If we could have a conversation across the table from each other, and I were to share a few tips about article marketing, this is what I would say:

Read below as we share the top 5 article marketing tips that will save you from wasting time and eliminate frustration.

Learning these important components of article marketing will definitely place you ahead of the class, even though the master key of article marketing is consistency.

Have you often wondered why some articles end up in an e zine publishers newsletter with ten thousand subscribers, while the article you spent 3 days writing, perfectly, with facts and figures get just a couple of views or a proverbial middle finger?

You wrote an article in which you feel like you've followed the right format, yet still ...little to no success. You were told to write a keyword rich,( not keyword stuffed), substance oriented article, with keywords placed in the title.

That's all good, but here are a few other things you must do to drastically improve your chances of hitting the big times and getting picked-up by the super e-zine publishers.

How to Improve Your Chances of Having Your Article Published by the E-zine Publishers

1. Be sure to use multiple keywords: just don't repeat the same keywords over and over again. Not varying your keywords will seem like you are trying to manipulate Mother Google.

And no one messes with Mother Google. You don't want to ruffle her feathers. Focus on quality not quantity.

This is not a speed writing contest. This is a substance rich content thing. Your main goal is to write with passion and purpose. The ultimate goal is to educate your potential or current customer.

2.Your Headline: Be certain your Headline consist of your primary keyword. Your Headline, in a nutshell, should tell the reader what your article is about.

3. Use Subheadings: subheadings explain what the next paragraph talks about. Be sure to capitalize the first letters of each word in your subheadings:

Be sure to place a space before and after the subheading. Remember most people are skimmers, so your subheadings will allow them to go exactly where they prefer.

4. Create a List Element: what makes an article easy to read is breaking it down into scrumptious little bite-size pieces. And the easiest way to do that is by making a list.

You can provide numbered and unnumbered bullets, graphics, or checks. This will keep your reader from falling asleep or being bored.

5. Readability: the whole object behind using article marketing as a vital marketing tool is to have your info read.

And if you want your customers to read it, one of your first goals is to arrange it so that it's readable. Use short paragraphs. Short paragraphs are easier to read.

It's natural to see a long paragraph and not want to read it. In your customer's mind, they are thinking text book.

The objective is to offer a neat and clean format with keyword-rich informative or educational content spiced with passion and purpose.

This will help attract the attention of the e-zine marketers. So you will want to cross your tee's and dot your eyessss.

E- zine owners are very particular when it comes down to choosing an article for their home grown email list. But the reward for snagging just one e-zine publisher will be more than worth your while.
