Internet Article Marketing - Follow What You Love - Or at Least Find Something that Interests You

Is it possible to write about any topic and then convert those readers into traffic and customers that you get credit for? If I am going to be completely honest, it may not be possible to write about any topic, but you might be surprised how, with a little research, you can develop your interests into real business opportunities.

Have you gotten the, *Make money online bug?* Let me be the first to inform you, this disease is fatal. If you could see my face right now, you would see that I am not smiling. The worst part of this fatal disease is that it is a long and painful death with moments of remission that give you a little hope: but don't be fooled, it is just another way it prolongs the agony. Now I am smiling.

Want to build a business online and not die from this disease. Then focus on what I wrote in the first paragraph. Forget all the hype and the buzz, and think about who you are and what kinds of things you have an interest in. First, make a list of 5 words, or phrases (two to four words) that are unique to your topic of interest. Then, go to a Google search page and type in, *keyword tool.* Click on the first listing, and then in the keyword tool, type in your first keyword.

What you will get is a list of hundreds of keywords that others have done searches on related your original 5 words. Make a list of 30 to 50 that make sense to you, fit the topic, and don't use the ones that are twisted up and don't make sense anymore. After you have made your list, do a search for the words, "article directory." You will find a lot of them. Use your judgment and pick which ones you think are the top 3 or 4. Go to these directory sites, you are looking for the ones that allow you to do searches limited to articles within their site.

Do searches on these directories for articles that have been written on your topic of interest. Click on the links at the bottom of these articles. You will find products and services for sale there. Pick a few that make sense to you and seem to be a logical fit for the subject you are going to start to write articles about. Once you have found some products or services that you think are a fit for you and your topic of interest, then go to those sites and see what it takes to sign up as an affiliate for those companies.

First, read the terms of service for those directories so you submit your articles correctly, and then start writing and submitting articles to your list of 3 or 4 article directory sites. If you have made it this far, now you can look into starting a website or a blog and what it will take to pull the rest of the pieces together. Just remember to stick with article marketing as your primary form of marketing. At least now you are not being tossed to and fro by every hype ad, you are working on building something that really interests you. Believe me, you are way ahead of the crowd at this point.
