Writing articles and distributing them on multiple aggregration sites is a great way to get some more site traffic. If you need some more ideas of where to post your articles you should take a look at this list: socialseo.com/the-best-free-article-syndication-sites.html As for your question, how to get more views on your distributed articles, you should Google search 'How To Linkwheel'. It is an SEO method of linking all your articles to one another to generate further traffic. It is rather time consuming, but it works. Google/Yahoo/Bing still give linkwheeling quite a bit of credence (even while they don't give normal backlinks as much) due to the time it takes to set them up - it's not something that everyone is doing, so it's still effective. If you need any help with getting some linkwheels started, feel free to shoot me a message and I can give you some free help. Cheers, Ben. ---This post was edited to remove a commercial link.

Use keywords in article is second point from my point of view, what i suggest you is dont write dozen's of article better write unique and quality article that will attract more to visitors. Your title and summary should be very informative that visitors like to read whole artilce. I am 100% sure if one or two person likes your aritcle they will definately share with there friends, so you have no need to do so much promotion. Because many of us write dozen aricle and doing lot of promotion but result nothing, so better see what visitors wants? This is fact, quality article automatically get traffic. After that you can google it keyword research tool for your site for keywords selection.

Article Marketing is an exceptional way to get the word out about your business. You can establish yourself as the authority in your niche by writing and submitting articles.

Oneapproach to consider is to find the major content sites in your market and offer your articles to them directly. This way you are getting your articles in front of your target audience directly. Traditional article marketing is great for building backlinks to boost your rankingsbut is not so hot at getting in front your ideal customer. master cleanse

Erin, Everyone seems to be talking about one particular part of the puzzle but it's more complex than that. Article marketing (as it is known) is a fine art honed over many years. Firstly start with the big names like ezinearticles, Articlesbase and Articledashboard. Get unique content articles to these guys for your biggest natural distribution. There are 1000's of lesser article directories most of which are a waste of time unless you automate your article distribution. Secondly, you are right! Keywords are important. You need to consider two things. relevancy to your product/business and competition in the search engines. I.e you can write an article on 'diet' which will have 10 million searches in Google and not one will find your article. If, on the other hand' you wrote an article on 'low fat diet for the over 50's' then there may be only 5,000 searches in Google but you have a very good chance of getting most of them to find your article.Don't worry about 'less people seeing your article' asin practice if you target less competitive keywords you will actually get more readers and hence more traffic to your website. The last ingredient is the links to your article. One reason to use EzineArticles and the like is that they are already authority sites with thousands of strong back links and that alone can propel your article to the first page of Google if you target the right keywords. If it doesn't then you need to build links to your actual article URL. Plenty of info on the web on how to do that. That's all there is to it, if you want to stay on what we call the white hat side of the rules, and keep your website in favour with all the search engines (especially Google).

I second what Amelia is saying. If you want to get views to your articles, there are two main approaches: 1) Do keyword and competition research to see how easy/hard it will be to rank on a particular article site for your keyword. There is software to help you do this such as MicroNicheFinder, MarketSamurai, Link Assistant and many others. 2) Search article directories for articles that are already getting views in certain areas and for certain subjects/titles within your niche and figure out from their platform how to get your article to show up as related articles.

I agree with you. There's a lot of techniques to expose your site in different strategies in your niche. Social bookmarking and directory submission is another thing. I find it very helpful.
