Looking to increase traffic to your website or blog? If so then pay attention because Article marketing works. That’s how I drive traffic to my sites and why am I so sure that it works. To put it simply I’ve proven it by getting 50,000 unique visitors to my new website in less than 8 weeks just by following the five steps outlined below.

I want to keep this article short and to the point so I’m just going to give you a few quick tips to improve your article success.

1. Every day, create one original article. Simply by being consistent in creating content, you’ll eventually dominate 90% of your competition in a very short time period. If you create too much you won’t be able to promote it properly, however I want to make sure that you create at least one new article for the next 100 days.

2. Use spinning technology to create several variations of your articles and posts and submit them to as many article directories and blogs as you can find willing to post them. I take an extra 30 minutes per article and re-write all of the sentences 3 times. The next step I take is that I use the same software that creates the variations to submit my content to the top 200 article directories online. Because I’m creating unique articles by spinning the content, my articles are unique variations wherever they’re submitted, and I don’t have any problems with duplicate content.

3. You should link back to your original piece of content in your resource box. That way if Google thinks that it’s just a bunch of duplicate content, (which it won’t, if you re-write the sentences), at least it will all point back to your original article, and your website will come up first in the search engines. I’ve demonstrated that this works with more than 50 competitive, unique keyword phrases.

4. Promote your original piece of content using a short, 30 second video. All you have to do next is use one of the free video promotion services online to broadcast your video to the top sharing sites. Then you want to direct your video to link back to your original article. I use Traffic Geyser for my video promotion. You can use a free online service called TubeMogul as well, it just doesn’t work quite as fast or as effectively as Traffic Geyser.

5. Bookmark your original piece of content, and your YouTube video using OnlyWire.com, which is a free social bookmarking service that will submit your original article to 25 or so social bookmarking sites, which gives everything you do additional links and exposure.

That’s all for now! If you do those five steps once per day, every day, you’ll beat out your competition in a couple of months.
