Permanent Traffic Online Is Yours Through Writing Articles

By Richard Horowitz


Through writing articles you can benefit from free traffic - the right kind of traffic for your website. A short article, submitted to a few places, creates permanent streams of traffic. Since we don't want to bore you, we'll get to the chorus - just a few of the ways article writing could bring more website traffic:

Article bank click-throughs. People read your articles at an article bank, and click on the link in the "author's resource box."

Search engine traffic. Here's proof - if you enter "cheap international plane tickets" on Google, you will see a couple sites that include my article in there. And when people see that article, they can click through, and presto - they will be directed to my travel site.

Miscellaneous web addresses. You may or may not know it if somebody else is using your articles on their website, but most likely they are, if you receive reports of an unrecognized referral address.

Article Submission in a Nutshell

Newsletters and article banks will be more than happy to receive your articles. The neat thing about article banks is that they carry what are termed as "free-distribution articles" - anybody can use these articles for their blogs or websites or newsletters. Your link would have to remain active, as these articles can't be arbitrarily changed. The link will be found in the "resource box" - probably the most important part of your article, as this is where you will include your basic details and entice readers to take a look at your website.

If you post an article once then there is a good chance it could spread like wildfire and create permanent traffic. Why? Here's an example: I get search traffic for "mexico real estate" on my site HousesUnderFiftyThousand.com because of an article I used. The author gets clicks through to her site, but I get traffic - and revenue - so I'll never remove that article.

Easiest Article Writing - Fact or Fallacy?

Article writing isn't just for writers. Online articles do not need to be as detailed as, say, Bill Simmons' seamless meshing of sports and pop culture as ESPN's "Sports Guy", but if writing isn't really your cup of tea, then try a "list-article" instead. The reason this type of article online is such a big hit is because it is so simple to complete.

A title such as "Sell Like The Pros - eBay's Fab Five Sellers" can help you get started on a site that helps people earn through eBay. It's just as effortless as hard boiling an egg in a microwave oven - short intro paragraph, one or two sentences per item, personal details (but nobody wants to know about your first crush, first grade teacher, high school football jersey number, etc.) and you're good to go. You can create a dandy follow-up like "Seven Deadly Sins of eBay Customers" and you will definitely need something like that to appease the powers that be on that site. Article banks or repositories may or may not charge a fee, but most are free to use. However, this is just a quick guide to generate traffic with your articles - these are just the basics. If you really want a deep-dive, well, that's why we have a site dedicated just for that!
