Website Traffic - How to Get a Flood of Traffic From One Article

Article marketing should be an important part of any website owner's traffic strategy. Some of the highest traffic website are article directories and because every website needs content, you one single article can potentially be read and seen on dozens of websites. With article syndication and a lot of RRS feeds plugging into other websites it makes perfect sense to use articles to drive traffic to your website.

Although its great to publish your articles on article directories, it probably won't get you the flood of traffic that you really need to have a sustainable online business. So, here are some ideas on how to get more out of your articles.

- The first thing you can do is to take your article and urn it into a video. this is not a big deal. Just extract 5 or 6 bullet point and put it in a PowerPoint slide show and talk over it. You can easily make a 500 word article into an interesting 5 minute video. You can then distribute the video in YouTube, Viddler and all the other video directories.

- To get even more out of your video, you can extract the audio from it and turn it into an mp3. As an mp3 file you can now distribute it to PodCast directories and you can even exchange it with other webmasters.

- The next step is to take the slide show you used and publish it to sites like SlideShare.

- Going back to your article, you can use MS Word and turn it into a PDF. Try and add some more content like a few images and maybe a cover page with your title (make sure the title is interesting). Then, upload it to PDF directories DocStock and Scibd.

So, there are just a few ideas. Always remember to "brand" your articles and video with your website URL and keep proper SEO principles in tact with keywords and titles. Most of the directories and sites rank very well in search engines and this will help your work to get picked up and ranked. By spreading your reach across a variety of sites and media you amplify your reach exponentially.
