How To Generate Traffic - Increase Income - And Build Your List

To be successful on the Internet, you need to develop a growing stream of traffic, generate income, and build your list. If you can accomplish these three goals, you will be successful online. Writing articles is an excellent way to achieve all three of these goals. That is, if you do it properly. Of course all of your articles should be about engaging subjects and have great titles to attract maximum readers. Assuming that your article satisfies these two objectives, how do you generate traffic, increase income and build your list? You accomplish these things with a great resource box.

The resource box is your compensation for writing the article. This is the section, usually below your article where you post your advertising. Many people tell about how great they are or their accomplishments in the resource box. Unless you are running for public office, this is probably a mistake.

Most article directories allow you to place three links in your resource box. You should take full advantage of this and include the maximum number of links that they allow. After all, this is the only compensation that you will receive for writing the article. You may as well get the most bang for your buck.

If the article directory allows it, use anchor links in the resource box, the search engines favor this type of link. If the directory does allow html, use plain text links using the full web address. Make sure to begin with http.

In each resource box, include a link to your opt in page. This will build the size of your list. And in this business, those with the largest lists have the highest incomes. Always include a link to your opt in page!

In addition, always include 2 additional links. Ideally, these should direct visitors to two of your own products, or a page on your site where you stand to make some money. If you do not have your own product, use affiliate products. Unfortunately, some article directories will not allow links directly to affiliate products. Read the directory’s terms of service to determine if it is allowed.

By including a resource box with the maximum number of links allowed, you can generate traffic, increase income, and build your list.
