[EzineArticles] Branding With Your Author Photo on My.EzineArticles.com

Branding With Your Author Photo on My.EzineArticles.com EzineArticles.com Logo

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.

By uploading your Author Photo on My.EzineArticles.com:

  • Your author photo will be included in each of your live articles and you can begin to gain exposure for your brand.
  • You will enhance your EzineArticles.com Expert Author Biography page and build trust with readers and publishers.
  • You will lend credibility to your My.EzineArticles.com Discussions with other Expert Authors.
  • You will be recommended to other Expert Authors on the My.EzineArticles.com Recommendations page.
  • You will earn the Photogenic Author Profile Award on My.EzineArticles.com.
  • You will meet the Author Photo requirement for the elite Diamond Level membership application.

Upload Your Author Photo with My.EzineArticles.com

To upload your author photo:

  1. Log into your My.EzineArticles.com account.
  2. Select the Profile tab, and then select Edit Image.
  3. Select Upload New Image and select the image you would like to use from your computer.
  4. Expand the crop area and rotate the photo if necessary using the arrows underneath the image.
  5. Once you are satisfied with your Profile Photo, select Save.

You can add additional photos to your Expert Author Biography page by selecting Professional Photos from the left-navigation menu. Select Upload a Photo to get started and follow the same process as you did for uploading your Profile Photo. You can add a caption to your Professional Photos by typing in the provided Title field.

Before you upload a photo, ensure it meets the following guidelines:

  • The photo must be actual photo of you or have you in the photo.
  • Renderings, drawings, or non-photo images are acceptable if they are of you.
  • The photo must be .jpg or .jpeg file.
  • The photo's file size must be Less than 100k.

Please note, we will not accept company and/or personal logos, symbols, crests, avatar images, violent, sexually-explicit or offensive material, or copyrighted images author photos.

Make sure your Author Photo is uploaded and is conveying the right message by logging into your My.EzineArticles.com Profile page here. If you already have a photo uploaded, you may want to reassess whether the photo is true to your brand and the message you would like to convey: trust, credibility, confidence, and you. If it isn't, you may want to find a photo of yourself or take a new photo that exudes confidence and authority in your niche and upload it today!

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.

[EzineArticles] Night at the Movies: What Your Readers Want to See

Night at the Movies: What Your Readers Want to See EzineArticles.com Logo

Nightmare on Article Street Part 2 - If You Missed the Previous Article...

Starting in the middle of a movie series can make the storyline difficult to follow. The same is true for readers beginning in the middle of an article series.

Imagine standing in line with a friend at a movie theater while looking at theatre's marquee to decide what to see...

Space Invaders Part 7

Never having heard of Space Invaders, you are confused on how you could have missed previews for the first seven films. That's a lot to have to catch up with and you see there are plenty of other films available to watch. You turn to your friend and you both agree the movie is not for you...

Like you and your friend, readers want readily accessible information that is easy to comprehend without having to play catch up by looking for the preceding articles. Readers want the full benefit in one article rather than across several articles. If the reader perceives it will take too much work to go searching for all the parts, the reader will continue looking for the content they desire.

Make it EASY for readers by giving jam-packed informative value in one concise article, rather than breaking up topics into parts.

Wily Wizards III

You DID see the first and second Wily Wizards, but your friend did not. No matter how much you talk up the movies, your friend thinks it would be too much trouble to try to find I and II, and then return to watch the third. Your friend has already lost interest in Wily Wizards and moves on...

Like your excitement for the latest Wily Wizards movie, publishers are excited about your articles; however, they know the reader doesn't want to play catch-up. Content presented in a series may work for blog posts or ebooks, but a series is not easy to re-distribute for syndication by publishers.

Make it EASY for publishers and readers alike by writing self-contained articles and you will increase your chances of being syndicated. This creates added exposure for your content, your website or blog, as well as additional backlinks when your content is included on other sites.

Standing Alone

Brand new, totally original, and got rave reviews. The movie promises all the action, adventure, and thrill you and your friend have been looking for without having to go back and find additional content. Do you and your friend buy a ticket? YES!

Like you and your friend, your reader will be excited to read your article because they are not confused by anything leading up to it, they are not daunted by all the legwork to read your article, and there's a better chance they have found it by a trusted source they have subscribed to.

You can do this by narrowing down the focus of your article and planning ahead to ensure your articles stay focused on your reader's needs.

For example: let's say you are an Expert Author on building houses. If you start off on the huge topic of building houses, you are really going to end up with an article pushing the 5,000 word count limit that is not easily digested by article readers. However, if you narrow down your focus by planning ahead, you can break the topic of home building down into a set of articles like this: "Planning Your Dream Home," "To Hire or Not to Hire a Contractor When Building Your Home," "A Home Builders Checklist - Don't Build a Home Without It," "DIY Home Building - What Many Home Builders Wish They Knew Before They Began Building," etc.

Write with the reader's time and effort in mind by providing the full benefit in each article. If you do find yourself in a "series" mode, learn how to truly optimize it with the 2 Minute Approval Tips: Optimize Articles in a Series video.

There's so much to write! How do you break up large article topics into self-contained articles? Let us know in the comments section here!

[EzineArticles] Words of Wisdom Article Template

Words of Wisdom Article Template EzineArticles.com Logo

Readers and Authors Use Famous Quotations as a Source of Inspiration

If after reading a quote you have found yourself saying: "I wish I wrote that!" Or believe someone else said it best, therefore there is no need for you to say it again - we have the article template for you.

