What's the hype about this site and about article marketing? Ask any wealthy internet marketer who is self-made and they will tell you that article marketing is an integral part of their business strategy. Article marketing works and it means providing useful content to others with the added benefit of having a link to your website as the author of the article. This does more than you think!

Best of all, it's ethical and powerful...relax, take a deep breath and read the following carefully...it might be the most important article you ever read!

When you write a good quality article for this site (GoingFree.info), for example, when google "crawls" the site to examine for new content and outgoing links, it will find the published content and list the page in the search engine.

Let's say your article is about "Fly Fishing" and your website sells a special kind of fishing tackle and a book about Fly Fishing in the Great Lakes or whatever (I know nothing about Fly Fishing by the way!)...

You write your article, submit it to the article publisher whose editors will review your article, make sure it is not just a sales letter for your product and that it is the correct number of words, no terrible grammar and so on. And that it offers something to the reader (you're not just trying to get a listing in google for "fly fishing," you're actually providing useful info for the reader).

You also include a short bio or "information about yourself" at the end of the article, sometimes known as a "resource box."

What happens when someone reads your article? Ahhh...first they enjoy your article, then they see that it was you who wrote it. Oh! Very kind indeed. Then the reader sees you have a website. What joy! The user clicks through to your website to get more information or to order your product. Thus you generate more leads, prospects, enquiries and sales for your product.

On the detail, this also helps improve the search engine ranking of your website (where your website appears in Google, e.g. number 1 position of page 1, number 3 position of page 1 and so on). This is because if a site external to your site links to your site (and you have placed a link to your site in your article), Google will understand this as meaning that your site has "authority." The more links you get to your site, the more traffic you generate both through this site and through the search engines. A double-win!

http://www.GoingFree.info is an article submission and review service with a difference. You can submit unlimited articles, movie reviews, book reviews, tips and so on with a condition that the article (not including introduction and author bio) is less than 300 words. This makes it much easier for you. Other article directories require between 600-1200 words which can be very time consuming.
