Your current articles you've posted to your blogs could be building traffic or building e-mail lists for you much faster if you start to submit articles to article repositories regularly.
Posting your best articles to the best online article directories exposes your new articles to a huge potential audience, both at the article directories and on other people's blogs if they use your interesting articles as content. Popular articles can be one of the biggest sources of targeted traffic, thus helping you build opt-in lists and build targeted traffic.
And really, this article marketing strategy only makes sense. Most people start out looking for information, and Internet articles are one of the premiere source of new information. Every day thousands of new articles are published online, through article directories, blogs, Web 2.0 sites and the like.
So before posting those new articles to your blog, click over to the most important few directories and post your articles, taking care to be certain your Author's Resource Box leads back to your blog and squeeze page so that you're building targeted traffic that's targeted at building your opt-in list and your blog audience concurrently.
Be sure your new articles contain high-value content - trying to write an article just for it's search engine value is a basic mistake, since getting prospects to your submitted articles is only part of the job. The real trick is to get them totally absorbed in your articles' message, establish yourself as an authority on the topic, and motivate them to take action and head to your opt-in form or your blog. That requires both powerful information in your article AND solid, relevant info on your landing page.
One of the reasons that this method builds opt-in lists so well is that the prospect is looking for data on a topic, sees your article and then sees your link to additional info. Maximize your traffic generation from your articles by offering a bonus report, audio or video on the same question to people who sign up. This way the prospect gets what they need, while you're building traffic and building opt-in lists.
