Previously, Ezine was much more effective than it currently is, and thousands of people can vouch for this. People used to submit their articles to Ezine and within a short period of time it would go up in the search engines like you couldn’t below. Even for popular keywords like Finance and Politics, it was not hard to get up in the rankings with Ezine. As well all know, the internet has grown larger, and because of this there is much more competition than before.
Contrary to what was mentioned above, Ezine is still a great resource. Many, many people use Ezine (which is a method of article marketing) to help their businesses prosper. As the years go on, people become better at this, and find ways other than just writing an article for Ezine to help their business out. People now promote much more effectively, and use search engine techniques to do so. For those who are experience and actually know what they are doing, success is nothing big and comes to them regularly. Though, with this, it makes it much harder for those less knowledgeable individuals to get up there. If you are one of those people, no worries. There are ways to be just as successful with article marketing as the people who you only dream of being like.
One of the best methods that you can use is to have links coming to your Ezine page from popular article directories. Some popular article directories include Buzzle and Go Article. There are many more, but these are just two that come to mind. This is probably the easiest and most effective way to get more links coming to your Ezine article. The more you do this, the more incoming links you will have to your Ezine article.
Aside from the method above, using social networking sites to gain incoming links is very common. Article marketers use this method everyday to also gain incoming links (just like submitting to other directories). This will greatly shoot your webpage up in search engines such as Google, Yahoo, etc… You will have to look around at different social networking websites, because some do not allow you to refer (leave links) that go to Ezine. If you are busy, you can often outsource this work to be done for you.
Lastly, Ezine articles all have a RSS feed. Copy it and enter it in RSS directories. This will get you a decent number of backlines, resulting in decent amount traffic. This method is quite easy, but obviously not as effective as the other two above. Nonetheless, it is easy, and is worth doing quickly.
The three methods mentioned above are probably the most common and simple to gain more links for your Ezine article. With more links, you will increase your chance of being ranked higher, getting you more traffic. If you are not sure of which article directories or social networking sites to use, do a quick Google search and you should find some useful stuff.
