Getting Your Visitors to Willingly Give You Content: Part 2
On Friday, we touched on a few ways you can get people to happy to give you useable content and I told you I’d be back again with more. Here I am. Let’s talk about reviews and article submissions today.
Submitting Reviews
One way to get people to submit reviews is to have a site dedicated to reviews of specific types of products. For instance, products used by internet marketers or products for gardeners.
You can have the whole process automated with a script, so that people can submit aytheir comments and ratings.
To get the momentum going, you might pay for people to write reviews or allow them to submit their affiliate links. Once things get going, people will willingly add their reviews just to voice their opinion.
Add Contributors to Your Blog or Newsletter
Find experts that would appeal to your audience and invite them to become contributors. They create additional content for your site and give your readers more valuable information regarding your topic. This also is a great way to free up your time to focus on other traffic getting efforts.
You set the guidelines as to how often they need to post, what topics they can post about and more. An example of this is my Because Mom Said So Blog. I have various contributors who all have information to share that is informative and of interest to my readers and I don’t have to worry about whether I’m creating enough content to keep readers and search engines, visiting.
Article Sites
Article directories abound now-a-days, but there is always room for more. If you create an article submissions site, be sure, just as you do with review sites, that you are accepting articles on a specific topic.
Make the rules specific as to who can submit and the types of articles you accept. This will not stop some from submitting inappropriate articles or blatant spam (SIGH!)), but that’s why you should have an approval process for all articles in place.
I’ll be back later with some tips on how to write your own content and articles.
