Following is a list of 5 key ways that content can help build your traffic, subscribers, and customers starting today!...

1. One of best ways to generate no cost traffic is by submitting ready-made articles to "content hungry" web-site and newsletter publishers with your "resource box" attached. A resource box is nothing more than a little 3-6 line "bio" about you and/or your web-site - including a link to your site (or even instructions on how to subscribe to your newsletter)...

When submitting or offering your article(s) for reprint purposes, just make sure to specify that each article is to be reprinted "as is" with your resource box attached.

...Even one article can go a LONG way towards generating no cost traffic and visitors for you. Just imagine your article being sent out to a newsletter subscriber base of 100,000 individuals - many of whom will be reading YOUR included resource box and clicking on your URL to learn more about what you have to offer.

Plus having your article and resorce box posted on a website will increase you link popularity. This is an excelent way to increase your search engine ranking.

2. Boost your search engine ranking and daily visitor count by posting keyword rich articles and content on your web-site. For example, if your business involves offering products and services related to fitness, posting fitness related articles and content will attract unlimited prospective customers on a regular basis!

Ezine Advertising is one of most powerful ways to market and promote your other products and or services. There are literally thousands of electronic newsletters on Internet with millions of people who subscribe to them. Placing ads in online newsletters is an inexpensive way to reach your target market quickly -- especially when you compare it with other forms of advertising.

In 2002, ezine publishing took a quantum leap, as its status evolved from "amateur's hobby" into becoming most powerful marketing tool for business online. Email newsletters have come of age, and increasingly, more ezines will take this route, as subscribers prefer them to drab, lack-luster text-only ezines. In coming year we'll see more ezines published.

There are tens of thousands of Ezines being published every month, with a collective audience of millions. And editors of most of those Ezines are all looking for quality content for their newsletters.

If you master this technique of making Ezine viral you can get your name and your website URL in front of 100,000 or even a million readers.

Tips for making ezine viral

Pick a topic that you know something about and then go to Search Engines and find as many websites as you can that deal with that subject.

As well as collecting information for your article, make a note of any URLs that offer free resources dealing with topic of your article. Include those URLs in your article.

You should choose a topic very carefully. Once topic is selected, doing enough research on subject is vital. Organize material and write in an interesting style. Make sure that you provide links to free resources.

The content in your Ezine should not be pure sales copy. There has to be valuable and genuine information. Promotion of your product or service should be subtle. Viral marketing using Ezine is different than running an E Mail marketing campaign that blasts millions of mail messages to unsuspecting readers.
