I hope your weekend has gone well. Father’s Day isn’t normally ‘celebrated’ in the Sale household but this year I did get a Bruce Springsteen CD from my two boys (they must want something!). But other than this it was business as usual. Today is of course the longest day for all in the Northern Hemisphere. It is also Cockchafer season which makes the long evenings quite entertaining in these parts. The Cockchafer beetle is about 25mm long and at this time of year the adults have finished the business of laying eggs and they swarm around trees etc at dusk. They then fly around crashing into everything because there appears to be little directional control. They do this for a couple of days and then die. So sitting out in the garden of an evening is a little bit of a challenge.

So to work then.

The video series on Article writing was well received by a few last Thursday. But a few questioned whether it is really necessary. The response I gave to all was that It really is core information for anyone in internet marketing. So if you haven’t done so already go and grab yourself a copy it’s only $17 and it’s timeless information http://www.nofussinternetbusiness.com/articlemastery .

Article writing really is one of those things that has to be done the right way and on a regular basis. The trouble is that most people just do not like writing and the task gets put to the bottom of the pile (I am as guilty as the next of this). I can however state from personal experience that article writing is one of the most effective ways of promoting a website or blog. When I look back at some of the sites I have promoted for myself and for clients the ones that do the best are those that had articles written for them on a regular basis. In fact I have a couple of test blogs that have about 5 posts on them but each with a few articles submitted to a number of directories and these generate about 20-30 visitors/day. Which brings in a small but consistent Google Adsense revenue.

But it is worth noting that an article written in the wrong way will generate little or no traffic. The only way you get traffic from an article is when someone reads it and then clicks on the one link through to your site in the resource box at the base of the article. So it is not just about having an interesting article. There has to be some incentive for the reader to click the link at the end of the article.

All this is explained in great detail in the videos. Get your copy here http://www.nofussinternetbusiness.com/articlemastery .

Sorry to run over the same topic as I did on Thursday but on reflection I did not really explain why articles are so important to you.
