As it was in the beginning

Publishers have for many years relied on letters to get feedback from their readers and although email has opened up this method of communication it is still time consuming and difficult to monitor and process, and for the more popular articles, it is either a case of only a fraction of the received correspondence ever being used, or where online comments have been allowed, well written and good comments can be buried under poorly written and abusive comments.

Let’s face it, as well as being an overhead for the publisher, to most people it is an unrewarding medium in terms of effort required and response received, just think of the number of letters that go unpublished and unread.

As it is now

New channels of communication have been created by the Internet and this in turn has created opportunities that allow us to challenge traditional methods. The Internet is now a mature technology, no longer the preserve of the new fad brigade but a technology that has been embraced by a global population, young and old alike and it allows us now to re-evaluate the way things are done. Newspapers, trade journals, magazines and ezines now have the opportunity to change the mental process.

When people read an article that provokes thought they now expect the opportunity to comment either by writing a comment, sending an email or writing a letter. Sure emails are easier but it still takes time to craft an email and time for the majority, is what they haven’t got.

Although interesting a letters page or a list of comments are at best a sample of views or an endless unmanaged list of comments; a letter may be well crafted and well written letter but due to the free text form it is difficult, or near impossible, to measure.

As it should be

Now consider the advantages of linking articles to online surveys where as a publisher you will have the ability to obtain valuable readership feedback in a form that can be easily measured. Just as important as you communicating with your readers is giving your readers a way to communicate with you where they know it will count.

Do you want to deliver a snapshot of opinion? How much did they like the article? Did the readership agree with what was said or do they have a different view?

Now it’s easy

In the past surveys would have taken considerable effort to design and publish and altogether was a process too long winded and therefore reserved for the niche and bigger topics.

However, using a hosted survey site surveys and questionnaires can be created and published via the Internet by anyone who has a pulse. Professional looking questionnaires and online surveys created in minutes make the perfect complement to articles that prompt opinion and debate.

The advantage over letters, e-mails and comments are that all the feedback gathered through online surveys is managed and measured and sites like Survey Galaxy will provide you with a real time poll and charts that you can either keep to yourself or share with your readers.

It can even be complementary to sending an email

Linking articles to online surveys will extend the life of the article and involve your readers in the discussion in a way where they are confident that their opinion will be counted.

If you think they would rather send an email? – not a problem – just include the facility within the online surveys and get the best of both worlds.

It’s quick, low cost, and easy to do; it will empower and engage the reader, provide first class feedback and having established a communication channel you then have the opportunity to promote other related articles.

Article marketing is a fantastic method of creating one-way backlinks and thus an important part of off page SEO (Search Engine Optimization). I don’t want to go into SEO here, but we all know that the search engines view one-way links as more important than reciprocal links. Have you ever heard of Matt Callen? If you haven’t you must be a newbie or you must be old Rip van Winkel and slept for the past few years. Matt Callen is a real expert when it comes to SEO and Internet marketing.

As a SEO expert Matt realizes the importance of using article marketing effectively to create those quality one-way backlinks and to drive targeted free traffic to his websites. Matt also realizes that the market is becoming competitive and the time has come to experiment with innovative versions of article marketing. For this reason Matt has now created My Article Network. This network is a brand new submission and syndication program for articles. Matt calls his new program “the single most effective traffic generation tool online”. It is an article submission service where you can take your article marketing to a new level.

For years article marketing has focused on the publishing of quality articles to article directories to get those quality backlinks and to increase the traffic to your site. The idea is to use directories with high page rank and place your articles in the right categories. Furthermore we hope that sites in the same niche will pick up our articles through the directories giving us more backlinks and moving us up the search engine rankings. All these quality one-way links should in time improve our rankings and drive lots of free traffic to our website. Unfortunately article marketing that is done in this way is a process that takes time and one needs to be patient. It is not about publishing your article today and reaping the benefits tomorrow. Thousands of articles are being published every day and everyone in the Internet marketing game uses traditional article marketing to try and better their search engine rankings. Thousands of articles are being published every day and compete for publisher’s attention. The chance of your article being picked up by a niche site is therefore slim to none.

Enter Matt Callen with his brilliant new program called My Article Network. With Matt’s My Article Network it is so easy to drive tons of free targeted traffic to your website. You just write your article on a relevant topic as you normally do, targeting your keywords. You spin the article and submit to the network. As easy as that and the system does the rest. Your article then gets submitted to all the relevant blogs in the network. That means your article gets submitted to sites in a similar niche. There are about 10000 or more blogs in the network. So if your article is unique and of quality you have the potential of being placed on thousands of sites and creating fantastic relevant backlinks that will definitely improve your ranking and boost the free targeted traffic to your site. Can it get any better than that!

They always say though that the proof is in the pudding. Well, this pudding already tastes very nice for quite a few Internet marketers that have taken their article marketing to a new level. A lot of users have tasted the success with nr 1 pages on Google just by using this type of article marketing. They are reaping the benefits of targeted traffic to their sites. The success of My Article Network is that it gets your articles indexed quickly and also gets you quick backlinks.

