On last Friday, I have sent you an email with a step-by-step
guide on how to effectively use article marketing.

I have received many emails from some of you asking how
exactly do we know if we are focusing on the right keywords.

Keyword research:
=================

Find a profitable topic…one good resources is http://www.amazon.com/
and also http://www.google.com/trends

Your keyword research should have these 2 basic criteria:

1. more than 300 searches per month

=> https://adwords.google.com/select/KeywordToolExternal

2. less than 20,000 competing sites when you do a google search in quotes.

=> use http://www.google.com/ and remember to put in quotes eg: “keyword”

Choose a long tail keyword and use it for your domain name.
keywordtips.com, howtokeyword.com, allaboutkeyword.com

*Remember you domain MUST have the long tail keyword in it.

* * *

With every article you have submitted to article directories like
ezinearticles.com, you must hyperlink the same keyword back to your
blog.

This is how I did it

Keep on repeating for all the keywords you want to dominate in
Google.

There are plenty of article directories out there such as

- ArticleDashboard.com
- SearchWarp.com
- GoArticles.com
- IdeaMarketers.com
- AmaZines.com
- ArticleAlley.com
- ArticleCity.com
- ArticleCube.com
- ArticleSet.com
- ArticleTrader.com
- ArticlesBase.com
- EasyArticles.com
- uPublish.info
- ArticleSphere.com
- ArticleSnatch.com
- ArticleCodex.com
- ArticlesFactory.com

Have a good weekend!

Cheers,
John
