Simple Article Marketing Trick That Will Double Your Traffic

Something that i started to do recently was to target two or even three keywords in my articles i submit to www.ezinearticles.com. It has really driven more traffic to my Adsense pages more then a single keyword article ever could.

To do this i go the the free Google keyword tool and find my first keyword. I shoot for medium competition with this keyword with under 20,000 competing pages when searched in quotes

The next keyword i try for slightly less so maybe 10,000 competing pages when searched in quotes.

I will then use these two keywords in the title and try and keep the keyword density the same for each keyword. I like to keep it at 1-1.5%

I put the keyword with the most search competition first in the title.

The results have been literally amazing, the article traffic has doubled and my earnings got a slight bump. Plus it is very easy to do. I am currently going back over some old articles t modify them in this manner.

I wish i had started doing this when i first started article marketing and for the life of me I cannot figure out why i didn't?

What Is Article Marketing

Article marketing is my method of choice for driving targeted interested visitors to my webpages. Now this is not a new concept but it is one that is often overshadowed by other fancier and methods that claim to be more effective ways to get traffic.

While there maybe fancier and more glamorous ways to get traffic, in my opinion nothing beats article marketing, well maybe Pay per click but that costs money and article marketing is free!

Article marketing is a simple concept. You write quality informative articles and submit them to the top article directories on the internet. In return for publishing your article the directories give you a resource box that you can put a link to your websites in. One good article can send thousands of visitors to your site in a short amount of time.

Along with the traffic directly from the article directories many blog and website owners will use your articles as site content. When done correctly they are supposed to leave your resource box in place with your links tact. This will provide you additional backlinks as well as the potential to siphon off some traffic from sites who publish your articles.

Top Article Directories that have worked well for me.

Ezinearticles (the best directory period)

Amazines

Article Dashboard

Go Articles (instant approval)

Afro Articles (500 word minimum)

Buzzle

Article Cube

One of the ways you can ensure that your articles receive good traffic is to do some simple keyword research. I use free wordtracker for this job. Its very easy to use, just enter your keyword in the box and the 100 most popular keywords for that phrase will come up.

I write my articles around the lower competition keywords that no one wants because they offer little search volume of 2-5 per day. These are easy to rank for and drive traffic to the articles and my sites very well. I would rather dominate 100 smaller keywords rather then 1 big one because if you lose 1 of 100 its no big deal but losing 1 of 1 is. Plus there is just safety in numbers that make me comfortable.

If you make an effort to sit down and write one article per day and focus on driving traffic to one site you will see a rise in traffic and in income.

Adsense SEO-Optimizing Your Site For Adsense

If you've been using Google's AdSense on your pages you obviously feel the need to somehow generate even more traffic for your website, which in turn would translate to more AdSense click and a higher income.

But who do you do this? Well, the major way you'll get visitors to see your website (other then using AdWords, which is encouraged as well) is to use some techniques to have search engines send more and more users towards your page, by ranking high in search results for your topics of interest.

Believe it or not this is a technique, better known as search-engine optimization or simply SEO. So here are a bunch of tips that come handy under every amateur or professional optimizer's belt.

The first thing you need to take care of is the actual source code and layout of your page. This has to be kept as simple as possible. The problem comes when AdSense and the search engines themselves begin to have troubles in extracting the most relevant keywords on your site because of a too complex layout.

Secondly, try to have each one of your pages target only one specific topic. This way it is a lot easier for them to get indexed properly and for the AdSense ads to be consistent with the content of the site itself.

Also, try not to include too many hyperlinks in your page as well. This also means you should try not to use too many AdSense ads on your page either.

If there are certain keywords you wish to target, make sure the word you wish to target is present in the title, in the first paragraphs as well as in the name of the file. While you're at it you might want to ensure the word springs up in the page's last paragraphs.

And of course, it's very important for your content to have original and compelling content. How do you do this? Well the easiest way to do it is to find something you're really passionate about. That way, providing you give it a lot of effort you're bound to have a great page quite fast.

If the content you use in your site is in the public domain (which is highly discouraged) make sure that you at least give it an original title, and add an opening and a closing paragraph of your own.

This takes a little while, but if, after waiting, you still can't find your page near the top, you should try rewriting your title and your first and last paragraphs. It doesn't take much, often just changing a few words will give you the right results.

And of, course there's the use of keyword tools that may aid you in finding some good keywords to include on your page that will drive visitors to your site more and more.

So those are about the basic techniques in search engine optimization. You can find a lot of computer tools to aid you in doing this, and of course, Google is a great place to search for this.

In the end, you'll find that SEO is a complex topic, and entire books have been written on the topic as well. You might find that you have a lot of optimization you need to do in order to get more and more visitors to your site and clicking those precious AdSense banners.
