Free Network Marketing Leads With Articles
When people delve into online MLM, frequently the first thing they are looking to do is generate free network marketing leads. But what are the most effective ways vs. ones that are all hype?
There are tons of techniqes that supposed “gurus” spout out and some of them are very effective at getting free network marketing leads. Things like video marketing, social media marketing, forum marketing are all effective.
However, one method of getting free network marketing leads that has been around for years, and is still extremely effective is article marketing. Especially when combined with other techniqes that we talked about above. Here is a real life example of this in action.
One great way that article marketing to get free network marketing leads is to include links in your resource box to your own website. You can have these links lead to your main marketing website, lead capture page, or to your blog, and this is an awesome way to get backlinks to your websites.
Furthermore, webmasters frequently visit article directories and will borrow your content in whole for re-publishing on their website. That is actually the real purpose behind websites like that. However, when they do grab your content, they are required to take your resource box along with them, and your links go with that article as well, which helps even further in your attempt to get free network marketing leads.
As your links propogate around the internet in this manner, this generates something known as backlinks to your website, making your content appear more relevant in the search engines, again, helping you get even more people to your website for free network marketing leads.
One interesting twist I saw the other day with this involves the combination of article marketing and social media to get free network marketing leads. A webmaster had gone onto an article directory and grabbed one of my articles. Then I happened to be on twitter and this same webmaster was making tweets about the the article of mine he had used, all with my backlinks to my own content. Imagine that, someone else marketing your content on a social media website, getting traffic and leads to your own content on article directories.
That is the power of using articles to get free network marketing leads today. The combination of several different mediums, and even other people to help propogate your content all over the internet.
So here is what you need to do with this technique to get maximum benefit from it. Its always best to get traffic back to your website, so publish your content first on your website. Next, write a slightly different version of it and publish it on a few major article directories. Those can get picked up by other webmasters, and bammo, free targeted traffic and advertising for your website.

Why do I have a mentor and coach?
EVERY Olympic athlete has a coach. The top ones hire their own personal coach.
I’ve had my own mentor-coach in network marketing since 1991. One person actually once told me he thought it was a weakness for “people like you to admit that you need a coach to help you.”
A weakness???
I replied that having a coach was (and is) one of the smartest things I have ever done.
A coach keeps you accountable and focused. There are just soooooo many opportunities in life to get sidetracked.
Pro athletes like Tiger Woods, Bobby Bonds, Peyton Manning, all the big stars, have several coaches. Each coach teaches their own specialty.

Hey Tania,
Great to see you as well. Thanks for the feedback on the blog. Synnd is an excellent resource and I thought I saw you on there as well!
How are things with your business?

Wow, thanks for the great free information. After reading this I immedietly went to artical base and submitted some articles. Thank you so much for helping me out.
There are numerous techniques for e-zine marketing such as: Adding an expert author banner to your website or blog. I did just that not long ago and I noted the number of e-zine articles read in a 3 month period and the number of articles published by webmasters.
After adding the banner my articles ( in a fifteen day period) were read 261 times and 15 articles were published. That was over a 50% increase in readership just by adding the banner.
The lesson here is don’t rely on the article directories alone. Market your e-zine articles just like any other material and link to your articles as well. Either individually as to add value to your content or even as I did to your author profile or profiles.
Its true, marketing your ezinearticles just like any other piece of content will greatly increase the amount of circulation and visibility it gets. Keep after it James!
Kurt,
I appreciate this article and others in this blog that emphasize the importance of branding yourself with content in the form of articles that actually provide information that readers and publishers are interested in reading and circulating.
Articles are a link in the chain of strategy for Internet marketing and you have made some very good points here.
Pat,
Thanks there. Yes article marketing is one link in the chain of building your business online, and one I recommend people start with as it really trains them on how to do proper keyword research and figure out some of the metrics in their business before they go onto other paid marketing strategies.
To your future success,
Kurt

Article marketing can be very powerful, and now combined with the power of social media, is even more so.
Article marketing in its purest sense is about creating content in quantity and distributing it out to various major directories and getting direct traffic…..extremely powerful concept.
