Article writing on a continuous basis is one of the smartest things an internet marketer can do for keeping two important things flowing: traffic and money.

Articles do help you profit. They draw traffic to your site, they provide search engine optimisation, and they help you to continually build your brand.

A well-crafted and optimised article strategy can help you continually expand your ability to make money online. Here are some tips to help you keep online content flowing:

Join Challenges

There’s nothing quite like a good challenge to get you motivated. Ezinearticles has one called #HAHD. HAHD stands for Hundred Articles Hundred Days. Imagine the traffic, rankings, and potential sales that could come from 100 different articles pointing to your website(s)? Not just will you get those links but you’ll get links through social media and through article syndication as well.

Article Syndication

Speaking of article syndication, make sure that while you continually publish content on your website, blog, etc. that you also submit original articles to sites that allow for syndication. By publishing content on other sites, you get a valuable backlink and an increased chance of being noticed by new potential clients.

Subscribe To Your topic

One of the challenges of continually posting valuable content is to come up with ideas. The internet is an endless source of inspiration but you don’t always have the time to sit and research for ideas.

Don’t dismay. Get the research spoon fed to you. Set up your feed reader to get fed blogs and articles on your favourite subjects and set up some Google Alerts so that when you’re ready to sit down and write, you’ve got plenty of inspiration and ideas at your fingertips.

Schedule Your Time

Maybe you don’t feel it’s practical to sit down and write an article every single day but could you spend a few hours one day each week? Some internet marketers have designated days per month for various activities and you could spend time producing content for your blogs, article marketing sites, and creating for Web 2.0 pages and then space distribution out over the month.

Online content sells. It sells your brand, it sells ideas, it persuades, and it helps you gain valuable organic search engine rankings. Strategise to create as much content as possible and you will start to see a steady flow of traffic and sales or affiliate marketing commissions.
