Search engines prefer specifics also; general sites don’t rate as well. They reward focused, keyword-rich topics with improved rankings. Spiders don’t care if you wrote content yourself or used work of other authors. But they do rely on your links and sitemap, so they can index it all.

Add Your Own Personal Input to Every Article You Post

Take time to add a paragraph above each article on your site - 80 to 100 words is plenty. Like a cordial host, introduce information or author ahead. Build anticipation so they’re eager to keep reading. Employ keywords shown in your title and header tags. DO NOT ALTER THE ARTICLE ITSELF. That would violate author’s copyright, and it’s not necessary.

At bottom of article (after author’s Sig) add another paragraph of your own. - Summarize it - Link to other articles along same line - Recommend resources - Insert affiliate links or products you sell

Reuse page-specific keywords in bottom paragraph. Although that article also appears on other sites, your version is now unique to search engines. Most submitted articles appear in multiple websites, directories, and ezines. Adding new language personalizes it, while avoiding possibility of a duplicate content penalty.

You’re also building a personal connection to readers, as they begin to identify your voice and online personality. That goes a long way toward return visits.

Package Articles in an Organized Way

Don’t dump every article together in one long list. Cluster them into logical sub-categories which aid site navigation. Add links between articles and related pages on your site. Although everyone knows incoming links can boost Page Rank, links within your site (internal) benefit your rankings as well (though to a lesser degree). And they’re 100% within your control. Besides, ample links help visitors move confidently around your website.

Despite infinite supply of online articles, most dish out recycled stuff that everyone’s seen before. Avoid that trap with information that’s a cut above. Take trouble to carefully select articles that provide extra value. Then by adding your own voice and unique comments you please both human readers and search engines. And that’s a winning strategy all around.

I could use more specialized methodology to find out what I need to know but at this stage in development a piece of wacky marketing won’t hurt.

Call it what you will but I reckon it’s a form of inverted thinking: turning project upside down and starting back to front; first sales pitch coupled with research, then product creation.

And an amazing thing happened as I was crafting web copy…

My project began to take off in disparate directions, adding new dimensions I hadn’t even considered before, and presenting me with additional challenges to devise an even better product.

Will my wacky marketing work?

I can’t be certain - but you know what they say - nothing ventured, nothing gained.
