Secret Article Marketing Strategy – for Traffic, Leads and Sales
Article Marketing Strategy
I’ve used an Article Marketing Strategy since I first came online as a marketer in 2009. It’s the single biggest reason that I’ve been able to generate 20 – 30 laser targeted FREE MLM leads every day and can now work from home full time. If you’re someone who’s looking to build their business online and, especially if you’re operating on a tight budget, I highly recommend that you implement an article marketing strategy yourself!
The way you make your content diverse when you produce articles for submission to an article promotion service or for your site, maintain that thought in mind for your article marketing strategy. The use of key phrases is very critical for every 1, and keyword and key phrase options are undoubtedly the way in which readers and Google uncover you giving your website site visitors. Every single keyword ought to be really cautiously chosen, then extra research undertaken to see which sites are employing those key phrases. You ought to constantly make a decision should you can possibly compete with the top internet sites that may possibly be utilizing those key phrases too.
Start Building your Article Marketing Strategy
If you do not like to write, or think you are not good at writing it is a good idea to spend some time reading some of the top articles in article directories. You’ll be able to see how they’re written and constructed and how they lead a reader down towards the author bio box in the bottom of the page. The best articles contain plenty of short paragraphs and they’re written in frequent language and that means not using too several complex words that your reader may possibly not understand. White space is really important too. Your reader should not be confronted with one thing that looks like a thesis, by getting several locations which are free of charge from words it will make your article seem to be less difficult and quicker to read. Do not put links to your website or other items inside the body of your article, your article may be rejected. They need to only be placed in your author bio box.
Your Headings Should Be Eye-Catching
Most folks may possibly not examine all of the words within the article. They’re seeking to uncover particular crucial phrases and expressions which will be essential to their primary difficulty and in the event you can use these in headings your reader can instantly move on towards the areas of your article content that interest him most. Successful titles are crucial in articles – they ought to be brief and effective.
How To Craft Your Article Body
Be specific to utilize keyword phrases 1 time at the beginning of your article, numerous times in the main body of the content (depending on the word count) and after that an additional time within the final sentence. Lots of people are on web web sites trying to find solutions to concerns or inquiries they have, and so you should make your article enlightening and beneficial, driving the reader down to the bottom of the page where your author bio, or resource box is. Inside the resource box is generally a call to action, motivating somebody to click by means of for further details. This really is the place exactly where your lead capture page will be.
Though you might be article writing to appeal towards the search engines, you ought to bear in mind it is men and women who’re reading your article. It does get considerably simpler right after you’ve crafted a variety of articles. Preserve an eye on your content regularly and figure out which ones are obtaining the most traffic and in that way it really is effortless to construct further articles using that approach. Utilizing bullet points also makes a content of written content material seem an excellent deal much more attractive along with basic to read.
If you have crafted your article you can reword it or “spin” it and submit it to 100s of other article marketing directories. That should be a big portion of your article marketing strategy. The purpose of rewriting them is so that each article is distinct towards the article directory you submit it to. Google will, only index one version of an article and disregard any further copies.
Would Jeremy Lin Be a Successful Network Marketer?
I’m a BIG NY Knicks fan, have been since the 70′s, and I have to admit that for much of the time this has been a hard team to root for. While the Knicks had a good run in the 90′s, unfortunately that was when Michael Jordan was in his prime so we never won the BIG one, I’ve experienced a LOT of losing. Recently, things have changed and are looking up for all Knicks fans thanks to “Linsanity”!
An unheralded and undrafted asian american point guard out of Harvard…
The most unlikely NBA success story. This 23 year old kid has come literally out of nowhere (technically, he came from the far end of the bench 
) and has captivated the entire sports world. The Knicks haven’t lost since he started playing 7 games ago and, more importantly, the franchise is relevant again and fun to watch.
How Can I Tie This Together?
So, I thought about how can I relate the Jeremy Lin “Story” to our network marketing industry? The truth is the Linsanity phenomenon has only happened because the kid persevered, would not take “NO” for an answer when nobody would give him a shot, and kept working to get better. These are EXACTLY the qualities you need to succeed in network marketing.
