SEO Articles And Web Marketing: Use The Power Of Focus

It is highly unlikely that your do-it-yourself SEO articles and web marketing will be successful without the power of focus.

In this life people become highly successful by focusing with laser beam precision on something very particular. Bruce Willis was just another struggling actor until he found his niche (remember the Die Hard series of films?) and then focused on it with laser beam precision.

The rays of the sun fall harmlessly (mostly) on the planet until somebody gets a magnifying glass and focuses a few of those rays on a particular precise point and it is enough to start a bush fire of colossal proportions. By the way that is the biggest secret of success anybody will ever teach you.

What you must do to succeed in life is to focus on a very particular niche and the smaller that niche, the better. And this should be clearly reflected in your SEO articles and web marketing. You need to cut the clutter and focus on one keyword phrase that describes your web site or blog perfectly and completely. Don’t panic and wonder what you will do with a single keyword phrase, I can assure you that whatever keyword you come up with, it will have dozens of synonyms and related keyword phrases to keep you busy for years. And even if you are super fast and are done in 5 years, I can bet you that there will be more new keyword phrases that will have emerged by that time that will be directly related to your niche keyword.

In other words, get this truth firmly into your mind; one keyword phrase is enough to last you more than a lifetime.

You should have known by now that the web is such a huge place that you will quickly drown and be lost forever if you are not focused on a niche that you can control and dominate completely. Being general on the web like most people try to do is just plain suicide.

So here is the list of things you must do with your SEO articles and web marketing to ensure focus and ultimately success.

Focus Your Web Marketing And SEO Articles By Selecting The Niche You Are Best Placed To Shine In
This should not be done hurriedly, although there are cases where your gut feeling will already be screaming at you about a particular niche. Just remember that whatever you choose, you’ll have to be the best in the world or at least in the top 10 (so that you are sure that you will appear on the first page of search engine results for your keyword).

This is something you can’t fake because no matter how cleverly your do your marketing or disguise things, your SEO articles and your web site will tell visitors immediately whether you know your stuff or not.

Life will be a lot easier if you can get somebody to write your SEO article headlines for you.

SEO Article Submission Strategy That Pulls Em In Like A Magnet

Using special software for SEO article submission is a mistake, as far as I am concerned. To start with, because of the sudden and unnatural growth of back links that will result from this kind of submission, leading search engines are highly likely to penalize you. Secondly I find it difficult to locate any other word to describe automated submission other than that dreaded dirty four letter “S” word; SPAM.

There is another much better way to accumulate tens of thousands of back links and there is no software involved. It is manual SEO article submission and it should not take you more than 10 minutes to finish all the posting you will ever need to do for a promotional article.

Usually I post my SEO articles to only three article directories and then I sit back and let the viral effect take over. The first article directory I post to has the highest traffic out of all directories on the web and many of the folks who come calling here are looking for quality content for their ezines or email newsletters as well as their web sites. The reason why I post to the second one is because of its’ amazingly large syndication program where all articles are fed through its’ syndication network thus giving them a lot of extra exposure. The third directory’s strength is the speed at which other sites link to articles posted in this particular directory.

For my SEO article submission strategy to work, the first thing is that the article needs to be as interesting and useful as possible. This is what some people call a “link bait article.”

When I have an exceptionally good SEO article, I will give it extra publicity by linking to it from one of those high traffic social networking sites like Digg.com. This has two highly desirable outcomes. Firstly I get a link pointing at my site from a very high page rank site (social networking sites usually have very high page ranks). Over time this helps dramatically improve my sites’ Google Page Rank (PR) and therefore my traffic from search engines for the keywords I use. Secondly depending on how you present it, it is possible for your posting at a social networking site to get the kind of attention that can result in huge direct traffic for your article and site.

It is no exaggeration that the ideal SEO article submission will result in tons of traffic.
