Many people often complain their articles are rejected from article directories, and that is done for many different reasons. Let us take a look at some common mistakes that people make before submitting their articles to article directories:
1. Confusing the reason to promote the articles with the reason to write them.
In article writing, there are three key benefits why you are promoting them; branding, lead generation and promotion, which are all part of your optimization efforts. But there is only one reason why you write an article, and that is to inform your audience. If the article is not focused on this primary and most important purpose, it will fail to achieve the three promotion benefits because no one will be interested in reading them.
You need to figure out first how to get people to read what is in your article, then make them click on your resource box, that contains links to your website.
2. Failing to maximize the promotional opportunities of article marketing.
You may know already that your articles can help you generate additional links back to your site. But do you know that you can get more visitors and better search engine results from that same articles? Mention keywords at strategic places. Just be sure not to overdo them. Some are even using anchor texts which is also an effective method. But it is important to know that majority of the directories are not able to support this.
Remember that is not only about the links back to your site. Part of doing well in your article marketing is getting picked up by publishers with a large number of audiences and gaining the ability of leveraging other brands because of the quality of your work. Better search engine results also are great benefits.
But these things do not put much money in your pocket. There are other factors that can turn your article marketing efforts into an opportunity that can boost your earnings. Not just increase the number of visitors to your site.
3. Publishing content that does not help your readers.
Maybe in the process of writing articles, you are thinking that all that is you wanted is links back to your site. And any visitors it can generate is fine. Guess what? Not all article banks and directories are going to accept your content automatically. Often, they have some guidelines and specifications on the articles that they are accepting. If you take the time to think out what your article will be about and how it can benefit the reader, you will find much more success with article marketing.
You can double the number of sites you can submit to by writing articles that the directories want to share with other people. All it takes is one publisher with a hundred thousand readers to increase your potential audience overnight. Write your articles that publishers want in their publications if you want your article marketing to work the most effective way for you. This also means you have to obey the standard guidelines, spell checks and researching on a good topic.
I find articles all over the net that the publisher failed to spell check. Not only does it look horrible and unprofessional it will turn visitors away from the website you are trying to promote. Let your SPELL CHECK be your best friend when writing articles.
If you spend a little extra time making quality articles, your article marketing efforts will be with much more success.
