Using Articles and Autoresponders Together
Using Articles and Autoresponders Together
Here’s a way to promote all your niche articles besides submitting them to directories one by one.
Writing articles to market a product or service is an excellent way to build any business. The articles, of course, should be very informative, providing the reader with information that is relevant to a specific topic. Your article resource box usually includes a link to a website or blog for more information. The website, of course, is designed to sell a product or service that relates to the topic of the article.
Articles are commonly submitted to article directories, websites, and ezine publishers. This is one of the most effective ways to market a service or product on the Internet, and get this…it can become even more effective when it is combined with the use of an autoresponder.
Here’s what to do. Take all of your articles for your one specific topic and start to set them up into an autoresponder. Each different niche or topic should definitely have it’s own autoresponder address so you will need an autoresponder service that allows you unlimited autoresponders. Make sure you have a master list of your articles per topic and the autoresponder address/form code for each topic one you have set up. Add descriptions of the articles on your master list also.
Now, we all know advertising your articles one at a time can take a great deal of time, but advertising one autoresponder address – the one for the master list of a specific topic – won’t take very much time at all. Simply put your autoresponder topic’s form code in a newsletter, and on your website or blog. That way when someone signs up to receive an informational article, not only will they get to read one, but having set up your autoresponder, they will continue to receive your other articles related to the specific topic. Make sure you have an excellent resource box set up at the end of your articles, pointing your subscribers to your site, service or product.
When submitting your articles to directories, you can even put a link to the autoresponder address or squeeze page where article readers can sign up to receive more articles, into your resource box.
If you don’t have an autoresponder service yet, there are a few decent ones out there, Aweber, GetResponse, etc… I would recommend checking out, TrafficWave.net. The quality of their service is excellent and you can’t beat the pricing, especially when you see all that they provide for one low fee. If you have any questions, as always, feel free to contact me!

That’s pretty clever Brenda. So it’s like setting up an e-course without the lessons. That’s a great was to cross promote articles while building a list. I use AWeber and they allow us to automatically subscribe people to multiple lists. So if they subscribe for more articles they could be sent to a master list as well. They can always unsubscribe to one or both but this allows us to send important emails to multiple lists.
I like the idea of readers going to a subscription page from the article’s resource box. Especially if you’re allowing re-print rights – that would be great for speeding up those back links too.
Good post, thanks.
Exactly Brian!! Thanks for reading!
