Submitting Articles Directly to Ezines

A lot of people don’t know that submitting articles directly to ezines is a wonderful way to supercharge article marketing efforts.

It makes perfect sense, but somehow this article marketing method is grossly overlooked by beginners and gurus alike.

Here’s the logic of why submitting articles directly to ezines is a powerful and effective strategy.

When you submit your article to an article directory (and you should) you are one of MANY other articles on the site.

Maybe your article will be found – maybe not.

But when your article appears in an ezine it is the ONLY article in that ezine.

So, every reader of that ezine can read YOUR article without the distraction of a million other articles all screaming “read me!”

Don’t get me wrong, article directories are great. But if you are marketing with articles, or want to, and are not submitting directly to ezines you are leaving money on the table.

I know that’s true because I’ve been there. When I was first a member of the DOE (Directory of Ezines) I submitted articles as often as I could. And it worked.

Effective article marketing is a BIG part of how I went from being a member of the DOE to owning the company.

How can you find the right ezines for your articles?

The DOE of course!

Between our database of ezines and the personal consulting I offer it’s the best value online.

What Do I Do First? What Do I Do Next?

Once you have decided to do Internet marketing you are faced with an almost insurmountable task, the task of beginning. If you have an Internet marketing background like selling on EBay or you’re familiar with Internet jargon your learning curve will be much shallower and easier.  Nevertheless, you will have a learning curve.

You can level your learning curve by seeking a mentor or you can go it alone. Many choose to go it alone because they’re broke and they have heard the call of making fast money online. In ten days, in thirty days, you will be a millionaire. Some might, most won’t. Are you one of the many who won’t be successful at Internet marketing? Find out how not to be one the unfortunate many and what you should do first. Read this.

This is not about buying into some program or finding a mentor. If you’re broke, you don’t have the money to buy into a program and most mentors aren’t consulting for free. So forget that.

Guru Magic – Saying No!


You decide that Internet marketing is for you.  All you have to do, if you’re an affiliate, is sell someone’s product and you are on your way.  Wrong!

How many of us have been flooded by emails announcing the one secret you need to insure your success in Internet marketing?  Or maybe surfing the Internet, you click on links and hit a ‘squeeze page’ or ‘landing page’.  Secrets like keyword mastery, traffic generation, perfecting your writing skills, advertising secrets, indispensable software, and e-books, are just a few.

If you are new to this, you have experienced this.  I have.  As a newbie I am so very tempted to buy them all.  I almost have.  Maybe you have too?  There’s no doubt that there are tools that you have to buy to advance your knowledge.  The question is how many programs, e- books, or videos do you have to buy to learn the secret to success?  Probably a lot fewer than you think.  Read the rest of this entry »