I mean, seriously, nobody was born to be a successful network marketer – particularly if you’re building online. Some people have a very charismatic personality and are “born salespeople” but 99% of us are not that way. We need to keep learning, hone our craft, and keep plugging away even if things may look bleak. We need to always keep our eye on our end goal and not stop until we get there.
Think about it…
When you joined your current biz op, did you think that you’d just start to magically make thousands of dollars and that you’d be plunking down cash to buy your first yacht within a year? You’d be jet-setting around the world? I know that the websites will have you believing that will be the case BUT seriously! I’m sorry if that’s what you thought. BUT, needless to say, reality has set in by now and you understand that it takes work and “getting your hands dirty” to become a successful entrepreneur.
What Are You Willing To Do For Your Network Marketing Business?
If you want to be the next “Jeremy Lin” of network marketing, you first need to know what your goals are and you also need to understand that you are actually “starting a business”. You need a “PLAN”. This industry is NOT rocket science, but it can be tricky. You need to learn how to generate leads, build relationships, and grow your business IF you want to play in the big leagues! Jeremy Lin kept plugging away honing his craft so he could be ready to perform on the BIG stage. Are you willing to do that?

The Advertising Net Review – Top Notch Advertising & Income Opportunity
I had the opportunity to speak with one of the owners of The Advertising Net last week for over an hour and came away very impressed. In this The Advertising Net Review, I’ll share with you what impressed me the most about the business. I will keep this review honest and unbiased. I’ll provide you with the facts so you can make your own educated decision and come to your own conclusions!
The Advertising Net Business Model
What impressed me the most about this company is the product. The Advertising Net’s product is advertising but not just your typical MLM crappy advertising but a real SEO based product. What you get for a $55/month advertisement is a search engine optimized website ad, complete with back links and keywords that you pick. The idea is to get your “ad” website to rank for your keywords on the 1st page of Google and the other search engines in order to drive targeted traffic to the website of your choice. I know that this an effective marketing strategy because it’s what I do when ranking my content on the search engines to get free traffic. The advertising packages can also be marketed to local businesses and sales people and not just network marketers. It’s always a real advantage if a company’s product can be retailed in addition to just being used to recruit other MLM’ers.
The Advertising Net Compensation Plan
This is the really exciting part of this review. You can get started for either $55 or $160, with no added “start up cost”. This means that there are no fast start bonuses but that’s OK because the comp plan is designed to get distributors into profit very quickly, which will help curb attrition. When distributors can get into profit very fast, there’s no reason to quit. It’s difficult to get into profit with most more expensive MLMs, which is what causes 70% of the people to quit within their first 90 days.
The compensation plan centers around a simple and fast-cycling 2×3 matrix. Everyone who joins is put into a 2×3 matrix and needs to fill only 14 positions – from their efforts, the efforts of their team, and spillover. After completing the 2×3, you’ll already be receiving $150 per month in residual income and be placed in the first of nine 2×4 matrices. The 2×4 matrix only takes 30 positions to complete and the residual commissions keep doubling as you move through the comp plan until getting to Royal Diamond which pays out over $153,000 per month.
In addition to commissions, The Advertising Net’s owners understand that having lifestyle bonuses like cars, mortgage payments, etc. help to keep distributors motivated. This program has what is believed to be the best “car program” in MLM. You are eligible for the car bonus just by completing your first 2×4 matrix with a total of 30 people on your team!
The Advertising Net Review Summary
While The Advertising Net is a brand new company, the business has been built for the long haul. The advertising product is unique and works. The owners are veteran successful full-time network marketers who have made a lot of money in this industry and know what works and what doesn’t. The combination of strong product, low cost to get involved, a compensation plan that gets distributors into profit quickly, and a lifestyle bonus plan that will keep distributors excited tells me that this is a business worth taking a look at.

Is Cash Gifting Legal or Just a Money Scheme?
Is Cash Gifting Legal
Today I’ve decided to tackle the controversial question in the home business industry…Is Cash Gifting Legal? It’s really a fascinating topic, I think, so I’ve done some research and wanted to share my findings with you.
Why did I choose to do this?
