Erik Van Tongerloo
Every writer wants to find the key to generate more traffic and hopes to make much money from the articles he/she has written and published in writing sites. It is certainly not an easy job and requires time, patience and efforts to spend time to write quality articles. Generating more page views is always important, no matter which the payment strategy of the site you've chosen is.

Some sites pay upfront payment and often also pay extra money for every page view you get; others allow you to make money through affiliate programs. No matter which payment structure the site where you publish your articles is, you need to generate more traffic to your articles.

Here are some tips which may help you to increase your daily page views and to make money from the articles you've published:

*Write quality articles with good SEO

It is important you spend time to write a quality article and may help readers to find the necessary information. Travel, health, financial, business topics are often good choices but you may get also much traffic to relationship, hobby related topics or some other popular topics. You need to ensure you write an article with an introduction, a middle and a conclusion and it is important you use keyword correctly in your articles (good SEO).

It is necessary you write without grammar and spelling mistakes and spend much time to use good formatting. Nobody wants to read articles without paragraphs and paragraphs may also not be too long because it will bore the reader. It is important you spend also much time to create a good title for your article and one where you don't find already thousands on the net. How to articles are often good ideas but you need also to use popular keywords in your articles.

*Join social networking sites

Joining social networking will increase your daily page views rapidly if you choose these which are suitable for the content you've written. It is certainly important to join several of these sites and use them properly and follow their guidelines. It is often not a good idea to post only links of your own articles. Many of these sites don't allow this because this will be considered as self promotion but you can never go wrong if you don't exaggerate. The purpose of networking sites as Digg, Reddit, Newsvine and some others is to promote high quality content and if you mix own content with important news facts, you can generate more traffic to your articles.

Facebook, Twitter, MySpace and some other similar networking sites are used to make friends and to interact with people from all places of the world. It is good idea to share links of your published articles in writing sites with people you know. The benefit of twitter is that someone else can retweet your article and within a short time, it can be spread to thousands or even millions people. Twittley is certainly useful because if you submit a link there, you will generate traffic from as well Twittley as Twitter.

Redgage is a new kind of social networking site and pays for your links of your own content. Submitting links of your articles in this site can generate much traffic to your articles and possible your article appears also in search engines. It is important to make many friends in this site and your activity in this site will help you to generate more traffic and more page views.

*Participate in community boards of writing sites

It may help you to increase your page views of your articles if you participate in community boards or forums of writing sites. The purpose of these boards is to network with other writers and often if you need advice or help with site features or some problems which occur. If you ask a question or you offer to help other writers, you can generate more page views because people will click your profile and read some articles of you.

*Participate in forums

It may help you to join forums which fit the content of articles you've published. It is best you participate their discussions and place from time to time a link of your article. It is not recommended to place only links because most forums don't allow this and may be considered as spam or self promotion. Helpful links will generate more traffic because many forums get many visitors and appear also in search engines.

*Make a blog

Blogging is a popular trend and can increase your daily page views. There are several ways how you can use a blog to promote your articles. Most writers have an icon of the writing sites which refers to their articles. Clicking these icons will show their articles and possible they generate more page views if visitors click some links of their articles.

It is maybe more useful to create a blog where you publish the first two paragraphs of your articles and write "Read more or Read the full article" with a link to your article. Postings will appear in search engines and you generate more page views.

Increasing daily page views will result in making more money. The key is to get a good Page ranking of your articles in search engines. There is no magic formula how you succeed but good SEO is the most important tool. The importance of tags may also not be underestimated because it will help readers to find your articles. Repeat keywords which fit the content of your article several times in your article but don't exaggerate to avoid the reader's attention.

Promoting your articles is certainly necessary and will help you to get a better Page Ranking in the search engines. Emailing links of your articles to your family members and friends will also help and it is best you write regularly quality articles.

These tips may help writers to increase their daily page views and to make more money. It is important you spend time to investigate which system works best for long term effects. A quality article which can generate you much money every month has more effect than these with a short term effect. Put some energy in quality writing and promoting and you can succeed to make more money.
