Actually, if you forget about your article now you may be missing out on some of most important benefits that can be gained from writing ezine articles. Listed below are 5 ways to get more benefits from your already published ezine articles.

1. Submit URLs of Published Article to Search Engines

Many times people will like your article enough to post it on their website. Once you find URL where your article is published try submitting it to some search engines. The webmaster probably won't mind but a email asking for their permission can't hurt. Additionally, if your article is published in an ezine that is archived on a website you can submit URL of issue of ezine that your article appeared in. If it's a well-designed site search engines may except submission and your article may start appearing in search results all over Net.

I recommend using free search engine submission sites like: http://www.addme.com or http://www.submitexpress.com

2. Submit Article Bank URLs to Search Engines

When you post your articles to article banks like Ultimateprofits.com or Ezadsuccess.com, your articles are posted on their own webpage. Submitting URL for this page to search engines can bring added readers to your writing. I tried this tip a while back and truthfully I forgot that I even did it. Recently, I was surprised to find that a few of article bank URLs that I had submitted were actually in some of major search engines!

3. Post Your Articles on Your Own Website

All Internet marketing, at bottom line, is about selling something, either a product or service. The goal being to serve your customers and thereby earn a profit. New marketers often get started as an affiliate, receiving a commission selling for others. And that's a great way to start, because from there you can learn about Internet marketing in general, technology behind it, and how to match a market to a product.

Sooner or later though most marketers want to offer at least some of their own products and services. They may still rely on affiliate programs to generate extra profits, but they want to establish a name and product for themselves. This helps balance and diversify income, especially if marketer doesn't concentrate only on Internet marketing niche.
