Question: I'm a Virtual Assistant. Can I use articles to promote my business?
Signed, Eager VA
Dear Eager VA,
Virtual Assistants are springing up all around the internet. It's a very viable business option and more work at home moms are jumping on the bandwagon every day. The real go-getters will whip up a 'business card' website right away with their contact information, 'about me' information, and their rates and services offered.
But, then that website sits and collects dust while they wait for the traffic to roll in. So, what's a Virtual Assistant to do to generate traffic to their website?
Oftentimes VAs overlook one of the best methods of marketing their websitesarticle writing. Virtual Assistants can write about all kinds of topicshow to organize emails, customer service, hiring or firing a VA, ways a VA can benefit a business, or accounting among other things. Then, they can share the articles, just like any other website owner to drive traffic to their websites and establish an expert status in their field.
If you're a VA who's new to article sharing, it's actually quite easy. You write a helpful article and include your author bio at the end. (See the end of this article as an example.) Then, you submit your article to Article Directories where hungry website owners, blog owners and ezine publishers eagerly grab your article to publish it on their sites.
Now, there is stiff competition so it's not quite that easy, but that's the gist of how article sharing works. And, you know it works because you're reading my article that I've written and shared with article directories. There's my URL in the author bio and you've found my article because someone has published it on their website, blog or in their newsletter. If it works for me, it can work for you, too.
Article sharing is underutilized in the Virtual Assistant field and I hope to see that change in the coming year. Go grab that free traffic and grow your VA business. Not only will your VA business grow, but you can share this method of marketing with your clients and blow them away with your knowledge of internet marketing. Best wishes. |
