Starting a home business is exciting but can be scary as well.
Regardless if you are just supplementing your income or using it for a primary source of income it can be a daunting task.
Knowing how to market your business on the internet can take a lot of the scare factor out of the equation while helping you build a limitless client base.
When you already have a website in place and it doesn't appear to be getting many hits, article marketing is one cost effective way to get the hits, improve your Google ratings, market your business and build your income for little monetary investment.
You are already passionate about your business or you wouldn't be in it and you want to see it succeed.
The biggest aspect of article marketing is being passionate about your business and being able to express this in words.
If you are not comfortable with your writing skills or if you have writer's block, you can always outsource the article writing until your confidence builds.
That is what article marketing is all about, generating articles about your business, publishing them on various article publishing site (most are free to do so), starting blogs, and adding content articles to your site that gets your company's name out there.
The articles themselves should represent who and what you are, what the product is about, and educate your readers; not be a hard sell.
Give them something they can take from it and want to read more.
It should be unique.
For example, if you are selling skin care products, you want to educate people about their skin and proper ways to take care of it.
Look at all aspects of it, not just what your products claim for fame is, like, if you sell a wrinkle remover, articles could be about skin care, why people get wrinkles, preventive measures, alternatives measures, diet to improve skin appearance, the value of water, etc.
In each article, you will have solid keywords that will help your article show up in Google ratings.
Do a keyword search on your product and use them throughout your article.
You will have to learn how to use the right density of keywords however, too many can knock you out of ratings as well, plus it does not make for a reader friendly article.
Your resource box or author box is what will bring the readers to your page.
Link your article to more content on your website that will give the reader more education and not necessarily to a product link.
That is where articles on your website will help in the link back.
On your actual website, within the articles there you can have link backs to the actual products you are talking about with the price and how to order.
When starting an online business through multilevel marketing (MLM) companies you want to make sure you first know what their restrictions are on using the internet to build your business or market.
Most MLM allow the use of internet marketing to generate leads.
The internet is a successful way to attract new leads for free; however some are restrictive in the direct sales aspect and prefer you continue the face to face for sales purposes, however you can direct them to your website for purchases which can help you make money in the long run.
I am always happy to help and provide a resource for people who are curious about using article marketing to build their home based business.
