Like everyone else you are probably writing unique high quality articles and submitting them to relevant sites and article directories. You’re done right? That’s all there really is to do right? Wrong!
There are a myriad of option for you to make your article stand out from the crowd and yes produce more links.
1) Reach out to the REAL websites who republish your articles.
At first blush, these seem simple and obvious- but think about the possibilities for just a second. Bear with me I promise it will be worth it. Right now you are submitting your quality articles to the same list of directories as everyone else. By contacting websites who already willingly republished your articles in the past you can establish a relationship with them.
The Idea is to give that website additional unique QUALITY content so long as they allow you to place a few links inside the article. In a short time you should be able to build up a really nice list of REAL websites that you can push content to in exchange for links while everyone else is playing in the same article directory sandbox.
Bonus Tip 1:
What’s that you say? You are new to this game and not a lot of REAL people have republished your articles yet? No worries. Simply head on over to Ezine Article’s expert authors section:
http://ezinearticles.com/?type=experts. Look at all those articles these authors are publishing! You can simply search for who is republishing their articles and contact that site to offer your unique content.
It gets even better. http://ezinearticles.com/?type=txcat&cat=Internet-and-Businesses-Online:SEO – You can actually go into any category on Ezine articles and see the top authors in that category. So now you can search for who is republishing articles in your niche.
Bonus Tip 2:
When searching for who is republishing articles? Simply search for “The title of the article” in quotes. You can also add in the author name in quotes as well. You will have the best luck with Yahoo usually but try Bing & Google as well.
2) Interlink Your Articles
Once you have a relationship with these site owners and are publishing articles consistently on their sites, be sure you link out to your other articles on different websites. By sending links to your articles from unique sites you make those pages much more powerful and therefore the links they give you more powerful.
3) Use Social Media
Make sure to setup a twitter account for your efforts. You can retweet each of your articles that a webmaster agrees to publish. Because your twitter post will be unique and relevant to your niche you should attract followers with similar interest. This can send traffic and links to the site who post your content. You can use this fact as leverage when trying to get content up. If you can send links and traffic to a site owner plus provide them with unique relevant content who would say no to that?
4) Turn your article into an RSS feed
Use sites like http://feedity.com/ or http://www.feed43.com/ to turn any webpage into an RSS feed. Then ping that RSS feed with http://pingomatic.com/ and submit to directories like http://www.feedagg.com/.
5) Create a podcast and a slideshow from your article
Turn your article into a podcast. Got a microphone handy? Then you can read your article and create a podcast. http://podcastingscout.com/ has some great tips to get started. Once you have a podcast you can submit it to tons of directories as well. As for the Slideshow, I would suggest using http://www.slideshare.net/. It is a fantastic tool, easy to use and could be a subject for later blog post.
6) Make a video from your article
Using free software like http://www.jingproject.com/ you can easily create a nice looking video using the slideshow you created with SlideShare or even PowerPoint .
7) Create an eBook out of your most popular articles.
This will be fairly easy to do as the content is already written and just needs to be repurposed into a 20 to 40 page eBook. You can then give the eBook away free on your site and use it as link bait.
