Article Marketing: How To Drive MASSIVE Traffic To Your Online Articles

Once you have created the article and sent it to a plethora of article directories, you need to divert your attention to sending traffic to this article.

Certainly if you have sent your article to quality article directories such as eZine Articles, your articles will receive traffic organically. This will happen naturally as search engine spiders visit high PR article directories regularly and index new content. Therefore your article should commence getting traffic from search engine indexing.

However, you need to execute an article marketing strategy that explodes the flow of traffic to that article.

I have used the following 7 methods and noticed very strong surges of traffic as a result.

1. Send Your Article Link to Social Bookmarking Sites
Social Bookmarking is a proven social media optimization strategy. By simply sending your article title, description and link to these social book marking sites, you will notice a surge in traffic.

Several of these sites are particularly powerful. I recommend focusing particularly on digg, stumbleupon and delicious. Be sure to cover your title and description with keywords.

Very often these 'keyword dense' book marks get high ranking on Google. Use a free service such as 'Social Marker' to submit your bookmarks at the click of a button.

2. Tweet Your Articles Link
Assuming you have a Twitter account and have built up a following, tweet a link to the article to your followers. This will cause an instant surge in traffic. Use eZineArticles.com's 'auto tweet' feature so that every time you post a new article, it automatically tweets it through your twitter account.

3. Email Your List
A powerful way to drive instant traffic to your article is to email a link to your list. Actively encourage your list to 'subscribe' to your author account on eZineArticles.com's. That way they will receive an automatic notification every time you post a new article.

4. Message Your Facebook Friends
Use an application such as Friend Blaster Pro to automatically message your friends on Facebook with a link to the article.

5. Post You Link as answers to questions on Yahoo Answers
Simply go to Yahoo Answers and search for questions relevant to the topic area of you article. If your article provides a suitable answer to someones question, paste the opening paragraph of your article along with a link that reads; "Click here to read the rest of this article".

6. Post your link in blog comments under a related blog post
Simply type "blog + your topic" into Google and find a blog post that relates to the topic of your article. Leave a blog comments that adds value to the bloggers post and include a link to your article.

7. Post your link on YouTube
Find videos on YouTube relating to your article, and leave a comment with a link under these videos. However, do not spam YouTube comments. Simply post your link under one or two videos.

These 7 methods will further increase the exposure of your articles, ensuring more of your target market read the article, recognize you as an expert on the topic and ultimately click through to your website.

This is a great strategy for kick starting the traffic to newly submitted articles.
