Article marketing is a very solid strategy for building your business. If you are able to write your own articles it is also a very cost effective form of marketing. Let’s look at a few reasons why you should write articles to advertise your business.
1. When looking at your business from a long term standpoint you will see how beneficial it is to market your business with articles. If you use paid advertising to market your business you know that as soon as you stop purchasing it you will loose its benefits. But with articles you will be gaining business for years to come simply based on the keywords you have chosen for your articles.
2. If you depend on the search engines for traffic then article marketing can be very beneficial. Search engines will display your articles based on the keywords you have chosen. Your ranking will depend on the competition for that keyword phrase and your traffic will depend on how many searches there are for that phrase.
3. When you submit your article to the top article directories on the net you are exposing your articles to a potential large number of readers. Readers use these directories to read articles and learn. Ezine publishers also use article directories looking for content for their ezines. If you construct a well laid out resource box for your articles you have a potential traffic gold mine waiting for you.
4. Point number four will be a favorite of yours if you are on a tight budget. Writing articles is free, the only cost being the time it takes you to write it. You don’t have to be a Stephen King or Anne Rice to write a good article. Your writing skills will improve with practice. If you need help, some article directories even offer advice on how to write effective articles.
These four points on why you should write articles can benefit your business for years to come. We all need traffic for our sites and article marketing is one of the greatest free marketing strategies available today. So get started and see how much of a benefit article marketing can be for your business. Good luck to you, Tim Stokes.

A very good point you made here. Articles are very long term as is SEO. Paid advertising should be looked at a short term strategy and SEO a longer strategy.

This is very true. Thanks for mentioning. Not too many people know about this.
Good post Tim, by far my favorite type of advertising is article marketing. It is also one of the most challenging, which for me is part of what I like. There have been many times that as I research a topic, I learn something new as well.
Hi, Tim:
Article marketing is one of the most valuable marketing tools available and as you said, it is free to do.
Many aspiring marketers feel challenged in writing articles, between skill, confidence and the time factor. But it is something every marketer should work at doing.

Article marketing is a great way to promote your business. You have the choice of a wide variety of article directories or you can even use an article submission service to submit to hundreds of directories.