Ever since I got involved in the network marketing/home based business industry back in 2009, I’ve heard about cash gifting and seen the arguments between the 2 sides…”Yes, Cash Gifting is Legal” and “No Way is Cash Gifting Legal“. There is never anyone sitting in the middle of this debate! So who’s right?
One of the biggest reasons that I wanted to write on this topic is I get a lot of daily traffic to my blog from an article I wrote on the Cash Tracking System. I also get some traffic to an article I wrote on another popular Cash Gifting program called The Peoples Program. This tells me that there are a lot of people interested in the Cash Gifting activity as a potential income producer or, dare I say, business opportunity. So what’s the deal?
First of all, here’s a description of the cash gifting activity…By definition Cash Gifting (also referred to as “Cash Leveraging”) is the act of privately or publicly giving another person or entity a declared sum of cash, strictly as a gift and giving it freely without coercion or consideration. It is NOT a “quid-pro-quo” transaction where you offer something of equal or considerable value in exchange for cash. That would be NOT be considered a true cash gift.
We know that, at least in the US people are allowed to “gift” up to $13,000 per gift to anyone they want without tax consequences. Now, I’m not a lawyer or accountant but that tells me that cash gifting is legal.
The issue, and negative connotation, arises with cash gifting pyramids – these are usually matrix programs where people not at the TOP do not have a fair opportunity. These typically fizzle out leaving many out in the cold.
From my research, a “legal” cash gifting activity has a 1-Up compensation plan. This type of plan, besides being potentially very lucrative, is not pyramidal in nature. It doesn’t matter when you join. Everyone has the same opportunity to earn “gifts”. The last person in can out earn the first person. This is the case with most top tier direct sales businesses as well. That’s the way it should be in my opinion!
The biggest issue people have, when trying to determine if cash gifting is legal or not, is the fact that there’s no product. I don’t see that as an issue at all. Let’s face it, there are a lot of direct sales and network marketing businesses that just have some crappy eBooks or Digital products to “legalize” their program. Some are top-tier direct sales programs costing $1000′s for way overpriced products. What’s better? Then, you have to overcome the objection of “I don’t like your product”. Having no products has it’s advantage
It’s taken me a while to come around but I have. I’m here to tell you that I have no doubt that cash gifting is legal. It’s just another form of “program” that exists to help people earn income with their own home business.

Network Marketing Sucess…Are You 3 Feet From Gold?
Like I mentioned yesterday, I was starting to re-read Napoleon Hill’s Think and Grow Rich. It’s a timeless classic and really pertains to all of us and network marketing entrepreneurs.
The beginning of the book speaks about being “3 Feet From Gold”. I’ve heard this term for many years in the sales industry and it really is true. It’s the idea that when things look their bleakest and when you feel like throwing in the towel and giving up, that you just might be VERY CLOSE to finally achieving your goal – closing that sale or signing up that new distributor. The underlying message is to not give up.
Everyone who has ever achieved anything in life, particularly going against the norm and starting their own business or promoting their own product or idea, has run into difficulties at one time or another and could have given up. It took Thomas Edison hundreds of attempts to finally create a lightbulb that worked (where would we be today if he gave up?). Marconi’s friends, the father of the radio, sent him into psychiatric care when he told them he could broadcast sound over the air without wires…they thought he was nuts!
Bringing that thought to modern day, I remember when there was this new young company called Google who decided they were going to take on the search engine GIANT Yahoo. This was just crazy talk as everyone on the internet was using Yahoo. We know what happened there!
Talking sports, my favorite topic, the best hitters in baseball fail 7 out of every 10 times they step up to the plate.
The idea here is that nobody (except the marketing materials ) said that starting and building a successful online marketing or network marketing business was going to be easy. My friends thought I was crazy when I told them I was going to get involved in network marketing. I remember this like it was yesterday…one of them simply said… “Steve, I really don’t think that’s a very good idea. Nobody ever makes any money doing that. I’ll check to see if my company has any openings.”
That’s how the majority of people are conditioned to think and that’s OK. It makes the landscape that we work in wide open for those of us who don’t give up and keep focused on our end goal.
What is your end-goal?
Will you do whatever you have to to reach it?
Keep moving forward as if you’re just 3 Feet From Gold!
