Traffic Thursdays: Sales from Articles : Part Five - The Resoure Box

Hey, You're New Here! We love new people.

Please do us the honor of returning. You can subscribe by RSS feed, or get updates by email. We also welcome your feedback on the posted information. When filling out the form, don't forget to leave your link and your first name.

The Resource Box ties this all together.

When you read an article online, at the bottom you’ll find a few lines about the author. Here’s the goldmine, and the reason people give away free information.

You have normally five lines to share your link, brand yourself, talk a bit about your site or products and deliver a disguised sales pitch - which is the invitation to come to your site.

In this area, I link to include my email subscribe link, my feed link if there is enough room, and the link to the landing page I created for this article if there isn’t. I also include a wacky saying about myself (that’s how I brand myself as the crazy free traffic chick) or the statement that will pique curiosity and make them beat a trail to my stie.

For your own purposes with this model, here’s what you should include, in third person.

1 - A teaser that talks about the additional information on the topic, which will lead to your sales page
2 - The link to the landing page that provides this information.

To make this work best, turn it into a question or statement that you don’t answer in the article. Using our earlier example, you can say “Read part two of this article and find out how I get other people to pay for my Britney Spears poster”.Or you can say “Can you guess how I will take over the world with a simple Britney Spears poster?”

Then leave the link to the landing page.

And we’re done.

Here are some places to submit your article:

I’m really tired, so Freedom Fridays will probably be on Saturday. I’m really, really trying to take the doctor’s advice on taking it easy… so far I’m about 70% compliant. I may have some extras for you instead, depends on my score tomorrow…..
