Take these tips and your article will be most effective in sending high quality, pre qualified traffic to your site.
Write an Article that Reaches Your Target Audience
Make sure that your article is not only addressing your industry but also your target audience. Consider the demographics of who will be interested in your site.

Include Very Strong Content
You need to impress your readers with your knowledge and understanding of your topic. If your readers trust you and see you as an authority, then they will be motivated to visit your site for more great information.
Have a Strong Introduction
Your introduction should summarize your article. It needs to only be a couple of sentences but should peak your readers interest and encourage them to keep reading. Often a reader will read the into paragraph and discover that they do not want to slug their way through the whole article. Make sure the introduction is concise and pushes the reader on.
Use Bullet Points
All of us like to read and process information quickly. Bullet Points keep the readers attention so that they finish the article without getting distracted. Follow each bullet with a couple of sentences elaborating your point.
Don t Bore the Reader with too much Detail
Remember to keep it short and to the point so the reader will make it all the way through the article. Leave the very detailed information for the reader to discover at your link.
Leave the Reader Wanting to Know More
Share really great information but always communicate that their is much more to learn. Readers should feel motivated to finish the investigation and get more great information that will meet their need.
Have a Sincere Interest in Your Reader and a Desire to Help
If your not a person who is motivated to help others then article marketing isn t for you. Without this desire to help someone, your article is little more then a sales pitch. When you are motivated to help it translates in your article and will reach your reader.
Create a Resource Box With a Link that Offers More Free Information
The resource box or author information area is your opportunity to give your sales pitch and invite the reader to learn more about the addressed topic. Make sure your resource box is accurate. Don t mislead the reader by promising something that isn t at the end of the link. Communicate clearly what the link has to offer and how it can meet the readers need.
