Ads By CbproAds

Are you interested in writing articles but are unaware of the nuances involved in this field?

Well, article writing is an art which must be practiced properly if you want to make a living out of it. If you are advertising or writing articles online, you must follow the correct procedure for making it more effective. Your articles must persuade the readers to agree with the article's content and they must be left wanting more. This is concerned with presenting an example which the readers are ready to agree. It consists of offering them something irresistible. Article marketing has the capability of providing good returns at the cost of almost nothing. Like any other thing, article writing also has certain techniques which can prove to be extremely useful for making the job easier and making the articles sound more convincing. Although no specific rules are devised for this purpose, few strategies are commonly employed simply because they work. The most important thing is that you must be yourself convinced about what you are writing. Few tips that will help you in writing effective articles are: Continues here...

I knew writing articles to get free advertising online was not going to be easy

Driving free targeted visitors to your site using the article marketing technique can be very effective and lucrative. Thousands of savvy marketers are making huge incomes without spending a penny for their advertising. Many of them master the technique by simply composing relevant articles and extrapolating and troubleshooting results accordingly.

However, this technique can be elusive and tricky if it’s not done correctly. I have been trying to find strategies used on several affiliates’ programs but I am yet to conclusively get a grip of the technique. Apparently, part of the problem is not so much marketing articles but having them depict proper keywords where search engine can index them appropriately.

On the outset I knew writing articles to get promotion online was not going to be easy, and reaching for top listings in each major search engine is of course another matter. I never strive to be listed at the top; I want to be listed somewhere where it can be productive. There is a consolation that could bring a light at the end of the tunnel - provided the light is not coming from a high speed runaway train - and that’s persistence. And although I am new at this, I will continue this approach until I find a successful technique or I learn a proper way to make it work from someone else.

In order to get someone to help me I would have to shell out my scarce resources while defeating my original approach of writing articles to generate free advertising online. If what I am doing does not work, then I may have to borrow some cash to make it work. That does not appeal to me at this very moment because I cannot afford it. Meanwhile I will continue to write articles and stories and wait to see how what kind of results I get. 

Have you gone nuts trying to write articles yet?

To prove my dog that I am a normal and sane person and not a lunatic with split personality I proceeded to ask him the following question: Have I gone nuts trying to write articles yet?

I could not believe his answer until somebody else confirmed the whole thing for me. As it turned out my dog did not know what I was talking about nor did he know what the word nuts meant. He thought nuts were something to eat, I just left it with that and went away.

All kidding aside, writing articles can be a drag at times. Get into it as a fun thing to do, not as a job that must be done. Make time in a way that you can write effectively. Write about things you like to write about, something you know or maybe you are an expert at it. I can write about different subjects but not that many people can do that. Affinity is a great word, so write about subjects that you feel some affinity with. There are some article writing software programs that might help you get into the habit of writing. Use them; they can help you break the ice of reading and writing.

So how can you get yourself up to write articles, stories, poems or even press releases? I say to you do it very carefully; here is what I do, and has worked for me very effectively:

• Avoid writing when you are tired, frustrated or angry.
  
• Identify the time of the day or night when you think you are the most creative, that can take a while but it can help you tremendously. Try writing a few things at a time to confirm that indeed your creativity is flowing easily. Expand your writing time and article or story length as you go. Once you feel comfortable with the schedule repeat it as often as you can and develop a habit of doing so. I know many people who have several creative writing schedules. 
• Treasure and guard your creativity writing time. Your energy flows much easier and faster when you don’t have to fight time schedules, stress or even the biggest enemy of them all, noise. 
• Try avoiding simple distractions. We live in a world loaded with electronics. And many of us love electronics, but they can be a huge distraction, electronic media comes disguised as a cell phone, radio, TV, and iPods. 
• Let family and friends know that you are very busy at certain times of the day or night so they can refrain from calling, unless of course there is an emergency. 
• Avoid delivery people like FedEx, gas or electrical meter readers, and the good old friendly USPS unless they are carrying your checks. They are always making a nuisance of themselves; they love to talk and disrupt that precious and quiet writing time. Leave notes on your door with instructions on what to do with your mail or package. 
• Keep reminders of subjects you thought about during the day. They can be very helpful when you start to put your article ideas together. 
• Finally, write, write and write again. Its fun and you can make some money out of it, so enjoy.
  

In closing please do not go nuts trying to write articles yet - its not worth it -. Love to hear from LinkReferrals’ writers out there; I have seen many prolific writers in our community and I am sure they can teach us a thing or two.

