Implementing article marketing strategies are a great way to build traffic, website backlinks and credibility on your site topic so I wanted to share my all-time top three article marketing strategies that you should consider to help build your e-business.

The first one is the most obvious. . .

#1. Use articles to market your website!

Write articles related to your niche and submit them to just a few highly ranked article directories. (You are writing articles frequently aren't you?)

#2. The second article marketing strategy is to write great, knock-the-socks-off keyword rich headlines so that people will want to select your article to read.

There is nothing more boring than seeing a list of articles with titles that say absolutely nothing about what the content is going to be- like Car Repair or Stock Market. Not many people are going to click on those titles to read the article. They are boring. They say very little about the content.

Rather write a headline that will inspire people to click through to read the rest of what you have to say. Try something a bit more interesting like, Simple Car Repair Techniques for the Mechanically Challenged or Basic Stock Market Tips for Beginners that will Increase Anyone's Portfolio.

#3. My last top article marketing strategy is to write an interesting and captivating author resource that includes an anchor keyword text link back to a related page on your site. Don't write a boring statement! You want the reader of your article to find out more and to encourage them to click through to your site. Make your author resource box interesting and intriguing.

(Of course, the content of the article needs to be interesting, helpful and informative as well.)

That's the whole point of article marketing isn't it?

To build traffic, generate a loyal and interested visitor who you can eventually cultivate into a potential customer!

These three simple article marketing strategies will give you far more return on your efforts and you will see that your well written articles will also help you to build your e-business into a successful online ecommerce website. . .
