The ebook called “Article Marketing Domination” by Josh Spaulding contains some interesting and very useful information if you use, or are considering using articles for marketing your online products or services.

Josh makes many practical suggestions, but perhaps the most important are:

1. Don’t get hung up on writing primarily for link building purposes. Write for your human readers so you will get clicks on the links in your resource box. Drive traffic by writing quality content and drawing readers to your embedded links.

2. If you are using an article distribution service such as isnare.com or articlemarketers.com you are probably not maximizing your article marketing efforts.

These are what I call “old style” article distribution services, and I too stopped using these services about two years ago. Why? Because they distribute the exact same article to hundreds of relatively low quality article sites - resulting in what is essentially article spam.

They may also miss the most important article sites such as ezinearticles, articledashboard and ideamarketers.com (along with several others). These are the sites that get the most traffic, are considered most important in the eyes of the search engines, and are usually the most picky in terms of article quality. Because of these things they will drive the most traffic to your sites.

Josh suggests you should focus primarily on the five or six most important sites - make sure your articles get into those directories - especially ezinearticles.com. He also makes some very useful suggestions about dominating your niche(s) in ezinearticles.com and getting even more readership and links back to your articles.

I highly recommend “Article Marketing Domination” by Josh Spaulding.