So what's there for me to do?

Here is a little story about what has been my experience in the Internet, I hope you enjoy:

After several years of relentlessly trying to find that big pot-of-gold in the Internet I finally came to the realization that someone else may have found it already. To arrive to that drastic conclusion after so many tries and failures was like untying a chain off my ankles seventy-seven feet deep below the ocean. Once I disengaged myself from that strapping and drowning weight I was able to breathe and walk without any difficulties. It felt so good that I finally gave up my internet Pot O' Gold quest. But knowing that I have failed so miserably hit me like a ton of rocks on top of my head. What a letdown that was!

Meanwhile people that I love and care for were still asking me if I have found the gold yet. To experience that bitter-sweet moment of giving up and then the half-empty feeling of not having anything but guilt was my endless struggle.

Are you going through the same thing too? Well, think long and hard because it can ruin your life and lose the love and respect of those who care for you. Successful Internet marketers are few and far between. They claimed that there are only between 3 - 5% who actually made it in the internet. And many of them became winners in one instance only, that's right one time...And they are still looking for their second shot to hit it again.Unfortunately, many of them are still talking about that experience when it happened and have never learned.

So what have I learned out of this? What I learned out of this confusion was quite simple, and I can encapsulate that in a song sung in the movie by Kenny Rogers: Legend of the Gambler!

"You got to know when to hold em, know when to fold em,

Know when to walk away and know when to run.

You never count your money when youre sittin at the table.

Therell be time enough for countin when the dealins done."

And the song goes... I love this movie, it's a great escape.

I knew I had to fold them and walk away but I did not know how to do it. I could not continue to be a victim nor subsidizing any more scams, get rich overnight schemes, easy website prowlers and hackers or any more devious programs where your money is zapped and never seen again!

So what's there for me to do?

At first I could not think of anything to help me walk-away; I tried Relaxation and meditation. Started reading more ebooks by know-it all gurus, I even prayed faithfully or so I thought. Counseling, I was told was a great idea too, I even practiced motivational and self esteem building. But all was in vain, since I just could not find an answer to my thorny and difficult situation.

While all these intriguing actions and practices were taking place, I recall reading about a great man - I thought of Abraham Lincoln, - remember him? He could not win an election even if all his opponents were a bunch of liars and crooks. Perhaps not much different than what we experience today. Alright, I am exaggerating a little, - but just a little - there was a major difference, Abe was a decent and kind man and he had in his heart a passion to help his fellow man. And he had a strong belief that our beloved country could survive if he contributed enough of himself to change it and to motivate others to do the same. And that he did. What a story... ah? Well, now let's get back to my own story, not much to write about but still my own story, just forgive me if you will.

In order to be fairly successful in the internet you need a few things for your website:

•    Traffic.

•    Traffic.

•    And more traffic.

And that's as "crystal clear" as I can tell it. Tom Cruise said that in the movie A Few Good Men. Other than what I just described you do not need anything else to be a success in the World Wide Web.

Here are three steps to keep in mind to a fairly and sustainable success in the internet:

1.    Learn how to generate traffic (website visitors).

2.    Know what to sell and how to sell it to your visitors, and

3.    You must continue to generate traffic daily...

Yes, you got to continue relentlessly to generate traffic daily.

Did you have any fun doing it?

Well, I am delighted I got Link Referrals’ community’ attention; I promise you that you are not here in vain, if anything reading this short true story may give you a chuckle or two, I hope maybe even a good and healthy laugh.

It was a sunny and breezy Saturday morning in a day when the house was all to myself. Nobody was around and most of my chores were almost done. I was on my way to the shower, completely naked, and then heard our hard working mail man dropping our mail off. I waited for him till he finished his work and went away; then carefully I looked through the window, didn’t see a soul and went out the door to get my mail. I had been waiting for a few pieces of mail for a while – just a couple of checks and a load of bills of course –. I do not know what came over me, picking up the mail could have waited until I finished my shower, and  was fully clothed.  But a driven impulse took over me and that did it. I hopped over towards the mail box and retrieved my mail. As soon as I picked the mail I suddenly got that sinking feeling something was going to happen… and then I heard a loud and clear bam behind me, and something did happen.  When I turned around to confirm what had taken place I realized I had neglected to unlock the door and it shut behind me! Oops!

