Among all the different ways of driving traffic to your website, writing and submitting articles remains one of the most powerful methods, which in turn can boost sales and increase your presence across the Internet.

So how is writing and submitting articles effective in driving traffic to your website?

1. Build Trust
   Articles can help you become an expert in your niche.
   By writing high quality and informative articles in your niche, you become an expert. You also build trust and confidence in your prospects. As an expert, customers will feel more confident to buy from you and this will increase your sales, grow your list and overall profits.
2. Automation and Exposure
   Articles are an affordable and in most cases, free way of driving traffic to your website. You can write your own articles or you can hire a ghostwriter to write some articles for you, and this is not very expensive. You can then submit your articles to many directories. There are some tools that you can use to automatically submit your articles to many directories, and this increases the number of links pointing back to your website.
3. Articles Are Viral
   Articles are viral and powerful in driving traffic to your website. At the bottom of all your articles, you are given a resource box containing your website URL. Your articles will be published by many directories, websites and e-zines with your website URL. By simply writing and submitting articles, you tap into a powerful viral resource with many websites having your website’s URL on their sites.
4. Longevity
   Articles bring life long results and will continue to drive traffic to your website long after they’re published. Unlike other types of advertising that bring momentary results, articles will continue to drive traffic to your website for a long time. All your articles are archived in article directories and that means anyone can still read them and visit your website. Your articles can generate thousands of permanent one-way links to your website, which is also good for SEO.
5. Search Engines Love Them
   Articles make search engines index your website and drive traffic to your website. Writing and submitting many articles to article directories is very powerful in making your website visible on search engines. By including your keywords in your articles, when people are looking for information related to your niche and type those keywords, your articles and website show up on search engines, therefore making it easy for you to get a lot of traffic on your website from people interested in your particular topic.

Although there are many tools for driving traffic to a website, articles remain the most powerful tool that brings life long results.

Some affiliates are very successful in earning commissions while others fail to
make money online.
Over the last 10 years I’ve been doing this, I’ve seen so many people simply give up and quit.
What separates winners from losers in earning huge affiliate commissions?

I’ve put together some simple ideas that you can try out to help you win:

1.      Build your own mini-site where you promote relevant affiliate programs for your niche. By focusing your site on one niche, you can offer several affiliate products that you can hand pick from that niche. This gives your website visitors options to buy products they are interested in, which in turn boosts sales.

2.      Publish your own e-zine and build a big list of subscribers. By doing this, you can then promote your affiliate products to your list on a regular basis.

3.      Establish a marketing budget and the tools you will use to advertise your affiliate products. It is also important for you to test and track your ads and promotions for your affiliate programs to see which ones are the most effective.

4.      Carry out product reviews of the affiliate products you promote, indicating which programs have paid you most, and outline their attractive benefits. This will inform your customers about your products, and will also help to drive traffic to your website. You can also recommend your affiliate programs on your website or in your newsletter, or on your blog.
It is very important that you make sure that your affiliate product reviews honest.

5.      Give away freebies that have your affiliate links in them. This can involve giving away short reports, e-books or an e-course with your affiliate links in them.
A rebrandable report such as Affiliate Jumpstart is ideal for this.
You can also invite your website visitors to give away your reports and e-books to their own friends or distribute to their lists.

6.      Create a directory. This directory can be for articles, e-zines, e-books or affiliate programs. You can add your affiliate links in your directories, which will in turn boost your commissions as the directory grows in size and popularity.

Try a few or all of these methods out for size and you might be surprised at the difference that is made to your bottom line.

What exactly is “Viral marketing”?
Viral marketing is one of the most effective ways of driving traffic to your website with little effort on your part.
Sound good so far? Read on..
With viral marketing, you can send your marketing message to selected recipients who then pass on that message to others for mutual benefit.
Viral marketing is easy and affordable, so pretty much anyone can do it.

If you have high quality products, your marketing message will be passed on to many people.
Internet marketers want to pass on high quality products or services to their own lists, so the more appealing your products are, the quicker your marketing message will get spread all over the internet. The result is a huge volume of traffic to your website.

You can carry out your viral marketing campaign by creating e-books, reports or articles and distribute them to targeted recipients, giving them for free.
Any internet marketer can do this; since it simply involves creating the product, pass it on and let other people pass it on further for you.
You can also rebrand reports written by others that contain your affiliate links such as
Affiliate Jumpstart and make residual income streams with very little effort.

Here are some basic examples of how to use Viral marketing:

• Offer high quality products that spread your marketing message. Write well-researched reports and e-books on your niche and add your URL on these reports. Many people like getting free reports and e-books. These e-books will provide very powerful information on your topic, and people who read them will visit your website. Further distribution of your reports and e-book will result in more traffic to your website as well as increased awareness of your business or brand.

• You can also offer a free service or product on your web site that spreads your message to an increasing number of people who hear about it. Send out news releases concerning the free service or product available on your site. This in turn will generate huge volumes of traffic to your website.
• Setting up an affiliate program that encourages links to your products can also be helpful. If you can afford it, provide attractive financial incentive for other sites to pass on your marketing message. You can also install a ‘Recommend it” referral system on your website so that other internet marketers will pass on your website address to their lists. By having your own affiliates promoting your website, you drive a lot of traffic to your website.
• Use traffic exchange programs where you exchange page views with other internet marketers. When you add your website link to another site, some people may be interested in it, and they may bookmark it or pass it on to other people who may be interested in your niche.

• Write good quality articles and encourage other webmasters to post them for free as content on their sites. If you’re an expert in a niche, write an article on that niche and give it away for free to complementary sites to post on their site as free content, so long as the article contains links to your site. Write high quality articles and distribute them online for free with reprinting rights. More directories, newsletters and e-zines will publish your article with your resource box and URL. With little effort, your URL will be distributed all over the internet, and this will lead to a huge flow of traffic to your website.

Give Viral marketing a try and see how it impacts your business.
I think you’ll be very pleased with the increase in traffic, clicks on your links and increased commissions .
