VA Tip - Your Virtual Assistant Can Implement and Manage Article Marketing By Sophia Zollmann

Article marketing is another way to get your business name and expertise out to your target market. There are many sites on the web for posting your articles. Creating a free account and submitting an article is not difficult or time consuming for one site. However, it is most effective to submit to multiple sites two or three times a week. The more article sites you choose, the more time it will take.

A Virtual Assistant can research the best article sites for your target market and expertise and set up accounts at each one. Once that is done, article submission can begin. Articles can be created from scratch or pulled from your blog. Re-purposing existing content will simplify the article submission process.

Your Virtual Assistant can submit two or three unique articles to each site on a regular basis. The article site will review and approve your article and notify you when it is published. Once it is published, your VA can announce it on Twitter, Facebook and LinkedIn. Many sites allow you to automatically tweet your new article to Twitter. You can also include links to your articles in your newsletter.

One benefit of article marketing is driving traffic to your site. Each submission includes a Resource Box that contains a short bio of who you are and a link to your website where readers can learn more. Another benefit of article marketing is that other people can use your articles on their blog or website providing even more exposure to potential clients.

Article marketing is a great way to gain credibility and market your business to reach more ideal clients. Talk to a Virtual Assistant to set up an article marketing system that works best for you.
