By far the best way to establish credibility, grow your presence online and command authority in your niche is to publish informative articles.
The more article content you publish on a particular topic, the more you’re likely to come up via web searches on that topic, performed by potential customers.
Tips for Publishing Niche Articles Online
- Start with a main subject and create a list of article titles on that topic.
- Tackle each article in the list, one at a time.
- Follow a simple, web-friendly article writing formula to craft your article content.
- Choose keywords and keyword-phrases commonly used by your ideal customer or target reader.
- Add a short bio and call to action at the end of each article.
What Makes a Web Article Appealing and Engaging?
- The article covers a sought-after topic of interest.
- The article uses simple, clear language that’s easy to understand.
- The article shares useful tips and information.
- The article is well-organized and presents well on website or blog.
- The article shares valuable details and nuggets of good info.
- The article is long enough to develop the topic, but not so long that it’s overwhelming.
- The article is well-researched and may include expert quotes.
Remember that if you feel like you need to explain more about a particular topic in a single article, it’s okay. Web articles are published in sets. You can continue on with explaining and teaching about the topic, in the next article.
Web Articles Should be Re-Purposed for Different Publications and Formats
- Edit them slightly and make them into an e-guide to sell or share.
- Pull one article from the set and share it in your email newsletter.
- Take another article from the bunch to publish in your social media group or on your business page.
- Add a grouping of related articles to a course you’re getting ready to launch.
- Copy and paste a tip or two from one of the articles to make into a graphic and share on social media.
Blog Articles Serve as a Main Driver for SEO Purposes
If you’re looking to attract website visitors who arrived on your site via a specific search phrase or related phrases, articles will be your main traffic driver. Tips to develop a solid strategy:
Research your keywords in advance. Don’t go for the words with the most searches – there’s too much competition. Instead, use a long-tail keyword strategy, and build on related phrases – targeting each one in its own article.
You don’t have to keyword-stuff your articles. But you should definitely slip in those keyword phrases into the following places:
- Your page and post titles
- Your meta descriptions and meta keywords of page headers
- Your H1, H2, H3, H4 headings (etc.)
- Your image alt tags
- Your post tags
- Your keyword links and link titles
- Your social media hashtags when you share the link to the article
Sharing your keyword phrases in those place leaves you some room to be creative when writing the article text. After all, if your article was just a bunch of repeated word strings, no human would stick around to read it.
