Great Ways To Generate Automated Content
The following article is one of a series of articles which focus on Affiliate, Article and Internet Marketing. All of the
articles are based on real experiences and research done over twenty years as a personal and business coach. They
are also written in response to questions which I have been asked as well as address common challenges that people
have with affiliate marketing, article marketing, internet marketing or running an online business in general. I sincerely hope that
you find the following information of value. One idea, one tip, one clue can make all the difference.
We all know that content is king on the internet. The maxim has been cited so many times that it has already become
a cliché. It has become a cliché because it's true. The internet IS the information superhighway. The processes in the
World Wide Web are fueled by information. Users search for it because they need it. Web publishers provide it. And when
you give the information that people want, then you're in business. Whether your online endeavor is based on Pay Per
Click (PPC) programs or the sale of digital products, quality content will drive people to your pages time and time again.
Indeed, content is your best investment for your online enterprise. But preparing unique, premium content is often not
enough. You must strive to regularly update your content so that the search engine spiders would constantly crawl through
your pages and fetch them for every relevant query. This is the key to good search engine placement. It is very
effective…
… but it is also very demanding.
Writing good content is taxing enough. Having to write the same on a regular basis could be difficult. Having to write
the same on a regular basis for several websites could be hellish. Are there any alternatives?
========SIDEBAR========
Affiliate, Article and Internet Marketing in general isn't as easy as many would have us believe. I fully understand
(through my own experiences) that it is a lot easier said than done. However, you are here, right now, because you
have a desire to improve your business, grow your business, and be more successful. These articles are here with
the sole intention of helping you to make the whole process a lot easier.
======END SIDEBAR======
As a suggestion, here are five great alternatives that not a lot of people are employing. Knowing them alone could give
you the edge over your competitors in the race for good, solid traffic and search engine positioning.
1. Try RSS. RSS, which stands for Real Simple Syndication, is a technology that was first used by news wire services
online. RSS allows users to display specific files every time they are uploaded on a source website. If website A, for
example, generates RSS feeds to announce new articles uploaded to its server, and websites B, C, D and E are subscribed
to website A's RSS feeds, they could display the said feeds on their desktop via an RSS aggregator. For online marketing
purposes, these RSS feeds can also be displayed on your web pages. All you need is to download some programs that would
enable you to do this. Make sure that you get an RSS-to-HTML reader, so that the RSS feeds you will display on your
pages can be readable for the search engine spiders. Afterwards, all you have to do is to subscribe to an appropriate
RSS feed, and every time the source website would post new content, you'll be able to display the same on your own website.
2. Create your own forum. Online users normally gravitate towards forums that are dedicated to their own passions. If
your website has an attached forum, you'd be able to invite your visitors to sign up with the same. They'll be left to
their own devices. They'll create threads about matters they are interested with. They will pots messages to their
hearts' liking. And you will have a virtual well of constantly updating content, without having to type a single word!
3. Integrate a feedback manager. If you're posting articles as content, then you might want to include a feedback system
for the same. This would enable your readers to leave their comments below the said article. Basically, your article
would serve as the catalyst for content that will continuously be added by interested readers who want to share their
piece of mind on what you have posted.
4. Run a contest. Offering a prize for the visitor who submits the most engaging article relevant to the subject of your
website, for example, would encourage a lot of people to submit entries that you could use as your own content. Just
remember that your contest rules should include a term which states that submitted entries can be published on your
website as a condition to their inclusion in the contest proper.
5. Run a mini-article directory. Try to visit www.ezinearticles.com or www.goarticles.com . See how these websites ensure
for themselves an abundant supply of great content? Simply follow their model, and implement the same on your website,
even if it would be on a downgraded level. You'd be able to guarantee for yourself a good flow of new content!
Apart from this article on automated content, there are a number of other marketing articles to help you determine which
strategies and tactics are suited to you and your online business.
