Article Marketing – the Writing Mindset
By Deb Gallardo
Today’s guest article is from my good friend Jeff Herring. If you’re using articles to promote a website, a book or another type of product, Jeff is the go-to guy. In this post he discusses the importance of getting into the creative mindset of coming up with article ideas. He also says what I often mention here at The Story Ideas Virtuoso – as ideas come to you, write them down!
Whether it’s story ideas or article ideas, you still need to learn how to see what’s right in front of you. There is a wealth of information just waiting to be written about as only you are able to do in your own unique way. And according to Jeff, there are more people out there who are waiting for someone just like you to communicate your message on their wavelength than you ever could imagine.
Be sure to check out the link to his article marketing club at the end of this post. The amount and quality of his multimedia training materials (which cover all aspects of building a profitable online information business – and that includes novels) are phenomenal. And he conveys it all through teleseminars – hence the name. You owe it to yourself to see what he’s offering. This guy is a true gem!
Practical Article Writing Tips -
Can You Become a Content Creating Machine
With Article Marketing?
By Jeff Herring
Article marketing is a great way to become a content creation machine, regularly pumping out great quality content to build and grow your community.
If you’ve been marketing on the internet for more than 5 minutes, you have probably heard the phrase “content is king.” I like to think of it this way – content is king and queen on the internet, so therefore “content is royalty” on the internet.
And it always will be. With the advent of audio, video and social networking, you sometimes hear that the internet will no longer be content based.
Huh?
Please tell me how you can have the internet without content? Whether it is in the form of text, audio or video, the internet is content driven and always will be.
Where Article Marketing Comes In
Most Internet Marketers struggle with creating content. In fact, this is where many beginning marketers crash and burn. Or sell out to PLR products that anyone can put their name on.
When you are an article marketer, you become a constant content creator. Have you thought about it that way yet? When you regularly craft a 300 – 500 word article, you are in the habit of regularly creating content and can quickly move ahead of all others in your niche.
Getting Enough Ideas on a Regular Basis
Getting enough ideas for regular content creation with article marketing is a mindset. As you begin to look around your world through “article writing glasses” you will begin to see ideas for articles in your niche everywhere. I call this beginning to see your niche through “article eyes.”
Now this next part is going to sound corny I know, but once you start to see your area of expertise through article eyes, you are then able to article-ize your expertise.
As your ideas come, and they will in an ever increasing flood, I recommend that you have a regular way to capture them. Carry a small notepad with you, use a voice recorder or Flip Video camera, something, just capture those ideas, ok?
And as you follow these steps you will find yourself becoming a prolific content creator with article marketing.
