#10- Marketing Your Website

It’s now time to market your website in order to gain traffic and generate sales. There are many ways to do this. Some of the best ways to market your website is through article writing and building a mailing list with autoresponders.

Article Writing & Submission: One of the best ways to market your website or products is writing and distributing articles to article directories like ezinearticles.com, self-growth, helium,  goarticles, and more.  There are literally hundreds of places you can upload your articles for free.  Writing articles about your topic and placing them on articles directories helps customers find you.  When they search a specific topic, you want you article to appear in the search engines.  At the end of each article you write, you will include your byline and a link back to your website.  You can submit articles about your own products or products you are selling for other through affiliate advertising.  Article writing also makes you look like an expert and gives you credibility.  When writing articles, it is important that you place terms (words or phrases) that customers may be searching for.  Use popular words and phrases you discovered during the planning phase.

Also, see my review on Article Submitter that submits your articles to over 200 directories at the touch of a button.

Article Marketeers- In addition to submitting articles to the directories listed above, another great resources is articlemarketers.com.

Many online marketing gurus state that autoresponders are a must for any true online entrepeneur.  Autoresponders automate your online business.  You can set your autoresponder to send out messages as often as you like.  Statistic show that many buyers don’t purchase the first time around, and that it sometimes takes as many as fives contacts before they are ready to make a purchase.
