All you need to do is to offer free articles and attract a lot of targeted visitors to your articles. You can do this by many ways. In this article let me suggest some nice methods to do this effectively.

Where to write your sample articles?

You can write your sample articles in sites like

• Hubpages
• Contentcaboodle
• Helium
• Associated content

I suggest these sites because these sites gives you royalty for writing free articles and it is suitable for international members .Just sign up and follow the instructions given to get royalty for the article you write. The best site I know with high royalty is contentcaboodle.com.

Now let’s come to the point

How to drive quality traffic to the articles

Method 1

The best way I know to bring quality traffic to your articles is to answer related questions. Let me give you an example so you can understand better.

For example, let’s say you are wrote an article on “how to make a website” then you can advertise in yahoo answers like this.

1. Go to http://answers.yahoo.com
2. Use the yahoo answers advanced link near search for questions search box
3. In the advance search fill these

• In keywords select all these words and type “make a website” without quotes
• In search keyword matches select questions
• In category select “all” option
• Filter “select all English questions”
• Question status – select “open questions”
• for clear understanding, please see the picture below
• Date submitted – select anytime ( all we need is it must be open to answer)

 (Click the thumbnail to view it larger.)

4. Click search button

5. You will find many questions, select them and click answer question and give a genuine but short answer.

6. In the source box include your article link (how to make a website)

7. You will get a constant number of people visiting your articles. (I say it is constant because unless your answer is spam, it would not be deleted. so that every time people search for this topic in yahoo answers they will find your answer and visit your article)

Tips: If you don’t want to give big answers in yahoo answers so you can save time, but your answer should not look like spam. You can use something similar to this.

“I wrote a free article on the internet on this topic which may be useful to you. Detailed instructions on “how to build a website” is given here. Hope it will be useful to you”

It will save a lot of time and you can answer a lot of answers

Once you become famous as a writer of free articles, you can start selling your articles in websites. Some of the sites are listed below and also in other webmaster forum marketplaces

Method 3

You can use youtube and other video sites to advertise your articles. all you have to do is to download a screen capture software like camstudio or wink ( both are freeware) and make nice introduction video to your article and provide your article link in the description of the video with some description. This technique is very nice and powerful.

Method 4

You can join newsgroups like yahoo groups ( related to the article topic and send your article to all group users ( it is not spam , so don’t be afraid to do it . )
