This is the secret of Viral  Markeing which is Free Advertising. If our article is good, it will be displayed  in ezines and websites and the resource box at the end will proclaim who is the  author of that article. Many a reader will click on the link to our website and  we get phenomenal<br \/>amount of traffic!<\/p>\n<p>When writing an article, it is  the Resource box which pulls people to the site. The Resource box must be well  written. I used to write like this<\/p>\n<p>Article by G Kumar, Astrologer &amp;  Epistemologist of http:\/\/<a href=\"http:\/\/www.eastrovedica.com\/\">www.eastrovedica.com\/<\/a> He is a good Viral Marketing  expert &amp; has made his dotcom successful through VM. To subscribe to his Free  ezine, the Z Files, click  here<br \/><a href=\"mailto:info@eastrovedica.com?subject=Subscribe\">mailto:info@eastrovedica.com?subject=Subscribe<br \/><\/a><br \/>You should give  your site&#8217;s name &amp; your email address in the resource box. If you have an  ezine, you should give the email address for subscribing to your ezine. In the  Resource Box, it is better to give a short bio of yourself and your area of  expertise. Those who are impressed by your article will definitely subscribe to  your ezine as they thirst for more quality  information.<\/p>\n<p>Successful marketers never try to sell their  products at the first instance. What they try is to get a free subscription to  their Ezine! It is their sophisticated approach that sells !<\/p>\n<p>The main  principle of Marketing is Never Sell &#8211; Influence. It should not look like  business. If you write an ad, it should not look like an ad.<\/p>\n<p>Once people  subscribe to your ezine via your Resource box, you can give freebies &#8211; free  reports, free ebooks and free consultancy. They become your loyal customers !  They will refer more people to your site and your business will  thrive.<\/p>\n<p>Once the article with the Resource Box is finished, you have to  market it to your target audience.<\/p>\n<p>What I used to do is go to the search  engines and type in &#8220;ezines&#8221; which deal with your subject.<\/p>\n<p>Since I  started writing articles on Astrology, I used to go to Yahoo, Ebay, Altavista  etc and type in Astrology Ezine and search.<\/p>\n<p>This search will give a list  of Astrology Ezines. If your subject is Medicine type Medicine ezine and search.<br \/>Suppose it gives 40 lists. You go to these websites and write down their  email addresses.  Then you write a covering letter to the Zine Publisher and  submit your article to be published by him\/her.<\/p>\n<p>I used to write like  this:<\/p>\n<p>Dear Zine Publisher,<\/p>\n<p>I came to know about your esteemed Zine  from the Net.<\/p>\n<p>I am a writer on Astrology with a website &#8211;  http:\/\/<a href=\"http:\/\/www.eastrovedica.com\/\">www.eastrovedica.com\/<\/a><br \/>I have written an article on Astrology. Please  publish it in your Zine\/Site.<\/p>\n<p>It is a win-win situation for both of us as  you get good content and I get exposure in return.<\/p>\n<p>Thanks and  regards,<\/p>\n<p>G Kumar<br \/>http:\/\/<a href=\"http:\/\/www.eastrovedica.com\/\">www.eastrovedica.com\/<\/a><br \/>You can also submit  your articles to Site Owners. They may display your article on their site. Site  Owners are looking for quality content. If you can provide that, they will  definitely accept your articles.<\/p>\n<p>After writing articles on the subject,  one should group these articles and compile them into an ebook.<\/p>\n<p>After I  wrote nine articles on Astronumerology, I compiled them into an Ebook called  Astronumerology and distributed it free.<\/p>\n<p>Article Banks<br \/>Article Banks  are considered to be Net Marketing Gold. There are a lot out there and it will  be better if you subscribe to them and post your articles regularly.

You can tell siteowners to give  the ebook away to their visitors. This is known as Perpetual Marketing, wherein  many publishers and siteowners market your site free for you!<\/p>\n<p>You can  give the ebook away as an incentive for subscribing to your Ezine. You can give  the ebook away when a customer buys your product, as an added bonus.<\/p>\n<p>You  can tell your friends that you have given them links in your ebook. Inspired,  they will distribute it free amongst their friends, relatives &amp; customers.<br \/>You can post your ebook  here<br \/>http:\/\/writers-bbs.com\/inkspot\/?forum=ebookpromo.<\/p>\n<p>You can submit  your ebooks to Ebook_News@yahoogroups.com<br \/>&amp;  majordomo@exemplary.net<\/p>\n<p>You can give your ebook away as a free download  at your site.

Because of the dynamic &amp; ever changing  nature of the Web, marketing becomes an everyday job. &#8221; Promote or die&#8221; is the  slogan.
