Mix Up Your Content to Drive More Traffic
Utilizing the kind of content that can be obtained on
free-reprint article directories is a good method of adding a
wider range of search keywords to your website. By increasing
the range of keywords on your website, you will find more of
your own links in the search results of the major spider
search engines.
A few of the *free-reprint article directories* I am referencing
include:

- http://www.LyonsInternational.com/
- http://www.MarketingSeek.com/
- http://www.EbooksnBytes.com/
- http://www.Family-Content.com/
- http://www.Zongoo.com/
In truth, there are thousands of websites using these articles,
to build the traffic they derive from the spider search engines.
As one of the people who owns such a directory, I have noticed
in my tracking logs that interesting keyword combinations can
be achieved by mixing the actual content on your article pages.
Here is the deal.
Each article published may be found on dozens of websites. So,
even articles that I have written or distributed might be found
on other domains in the search results ahead of my own domain
pages. But, when I mix content on the page, I can get ahold of
keyword phrases that I would not be able to acquire by using
the article alone.
An example is that my name appears on every page of my domain
in the footer information. My name is *Bill.* Appearing on a
few of the article pages in my article directory is the words
*sell* or *sale.* I always find it interesting to see how many
people reach my site by using the keyword phrases *bill of
sell* or *bill of sale.*
As a result of these keyword phrases, I manage to generate
a substantial amount of traffic from people seeking a physical
copy of a *bill of sale.*
One more twist on this example is the idea that I could increase
my traffic another notch by including a real *bill of sale* on
my website that people can actually download and use. Not only
could I capture this actual traffic, but also the people who
came to my site from the search engines would be thrilled at
having found a printable *bill of sale.* Heck, they might even
bookmark my website as a resource and link to my site as an
additional web resource.
