In order to identify who does article marketing, we must first define what article marketing is. Article Marketing as defined by Wikipedia is “a type of advertising in which businesses write<\/a> short articles<\/a> related to their respective industry. These articles are made available for distribution and publication in the marketplace. Each article contains a bio box and byline that include references and contact information for the author’s business. Well-written content articles released for free distribution have the potential of increasing the authoring business’ credibility within its market as well as attracting new clients.”<\/p>\n

Bloggers<\/a>, Corporations, Individuals, Web Shops, and many others participate in Article Marketing. In order to really go in depth on who does Article Marketing then the answer would be the smart entrepreneur<\/a>. The smart business person understands that you must get your name or product out there to as many people in the demographic (Or outside) as possible.<\/p>\n

We can take a closer look at yahoo.com. Yahoo is prime example of article marketing. There are articles to read about products or news<\/a> clips. When you click the link there are advertising balloons and if you even look closer, the actual article is an advertisement. There is always something to sell.<\/p>\n

Other great examples of Article Marketers are the Vacation Rentals and the Time Share industries. With the Internet they are able to post articles that talk<\/a> about their business and the properties they have for rent or for sale. They can flood numerous websites and blogs<\/a> with links to all their offerings.<\/p>\n

One of the newest rages in the past few years are bloggers. You can use the game World of Warcraft as an example. The video game has a huge fan base because it is basically an evolving virtual world. The game never ends and continues. The fans are very loyal and there are many fan sites out there to help with tips in the game.<\/p>\n

The genius of this is that Blizzard who produces the game gets free advertisement, links to their sight and self promotion from dedicated fans who blog about the game. Think about, instead of spending money on marketing everything themselves, they have their dedicated fan base do it for free. This is an ultimate example of successful Article Marketing.<\/p>\n

Dell is another good example of a corporation who benefits from Article Marketing. Articles talking about Dell computers and hyperlinks to Dellas newest deals can be found all over the Internet. Each and every article represents a great piece of marketing.<\/p>\n

Who is an Article Marketer? Once again the best answer to that question is smart business people. In this day and age, your business is nothing if your name is not well known. Get your name out there on a few well-written articles and just watch your sales grow.<\/p>\n
