Article writing.

When people first build a blog or website on the internet, they are often overwhelmed with the many things they need to do in order to get started. There is a domain name to choose, a hosting company to contract with, an auto-responder company to choose and many more. One of the very important, but most overlooked, things to include on their sites is quality information!
One of the best ways to provide this is through well presented article writing. Here are just a few reasons why people write and publish articles on the internet:
• To Drive Traffic to a Website in Order to Sell a Product – The article writing should contain valuable information related to the product followed by an author box with a link to the web site where the product is sold. These internet marketers use articles as a tease, including just enough information but leaving the reader with a desire to learn more about the subject. And of course, the reader can fulfill this desire by purchasing the author’s product!

• To Sell a Product They Are an Affiliate For – In this case, the article may be a review of the product or may contain some basic information about the product in order to grab the reader’s attention. The article will either include his affiliate link to the sales. Or, the author may include a resource box at the end of the article with his affiliate link.

• To Grow a Subscriber List – Usually a marketer who wants to grow his or her list will publish a newsletter periodically which contains an article of interest to his or her targeted audience. Or they may write articles to submit to article directories. These articles will contain a link to a subscription form of some sort, maybe on the author’s blog or online newsletter site.

• As Guest Posts for Someone Else’s Blog or Newsletter – Article writing in most cases is done in order to drive traffic to a particular website or to grow the author’s list. In either case, they will contain a resource box at the end of the article.

• To Impart Knowledge on a Particular Subject – There are some people who write articles just to share knowledge with no real plans for any capital gain. They usually accomplished this by posting to a blog they have created about that subject., much the same as I have with this blog. However, many of these people will monetize the blog if only to cover the cost of web hosting and the domain.

As you can see I am doing similar. After all this is a blog introducing you to Internet Marketing.
