Article Directory Marketing for Health Professionals

By Dr.David Enders

Income Strategy: Article Marketing

One of the most cost effective ways of driving targeted traffic to your website is with article directory marketing. Using relevant content on your website, article marketing helps to direct interested traffic directly to your site. Usually you are allowed one or two links in the author’s bio area. You will also gain backlinks to your website as other sites syndicate your article.

Please note that you want to write fresh, unique articles. Search engines can easily detect duplicate content, resulting in your site not being indexed and available when people use search sites like Google or MSN.

Article Directory Marketing Creates Traffic

If done correctly, just posting your articles to a few article directories can greatly increase traffic and page visibility. You may have the best service or product in the world, but if no one knows about it there is no sale.

You only need to sign up with a few article directories, most are usually free to join. To find directories you should Google "article directories". Here are a few that I would recommend: Ezines, Amazines, and EZE Directory.

Write often, the more the better. But keep it quality content while at the same time you don’t burn yourself out! When you write do it in your own style and keep it on a level that is easy for your target audience to read.

Using Images With Article Marketing

Don’t forget images. Photos and videos can be very powerful when properly placed in your article Many article directories allow you to place an image in the body of your article. You may also be able to insert a link to a video in your content.

Remember that your readers will respond better when they feel that the article was written by a "human" and not just a copy and paste article. An effective article causes people to want to click on one of your links. Don’t try to trick them with an over abundance of links, tow or three will do.

Relevant content and consistency are key factors in effective article directory marketing.
