 by: Douglas Titchmarsh

How do I know that writing and submitting articles works?

I have placed a tracking link in one of my articles, and seen the hits from that link increasing as the article circulates.

If you want to take advantage of traffic from articles you write and submit, then the following few tips may help to make it easier and more effective for you.

1. Just go for it, don't be overly fussy, write an article, read it and check for spelling mistakes and then submit it. People get too wrapped up in spelling, grammar etc. and never get round to doing it.

5. Stuck for ideas? My own personal ideas for articles come from what goes on around me. I spot something which sets me thinking, and I make some notes as the ideas flow. Later I fill out the notes with details, and follow on with any new ideas I get. Others write a review of a product, or servive

I hope these few tips will get you started or help you to improve your use of articles as a promotional tool. I can assure you it works, I tracked my article link after all.
