Why/How You Should Post to Ehow!

Ehow has become one of the most highly sought after websites that provide articles that are based on the “How To” subject.  You can actually dominate a niche using Ehow!  How? Well I am glad that you asked.  Ehow is a PR8 site.  What does that mean to you and your business?  Well…it means ALOT! PR8 means that the site holds alot of authority when it comes to the internet.  Websites generally rank anywhere form PR1-PR10, PR1 meaning that it has low authority…PR10 meaning the highest authority.  Here are a few examples….

This means that a backlink to your website from sites that hold this kind of authority on the world wide web could definitely give you first page Google rankings for keywords that you’re targeting.  Which could potentially mean more visits to your site, which could turn into leads AND CONVERSIONS.  I know, I know, I know…I have heard the same think that you have which is that the more backlinks the better.  To be perfectly honest with you that is true when you are posting to PR3/Pr4/Pr5 sites.  You will need more backlinks from those sites in order to equate to the backlink power of a PR8/PR9/PR10 site.  The higher the authority site the less amount of backlinks you need in order to dominate your niche and that means less work for you.  So here is a step by step guide on how to submit an article to Ehow (PR8) site.

1.  Register a Free account with Ehow – It’s very simple to do just go to www. Ehow.com and signup for a free account.  Fill out the profile and any snazzy little details about yourself.  They have widgets and all kinds of fun stuff that you can use for your personal website and/or blog.

2.  Your “How To” should be a long-tail keyword! – For example, if the subject of your article is cleaning your face maybe the title should be “How to clean your face with all natural products from your kitchen”.  The long tail keyword is clean your face with all natural products from your kitchen. This is what will rank in the search engines on the first page of google.

3.  Give a brief introduction – When starting the article you should give a brief introduction about what the article is going to be about.  This will give the reader a summary of what they are about to read and will let them know if it is relevant to what they are looking for.

4.  Things you’ll need/Difficulty – there is a section in Ehow when submitting that will call for the things that the reader will need in order to accomplish the tasks that you are describing in your article.  Make sure that it is precise, straight and to the point and leave nothing out so that the reader will be able to achieve the results that are outlined in your post.  The difficulty will need to be rated by you so that people know what the learning curve will be.

5.  Instructions – This is where you write your “How To” into steps.  The steps start at 1. of course and can go as long as needed in order to get the point across in your article.  Remember that you are an instructor, an Ehow instructor and that the steps should be very detailed so that everyone can follow along and can do what it is that you are outlining in the post.

6. References – In the reference box you should put the url of the site that you are promoting, whether it’s your personal blog or the url of another blog post that you have written on another site. Voila!  This will provide a backlink to your site.

Keep in mind that depending on your keyword research and what your article is about you may receive different results when it comes to Google page rankings.
