One of first products I created to sell on-line was a ‘Management’ e-book.
I had 30 years experience of being a Manager and managing people so I thought that would be an easy and good start.
Thee years later, it still sells today.
“Create once, sell many times” is a motto I like!
I have updated it and added extra bonuses etc throughout the thee years but 90% of the work was the original creation.
Back in July this year, Squidoo started cracking down on what you could and couldn’t add to one of their lenses.
Far too many people were adding lens after lens which just talked about affiliate products and gave no advice, whatsoever.
So the inevitable crackdown came. At the time, Squidoo said:
1. No Spam. This one’s not new!
2. No more X-rated or Porn lenses
3. No Junk Topics from our “SquidDon’t” List
4. A new limit on overly promotional lenses
Back in July, there was a huge amount of positive to come from these changes.
Imagine having 100 of the top blogging and SEO experts in a room and asking them, “Should we use Article Marketing as part of our on-line business?”
There would be arguments for, arguments against.
There’d be shouting and swearing, maybe even a bit of pushing and shoving. Well, maybe not, but wouldn’t it be fun to watch?
Why?
Because some would say, definitely include article marketing, some would say don’t, some wouldn’t know either way and some wouldn’t care!
So there is no correct answer, to “Should we use Article Marketing as part of our on-line business?”

I’ve tried 3 different ways to submit articles to directories:

Too Much Information!
In the first blog posting of this series we discussed the overall benefits of Article Marketing and how it can generate loads more traffic to your site.
In the second we discussed How To Write An Article Headline That Compels Readers to Take Action!
And today, we shall discuss writing the Main Body, the Conclusion / Summary and How To Write An Effective ‘non-selling’ Resource Box that makes visitors click through to your website.
So let’s start with:
The Body

So hard to start writing...
Anyone can write a 500 – 800 word blog posting (article) and submit it to an Article Directory.
But a badly written article can cause you and your reputation a lot of damage. You have probably read some badly written articles.
How does that make you feel?
It doesn’t inspire you to take further action, visit the persons website, does it?
A badly written article may even drive people away from your blog / website rather than drive people towards it.
