More Article Marketing Tips

More Article Marketing Tips

Here are a few more article marketing tips that will help you keep your readers engaged and get them talking. Writing on topics that evoke passion from people is a great way to get the ball rolling.

Often, titles make or break an article. Learning to push peoples buttons with your title so they get interested and want to read what you have to say but don't get to angry with you for saying it, can be a very nice skill to develop.

Of course, not every title needs to do this but sometimes using this tactic can help you get more views, more comments, and more social activity which helps you rank higher.

Another little tip I have learned is, don't get carried away with using bold text to emphasize a point. If you use it once on a page it stands out. If you use it too much, it becomes distracting. Have you ever seen a street corner that's littered with those little yard signs? If there is one sign it stands out and draws your attention; whereas, too many signs and they all blend together and your mind just kind of blocks them all out.

You may also want to remember to keep you paragraphs short. Small blocks of text are easier to read from a computer screen.

I also find that people like numbered lists when they are reading "how to" guides and step-by-step instructions. for instance.

  1. Push peoples buttons with your titles
  2. Use bold text sparingly
  3. Keep your paragraphs short
  4. Use numbered lists

We store information in our brains much like we store information in file folders. Lists help people remember things because it helps them know which file to place it in for easy access.

I think the single most important thing you can do when writing is to always give people something helpful or useful to take with them.

Don't forget, all traffic on the internet starts with a question someone wants or needs an answer to. Help people find the answer to the questions they are asking and they will love you for it. If you don't answer people's questions very well, you will slow down the process of them finding those answers and they will get annoyed with you.

We are all bound to have a little of both come our way from time to time. Just give it your best effort to offer quality, helpful information to people and you shouldn't have to worry too much about annoying anyone.

I hope these tips will help you become a better article marketer and engage your readers a little more effectively.
