Are you looking for a free way to promote your website and/or products?

Article marketing is one of the easiest ways to promote your website. It will generate lots of traffic and also increase your earnings.

How does this work?

Basically you write articles relating to your website and submit them to content submission sites. This is easy to do and takes only a small amount of time but can drastically increase your website traffic, sales and of course, your income.

Here is a link to a list of the top 50 Article directories:

So you want to know how article writing can boost your traffic and income?

This is how it works. Your article is posted to certain article directories. Your author bio is attached to the article and contains a link to your website. Readers, after reading your articles, may choose to click on the link and pay you an unexpected visit. Having them on the article directories also makes them available to other webmasters who may wish to publish that article on their site.

If they use your article, it must include a link back to your site. So anyone who reads the article can click on the link and visit your site.

As the list of your published articles grows, and more and more of them are appearing on different websites, the total number of links to your site increases. The search engines place a lot of significance on incoming links to websites and use that to determine the importance of a certain site.

The more incoming links a website has the more importance the search engines attach to it. This will in turn increase your website's placement in the SERPs (search engine results page).

If your site is promoting a product or service, the links that your articles will mean more potential customers for you. Even if visitors only browse through, you never know if they might be in need of what you are offering in the future.

There are also those who already have specific things they need on their mind but cannot decide yet between the many choices online. Chances are, they may stumble upon one of your articles, become interested in the contents you wrote, go to your site and become enticed by your promotions.

Isn't that easy?

Search engines do not just index the websites, they also index published articles. They also index any article that is written about your own website's topic. So once someone searches for that same topic, the list of results will have your site or may even show the articles that you have written.

And to think, no effort on your part was used to bring them to your site. Let the published articles and the search engines do all the work for you.
