There is no argument that article marketing is the most effective type of marketing that you can do to build traffic to your websites, but many of those who want to market with articles don’t know how many articles they need for the efforts to be rewarded.

Many will write and distribute one or two articles, thinking that is enough. In some cases, it may be enough, but it isn’t really enough to build credibility – and by limiting yourself in such a way, you are literally leaving money on the table.

Instead, you need to have an article marketing regimen. You should schedule writing and submission into your schedule on a weekly basis if possible, and on a monthly basis at the very least.

If you do the work yourself, it takes anywhere from a few minutes to an hour to write the article, and it can take about one eight hour day to get it submitted to all of the repositories. If you outsource the work, it takes five minutes of your time to contact your ghost writer, and another five minutes to contact your submission service.

Articles can become very viral, spreading far and wide. building backlinks to your websites and garnering direct traffic through clicks on the links in your Author’s Resource Box. This benefits you and your business, and it stands to reason that the more articles you can produce and submit, the more viral it all becomes. Each and every article that you put out there will be constantly working for you, helping you build website traffic!

If time is a problem, and outsourcing is something that you don’t feel that you can afford, take a few weekends for your article marketing. Write 52 articles, and distribute one each week for an entire year. Sometimes, writing the articles in advance, all at one time, can put your ahead of the article marketing game.

The important thing is that you do get articles out there on a regular basis. Keep your name visible, and continue to send out the articles that will send great benefits back to you by building the most targeted website traffic you can obtain.
