Viral Marketing Riches – 2nd Edition
Alternative Number One:
You can go to sites like GoArticles or Idea
Marketers. They are known as article directories and provide a service that matches articles with webmasters who need them. The articles are free but you are required to link your site to the author’s site. So….free isn’t exactly free. Here you are trying to establish yourself as a knowledgeable expert in the niche market and, by linking to the author’s website; you are really establishing him as the expert. You are providing this competing guru with the ultimate marketing tool and sending your potential customers to him. Duh!
Alternative Number Two: Running articles on your website that you can claim as your own seems to be a much better idea. “OK,” you say, “but I still can’t write them.” You want articles ghostwritten for you and the way to obtain them is to go to article brokers. Using your favorite search engine (like Google), type in “Niche Article Brokers” and you will get a lot of hits. These companies deal with private label articles. It is content that you can claim as your own because all rights to the article have been sold by the author. Now, instead of advertising someone else as the expert, you’ve just shown your customers that you, yourself, are the knowledgeable one.
