There’s no difference with article marketing, which leans on myriad trivials for its success. Make a mistake with any of these, and failure could become your faithful companion.

The Resource Box, another name for the Author Bio, is a key factor. A poor spinning effort, or poor planning of the submission process, can ruin the end result of your efforts. A weak Author Bio is equally likely to lead to failure.

1. Enlighten, Don’t Sell

The main aim of an article is purely to impart information. In this, an article differs from an advertisement, which makes a song-and-dance about a product or service, with the intention of selling it. Article writing achieves a function similar to that of an editorial in a journal. A potential buyer peruses it looking at it from a contrasting viewpoint from that adopted while looking at an advertisement. Delivering information to the reader is the main aim of writing articles, making him or her curious to read the Author Bio.

The Author Bio should tell the reader everything he or she wants to know about the author, and state clearly what way the writer of the article can assist by telling readers all about the niche. The Author Bio acquaints the reader with the author, and includes ter details with respect to the article writer aimed at attracting potential buyers involved in the same niche. The author can leverage the Author Bio to offer useful tips, with the tone resting on soft-selling, and you should explain how you as the author can help a potential buyer.

Most importantly, ascertain that the Author Bio is more than just hype.

2. Don’t use the same anchor text for every directory.

SEs give importance to links, apart from the anchor texts. Assuming that similar anchor texts are used with every version of your article, Search Engines will probably look at your content as part of mass-submission of articles by the article marketer. They would discount these links and choose not to recognize your site. At best, the back-links may not bring you any credits, whatsoever. SEs look for varied anchor texts to enable them to believe that there are natural links. Therefore, you’d better use the anchor text in two or moe variations, apart from unique articles and titles, for directory-submission.

Also, if your intention is to write on different topics for submission, totally change the Author Bio, in each.
