1. By posting articles to sources like e-zines, article directories, newsletters or blogs, you will brand your web site, business and yourself. To promote your business, you can use what's called a resource/bio box that gives you the opportunity to tell people about you and your business. 2. People with read your article and think of you as an expert. This will help you better compete against your competition by giving you extra credibility. Now, a lot of people tell me that they are not experts about anything to which I always reply "At one time every 'expert' from Bill Gates to Stephen Hawking knew nothing about what they are experts on." So don't let being a beginner stop you! 3. Your article could show up on the home page of the web site. If they publish each issue on their home page this will give you some extra exposure. In addition, your web site will get indexed faster and more frequently because the web site's home page will usually have a higher page rank than it's other pages. 4. Without doing any more work, you can keep on getting more and more traffic to your web site when submitting your article to e-zine publishers that archive their e-zines on their web sites. This is because many people are wary of giving out their email address without knowing what they will receive in return so they want to check it out first. Additionally, if the info in the e-zines they are receive is very good, often times they will visit the publisher's web site to read back issues of the e-zine. 5. You will get free advertising! This will allow you to spend your profits on other forms of advertising. For instance, you could take 50% of your profits and by Google Adwords ads and generate even more traffic. Every day, your advertising options will become more and more numerous. 6. You might get extra income from people wanting to hire you to write other articles, books, or even ask to speak at seminars. You'll see your business and income grow exponentially. The whole thing becomes bigger and bigger because it just keeps feeding itself more and more. 7. You could allow e-zine publishers to publish your articles in their free e-books. Since the e-books don't cost anything, people are willing to take it and read your article. If they like the e-book they will forward it to friends, family and business associates. And if they like your article, they'll visit your web site. The really cool thing about this method is that if they don't like your article, they still might forward the e-book on to others and one of those people might really like your article. So there is a good possibility that your article will get read a lot! I can't tell you how many times I receive e-books that have my articles from friends that I never even sent the e-book to in the first place! 8. Submit your articles to article directories and it will get published all over the internet. They'll allow their visitors to republish your article. 9. You'll gain people's trust. If they read your article and like it, they won't be as hesitant to buy your product or service. You will then be able to increase your profits! 10. Want your article guaranteed to run in their ezine? You can create a win/win situation by agreeing with another publisher to trade articles to be published in each others' e-zines.