I raised my hands while holding the mail and took a hard look at the door and I said something really nasty; then I turned around looked down the street and I got that sinking feeling again. What am I going to do now? I am completely naked, nobody around and no cell phone to call anyone, and the house doors and windows completely shut for the winter. I started laughing and calling myself names for allowing such stupid incident to take place, and then I came to the realization that regardless what happened, I was in trouble and I needed to do something fast.

What could happen if I knock on my neighbors’ doors without any cloths on, would they laugh or would they call the cops? Should I wait in the backyard completely naked as I was for somebody to come? That could take several hours and I would surely freeze to death I thought. How long would it take for a human being to freeze to death, do you know? Of course I did not know that either. Can I start Walking Naked  in the street with one hand in the front and the other in the back without being noticed? If am lucky, maybe a few people will join me – naked of course - and we all walk together as if we have something to complain or celebrate about.  I’m sure when they see my smiling face they will think I am up to something and they will definitely want to be part of it too.  What could happen if the cops come and see me naked, would they call for back up and reinforcements? Or they may play it safe and call the FBI instead? Can they do that to me?

While all these thoughts are playing out in my head and old friend driving by saw me and shouted from inside his car: “Find the smallest glass in the house and break it so you can get in.” I shout back at him and told him to hush up. He knew exactly what has taking place. He came out of his car with a smirk on his face; "you look very pale" he said. Of course I look pale, I was freezing. We looked around for several minutes and finally decided on a glass out of the basement. We broke it but then realized it was too small and very difficult to reach the floor inside. I was glad that did not work. Can you imagine what a picture would that be with half of my body hanging inside the house and my ass sticking out the broken window?

We were looking for another window-glass to break and suddenly a cop sneaked up behind us. He was very serious and quite surprised to see a clothed man with a wooden stick in his hand and a freezing naked man standing alongside with him. Are you the owner of this house? He asked very firmly and authoritatively!  Yes I replied... Can you show me some identification? My friend could not help it but he burst out laughing very loudly. And then he said to the cop pointing at me: “Look at him, he is naked” As if I did not know that I was naked and cold, and to add salt to injury they both started laughing hysterically.
   
I joined in the fun and we laughed for several minutes but nobody realized that I was really freezing and I needed to get some clothes on right away. The cop called my wife and she said she was on her way in with the house key. He turned around towards his patrol car and told me to follow him to get a blanket and to help him with his paper work. Walking towards the car he took his walkie-talkie and reported the incident to his superiors, apparently, and he started laughing hysterically again. I did not think that was very nice. I just wanted to get some cloths on to get warm and the hell with his fun, his superiors, and the paper work, but I did it anyway!

My neighbors came and looked inside the car and noticed that I was naked and they started to ask questions and to allude that perhaps I have lost it, and that the police had the right idea to lock me up. When my wife came, I ran inside our house with her as fast as I could and the cop hastily ran after me to get his blanket. And of course, that’s all my neighbors needed to see to confirm how justified the cop was to lock me up. Finally, when the whole episode was over, and after a few drinks, my wife came up to me and asked: Did you have any fun doing it? Is that something you do when there’s nobody else in the house? Shame on you! Of course I did not respond to that remark, I had enough for the day already. I simply went back to read Amazon's 100 best sellers.

Introduction:
I do not want anyone spitting any labels on me once you have read the "Writing Articles for free advertising online" article I have featured here. My only motivation is to provide good and comprehensive information on how to be more effective creating free awareness about your site or blog writing articles. I know the author, whom I do not know is going to get a good plug from "Free advertising online writing articles" so be it. His effort is well deserved and earned.

I read a lot of information and found that there are many writers and companies providing expertise about the same subject. LinkReferrals enjoys a huge number of them in its membership as well. I do not claim a lot of knowledge on the topic and that should be a compelling reason to feature the article here. However, I am learning a few things about search engines, especially Google, Yahoo and MSN and I think it’s fascinating on how they gather data. Once they crawl or spider your site an index is created to come back at a later date and continue to fill it. Compiling and tracking keywords is an amazing and complicated function. And to think, it's done a zillion times per second to crawl every existing site and page in the World Wide Web. That's mind bungling to me.

I cannot help it but to think about the movie The Matrix. In the movie Morpheus tells Neo – The One - about intelligent machines driven by solar power, designed in the 21st Century, trying to slave humans. I love Keanu Reeves's and Lawrence Fishburne's acting skills. Awesome, isn’t it?

