How to Use Article Marketing to Seriously Ramp up Your SEO Campaigns!

Do you use article marketing for search engine optimization (SEO) purposes? If so then I advise you to listen up because I have something to share with you that may change your whole SEO methodology!

Let us imagine that we are using a single article directory for our article submissions and for a hot link that offers us plenty of juice back to our money (primary) website.

That, it must be said, is a great choice. There is no doubt that a link back from even a single Ezine articles article is a thoroughly worthy link indeed, albeit limited in its capabilities when it comes to helping to rank a web page on our own site.

But, let us consider for a few moments how we can enhance this link further than if it were simply to gain “juice” from the directory of Ezinearticles.com alone.

Mind you, the power that comes from our article being a part of the make-up of that article directory is hefty, simply due to things like Google PR passed down from the domain name, from Alexa ranking, which currently stands at a mere 131 for this article directory, and this signifies massive daily traffic volumes.

Not only this, but we should also consider the number of indexed pages in the articles database, the number of inbound links and also the domain age, which I think is about 8 years old (the age is not showing on the SEO Quake Firefox add-on).

These stats all add up to sheer power, and for us to get just a little taster of this power in the form of a couple of backlinks to our own little website, cannot be underestimated!

Now this is all well and good, most of us know and understand most of the above. We may even be regular contributors to the Ezinearticles.com database, which is great! But, hang onto your seats now as what I’m about to tell you will have you itching to get up and go smacking away at those keys on your laptop or desktop in the effort to put into action what I am about to share with you.

And that is…

How about if I told you that you could set up a nice quality Ezine articles article on a topic of your choice? Get your bio box in there, with a couple of tasty anchor-text links heading on back to your own web pages, and then submit this for publication, and within a day or 2 all is looking right with the world – article published, job done.

Fine, no big deal.

What if I told you that you should not just rest on your laurels here. Oh, no, no, no! If you are to do that then you are missing out on a real opportunity to help your own web page rankings far more. And not only that, if you are more of the inclination of ranking your articles very high in Google, then this is the way to go!

What if I told you that, for example, you could submit your article one day, have it published the next, check out the Google PR which will of course be PR n/a then leave it alone for a bit. However, you could go take a look see at the same article within, say, 3 weeks of publication and lo-and-behold, the darn thing has shot to a Google PR4!

What did I just say there?

A Google PR of 4!

Nope, can’t be done!

You cannot get any article from a Google PR of n/a to jump up 5 places to reach a Google PR of 4 within just 3 weeks of publication, right?

Wrong!

I did it myself, so why can’t you?

Now this is a bit like my own bio-box here – where I link back to my own site etc. and thus providing you with the answer you are seeking. It was a tough call getting the link in the body of the article, hence the “bio-box” style.
I was going to put in a link in the midst of that article that pertains to a Warrior Forum Challenge I have/had going. That Challenge is termed something along the lines of “Top 5 in Google Within 40 Days”.

That may sound fairly easy, but of course I had to hike up the stakes a bit to make it of interest. It’s a fairly tough keyword with around 50 or 60 thousand searches a month (varies according to seasonality factors) according to Google stats (so give or take a good few thousand of that number and you will get a more accurate “feeling” for the actual stats).

But anyhow, the whole ranking process was based upon a website under the domain name of twilightposterz.com with the main keyword phrase to be targeted being Twilight poster. Not that I am a hot fanatic of Twilight and the whole Stephenie Meyer Saga. But I love to take my girlfriend’s kids to the movies and pretend that I’m doing this only for them. I’m a secret admirer of the Twilight movies!

Haha, there are my two anchor links spent! But if Zee is agreeable to it, I shall now provide a link to answer the question regards attaining high Google PR in short shrift with regards an Ezine articles article, and that can be located here… http://affordableseotipsandtricks.com/how-to-massively-ramp-up-your-article-marketing-campaigns-for-seo

  1. Hi Sonny, you read this you read that – what to believe and what to throw in the trash?

    Almost every year there will be doom and gloom about article marketing and how its not effective any longer. I beg to differ – its very effective, regardless of Google algo updates and Yahoo joining forces with Bing.

    I can’t say much more on this subject. If you choose to believe the doom then fine – but if you choose to be wise, then all the better!

    Seems that the Twilight domain name is expiring, the website is no longer up. Ironically enough though it is still ranking in the first page of Google!

    • Quite right Jean – I’ve gotten in the habit now of cutting loose any of my sites that are not making enough income for me and this is one of those casualties. If I could turn back time I would choose a different focus altogether, but nevertheless, it served its purpose.

    Article marketing involves the submitting of an article to as many free article directory websites as possible. Search engines love free article directory websites. And best of all, you are allowed a resource box at the end of your article where you could prominently display your name as well as three links to your website. This would certainly generate some traffic to your website!
