Submit your Article to Article Content Directories

Article directories are internet’s free content hubs. These are sites that many web marketers use to pull free content for there audiences. These sites contain multiple categories - more than likely you will be able to find a suitable category to submit your article or report. Once you find correct category simply submit your article.

These sites are truly great in my opinion because once you have submitted your content your done. Other webmaster will find your article and post it to there site or use it in there online newsletter. The result is this will expose your article to more webmasters and web publishers who will in turn use take your content. If you’ve done your homework and delivered an article to an audience that is hungry for your information results can be truly amazing. Posting your article once can literally start a chain reaction that can lead to your article being posted on hundreds or even thousands of websites which in turn means more free links and traffic to your desired site or affiliate program.

There are literally thousands of content directories online and trend looks as if these types of site are going to be on rise in 2005. Where should you submit your content? I say start with www.goarticles.com, www.ideamarketers.com, and www.ezinearticles.com. You’ll find more specific sub directories for your topic by doing a few search engine searches for your specific topic + “submit articles”. As a general rule you will probably get largest amount of traffic from major article directories, but more is always better. The more places that display your content with your links higher probability that someone will find it and use it. A quick tip… as you find new directories keep a running list as this will come in handy for you as you get hang of using free content for profit and traffic and start creating more articles and reports to give away.

Tips to Help You Help Your Audience Distribute Your Content FASTER:

Now your content is in front of your hungry audience and things are going well. You’re getting traffic and or you’re making a few affiliate sales. Here are a few tips to help you speed up distribution of your content so you can get more traffic and more sales per article or report faster.

Tip 1: Let your audience know that your article or report is available for reprint.

I know you probably think this is too simple to really matter - your audience already knows that your content is available for free reprint because it’s in a FREE content directory. Your right, but we have to think ahead… what about when your article is picked up by other webmasters and they post your content on there site? Will new audience know that your article is freely available for reprint? Some will and some won’t. To make sure that everyone knows that your content is available for free reprint no matter where it’s posted you have to let them know. Just add a short blurb in your resources box that say that article reader is currently reading is available for free reprint. Now no matter where your article is posted there will be no question as to whether or not it is available for free reprint.

Another point on this tip, many who read your articles may not be in mindset of seeking content to publish. By letting your readers know that they can freely republish your content you open an entirely new possibility to many of your reads that they had not considered (just a subtle behavioral psychology point to consider).

Tip 2: Show your audience how they can benefit by using your free content.

Money talks! Show your readers how they can make money by republishing your content and they will be much more likely to use it. How can your audience make money using your content? There are two simple ways to help others make money with your content; show them how to add PPC ads to your article so that when they post your article to there site they’ll generate revenue from clicks-thrus or allow them to change any affiliate links in article or report to there own so that they are able to profit from affiliate sales generated (if you do this I suggest that you use 2 tier affiliate programs so that you profit as well).

Tip 3: Make it as simple and easy as possible for others to use your content

The easier you make it for people to use your content more likely it will be that they use it. Keep things simple! One thing I like to do to keep things simple is I keep a page on my website that displays all of my free web site content for reprint so that my visitors can easily find ALL of my resources available for reprint in ONE place. On that page I add a copy and paste version of my resource box (which of course included a link to my free web site content page) so my visitors don’t have to worry about doing anything more than copying and pasting what they want to use. To get e better idea of what I’m talking about check out my free web site content page here http://www.perfect-home-based-business-opportunities.com/free-web-site-content.html.

Conclusion: That’s it…

If you want to profit from free content I have given you everything that you need to make a pretty penny online using free website content same way major search engines do. Do you remember formula I gave you before?

GOOD FREE CONTENT + LINKS = TRAFFIC or PROFIT

Remember this and you cannot fail!

However,

I have a confession to make…

What I have given you here is incomplete. There is no doubt that you can use above information to create a good income from free content, but if you want to take your info publishing skills to next level. If you want to create a large residual and growing income from your content publishing efforts you’re going to need more help than I can give you here in this report. You’re going to need proper guidance and best in industry info content publishing tools. So, as a final recommendation and to make this report truly complete I’ll leave you with one final recommendation.

To make above system complete, even easier to follow, and exponentially more profitable my final and strongest recommendation to you is software, tools, and instructions available by mailing to comlev1@getresponse.com
