10 Great Reasons to Submit Articles to Online Magazines

A lot of people say, "It's just too hard to write my own articles!" or "I don't know what to write about", and immediately discount the idea of authoring articles and submitting them online. Well you know what, if you have a BLOG, you are already writing articles for the public. :-) Why not take it a step further?

AlphaOne Technology Web Hosting is happy to present you this article by Scott Geld that gives you 10 great reasons to take that step and submit your writings to online magazines:


1. You, your website, and your business will become well
known for the articles you provide to e-zines.

2. You will be considered a specialist on the subject of
the articles you write. This will allow your business to achieve status that you can leverage against your competitors.

3. The e-zine publisher may potentially position your
article on their home page. If each issue is published on
their home page you can gain even more exposure.

4. You might get extra exposure if the e-zine publisher archives their e-zine on their site. People might want to read the back issues before they make the decision to subscribe.

5. You will acquire complimentary advertising. You can use
the money you save to advertise your business using other methods. You could, for example, buy ad space in e-zines that don't accept your article submissions.

6. You might get extra income from people wanting to
hire you to write other articles, books, or even ask to
speak at seminars. This is a great way to multiply your
income.

7. You could give e-zine publishers permission to place
your articles in their complimentary e-books. Because
people often pass these books to other people they know,
your ads could be broadcasted throughout the Internet.

8. Submitting your articles to e-zine publishers that
maintain a directory of free content on their website will result in your article gaining exposure across the Web. The publishers will give visitors permission to publish the articles again.

9. People will have more confidence in you. If they read
your article and have a favorable opinion about it, they
are more likely to purchase your product or service. You
can then realize more money.

10. You could establish an agreement with an e-zine where
they would promise to publish your article. You could offer
to place an article of theirs in your e-zine and they could place yours in theirs. Both of you win in this situation.
