Two important factors that play a part in the rankings algorithm of leading search engines are content and link popularity. It can be expensive to make changes to your website, particularly if you have used a web designer to create your website, a cheap and effective way to boast your traffic is to write and distribute internet Articles.

Internet Articles are a good way to combine content and links, if you write a focused interesting article using compelling copy, then there is a good chance that its readers will follow a link within the article or biography to your site.

Incoming links from web pages of a similar theme to your own help to boost your rankings, particularly if you include your keywords within a working hyperlink to your site. If your articles are of similar content to your site then there will be a benefit.

There are lots of good quality article publishing sites around, and whilst it can be time consuming to register and post your articles the math is very compelling. Consider the following: 10 articles submitted to 10 article sites means 100 links. 100 articles submitted to 100 sites means 10,000 links, and that is before the articles are republished.

Not only can you benefit from the link popularity but a well written article will bring direct visitors. The more articles submitted the more direct traffic you will get its that simple.

Fresh content seems to do well on search engines particularly Google, so it always worth writing articles on a regular basis and distributing them as part of a monthly routine.

Make sure each article is checked for spelling and grammar; poor presentation will loose you visitors and undermine your credibility.

Each article should include a short biography with a working hyperlink, ideally giving permission to visitors to use the article on their own site, provided the article and link remain intact. Remember pyramid selling, this is the same concept but put to legitimate use.

Remember that the better the article the more widely and regularly it will be republished. A single well crafted article can produce more of a boost to your site, than many weaker ones.

There are countless web site owners looking for good content to boost their own sites, reputable webmasters will be more than happy to offer a link to your site in return for the use of your articles.

Writing Articles to Improve Link Popularity

madhanskumar — Thu, 13 May 2010 03:13:00 +0000

There are many different ways to improve link popularity for your Website. One of the most effective ways to improve your site’s link popularity is by writing articles for publication on other related Web sites and in other related newsletters or Ezines.

In this article, I will be sharing 10 techniques I use when I am writing articles to improve link popularity for one of my Websites.

Let’s use this article as an example. I have two goals in mind as I start writing this article, a primary goal and a secondary goal.

My primary goal is to inform you, my reader, about how to improve link popularity for your Website.

My secondary goal is to improve link popularity for one of my own Websites.

If, after having read this article, you can say to yourself that this article was informative and it gave you one or more ideas about how to improve link popularity for your own Website, then I will have achieved my primary goal.

If, after having written this article, I can say to myself that this article was written well enough, and was informative enough, to persuade Webmasters and newsletter or Ezine publishers to reprint this article on their Website or in their newsletter or Ezine, then I will have achieved my secondary goal.

If I do achieve my primary goal, my secondary goal will be achieved as well – you will have been informed and the other publishers will realize that and will reprint this article in order to inform their readers as well.

Now, on to achieving my primary goal, informing you…

How to Improve Link Popularity by Writing Articles

1. Before writing your article, have definite goals in mind. Ask yourself what you want to accomplish by writing this article.

Since you are now reading an article about how to improve link popularity for your Website, that should be one of your goals. I’ll leave you to decide what other goals you want to achieve by writing your article.

2. Have well thought out ideas for the beginning, middle and ending of your article.

For this article, the purpose of my beginning was to inform you about an effective way to improve link popularity for your Website.

The purpose of the middle of this article is to inform you about how you can use this effective way to improve link popularity for your own Website.

The purpose of the ending of this article will be to provide you with a way to learn more on this topic and, to achieve my secondary goal, to improve link popularity for my own Website.

3. Include your most important keyword in the title of your article. You will notice that I have used the keyword phrase “improve link popularity” in the title of this article. This will improve the odds that your article will become indexed and listed by search engines.

4. Use your important keyword throughout the content of your article. Again, you will notice that I have used the keyword phrase “improve link popularity” several times throughout the content of this article. Again, this is for the purpose of getting this article indexed and listed by search engines.

5. Write your article as if you were speaking directly to your best friend about a topic that both you and she are passionate about. Don’t try to impress her with your knowledge of the topic. Simply provide her with your thoughts on the subject, using easy-to-understand words and phrases.

6. After you have written your article, leave it alone for a day or two before coming back to it. Using a fresh pair of eyes, read your article to see if the content flows in a logical, easy-to-understand manner. Then proofread your article for typos. Make any necessary corrections.

7. After you have written and proofread your article, publish it on your own Website. Include a resource box at the bottom of your Web page that informs Webmasters and newsletter or Ezine publishers that they are free to reprint your article. This is, after all, the focus of this article on how to improve link popularity for your Website.

8. If you publish a newsletter or Ezine, also publish your article in it as well. If it is a lengthy article, publish part of the article in your newsletter or Ezine and provide a link to the complete article that is published on your Website.

9. Include a resource box at the end of your article that provides a little information about you and an invitation for your readers to visit your Website. Some readers will go to your Website, read your other articles, and choose to reprint some of those as well. This is a definite bonus when you are writing an article to improve link popularity for your Website.

10. Submit your article to Websites that archive articles that are available for reprinting on other Websites and in other newsletters or Ezines. My favorite Website for archiving my articles and for obtaining articles written about how to improve link popularity is ArticleCity.com, located at http://www.articlecity.com/. Other archives can be located by searching on “free articles for reprint” or something similar.

Summary

It took me about two hours to write this article. When you are passionate about the topic you are writing about, the words just seem to flow from your brain to your article.

If you are passionate about the topic of your article, you will be able to write an informative article which will be reprinted by Webmasters and newsletter or Ezine publishers and that will help to improve link popularity for your Website.
