Submitting Articles To Newsletters & Websites
By James

Submitting articles to newsletters and websites is an
extremely powerful method of promotion. To do this you
will need articles with your name as the author. Can you
write? Good; get to it. You need to write one 500 word
article on the topic of your site every week.
Can't write? No problem. Do you have $250 to spend to
have 15 articles ghost written for you? That's only $16
per article and will get you by for the next 15 weeks
(almost 4 months). If so, Elance is your answer:

Place a project up for bid asking for 15 ghostwritten
articles on the topic of your site. You can suggest the
titles of the articles if you want. Dozens of people
WILL place bids (they always do) and 3 or 4 will bid the
minimum which is $250 in that category. Choose from the
best by looking at their credentials and sample work
(most bidders will be happy to show you samples). Great;
now you own 15 articles that you can legitimately put
your name on... Or you can use a pseudonym (a pen name).
OK; so you have either written some articles or you have
had them ghostwritten for you. Now you just add a small
three line bio at the end of your article. It can say
something like this:
John Smith is the webmaster for http://yourdomain.com
which is the #1 resource for widgets on the Internet. Be
sure to visit his complete archive of articles here:
http://www.yourdomain.com/articles/
Of course you will want to put your name where John
Smith is in the above byline and your domain... and your
topic instead of "widgets". But you get the idea. This
byline will be printed with your article. It has become
a custom on the Internet. You really don't even have to
demand that webmasters and ezine publishers include it.
They just will.
Now, you need to submit them to as many newsletters as
you can every week. Send one new article like clockwork
to your entire list of newsletters on the same day of
the week every single week.
How do you get a list of newsletters?
First, put a form on your site for ezine editors or
webmasters to request article submissions. You will
eventually start getting 5 or 10 submissions every week
to add to your list.
Here are some ways to get your list going right away:
Pay $10 to get your article distributed to thousands of
ezines right now:
http://thephantomwriters.com/purchase/distribution.shtml
You will receive confirmations from ezines that have
published your articles. Add those ezines to your own
distribution list.
Want even more?
Pay $20/article (in quantity) to submit to 500 highly
responsive ezines here:

Once again, be sure to add the confirmations you receive
to your own list. You eventually want to stop submitting
through pay services and submit only to your own list
(which is free).
Buy a list of 1200 newsletter editors for $47 here:

Remember that the real goal is to build up your own
list.
This is a VERY powerful method of promotion. I highly
recommend it.
