5 Proven and Effective Ezine Article Promotion Methods that Work

You see, most people don't really understand how to BEST use ezine article promotion methods to promote a product or service, or their favorite affiliate program. They know they are supposed to write an article, include some kind of clever offer in the text or in their resource box, and convince editors to publish their article. But, there is a very clever way to use your article to promote a product like you've never seen before.

And I'm going to share it with you right now. There are only five steps. And they are all super simple...

Step 1: Choose the product or service you want to use for your article promotion.

This one is kind of a no-brainer. We're not talking about your newsletter -- we're talking about an actual offer you want to present that you'll earn profits from when readers of your article make a purchase. Decide what it is that you want to promote through your free ezine article promotion and then move on.

Step 2: Determine your "useful, but incomplete" approach.

Provide your reader with "useful" information (something they find of value and are able to actually apply) but make certain that it is "incomplete" in that they can better use the information by making a purchase.

That's "useful, but incomplete." And it works like a charm.

The idea is to use your content to build up to your desired response. Your goal is to promote a product or service, so provide the reader with content and then make an offer that allows them to fully utilize the content, gain extra insight from the content or maximize the content in some additional way.

Step 3: Turn your approach into a tips list or tutorial.

That's all you need to do. Determine your end result. Decide how to get there with your "useful, but incomplete" approach. And then develop a list, or even a step-by-step tutorial for your article that leads the reader along.

With each new "idea" or "way" or "tip" or "step" or "strategy" that you share, you can further direct the reader towards realizing their need of your upcoming offer, and lay the foundation for them to accept the offer.

Step 4: Expand on each point to build your content.

Here's more of the easy part. Just "fill-in-the-blanks" to complete your article.

Write 1-2 short paragraphs for each of your points. Make them good. Provide quality content. If the information you provide in trying to promote a product isn't useful, you will see poor results.

Remember, your article promotion is to presell the reader on the idea that they are going to need the product you're promoting.

Step 5: Put on the finishing touches on your article with the "five pillars."

There are five things that you should always do to finish up your ezine article. Don't skip any of them. They are all critical...

Re-read your article, use your resource box to promote your product or offer, have a trusted friend, relative or co-worker check your article for grammatical and typographical errors, zip your new article out to your favorite list of publishers. If you've covered all the bases that I've mentioned, then profits are almost certain to start coming in since you now know how to correctly promote a product with ezine articles. Be proud of your article promotion accomplishments. You deserve it.
