Article marketing is without doubt a major influence on Google listings, and submitting articles to article directories goes a long way to helping you achieve that. I can honestly say that I have achieved not only Page #1 listings for web pages I have promoted using nothing but web page SEO and article marketing, but also the very top position for my keyword. These are not the obscure keywords that those guaranteeing you top listings will use - anybody can get a #1 position on Google for silly keywords that nobody uses in their search. If you want to get at least on the first page of Google for your keywords then you have to do three things: 1. Use good on-page SEO, making sure you use the Title tag for your page properly, and also write a good Meta Description. Your keywords should not be over-used - I laugh when any of my customers insist on at least 3% Keyword Density. I have to explain to them that is keyword spamming these days, and that Google's latent semantic indexing (LSI) algorithm lets you get top listings with good semantic relevance to your keyword. In fact you can reach #1 in Google's index for a search term without using that term even once, just due to good use of language to explain how your web page content relates to that search term. Search engine indexing is very poorly understood by most internet marketers. 2. Get as many RELEVANT backlinks to your web page as you can. Note the word RELEVANT. I am fed up with the number of times I have had requests for reciprocal links from people running websites that have nothing whatsoever to do with my niche. If you are stupid enough to take them up on that Google will punish you rather than reward you for an irrelevant link. I recently had a guy with the cheek to ask me for a link between my SEO site and his Caribbean vacation site???? I sent him on his way with some hot Jamaican sauce up his . . . 3. Write as many articles as you can and submit them to as many directories as you can. Don’t worry about duplicate content - that takes time to kick in and meantime you could have written a few more articles. I currently have one article published four times in the first two pages of Google for the same keyword. That will be down to one in a few weeks, but by then I will a have a few more in the first two pages. 4. There is no 4 - remember, I mentioned only 3? However if there was a 4 then it would be to write and submit one article per week to the top 10 directories, and then use an auto-submission service to send it off to 400+ more. There is one service that enables you to write two versions of every sentence and then permutates them so that each directory gets a different version. That is very effective! All that apart, since the detail above is just that - detail - article marketing and submitting articles to article directories on a regular basis will likely get you top Google listings for your keywords, but you have to know how to write and how to go about submitting your article the right way Get it right, and article marketing is one of the most powerful optimization techniques on the planet, and it can make a heck of a difference to your search engine listings, your traffic and your profits. So learn how to do it and then get on with it and make money for the rest of your life.
