Article marketing is alive and well. However, it is not enough to throw some words together and call them an article.

Today more than ever you need to write quality content that your readers and article directories are looking for. You also need to write with the search engines in mind.

In this article lets offer a few tips that can help you make sure your article is ready to submit keeping in mind your reader, article directories, and search engines.

1. Fresh content. Check your content to make sure it's 100% unique. It should not contain sentences or paragraphs that are word for word in other content online.

Search engines are constant looking for fresh content. Article directories have been punished by Google, and other search engines, for publishing content that is not unique. They are not looking for articles that are already on the Internet in various places.

If you are writing fresh content your readers will appreciate that. This also helps to brand yourself as a quality writer and an expert in the niche you are writing on.

2. Inform your audience of 1 main point. Many writers try to do too much with their articles.

Articles that end up with considerably more than 400 word should be broken into multiple articles. Keep in mind than one main thing you want to cover in your article and focus on it.

This will make it less confusing for your readers. It will also help you rank higher on search engines for the primary keyword phrase in your main point.

3. What is article marketing? Write a short run effective resource box at the end of your article.

Article marketing is more than just submitting your article to an article directory. The primary goal of your article is to drive traffic to your website. You do this in the resource box by hyperlinking your keyword phrase to your website home page or other pages on your site.

4. Keywords matter. Target a keyword phrase in your articles.

Pay attention to keyword density. Don't stuff your article with the same keyword over and over.

Use variations of your primary keyword phrases in the body of your article. Write so it sounds natural to the reader and search engines.

For whatever reason article article writers lose sight of these important article writing tips. Now more than ever article marketing has become a valuable Internet marketing tool to make money online. Do it correctly and your online business will benefit from it!
