How To Attract Readers To Your Blog
Article writing is often suggested
as a way to market your product and your website. The truth is that, while
article marketing works, it only works if people read your articles completely.
But you can’t make people read your articles, right? You don’t have to use
force. By using the tips below, you can make your articles irresistible and
make sure they are visiting your website for more.
1. Write about something in a unique
way.
While the old saying says
“There is nothing new under the sun”, you can always write things in a fresh
way that has been done a million times before. Do a quick search for your
topic, and spot the overused topics; avoid writing about that yourself. Look
for a unique angle on a topic and go with that. If you can’t, change your
article into a first-person article. No one can duplicate your personal
experiences, and if you write your article from that perspective you will be
more likely to have people respond favorably to your article.
2. Be sure a market exists for the
topic you are writing about.
This can be tricky, because everyone imagines there to be a market for the
subject of their work, or else they would not do it. People just do not know
how to find out if there is a market. To do this, you must survey people in
some form. Ask existing customers if they would be interested in your topic.
You can also use the free keyword research tools out there to see if people are
searching for the topic you want to write on. If the topic only receives a few
dozen searches a day and doesn't seem to be trending upwards, forget it.
3. Use keywords to get search engine traffic.
When
you are writing your articles, use free keyword research tools to find out the
most searched for words related to your topic. Then be sure to use those words
in your articles. Don’t overdo it though. A lot of people stuff their article
with so many keywords that it becomes unreadable. But remember that your
ultimate goal is to attract readers to your site and your products. Is an
unreadable article going to accomplish that? No, it won’t. Try to keep keyword
density from about 2 to 3% in a 500-word article.
4. Write good articles with relevant
information.
Solve
someone’s problem and the article will be a success. Always write with the
customer in mind. Why would they want to read your article? Help them out and
they will respond favorably.
