Build Exposure with Your Author Photo

Getting quality content out there is not always enough. To cultivate a loyal readership or to reach out to new readers, it is important to employ simple marketing methods to bring your articles up to the surface and stand out against the thousands of other authors in your niche.

Branding is an incredible marketing technique for your articles. It builds trust with your readers and promotes you as an authority in your niche. Conveyed visually or through written messages, branding is something tangible readers can relate to and recognize.

One of the easiest methods of branding is the visual message. For the writing community, an author's visual message is their author photo. Readers trust someone they can visualize behind the writing and your author photo creates a visual connection.

Lance Winslow "I think I can say this without hesitation or reservation, the Premium Service is a must for anyone who is truly serious about article marketing."

The analytic tools, speed of submission, and ease of use is like day and night... I learned how to really capture the synergies of article marketing and I took my game to a whole new level.

My advice would be; try it out for 3-6 months, and see for yourself, use the tools, and make every article count...

It's okay to be a novice, we all start somewhere, but the Premium Service is for those who are serious about making it, about becoming professional online article marketers, to me that's what it's all about. But what would I know, I only have 25,025 articles online now to prove myself right.
