The online environment has different requirements from printed publications, no matter if we’re talking about a printed magazine or journal. The visibility and recognition of an article is the key to a successful business. Implementing an effective article marketing strategy is vital, as the search engines will index only complete information and optimized content.

In order to achieve a quality market valuation, an article should accomplish several requirements. It must be informative, accurate, concise, and relevant and SEO optimized. Another feature that should be considered is the originality of the article. The search engines will not index articles with too similar content or identical content. The design and accessibility have also a major role for the usability of a website, associating visual images to the desired text message.

“Content is king” and “Content is everything” are two common expressions used by SEO experts who develop software, when they refer to the content’s function as a marketing tool. Let’s start by focusing on each of the following features of a quality article:

Keyword density; there is no magic formula for the optimal density of keywords. There are a few general rules that must be taken into consideration when you decide how many keywords your article needs. Use keywords in page titles, bold text, link maps, in order to get a higher and more relevant position in search engines. Keywords play a vital role in any process of optimization for search engines. The visitors will find you through keywords. Through searches in search engines, people are guided to your content. Take care of your keywords, which you have found by doing careful keyword research, and they will care of you.

Keywords density represents the number of keywords divided to a web page total number of words. If your article has 500 words and 10 keywords, then your article has a keyword density of 2%. An appropriate density of keywords is between 3%-5%. A too large number of keywords is worse then the total lack of keywords; on the other hand, a smaller number won’t have a significant impact on search engines.

Quality content; when it comes about implementing an article marketing strategy, we should focus on attracting dedicated visitors and potential subscribers. If the content is impressive, people will return again and again to find more information. Moreover, high quality content promotes effectively the products, no matter if we’re talking about services or goods.

A simple and clear language; it’s important to provide accessible content for your visitors, in order not to mislead them. Keep in mind that it’s 25% more difficult to read an online text than a printed one. Therefore, each paragraph should focus on one message, without creating confusion. The idea is to make people understand the message from the first lines. That’s why, it’s recommended to mention the conclusion in the first two paragraphs.

Relevant content; many webmasters provide gobs of information that has nothing to do with the main idea promoted by the website. Some consider that by providing indirectly related details, the website will achieve a higher rank in search engines. Instead of creating confusion, the content must be relevant for the desired message. As more relevant the article is, as higher will be the changes of being indexed by search engines.

Only a few webmasters succeed to meet all the requirements of article writing and web design. A comprehensive article has become a major marketing tool, determining the usability, appearance and visibility of a website in search engines, having a major impact on the business promoted.
