week. After 45 articles published, and doing only this, he was having close to 100 daily visitors to his network marketing website. He consistently published more articles until today. He now gets more than 2,000 unique visitors per day to his website and has achieved a multiple six-figure yearly income. This guy did not expect instant results, he didn't use any magic pill, he just chose article marketing and committed to write consistently. You might have heard many stories of people who submitted 5 articles and waited for results that never came, and quit. But there are also many stories like this one above of people who stuck with it and managed to build a very successful online business. Article marketing must be considered as a long term marketing technique. You will see that your efforts will pay off big time if you manage to be consistent. You might not see big results at the beginning, but after a year of consistently submitting two quality articles per week you might be very surprised with your results.
