The Importance of Articles in Web PromotionWritten by Adrian Kennelly
No doubt you have come accross this time and time again; to improve your websites popularity, search engine ranking etc., you need to write articles. You will also probably think, as I did, that I can't do this.There are ways around this. You can purchase rights to articles that will allow you to add your own resource box to bottom. The content may not be freshest and newest, and many others may be using same content or variations on it, but it is still content with your resource box tagged on at bottom. There are numerous article submission directories and sites on net, such as biggies like http://www.goarticles.com, to small ones like my own at http://www.directorygold.com/more/article/index.php. You will be able to submit your article, even if it isn't original, to some of these without duplicating existing content on article directory. This is what I did first. The next possibility is to go somewhere like http://www.elance.com, and pay someone to write articles for you. This is more expensive than first option, but has benefit that article is original, so it is more likely to be copied and published elsewhere. Also, make sure you have complete rights to material you commission, so that you may modify, relabel, or amalgamate into an ebook if you desire. Usually, you should get several decent articles for amount of money you spend. Finally, are you sure you can't write your own article? That you haven't found out something in your life that will be of interest to others? There is a huge list of possible article subjects at GoArticles and other sites, and you will be amazed at what you do know if you sit and think about it. After all, as I said earlier, I didn't think I was capable of writing an article, yet this is one I wrote myself, and it isn't my first. If you've made mistakes, an article describing how NOT to do something can be just as useful as one describing how to do something. If you still have problems coming up with a coherent article, jot down your notes and pay someone to ghostwrite it for you. Again, check sites like Elance for ghostwriters.

eBay is now world’s largest marketplace, so why not use this to advantage of you and your website? By creating an easy-to-use eBay Store and listing some of your more popular items at a small discount from price on your website, you can drive traffic from eBay back to your website as well as creating sales and revenue for your company through eBay. eBay’s Store fees are nominal and can usually be paid off from profit of just a few small sales a month. eBay's Stores are set up to where your item can be relisted automatically saving you your valuable time and making maintenace of your eBay Store effortless.eBay does have rules about advertising for a site outside of eBay within an Item Description, but with some creative writing and your imagination you should be able to work around these while still providing an outbound link from your Item Description to your own website. One way of doing this is to use a link to your website saying that eBay users can click on it for more product information about item that is for sale on eBay.
