Article Marketing & Online Marketing Strategies from IdeaMarketers - Where Your Ideas Shine

IdeaMarketers Navigation Streamlined

In an effort to make IdeaMarketers easier to navigate, I've updated the top-of-site navigation. The menu now has a cleaner look that hopefully will make it easier for you to find things and also better spotlight our feature articles. Let me know what you think. :) I'm always open to suggestions for making the site better.

Article Submitter Software Saves you Time

Our Article Submitter software is back and better than ever. With it, you can submit articles to other article repository sites faster and easier. If you're interested in something that will reduce the time you spend submitting articles to other sites besides ours, you might want to look into it.  Bear in mind that this isn't just a "load and run" program that blasts your articles out. It speeds up the process, but still gives you control of what gets submitted to each article site so you can make your submissions unique. Learn more here.

Search Engine Tool - How Well Are Your Articles Doing?

As a follow up to my previous post on search engine positioning for articles, I've developed a cool tool for you that will help you quickly look up your articles on AOL, MSN, Google and Ask.com. To use it, just go log into your writer account. Then under "Article Administration" you'll see "Look up your articles on search engines." Select that and it will take you to a page that lists all your articles and gives you quick links for looking them up on search engines. There are also some tips on that page for getting better positioning. I hope you find this useful. Oh, and if you can't remember your login information, you may have it sent to you.

Hands-Free Content Streaming in Honor of Independence Day

I've got a holiday treat for our Publisher's Toolbox PRO subscribers - whether you're an American or not. For Independence Day, we're giving you more independence in your ability to keep fresh content on your site without the work! Articles on your site can update while you eat dinner, while you sleep, or even while you vacation for weeks on end!

You just put a little code on your Web site and from then on, articles from any given subcategory will instantly appear on your site and update automatically!

This means if you want to stream ten Life: Inspirational articles onto a page and have those articles change in a hands-free manner, then you can do that in a snap. Any time new Inspirational articles are added to IdeaMarketers, they'll automatically update on your site. You set it up once and it updates all on its own from then on! Or if you'd like fifteen Business:Entrepreneur articles, you just put a snippet of code on your site, and they'll appear and update on their own. There are over 140 subcategories to choose from and you can choose how many articles to display - 5, 10, 15, 20, 25 . . . 50!

If you're a PRO subscriber, you can learn more about how this works by logging into your Publisher's Toolbox PRO account and selecting the link that says "Stream 100+ Subcategories onto your Web site!" If you're not a subscriber, learn more here.
