ezine articles, article marketing, #HAHDCome back with me to a Saturday Morning in the Spring of 2009 (feels kinda cool to say “Spring of 2009″ here is the first day of 2010…)

I’m watching cartoons with my 2 sons and playing around on Twitter. I begin chatting with two “students done good” Felicia Slattery and Keith Goodrum about challenging ourselves to write more articles in less time for all the benefits involved.

Next thing we know, the first “100 Articles in 100 Days” is born. Keith grabs the #HAHD hashtag on Twitter. Felicia begins to promote it. I throw up a quick site. Chris Knight of EzineArticles gets on board and begins to promote it.

And all of a sudden, a little idea on a Saturday morning has gone big and viral!

At the end of the first challenge in July of 2009, Chris Knight asked me when I planned on launching the next one. I said sometime in the fall. Chris said how about August 1st. I said take it away Chris! And so the 2nd #HAHD Challenge began!

Which brings us to 2010 and the launch of the 3rd #HAHD Marathon Challenge which begins today!

I highly recommend you take up this challenge for all the great results it will bring you. There is no need to sign up for anything unless of course you do not yet have a free account at Ezine Articles. You can get all the details by clicking here.

So what are all the great benefits I mentioned to writing 100 Articles in 100 Days? Well in addition to all the great prizes you see in the graphic up above, here are just a few of the benefits:

  • You prove to yourself that you can do it. I can hear the chatter in your head right now. Prove to yourself that you can do it!
  • You will have created tons of content.
  • You will have built lots of traffic to your sites.

Social Marketing is a very powerful way to create massive online visibility, drive traffic and build your list. The challenge for many markers is how do you find the time to do what you need to do to be effective on each site. And to do it in a way that does not take hours a day.

The good news is there are many ways to both automate and integrate our Social Marketing. Let’s take a closer look at what I mean by automation and integration.

Automation – There are actions on each of the Social Marketing tools that can be set up to be done automatically for you, so you do not have to be there to take each action.

Integration – Many of the main Social Marketing tools can be set up so that an action (a marketing message) taken on one site will result in an action (other marketing messages) taken on one or more other sites.

I realize the two statements above may not make complete sense to you unless and until you have experienced them. So let me show you what I mean with 5 of the major Social Marketing sites. Click here to keep reading…

And it’s so true.

Because of Article Marketing I get a hourly and daily flow of traffic into my web sites that is virtually unstoppable. And you can too when you follow these three powerful and repeatable steps. Read More→

article marketing, ezine articles, jeff herring, chris knightChris Knight and his team over at EzineArticles.com have come up with another innovation to help you track traffic and visitors to your EzineArticles.com account and your articles.

According to Chris Knight, “Now, when you log in to your EzineArticles Membership account, you’ll notice a new “Profile Views” stat that will now track the # of visitors to your Expert Author Profile (example) & Extended Author Profile (example).”

They just began tracking this stat this week, so only the visits to your profile page from this week on will be listed.

This fits in nicely with what I have been suggesting to you for several weeks now – get the domain name – www.ArticlesbyYourName.com - and forward it to your profile page, where visitors can see your profile, links to your web sites and blogs, books you recommend, and all of your articles complete with more links back to your web sites and blogs.

Examples: www.ArticlesbyJeff.comwww.ArticlesbyAlex.com

If your first name is taken, use your first and last name. I get my domain names at www.MustangMarketingDomains.com
