Making Money - Online Business Opportunity

I’m sure you’ve read the phrase “content is king” but I’ll say it to you again. CONTENT IS KING! Good quality content drives traffic and return visitors and ultimately sales. This is the main reason why serious internet marketers spend time writing fresh articles. Some even go as far as hiring writers.

But how do you write an article that sells?

To help you with that, here are three things that you should always remember.

1. Use an interesting title
2. Write with your readers in mind
3. Make full use of the author’s bio

Use an Interesting Title

The title of your article determines whether it will be read or ignored by potential readers. A boring title is less likely you to be read than one that is written in a unique and interesting way. Here’s a quick example:

Bad Title: Discover How To Write Articles Properly
Good Title: How to Write Articles That Sell

The first one sounds too academic while the second one somehow satisfies a desire, in this case making money.

Write With Your Reader in Mind

Many writers love to brag about themselves but we all know that people don’t want to listen to braggers. Stop talking about how good your product or service is. Rather, write about stuff that will actually satisfy your readers need quickly. Instead of talking about the features of your product, talk instead of how to use your product to solve your readers problem.

Always keep in mind that people read your article because they think it will help them solve their problem. So go ahead and solve their problems and save the sales pitch for last.

Make Full Use of the Author’s Bio

Article directories often won’t allow you to put links in the body of your article. They however will allow you to put links in your bio so make full use of that. The author’s bio is the place where you make your 2-sentence sales pitch. It is here where you entice your reader to click the link to your website. It is here where you tell them that the solution (or a quicker solution) to their problem is just a click away.

Instead of putting in your achievements, put in your call-to-action instead.

I took the bait and I don’t regret it! I’ve known about Squidoo for quite a while already and during this time I realized that I can make more money from Squidoo than I ever knew. Aside from the fact that Squidoo does share its income to its members, Squidoo also allows you to sell your own products in it. The best part though is that Squidoo lenses grow in value and just like domain names, Squidoo lenses have the potential of being valued in the hundreds of dollars. Perhaps even thousands.

After learning about these income potential, I decided to buy an eBook on how to “flip” Squidoo lenses. By “flip”, the author meant to sell it. The eBook is cheap (only $19.00) and it’s one of the best and cheapest investments I’ve ever made online (Do yourself a favor and buy it). After reading the eBook, I immediately took action and started making lenses. My SEO experience helped a lot so I knew that making search engine optimized lenses will be easy for me.

I created four lenses and bought a domain name so I can create my own website where I can showcase my lenses. Check it out at MySquidooEmpire.Com. As an introductory sale, I’m selling my lenses at 50% off so don’t waste your time. I’ll be pushing this website really hard by next week so I suggest that you grab this great deal before people start rushing in.

Fresh lenses (meaning newly created ones) sell for $150 but they do grow in value immediately. I will be changing the prices on the MySquidooEmpire.Com regularly based on how much traffic and how much income my Squidoo lenses are generating. Before that happens, I want you to check them out and grab this really great deal. I’ll give it to you for only $75 instead of the normal $150.
