5 Steps To Article Marketing For Profit

As an Internet Marketer I have been able to make free cash online simply by writing articles about things I'm interested in and publishing them on the free article directories.

It's a simple process really. Here are the 5 steps that I use which I'm going to discuss in detail below:

1- Think of a product or service that you are interested in

2- Find a website that sells this product or service which also offers an Affiliate Program

3- Sign up as an affiliate for that website

4- Write articles about the topic of interest and publish them on one of the many free article directories

5- Get Paid!

How does this work:

The easiest way to write an article is to write about something that interests you. For example, I like to play the guitar. I've been playing for years and it's a hobby as well as a passion for me. Therefore, I could talk about guitars for hours. I could write articles about different guitars, acoustic, electric, classical, guitar tuning, guitar strings, guitar lessons, etc. I could go on-and-on. These are all great topics for new articles that I could easily write without even putting much thought into it.

Now I search for websites about guitars (there are quite literally 100's of thousands of them). I'm looking for sites with affiliate programs so I could try "guitar affiliate programs". I just searched that on Google and got 363,000 results. Wow, maybe I should promote some guitar products? Ya think?

It is simple, and free, to sign up as an affiliate with the website of your choice. Once you find a website you like and sign up they will give you your very own unique "Affiliate Link Code". You will put this code into articles that you publish on the article directories (sometimes in the Author Bio).

Article Directories are websites where you can publish your articles for free. Once your articles (with their embedded link codes) are published they can be found by the browsers (Google, Bing, Yahoo, etc.). People who are searching for "guitar picks" may find and read my article about guitar picks and then click on my affiliate link which takes them to the website where they can buy some cool guitar picks.

Here's the best part. When someone uses my affiliate link to buy something from a website, I Get Paid! This is how article marketing for profit works.