There are quite a number of things I love about this great Article Marketing program.

1. We have already mentioned the fact that articles are indexed quickly and that you acquire quick backlinks to your sites. It sometimes even happens minutes after you have written and published the articles. The type of marketing is legal and requires no blackhat or shady tricks to fool the search engines.
2. The article content spinner makes it possible to make every article submitted totally unique. I submitted a version of one of my articles the other day that was 220% unique? That means no chance of being slapped for duplicate content. The great thing about the spinner is that you can do the spinning sentence by sentence and make sure that all your versions make total sense. This enables you to produce plenty of absolute unique quality versions of your article. That is absolutely cool! After writing and saving your article you can check the different versions by simply refreshing your browser.
3. Another great thing about this type of article marketing is that you get the opportunity of placing up to 3 hyperlinks in the body of your text. Some article directories don’t allow this. It gives you the chance to hyperlink to anchor text through your article marketing. This is very important to obviously target the keywords you want to rank for.
4. As part of your membership you can also build great authority sites by using other member’s unique articles on your site. One of the rules of this article marketing program is that all articles that are submitted must be unique. You can actually see how unique an article is before approving or rejecting the article. Most articles I have received were more than 100% unique. You may fix spelling and other errors after approving the article. The only thing you may not do is remove the author’s hyperlinks. You may place your own hyperlinks in the article. This is a really awesome way of growing your own site with absolute unique content without actually having to write all your own articles. The key here is that you still have absolute control on what articles you want to publish on your site.

I will definitely keep you up to date on how my own article marketing campaigns are going through the network and if I am successful in driving lots of targeted traffic to my sites. If you want to know more or are ready to join this membership now please visit MY ARTICLE NETWORK.

I am sure the above question is echoing around the world every day. Many prospective Internet Marketers have found out that writing good articles on a consistent basis are much tougher than it appears. The simple fact of life is that not all of us are born to write. Writing articles is not just about posting them to your sites or to article directories or social networking sites. Article Marketing is all about getting people to read your articles and driving traffic to your sites. You may spend hours writing an article, just for nobody being interested in reading it. This effort and waste of valuable time might be the last nail in your coffin and make your Article Marketing boat come to rest on the rocks or wait…

What if there was a unique opportunity to get free PLR articles in your inbox every day. Yes, those ears are hearing correctly. Free PLR articles everyday! The author of this free offer is not crazy. He is in fact a specialist in the Article Marketing genre and I have personally used this service for a while with great effect.
Not only will you receive 5 free PLR articles per day to boost your Article Marketing efforts, these free articles are also freshly written by his PLR team. This means you do not get any old rehash PLR articles. Well, I do not know about you, but I am so tired of buying the same free PLR articles repeatedly.

The only thing about these free articles is that it needs editing before you can use them in your Article marketing campaign, which is not a bad thing. It forces you to rewrite them so that you avoid being slapped for using duplicate content. I believe that taking these free articles and rewriting them is much easier than writing the articles yourself. Professionals do the free articles and the research.

I am sure all of us can dot down a few thoughts, but not every own can deliver that killer copywriting that is going to deliver killer sales. Are your copywriting skills going to turn skeptical visitors or list members into buyers or are it going to have the reverse effect of chasing potential buyers of your Clickbank affiliate product away.

Our message that we send out to promote our Clickbank affiliate product may be the single most important thing we do in the selling process. Our copywriting can literally make or break our affiliate marketing effort. Most customers are skeptical. I believe it is part of human nature and also due to the enormous amount of dishonest people out there. Convincing people to buy your Clickbank affiliate product is only part of the problem. Grabbing their initial attention might be your greatest challenge. Most people will start reading and if they don’t see the key benefit for them they will stop reading.

What most people don’t realize is that great copywriting is actually an art. It is actually a skill to get people to buy your Clickbank affiliate products through the written word. With written content you don’t have the luxury of instant feedback. In face-to-face marketing you have the advantage of adapting your message depending on the feedback you are getting from the customer. With copywriting you have one chance of capturing your customer’s attention. Then you also need to hold his attention. So you really need to be on the ball with your copywriting.

You have chosen your Clickbank affiliate product and have fulfilled all the necessary steps. You have targeted your market, delivered your message, caught your reader’s attention and held it. Last but not least you need to get the customer to take action. Yes, don’t forget that we are in business to sell our affiliate product. What an absolute walk in the park!

Believe me it is not easy. With this in mind let’s go back to my earlier question. How good are your copywriting skills? I am sure you now realize that great copywriting is not just a case of dotting down your thoughts. It is a skill that needs creative thinking and may take years to hone. By now you might think. Heck, I would love to sell my Clickbank affiliate product, but I now realize I am not a creative copywriter. I am here to tell you that you have nothing to fear.
