I don’t know about you, but I’m a die hard when it comes to my business. Not only that I finally truly enjoy what I do, but I’m beginning to see myself for what I truly am – an internet addict.

This business I have created is my dream come true undoubtedly, but I still day in and day out find myself literally and voluntarily glued to my computer from 27 seconds after I wake up to the last 27 seconds before I hit the bedroom (…OK, on the days I actually work..)

You guessed it, that’s how long it takes me to walk up/down the stairs while half-asleep.

For months I’ve found myself in a position that once I’m downstairs and away from the computer for a few minutes I’m scrounging for paper and pen all over the house so I could write down this next awesome idea that just popped in my head.

One thing is for sure: article marketing works – if done right.

Articles are truly a heart of organic placements and will be generating traffic for a long time.

Internet marketing evolves and changes daily so do the rules of the game. In order to get the most out of your article marketing strategies, here are few tips to bear in mind.

When a good keyword is just NOT enough

1)      There was a point in time when the best rule for writing marketing articles was to come up with one good keyword and write your content around it.

Those days are gone.

Today, for articles to be picked up and liked by search engines need to include a handful of related keywords, i.e. Mercedes Benz parts, Mercedes Benz accessories, Mercedes Benz aftermarket parts…etc…

When duplicate content is OK

2)      More and more article directories
