You can easily research the internet or books to find information relating to your niche and you can even research the article directories themselves, just make sure that you never copy anything word for word, and always write your articles in your own words.

When submitting your articles to article directories you will have a resource box at the end of the article where you can write a little information about yourself and also include a link or two back to your product or website.

Before starting your articles you should do some keyword research and find a number of long tail keywords relating to your topic. For example if your niche is on 'dog training' then you will look for long tail keywords like 'dog behaviour training', 'dog obedience training' and 'dog house training'. When writing your articles you can then write one article for each long tail keyword that you have. It is good to have about 30 different keywords to write about.

By doing this you are increasing the number of views your articles will get by targeting these different keyword phrases.

So whether you are promoting your website, blog, affiliate product, or your own product you should see a significant increase in your sales by using Article Marketing.
