There's only one regret I have about my business on the internet.

I really wish I had started this online technique I'm about to tell you about when I first started marketing on the internet.

You know I love paid marketing strategies like ezine advertising and Pay-Per-Click Advertising. But the problem with all those strategies is that if you STOP paying for the ads... your traffic STOPS.

But what if you could put out an "advertisement" ONCE and get traffic from that ONE "advertisement" for years to come?

That's the incredible power and leverage of article marketing.

You see when you create an article, a blog post, or any other piece of content online, including videos and forum posts... that little piece of content stays online forever.

This is extremely powerful!

This content can potentially bring you traffic on an ongoing basis for years and years to come.
Its like having your own piece of real estate on the internet. And there's no limit to how much real estate you can create.

Think about this...

If you create 10 articles and submit these articles to just 6 article directories, you would have 60 little pieces of content out on the internet. Each one of them with a link back to your main website.

Its like 60 little fishing hooks out in the water ready to catch a bite!

Now lets say each of these articles, on average brings you just 5 visitors per month. That would be 30 visitors to your website each and every month. Doesn't sound like very much does it?

But wait.. because this is sort of like building residual income, but with traffic.

Now imagine this... You actually get serious... and you decide that you will create just 1 article each day.

1 article each day...at the end of 90 days, you would have 90 articles. Incredible what a little consistency can do. So you have 90 articles and you submit them to those 6 article directories.
You now have 540 little fishing hooks out on the internet each one with your website link.

Now assuming we get a measly 5 visits from each article, each month (and this is a very low number) this simple strategy of creating content would bring you.... 2700 visitors to your website each and every month!

If your website converts around 20% from visits to leads, that would create roughly 540 free leads for your business every month All at no cost to you.

Not sure if I can make it any clearer for you. Just imagine if you kept this up for a whole year...

Now get to work.

Thanks Mike,

That's a great point. I was just thinking about that myself. You basically have unlimited potential for adding your content to the web universe. Your only limit is how much time (or money) you want to spend. It all pays off, and the cool part is the more you do it, the better you get at it, and.... the more credibility you'll gain.

Thanks for reminding me of this Mike. I wrote and submitted some articles to EZA a couple of months ago, and forgot about them. I checked my account this week , and since I submitted these articles there has been a steady amount of people reading and clicking on my links.

It's something I should have kept doing, because it has resulted in people who are interested in my articles clicking through to my websites.
