Article Marketing has become a really great way to get some inbound links. Like any other though, I expect the value to wane after a while as the masses begin to spam this very valuable resource. It amounts to writing something about your subject and adding an authors bio box at the end of the article. 500 word articles go over very well, and this really isn’t a huge undertaking for anyone. The bio box will contain one or two links back to your site, using whatever keywords you like. On... Read Full Story
