Content & Writing Tycoon

Does the content of the article matter?

I'm starting to do some article marketing.

My signature and the text surrounding it is relevant but the article isn't.

For example, the article body is about pets (easy to write and talk about) but the Sig points to my web design services ect...

So large signature with text and anchor but irrelevant article body.

Does having a large descriptive signature suffice to have it act as a small "article" in itself?

Does it REALLY matter if the article is not related to my services or is it just a myth?

I think your gonna have a problem that one. Since the two are COMPLETELY different. If your article body was about HTML you might have a chance. However, if it's about cats I would seriously doubt it.

Nope You can write about absolutely anything you want!

And "articles" are NOTHING to do with SEO.

Article Marketing is one of the best methods to drive traffic to your webpage with minimal or no cost. It is a method that can still reap you returns many years down the road as long as your article exists online and is being searched for and read.

There is no perfect way of writing an article as it is more of an art but there are areas where it is skill-related, which means you can learn to improve yourself.

Your reader will be checking for your expertise in this area, so it is important be accurate, authentic and professional, to provide good quality information and establish your reputation with the reader.

like what u said a lot , you think this is okay ? this looks so weird , is it ? and how did you do that , why wrtie the same topics ? don't write something only for the search engine .

I guess the main question is why? Why not make your articles about website design and have the content similar to what you are promoting at the end of it?

Relevancy is important and worthy. I observed many sites that are writing articles to get potential traffic for their site.

So, I strongly recommend relevance contents/articles. For better results, you can publish them in most popular article/technology sites.

You wrote those articles to drive traffic, think about it, a man looks for pets stuff found your article, just out of curiosity he clicks on the link and direct to your design website, then what? What will he do? Drop his pets question and start appreciating your design work? Really?

It's not an effective way of article marketing. The two important things must be parallel to each other. They must be the same. You are loosing your reputation in article readers and in Search engines.

The link should have value since you are controlling the anchor text. But if the link is related to your article you may get some actual traffic from it.

If I leave a quality comment on a related blog, the blogger will often come check out my site as well. I'll also start getting some traffic even if I'm not ranked in the SE's yet.
