After you have written your article you will want to submit it to article directories all over the Internet as well as use some of the different methods below to get your articles out where
people can find them.

In every article you write be sure and include a resource box at the end that promotes yourself, product and web site URL.

Here's some ways writing and submitting articles can help you grow your business.

- Once your article is written submit it to e-zines and web sites for them to publish it.The key is to put your resource box at the end of the article. This gives you free advertising promoting your website itself. The resource box is really a
small classified ad telling a little about yourself, or your business.

- When you have several articles written put them in a free e-book. You can place your business ad in the e-book and give it away for free. Allow it to be given away for free over and over as a form of viral marketing. This technique makes writing
articles a very powerful form of marketing as you never know when it will end!

- Start an article directory on your web site. Archiving your articles is a great way to provide free information for your web site visitors as well as provide fresh content for the search engines to spider.

- If you feel you are a good article writer try submitting them to various print publications like magazines and newspapers. Of course you will want to get a little bit about yourself and business in a resource box here as well.

- Combine a few of your articles together into a free report. Give away the free report as a bonus for buying your main product or service.

- Give people an instant article directory. Tell visitors they can instantly add a free article directory to their web site by linking to yours. All those links can add up to a large amount of traffic to your web site.

- Allow people to include your articles in their free e-books. Your article could end up being in 20 to 30 e-books in no time. You won't even have to promote the e-books.

- Set up an email automatic responder with some of your articles in it. This allows people to receive your articles instantly by email and they can then use them as they see fit.

The main point is do different things. Article writing offers tremendous opportunities to the marketer who learns how to write informational articles people want to read and then gets those
articles out in circulation a number of different ways.
