Ezine Articles - they're everywhere!

And little wonder. They're one of the fastestways of building traffic to your website.

But what many people overlook is the Resource Box.It's almost as important as your Article. After all,your traffic comes to you through your Resource Box.

Writing your Resource Box is an art in itself. Youhave very little space (5 or 6 lines) and you want tomake the most of it. Here are four key elements yourResource Box should contain.

1) Your Name

Remember, one of the reasons Ezine Articles are such apowerful promotion tool is that brand your name, theyestablish your reputation as a an expert.

So the first line of your Resource Box should be ashort sentence that gives your name and tells thereader what you do on the Internet.

2) Your website URL

This is pretty straightforward - you want people tovisit your website. But there's another reason forincluding your website URL.

As well as being published in Ezines, your Articleswill also be published on websites, often with a livelink to your website URL.

And that's going to do wonders for yourlink-popularity. Remember, the major Search Enginesare making link-popularity one of the key factors inranking their search results.

3) Your Newsletter subscribe address

A given reader may not purchase your product, they maynot even click through to your website, but why not atleast capture their email address?

Remember that the average person has to see yourmessage seven times before they buy your product.

4) Something FREE!

Your Resource Box is probably one of a dozen other Ads in the same Ezine, all clamoring for attention. Offer something free and you'll vastly increase the chancesof a reader clicking through to your website.
