If you’re going to engage in a labor intensive strategy like article marketing, it’s important that you maximize that traffic for every penny it’s worth.

Article marketing can be used to drive traffic to your blog, send traffic directly to an affiliate link (although not all directories allow you to do this), direct traffic to your static website or to an adsense site.

But the most effective way to use article marketing is to send that prequalified traffic to a squeeze page or a web page with an opt in form on it.

Think about it for a moment. Considering the amount of time it takes to write an article and submit it, how many of those visitors if they are sent to your blog or static website will actually purchase anything?

Less than 1%. Scary huh?

So why not send that traffic to a web page that will be able to capture their name and email address for future marketing purposes?

Not only is this the most effective way to use article marketing, but it is an effective way to recycle the traffic you’ve worked so hard to get in the first place.

If you’re running a blog or static site (meaning a website that doesn’t have to be constantly updated) you can send short email messages to your subscribers telling them about a new article or tip you’ve written about on your site.

Now here’s the really cool thing that starts to happen when you do this. A compound effect begins to take place as you build your subscriber list and recycle your traffic.

As you continue to ad posts to your blog or pages to your website, the search engines will index them thus sending you additional traffic while you are directing the already existing traffic from your subscribers back to your site at the same time.

Isn’t that awesome?

Now you can direct link to your affiliate link if you want, but if 99% of the traffic that stops by the product your promoting don’t buy, now what?

It becomes like pouring water into a leaking bucket and in this case you’re losing more than you are gaining.

While article marketing is an effective way to drive traffic to your squeeze page you can compound that effect further using multiple traffic sources.
