This is the time to start firing up writing skills to all writers and non-writers wishing to increase exposure through article marketing.
With the development of the internet technology, you can achieve the cheapest and most effective marketing through the article submission which will generate leads and increase your sales. This is why article writing, article submissions and publications are also getting popular.
There are so many tools and services that will help you to distribute your articles easily. Though this is invaluable in getting the contents more exposure, which is only half of the story.
Let us take a look first at the common mistakes that some people make before submitting their contents to article directories:
1. Confusing the reason to promote the articles with the reason to write them.
In article writing, there are three key benefits why you are promoting them; branding, lead generation and promotion, which are all part of your optimization efforts.
The only reason why you writing articles is to educate your readers. If the article is not focused on this primary and most important purpose, it will fail to achieve the three promotion benefits because no one will be interested in reading them.
You should figure out how to get the attention that will make the readers to read your article and make them click on your links. You can achieve this by producing better contents.
2. Failing to maximize the promotional opportunities of article marketing.
You already know that published articles can help you to get more and more backlinks to your site. But do you have an idea that more visitors and higher search engine positions can be the result of submiting the same article?
Sprinkle some keywords in the article. Just be sure not to overdo them. When you can use anchor texts, your marketing campaigns will become more effective.
But it is important to know that majority of the directories are not able to support this.
Remember that is not only about the links back to your site. Part of doing well in your article marketing is getting picked up by publishers with a large number of audiences and gaining the ability of leveraging other brands because of the quality of your work. Better search engine results also are great benefits.
The only thing is that these things will not increase your earnings that much. There are other factors that can turn your article marketing efforts into an opportunity that can boost your earnings. Not only increase number of new visitors to your website.
Have a plan first and have your article to have a function you wanted to have.
3. Submitting content without having your readers challenges in mind.
When creating articles, maybe all you have on your mind is to increase the number of back links to your site. And any visitors it can generate are fine.
Guess what? Not all article banks and directories are going to accept your content automatically. Most of the time they have specific guidelines on articles that are accepting.
You can double the number of sites you can submit to by writing articles that the directories want to share with other people. All it takes is one publisher with a hundred thousand readers to increase your potential audience overnight.
Write the articles that publishers want in their publications if you want your article marketing to work the most effective way for you. That being sai you need to obey the rules, spellings, dong the research or outsourcing the whole artcile writing to a ghost writer.
At last that will be the choice you need to make. You will start getting more exposure from increased backlinks to your site. Or enjoy massive exposure from a little extra time making quality contents.
You need to decide. You do not have to know about the fact that article you have submitted to the article directory will not have the same exposure like targeted content written for specific group of people.
Learn the difference between these two and it will surely help you know what kinds of articles to write and to submit.

How I Used The Fresh Papaya (PawPaw):
The fruit was to be consumed ‘As is’ because we always have a small plate of fruit everyday around 5 pm.
I planned on adding a teaspoon of seeds into my Yogurt at lunchtime.
The ‘Coleslaw’ I would add to any Salad (even in a sandwich) as it’s summertime in Oz and we are eating a lot of Salads. Don’t know what I am going to do in the Winter though? If you have any ideas please add them as a comment so everyone can benefit.
I had also planned on five serves per day because I thought it would be better to ‘Drip Feed’ it into me, as my wife thinks I am a ‘Drip’ sometimes anyway – so that should fit.

Monday 6th Feb 2012: My Prostate Cancer Diary.
So here is the problem. I have dismissed Surgery completly and that leads me to Radio Therapy as the only available conventional medical alternative.
My Oncologist want me to have Hormone Treatment to:
- a: Slow the Growth of the Cancer cells by (basically) chemically castrating me. Ouch!
- b: Shrink the Prostate down to a smaller target for his magic Death Ray.
I didn’t want to do that with Hormone treatment, but can appreciate why he wants to do that.
So I’m looking into all types of Natural and Alternative medications.
The best I have come up with is PawPaw (Papaya) as there have been quite a few studies with very promising reasults, PLUS it has been… Continue reading Prostate Cancer Diary - My Natural Alternative
Prostate Treatments and Me.
Long time coming since my last post – but I have been kinda busy…. Tests – tests and more tests 
So this is the latest:
My Urologist sent me to the Radio Oncologist because I decided I do NOT want surgery. Apparently I can’t have Brachyatherapy (my original choice) because my Gleason Score is 8 – too high, so External Beam Therapy is the only option, even though they only found cancer cells in ONE of the TEN Biopsies they took.
HOWEVER: (I am discovering LOTS of ‘Howevers’), the Oncologist wants me to have Hormone Treatment first to bring my enlarged prostate down in size.
An ‘Average’ prostate is about 40mm – about the size of a small Plum -… Continue reading My Personal Prostate Cancer Treatment Options
