Just a heads up for some few marketers who are new to article marketing.
1. Never blatantly advertise your niche or product in your article, write an article that’s informative and worthy for reprints. The blatant ads should be in your resource box.
2. Always keep your resource box short, 300 to 350 characters including spaces should be more than enough.
3. Always include you site URL, email or contact number in your resource box. Do not forget to include http:// when writing your URLs.
4. Never ever try to format the title with HTML tags, you may laugh at this but I have seen some.

The 15th Site!
Sounds like a movie title huh… Actually it means that I have completed the 15 sites due for this week.
Those 15 sites are the article directory sites that we will be submitting your articles for distribution. The chances of getting more reprints and traffic is actually doubled since we are now sending articles to article announcement/distribution lists of over 100+ depending on the topic of the article AND these article directory sites…
Then again the number does not stop at 15 ;-), there will be more sites to be added everyday!

Aside from the 150+ article announcement and disribution lists we have in our database, now we can also submit articles for distribution to 14 sites. See the forums for the list.
These sites are also article distribution clearing houses, meaning they are like iSnare.com which offers publishers free reprint.
Target for this week is 15, just 1 more to go then!

Today I just got a message from “Studio Varuag & EDM Edimag” asking for permission to reprint an article they got from [aadbusiness] groups (an article distribution group), one of the groups we are sending articles to, for distribution in our article distribution service.
Though I still have no idea of what article they want to reprint in their magazine (article title was not included in the email), but it’s a good thing to know that they did notify us and informed us that they are interested to reprint and so we can forward the request to the authors.

Let me tell everyone a little secret about iSnare.com’s article search engine…
It’s a search engine that searches the database for every keyword you enter in the search box. The secret is that to be able to find an exact match of the phrase, use quotes (” “). For example you want to search for “family tree”, inputting the phrase without the quotes will give you results from the keywords family and tree. Where as if you search for “family tree” with the quotes then it will give you the results of the exact phrase…

3000 words, WOW! What a big amount of words for an article…
Not unless you want to write a short story or a long how-to guide, my advice is write free reprint articles only with 250 to 1200 words.
Webmasters and ezine publishers will not love articles with over 1800 words, remember you are hoping that your articles to be reprinted in ezines and websites not in a newspaper

31… A big number for 1 author.
It’s not the number of articles that iSnare.com recieves everyday, we have a little over 50 to a 100 articles everyday “but” this time the 31 articles are all from Glenn Murray.
It is a fact, and I know that this author knows that fact. That if you are into article marketing, to be able to maximize your result is to send at least 12 to 25 articles per month. Sending 2, 5 or 10 articles will not maximize your article marketing campaign results…
So, keep writing and send your articles at iSnare.com

It’s not enough to just sit around and expect that your articles will bring you a good amount of traffic right after you submitted your articles for distribution.
Might as well think of some factors… Is your article worthy to be reprinted? Do the content and title ring a bell to most webmasters and publishers?
Questions like these are just some of the many factors that could greatly affect your article distribution results.
Some basic factors are:

Simple…
Do you want to build your brand as an author or as an expert? Then writing free reprint articles is a F R E E way to do so…
Article marketing is not entirely writing informative articles to help gain targeted traffic for your site via the author’s resource box; there is more to it than just traffic. It is building a “brand”, a “what people say” and a “what people think” kind of thing…

f-r-e-e, f*r*e*e and f.r.e.e are just 3 of the most famous ways on how to insert the word FREE in an Ezine Article so the message will not go into the bulk folder as SPAM.
It is a great idea but not a wise thing to do. You are actually degrading your credibility as an author in exchange for SPAM filter acceptance. My point is, formatting those common SPAM words in your Ezine Articles to bypass the filter does not look very professional and credible to the reader. For me it is a great “turn-off”…