Writing Articles for free advertising online

Of all the article marketing tips I could give you, writing articles for free advertising online is likely the most beneficial to you if you currently spend money on advertising your website. There are several reasons for this, but the major reasons why article writing can bring you better results than expensive pay per click (PPC) adverts or taking a chance with reciprocal links are detailed below.
Keep in mind that Google is not keen on reciprocal links unless the page you are reciprocating with relates to the page on your website that the link points to, and the link is no good to you in any case if it is one of many others on a ‘links’ or ‘partners’ page created predominantly for such links. You only get a share of the PR of the page your link is on, not that of the ’site’, and even that is shared between all the other links on the page.

Being one of 5 links on a page with a PR of 1 is better than one of 50 on a page with a PR of 8. If you take these article marketing tips, writing articles can offer you a form of free advertising online that Google itself provides willingly, and that can work for you for many years to come. Here is how to go about writing articles to get you the benefits that free online advertising has to offer:

1. Write an article about your niche, using a conversational style as if you were explaining what you are writing if talking to somebody face to face – just as I am doing now in fact. Offer interesting information that anybody involved or interested in your niche would find useful. It doesn’t have to be earth-shattering news, but what you write must be factual and show that you have a firm grasp of your subject. You want people to continue reading once they have started.
2. At the end of your article, provide a link to your website. You can say something about yourself if relevant, such as a brief word about your qualifications and experience if the topic warrants it, or do as I do and simply offer a link to your site for more information. You can use more than one link if relevant. When writing articles for free advertising online you should keep in mind:
   
   
   1. You should never include a live link within the body of the article. Directories do not like these (more on article directories shortly).
   2. Only use multiple links in your resource if relevant. Thus, I include a link to my product and also one to my Article Services website that is focused on writing articles and my own ghostwriting services. c) Most article directories offer a special box for your link and other details (known as the ‘author’s resource’), but if not then you should add it to the end of your article. Never write an article without a link back to your website. That’s what gets you the free advertising.
3. Having finished writing your article, the power of writing articles and article marketing now comes into play to get you a ton of free advertising. You get that by submitting your articles to article directories. This can be done in a number of ways, the most common being:
   
   
   1. Manual Submissions You should choose a number of the top article directories, register with them and then submit your articles manually. This will take you about 5 minutes per directory. Your articles should be submitted in plain text format, so if you have written them in Microsoft Word, copy the Word text and paste it into a text editor such as Notepad. A Google search for ‘article directories’ will give you lists of the top directories.
   2. Software Submissions You can use software to make the submissions for you. Most of these work whereby you enter each part of your into a box provided for it: Title, Summary, Article body, Keyword list, Resource – parts of these will be in plain text and HTML, particularly the resource. You then scroll down a list of directories loaded into the software, click on those to which you want to submit, and the article submission is made automatically. You have to provide the software with your login details for each directory, where relevant (no all directories need a login), or log in to each individually.
   3. Article Submission Services You can use a paid article submission service that will submit your articles to a number of directories for a fee – either paid individually or monthly. I use all three of these methods for my submissions for maximum exposure and best results.
   4. Don’t worry about duplicate content when you submit the same article to loads of directories and ezines. That will take a few months to come into play and you can make up for it by writing an article each week.

Using these article marketing tips on writing articles will get you free advertising online in the following ways:

• Your article will be published on a number of article directories. If you use the right directories, these will further syndicate your articles to other directories and ezines and so on. It is viral, your articles being distributed around the internet. You get a back link to the pages stated in your author’s resource from every directory and ezine that publishes your article. That link is valuable in attaining you a high search engine listing position.
• People read your articles on the directories. This is fact, irrespective what others say. If you have done the job properly, these readers will possibly click on your link to visit your website for more information. Make sure that your link leads them to a web page related to the title of your article.
• An article published on a directory page is a single web page, just like any other. It can therefore be listed on Google or any other search engine. I have literally tens of dozens of articles scattered around search engines on various topics, optimized for specific keywords. That’s what free advertising is, and writing articles can achieve that for you if you take these article marketing tips.
• Many people will copy your article as content for their own website: to do that they must retain your resource containing your link. Writing articles just got you even more free advertising!

These are just some of the ways in which writing articles can get you free advertising online, and if you take these article marketing tips seriously then you could save yourself a lot of money on advertising costs, and get better results by doing so!

Are we gluttons for punishment or just simply mindless dorks?

 
While taking a computer brake I caught myself glancing at an overcasted fall afternoon sky, and then the word glutton came up in my head quite suddenly. Oh! I thought something remarkable was going on since the broad meaning of the word kept on connecting sentences in my brain. It looked like a power-loaded business presentation showing phrases with bullets and bold letters on a lighted board. And then it disappeared in a similar way it came, quite unexpectedly.

