Without a doubt article marketing is a powerhouse marketing tactic that will get you bak links and trafic to your blogs and lead capture pages.

Outsourcing your articles is very inexpensive and adds massive leverage, I highly recommend it if you are willing to spend $20-$100 dollars a month.

The 4 Step Article Marketing Formula
Step 1- Know who your target market is. You must be lazor focused and specific about what you are writting. You will attract your targeted market best to your website by being specific and concrete. The more closely you can define your target audience, the more people will relate and follow your articles. Don't write your articles to make people happy, you will most likely not attract anyone.

Here is a few list of questions that can help you define your target audience:

1. What obstacles are they facing?
2. What is their meaning of success?
3. What do the want out of life?
4. What are their personal and professional goals.
5. What do they do for a living?
6. What advertising tactic are they looking to learn?

Step 2 - Choose Your Keyword Phrase: Articles get indexed on search engines like Google, Yahoo, and MSN, so it is very important that you optimize each article with keyword phrases, also known as long-tailed keywords. Make the topic of your article using the keyword phrase relevant to your target audience. Very important not to over do it with keywords though.

Step 3- Choose an article subject: Choose a topic comparableto the keyword phrase. One way to do this is by writting six challenges you had previousto joining or getting started marketing your current product or business. Then share the solutions your current business or product offers. This give you six article topic you can write about.

5 Types of Articles:

1. A Training or How To Article (Like This One)
2. A Problem & Solution Article
3. A Review Article
4. A Story or Personal Experience Article
5. A Compare & Contrast Article

People reading your article will have the same concerns you had, and by addressing their concerns, they will feel that the article was written specifically for them.

Step 4- Write your article: Article writing is simple, don't focus on perfection. It's important to make your articke informative, short, and fun. In the beginning it's a little challenging, but in a few weeks you will master it. Just get started and before you know it you will be writting articles in 30 minutes.
Here are some tips that can help:

1. Create a short list of 3-5 key point you want to cover in your article.
2.clarify each key point with 3-5 sentences.
3. The key points will be the first sentence of each paragraph.
4. The body will be the remaining 2-4 supporting sentences of your paragraph.

Very important not to pitch your product or opportunity through your article. It's purpose is not to "close a sale", it is just an informative tool that should compel your audience. If they like what the read they will click on your link on the resource box or bio on the bottom or your article. Believe me the process will take care
