Aspiring small business owners and solopreneur marketers everywhere are excited about new possibilities created by the Internet publishing revolution. The steep mountain of pricey ads, brochures and other marketing materials alike has proved impossible for many to get past during war time.

According to Article Marketing Speedway course instructor Earma Brown that obstacle has been reduced to a tiny molehill. More and more small business owners with shoe string budgets realize the (low cost) effectiveness of writing articles to publicize their business or products.

According to the Center for Digital Future, Los Angeles, CA in a recent study, the overall use of the Internet is steadily growing. Their findings say 56.3 percent of users 17 and older consider the Internet to be a very important or extremely important source of information for them. Additionally, they list among the top ten Internet activities; people are seeking information about everything from hobbies, online banking, medical information and travel information.

Within all this Internet growth and information seeking is a niche category called Article Marketing also experiencing high levels of growth. Simply put, Article Marketing is the process of writing and submitting 'free reprint articles' to popular article directory sites across the Internet. An article directory web site is considered a bank of free reprint articles - a place where writers submit their articles free.

In turn, web masters, web publishers and editors scour the popular article directory sites looking for free quality content to use in their newsletters, web sites and blogs. For the free use of a writer's article, the webmaster includes their author bio with active links to their web site. Each time a webmaster/publisher picks up a free article it becomes yet another link to the writer's site and a boost to their page ranking.

A recent study by Glenn Murray publicized as SEO Copywriter by the SiteProNews.com published that as a result of its (article marketing) new found mainstream popularity, the number of articles being written and submitted has increased by between 100% - 600% in the past year! (2006)
