Critical Steps to Online Success - Want More Traffic At Your Website?

You know my thinking on this: If you do nothing else each
day, you must move forward on building your list-it's your
most Critical Step in the marketing chain.

And getting more traffic to your opt-in page is the way to
speed it up.
And by now you know that I believe article marketing is
the best way to make this happen.

Maybe you've tried article marketing, your articles
getting opened, but you're not getting click thrus to your
squeeze page?

Let's see what we can do to fix that…

First the good news: "you're doing something right"; you
must be writing titles that are attracting traffic to your
article or you wouldn't have any readers.

One reason that you aren't getting clicks on your link
might be that the reader isn't getting that far. You could
be losing them in the first couple of paragraphs.

Your first sentence or set of sentences must be almost as
powerful as your title. You can't afford to disappoint your
reader. Tell them what they're going to get from your
article and why this will be a benefit to them.

If you don't do this your reader will feel let down…you
haven't provided what you promised… they'll click away and
look somewhere else.

There's an old army adage that goes like this:

"Tell them what you're going to tell them; tell it to
them; then recap and tell them what you told them."

If you adopt this formula you'll have great success with
your article writing…but remember to keep the recap
short…maybe just one sentence or a short paragraph.

Let's say this is your title:

"Want to take Great Photographs? Is your camera letting
you down? Here's how to test it…"

You might start your article something like this:
______________________________________________________
Are you not very happy with how your photo shots are
coming out lately?

Would you like some help?

I have found that in all endeavors the best tools bring
the best results.

It just might be that your camera is falling down on the
job!

Here's a way to test your camera to find out if it really
is the culprit:

Then quickly you wrap it up:
