But now, with Web 2.0 Internet Marketing, ‘non-techie’ networkers low on cash can realistically generate huge numbers of leads and attract their customers and prospects to them just like a real business.

 One way that a marketer by attraction can get started with no cost is by submitting ezine articles to sites like EzineArticles.com  and content sharing sites like Squidoo and Hubpages. There a  number of others as well, each with its own style and requirements.

Some sites such as Ezine Articles are intended more for editorial and technical type content and have a higher standard for submission.  It’s thrust is less tolerant of “marketing” type of content but if the material is good it may get picked up by Editors looking for content for their ezines, and you gain the exposure with your “resource box”, that is the spot reserved for you to share about yourself and your website.

Some of the content sharing such as Squidoo, for example, you can do more of a “marketing pitch” with embeded links etc., however you still want to provide content of value.

The (3) Keys to Article Marketing:

 1.  Create great, original content to
     position you as an expert in your niche.

 2.  Create great, original content that
     does not “sell” or promote in your
     article body content, but provides
     useful information for your reader.

 3.  Submit your best original content
     frequently to build a steady stream of traffic
     back to your website.

Each article you submit contains different components and sections. While some sections carry more weight than others; each section must be crafted with care and foresight. A truly great article can increase traffic to your website. 

 1.  Proof your Work: Credibility and expertise in
     your article subject matter can be diminished by
     typos or grammatical errors in any part of your
     article. Here’s a proof-reading tip: Read your
     work out loud. Often times this will help you
     catch mistakes you missed while reading the
     article to yourself silently.

 2.  Keep Your Audience in Mind: If you are writing
     an article on a technical topic, it’s fine to
     use technical terms, but be wary of alienating
     a wider target of readers with information they
     may not be ready to understand or digest.

 3.  Keep An Ace Up Your Sleeve: Always keep a tidbit
     of important information in reserve to make your
     readers want more. Remember, your article can
     generate traffic, so use the Resource Box to
     entice your readers to click on your website
     link.

 4.  Be Clear and Concise in Your Writing: A 500 word
     article will always out-perform a 1000 word
     article. You are writing for a medium that
     embraces instant gratification: the Internet.
     Keep your articles clear and concise, so the
     reader can quickly comprehend the quality
     content you are sharing.

Each of the sites have good training and tips as well as blogs written by those with experinec on writing articles that can really help.  As well, Renegade University provides excellent step by step video tutorials on how to register and submit articles at some of these sites.  The video tutorials are great because you can see exactly where to click and what to enter as well as numerous tips for improving your results in attracting a large list of customers or prospects.

Interestingly enough BusinessWeek  recently ran an article:

“Social Media Will Change Your Business… Look past the yakkers, hobbyists, and political mobs. Your customers and rivals are figuring blogs out. Our advice: Catch up…or catch you later.”

Of course, blogs were only one of six different social marketing methods we went over on the Webinar.  Each of the Social Marketing methods we talked about, blogs and the rest of it, are going to revolutionize business, whether that’s a networking business or a traditional business.

How a Blog helps you grow your business:

- Gets people to your website

- Gets people to your lead capture pages

- Positions you  as the expert

- Pre Sells your prospects

- Builds Prospects list continously

- Increases Monetization (cash-flow)

- Brings People into your business

We’ll start with the basics.

What is a blog? I’ll give you a few definitions from Google.

• Blog is short for weblog. A weblog is a journal (or newsletter) that is frequently updated and intended for general public consumption. Blogs generally represent the personality of the author or the website.
• A blog is a website in which items are posted on a regular basis.
• A frequent, chronological publication of personal thoughts and web links.
• An online journal.

Obviously a blogger is someone who owns or operates a blog and blogging is considered updating or writing posts on your blog.

When you set up a blog for yourself you’re instantly adding to the professionalism of you and your business. Establishing yourself as an expert and authoritative figure is crucial to success in any industry. Having your own online presence with your own customized website that you have control over will help accomplish this.

Just ask yourself: What professional business doesn’t have their own website or blog? It’s hard to imagine any without one. Even supermarkets and gas stations have websites these days.

A major benefit of having your own blog that you cannot get with just an affiliate url is the free “organic” or “natural” search engine traffic that you’ll receive.

Just so you don’t get the wrong impression though, this isn’t something that happens overnight after your blog is built. You have to put some work into optimizing it so the search engines can easily find you. And also know that the search engine optimization process is never really over – there are things that can be done on a daily basis to improve your position or rankings in the search engines. But for now, just realize that if you have a blog you open yourself up to another (free) traffic opportunity that normally wouldn’t be available to you.
