Three Keys to a Successful Article Reprint Request

You can be successful in requesting your articles be reprinted on targeted niche websites if you know how to ask.

Key One: Submit Your Requests to the Right Websites Don't send out mass emails requesting your article be added to random websites.

Instead, take time to find websites that are a good fit for your articles, where your target market gathers and read.

Key Two: Connect With the Website Owner

There should be an easy to articulate reason that you want your articles published on the website you're contacting. Are you a long time reader of the site? A fan of the blog?

Love their newsletter? What draws you to the site? Did you notice they're looking for content?

Why is your content a good fit for their readers?

Including a short note in your email request that lets the website owner know that you're familiar with their site, their content, and that you're not randomly sending form emails. They'll be much more likely to read your email and consider your request. If you've been published on similar sites, include those links. If you have linked to their
website from yours, note that in the email.

Key Three: Make it As Easy As Possible

If you make it as easy as possible for the site to publish your articles and you're more likely to get a yes.

Include the article you're pitching in the body of the email in plain text format, ready to go, with your bio box at the bottom. Many email readers are wary of opening attachments from unknown contacts so don't expect someone who doesn't know you to open an attached copy of your article.

Also include a link to where the site owner can find more of your content for reprint, such as your WAHM Articles author page. If they like the article you submitted they might reprint more of your articles.