Famous quotations, words of wisdom, idioms, and proverbs are a great way to engage the reader and share your personal story that either proves the words of wisdom or disproves them.

Some common expressions and words of wisdom can be "spot on" and teach us life lessons so we don't have to make the same mistakes others have made in the past.

In other cases, we learn that some words of wisdom may be inaccurate based on our own experience. This is something definitely worth sharing.

Either way, if some personal experience in your niche reminds you of words of wisdom you have heard in the past, you can write an article about that experience.

Let's get started with the Words of Wisdom Article Template:

  • Share the Quote in Your Introduction: Lead the article off with the quote you are going to be discussing and share who said the quote originally. Provide a brief explanation of what it means (or its intended meaning). If it is a fairly uncommon quote, you may want to provide a brief background or context for the reader.
     
  • Tell Your Story: Show readers how you found the words of wisdom to either be true or false, don't tell (i.e. "I did this and then this happened..."). You can show readers your story by maintaining a conversational tone to keep readers engaged and providing them with important and descriptive details.
     
  • Explain the Lesson: Reiterate what you learned from your experience. If the words of wisdom didn't really speak to you, explain why.
     
  • Recap Your Thoughts: Conclude your thoughts about the original words of wisdom by outlining the key points of your lesson and whether you felt the quote was accurate or inaccurate. Give your readers one last push by helping them see your story from a different perspective.

Consider this template when you are ready to pass on your own words of wisdom about your niche. Come back here and let us know how it worked for you! Who knows? Maybe someone else will be quoting your articles in the near future!

[Must Read] A Noble Samurai Exclusive

Hi Thoms
 
Building on the 'Outsourcing' series we've recently posted, I wanted to share something with you.
 
You know the Noble Samurai team and I rarely recommend courses... in fact, you can count on a couple of fingers the courses we have recommended to our list over the years.
 
But we've negotiated on your behalf to get you exclusive access to something amazing - you have to see this for yourself here:
 
http://articlesamurai.com/c/NobleSamuraiExclusive
 
We've convinced Pete & Dave to release the digital recordings of a closed door workshop they ran which Anthony, myself and a number of other marketers attended. 
 
I have not seen anything like this before and we're keen for you to check it out. Using the size of our community as leverage, we've got you an exclusive on the digital recordings at a no-brainer price.
 
This is a superb course and I'm confident you're going to love it. Take our word for it, both myself and the rest of the team at Noble Samurai highly recommend it.
 
Find out more about it here:
 
http://articlesamurai.com/c/NobleSamuraiExclusive
 
Enjoy,
 
Ben Stickland
 
Ps. Remember this is a Market Samurai exclusive - these digital recordings have never been made available and, at this price, we have been given a deadline. The offer closes this Friday 25th November at Midnight US Pacific Time.

Article Templates #4

Hello Training Series Member,

Here is the next edition of the EzineArticles.com Article Writing: Content Sources and Article Templates Training Series.

Survey Results Articles: Your readers love reading the results of relevant surveys you've conducted in your niche. Give it to them in your next set of articles.

Why articles that include the results of surveys are valuable:
  • You are delivering the result of multiple hours, days or weeks of research.

  • You are summarizing mountains of data into a less than 1,000 word summary.

  • You are helping your reader to key into which numbers in the results are important and why.

  • You are describing how to evaluate the results, and how they can apply to your reader's business.
A single survey's results can help you easily produce a series of 2-15 articles.

Key Insight: It's better to share survey results from surveys you or your company have done. Never share results of surveys that came from proprietary information you had to pay for. It's recommended that you never write articles that use the basis of someone else's survey results as the basis of your article/s.

Example Article: What Makes a Manager a Bad Boss - Survey Results


"Golden Rules of X" Articles: This article template idea is ridiculously simple, yet can be powerfully perceived as valuable by your readership. Here's how the Golden Rules of X article template works:
  • Create an article title:
    Examples:
    1. "Golden Rules of _____________"
    2. "The 16 Golden Rules of ____________"
    3. "____________ Golden Rules to Live by"

  • Using a numbered list, include the rules that sum up the primary lessons you've discovered or learned through your experience & expertise.

  • Expand to include "WHY" each golden rule you've outlined is important.

  • Summarize at the end the theme behind why your set of golden rules are important and what it will mean to the reader when they implement them in their own life and/or business.
Broad vs. Narrow focus: You can include the golden rules of various aspects of your niche including narrow topics or sub-topics rather than only a broadly-focused set of golden rules.

Example: One might write an article on the: "7 Golden Rules of Article Writing & Marketing". Follow that up with an article on the "10 Article Title Golden Rules To Profit By," "4 Golden Rules of Writing Resource Boxes That Sell," or "19 Golden Rules of How To Pick Article Topic Choices".

For more information on the Golden Rules Article Template, visit the EzineArticles Blog: http://Blog.EzineArticles.com/2008/05/golden-rules-article-template.html

Judy H. Wright "...the positive effects of passive income and name recognition is well worth the effort."

Thanks so much for the great publicity. I was amazed at how many articles I already had written when I started digging out all my old notes and speeches. It just took a little reformatting, bringing up to date and filling in here and there to have them ready to send off to you.

Even though we are swamped with projects, the positive effects of passive income and name recognition is well worth the effort. Keep up the good work.
