Whether you are just starting out w
ith your online business or you are
 seasoned pro, writing and distribu
ting articles is one of the most ef
fective and low-cost ways to drive
lots of targeted traffic to your si
te. Writing articles and submitting
 them to the article directories wi
ll get you free traffic when people
 click on the link in your resource
 box. It is also a great way to imp
rove search engine rankings, since
you will have plenty of incoming li
nks to your site. Let’s take a look
 at how you can get started writing
 articles. Here are a few tips to g
et you started.

Write a Top Ten List

An easy way to get started with an
article is to come up with a Top Te
n List. Find a topic related to you
r business and jot down ten reasons
 why someone should purchase your p
roduct or offer advice on a topic t
hat’s related to your website. Exam
ples would be top ten ways to get y
our baby to sleep through the night
, top ten reasons to write articles
, or top ten reasons to buy car ins
urance. Once you have your list of
ten items, write a little paragraph
 about each, explaining the reason
in a little more detail.

Next you add an introductory paragr
aph that pulls the reader into your
 list. For example an introduction
to the baby sleeping through the ni
ght article could mention how hard
it is to make it through the day an
d how sleep deprived you are until
you get your baby to sleep through
the night. Then close your article
either by summing up what you just
told them in your top ten lists or
encouraging them to act on what you
 just told them about.

Congratulations, you just wrote an
article. Of course you can easily s
horten this to a top 5 list. Just w
rite a little more about each of yo
ur points.

Record Your Article

Some people prefer recording themse
lves while they are talking about a
 particular topic and then transcri
bing and editing it into an article
. If you have an easier time talkin
g about a particular topic than wri
ting about it, this may be a great
option for you. Most MP3 players no
w come with a record option, or you
 can pick up a cheap tape-recorder.
 Pick a topic and just start talkin
g as if you were explaining it to a
 friend. Just start babbling and th
e ideas will start to flow. Now lis
ten to your tape. Write down and ar
range the major points you mad in o
rder. Add an intro and a closing an
d you have another article.

Hire a Ghost Writer

If you are having a hard time writi
ng articles, or just don’t have the
 time to do it, you can still benef
it from article marketing by hiring
 a ghostwriter. Ghost Writers will
write unique articles for you that
become your intellectual property.
You can post them as your own work
to your site, your blog, as well as
 the article directories. You can f
ind a ghost writer on sites like el
ance. There are also some freelance
 writers with their own websites ou
t there. You can usually buy articl
es anywhere from $5 – $65.

Write an Outline and Have Someone E
lse Turn it into an Article

Another option if you don’t want to
 do all the writing yourself is for
 you to write a basic outline of th
e article and the point you want to
 bring across. Jot down any ideas y
ou have for the article, then ask a
 friend or hire someone to flesh it
 out for you into an article. You m
ay be more comfortable with passing
 these articles off as your own, si
nce the content of the article was
your original idea. Someone else ju
st put it into an article format fo
r you.

There is no reason for you not to g
et started with article marketing o
ne way or the other. Get a few arti
cles out there and then sit back an
d watch the traffic come in. You’ll
 be so impressed by the results you
 can get even from a handful of art
icle, you’ll be writing them and su
bmitting them all the time.
