Writing viral reports is one way that you can boost traffic to your website. Viral reports are reports that are straightforward and concise which you distribute to others who then put their affiliate links on them and send out to people on their mailing list.
Writing viral reports works great for all parties involved. Everyone who receives your viral report gets to use content that you have written for them to post online. And you get all those people to distribute your report to potential customers that will visit your website.
You do not have to worry about someone stealing your work. You can include a message in the report that specifies your name and website must be kept on the cover page. If you want, you can purchase software that will specify which links in a pdf document that can't be changed
Even though writing an entire report might seem a little bit overwhelming, you can make it easier by breaking the work down into smaller parts. After deciding what subject to write about, make the report into several sections that you can write each day. When a week has gone by, you will have enough information to make one or two reports.
Remember that you want your report to be interesting, yet clear and easily understandable. Readers will quickly lose interest if they find the report's content to be overly boring. Online readers especially tend to be in the habit of scanning a page instead of reading every word. That means that you need to use bold headlines and bullet lists to make your important content stand out.
When deciding what to write about, do some keyword research and find out what your target market is searching for. You can also look at your website's statistics and see which pages are getting the most views. If you find that a portion of the articles on your site are getting more traffic than other parts of your site, create a special report that goes into more detail about those hot topics.
Your report's content is the most important part. Keep your report from 7 to 14 pages. This will allow you to provide enough content to keep your reader engaged, but also keep it from being so long that they don't finish it.
It might not seem like it, buy providing free information in the form of viral reports can actually help you boost sales of informational products you offer on your website. Use the reports you write to whet your readers' appetite for more information. You can include links to your own informational products and affiliate offers in the report.
Viral reports are also useful in advertising products you have for sale, getting new people to join your mailing list, and generally promoting your website.
If you want more traffic to your website (and who doesn't?) you should be using free article submission as one of your promotional strategies. And you should be submitting your articles at Zogol.com, one of the few article directories that lets you put anchor text inks in the body of the article, not just the resource box.
