30 Facts for the Article Marketing Newbie

In the course of my research on article writing, I take lots of notes and enter them into a file. I have pages and pages of facts relating to article marketing. Unfortunately, I rarely note the source of these facts. So, I apologize for not giving proper credit to the original sources. However, I thought this list might be quite helpful to those who are new to article writing. And, I’ve sprinkled in a fact or two to amuse the veteran writer.

Be timeless with your articles; write articles that will still be relevant in a year.
Learn enough to become the expert in your field.
Write short, interesting articles of about 400-700 words. They didn’t come to read a novel!
More people read articles on weekdays. (I guess this says a lot about our work ethic!)
Fewer articles are submitted on weekends.

Write about only one thing, in ever-deepening detail, so you become an acknowledged expert in your field.
Educate your readers.
After your 300th article, business may be pretty good, but you still won’t be making a livable wage.
When writing an article, always keep your reader in mind.
Write an attention grabbing title that compels the viewer to read further.

Always offer a free report of some kind.
Your long-term success depends upon the quality and quantity of your list.
Use high-ranking keywords in your title as well as your article.
By 2006, there were about 2 billion websites on the Internet.
The Internet is the television of future.

Article marketing is here to stay (hopefully).
Your title has to jump out and grab them.
For each article you write, design a targeted resource box.
Longer titles trend to attract more page views.
Having a website will make doing business much easier.

When you begin to bring in some money, reinvest a portion of the proceeds back into your business.
You can make much, much more money by selling your own products.
Create your own product as soon as possible.
Buy a Domain name, get an autoresponder, and upgrade your web hosting as soon as possible.
The use of pre-sale pages will increase your sales dramatically.

‘How to’ articles are always very popular.
More links are not necessarily better.
Great articles have great titles that attract readers.
Always use software to check your spelling and grammar.
Design a separate resource box for each article you write.

If you are new to writing articles, I recommend that you create a file for random facts like I have compiled here. On those days when I’m suffering from writer’s block, my file on article facts will always come to my rescue. Even if it’s a silly article like this one with no common theme. Sorry about that.
