Several of you have asked questions in the comments so I thought I would take a moment to answer them.
I have 3 blogs so can I combine the efforts?
Yes of course. I’m not writing 30 articles to promote one site – although if I did, wow! What a jump in traffic that site would get. What I did was decide on the main sites I wanted to boost traffic to and I’m writing articles to promote those.
Any ideas of best places to submit articles?
EzineArticles.com is a favorite. There are also many niche article directories. Do a Google search to find them. Of course, don’t limit your efforts to directories. Send your articles directly to website owners in your niche and ask them if they’ll publish your content. (Probably best to email them first to ask if you can send your article.) I’m working on a post as we speak on the subject of what to do with your articles once you’ve written them so stay tuned for that.
How long do these articles have to be?
Typically an article needs to be 400 – 800 words. Although if you hit 800, you’re probably best served cutting it into two articles.
When does it start?
I started Friday, but you can jump in anytime!
Thanks Carrie, I will be looking forward to your post.
I think I’m going to put my feet up and get moving on an article right now, everyone seems to be self occupied at the moment!
You are such a wonderful influence. I’ve now written 11 articles. Only 19 more to go.
Carrie,
It is so nice to see that yes people really do read their comments and reply back. That make people feel like you are interacting with them which then makes them come back and read more and interact more.
Great job and I love your answers.