I waited a few seconds and nothing else happened, then I noticed my dog staring at me as if he was saying, hey don’t worry... It happens to me all the time...brilliant moments come and go in my head but after a while I don’t remember a darn thing! That surely did not made feel good at all, especially coming from a dog.

Don’t you feel the same way sometimes? You think you have a great home based business idea; one which will make you famous and perhaps a millionaire but then it turns out it’s just an unstructured thought in your head? Unfortunately, we keep on going back to things which remind us how we are going to make money in the comfort of our homes and working just a few minutes at day. If we believe that we may never make money in the World Wide Web. Only scammers think that way and they know how to charge a bundle for it.

Brad Callen's Adworks tool can be a lethal weapon when used properly

What I can not understand is why we continue to get excited in internet business opportunities without proper investigation and research? Why are we so gullible and easily impressed? Or are we gluttons for punishment or just simply mindless dorks?

We know the Internet is a never-ending source of information and a decisive motivator for those pursuing frustrated and unaccomplished life dreams. It’s a boundless source of scammers and soulless creeps preying on the naive and money starving marketers. Therefore, shouldn’t we be more careful before we start launching our monies on somebody’s venture? But then and again, we do not need anyone to tell us what to do with our spare time and much less how to spend our money... Do we?

Sailing in a boat jam packed with gold dreaming fools

Building a Residual Income Online a is quite a challenge, full of obstacles and difficulties. Findings showed that about 97% of Internet marketers never make money online, and many of them cannot even make their seed money back. Meanwhile, we continue putting cash onto sites that have never made enough to pay for their own expenses.  Why is that so prevalent in the internet, you may ask?

Well, I have my own version, and I attribute that to our own ignorance and greed. We allow the so called “gurus”, whatever that word means to tell us where that gold is going to come from and follow them impregnated with their hype, fancy language and stylish websites. At the end of the day we have our pockets full of dreams instead of our hard earned dollars.The truth is that before you make any money online you will be scammed a few times and many of them quite costly if you are honest about it.

You can avoid falling into scammers muddy hands by doing your own research and by consulting others who may have done theirs and find out the real scoop, and hopefully, avoiding a few home income business online scammers.

Program diversification is a good tactic to minimize your losses online; by applying this defense mechanism you are able to counterbalance your profit vs. losses ratio. However, you are not contributing to building awareness so scammers can not take advantage of novices and inexperience internet marketer dreamers. Develop a plan to max out your spending and keep a strict rule not to break your own mandate. Greed is a bad bedfellow which motivates the innocent to wonder in different ways. Unfortunately, as someone said: “money is an aphrodisiac” and we surely feel that way because sometimes I think I am sailing in a boat jam packed with gold dreaming fools.

How I started free recruiting and advertising for revenue sharing programs

.
I have finally found a simple, and until a few months ago, an effective way to advertise, free, all my Revenue Sharing referral links. Millions are doing it but I just could not get my mind into it because I felt I was not good enough, and come to think of it, I may not be good enough.

Then I read an article written by Travis Sago and for some odd reason I got it! I started to write articles and website reviews. Wrote my first article and viola!! I can do it; I felt that my English teacher was no longer behind me telling me how stupid I was, or my old Army buddy saying that I was the truthful personification of an idiot when I spoke; of course, he was talking about me in a new suit I had just purchased with my GI money. Well, he was right; the suit did not look that good on me, but that was all could afford. We both had a good laugh afterward, when I decided to take the suit back to the store, and found out they did not want to replace it, of course they knew why.

Once I was able to get all the monkeys off my back, and decided to go ahead and do it, I started writing. Ok so I am still an inadequate writer; with somewhat limited understanding of the English language, after all English is my second language. I can say one thing though, hopefully without offending too many people: I can sure write better than some and with much more humor than most. And you can take that to the bank after you start writing and building some real income using free online advertising for your revenue sharing programs. Business advertising for Free is the key for your success. There are no alternatives for your free internet advertising in the web.

Article writing is an effective form of advertising and getting free recruiting for your site. I highly recommend it and I hope you can create a real second income as I have to help me subsidize my retirement.

And remember that revenue sharing sites have become the new excitement online today; and with some business knowledge the sky is the limit. Here, no one loses and everyone has a good chance to gain. Provided you maintain a cool head and a close grip to your money.
