But 5 years of coaching and teaching them, begging them, yelling at them (not really), scolding them, etc. and hardly anyone is willing to write more than about 1 per week on average. And in a vacuum, meaning, just using articles, one a week won't cut it. Sure, one a week might be fine if you also used your Facebook account and wrote an article there, and you wrote a blog post for a blog in your niche, and you wrote for an industry newspaper site, etc. But most people won't do it.
So, sure, article marketing works. Just as well as it ever did. The top authors of this directory can attest to that. But they are top authors, not people who Asia Email List are only willing to write 1 article a week and cross their fingers. Crossing fingers doesn't a business build.So I have simply decided that instead of continuing to beat my head against the wall trying to get people to write more articles, I am showing them an easier way to get the same results. And that is by being well rounded.
Write articles for your favorite and well-ranked article directory. Write a well-orchestrated Facebook post that leads to your articles. Put articles on your own site. Put blog posts on your own site and tell your friends and Facebook friends and twitter tweeters about it, and write blog posts for other sites, and become a well-respected expert in your niche. For most people that is easier than writing 10 articles a day.
