I came across an article like this not too long ago, made a few changes, and now I feel like a resource box guru! Just a few simple changes can increase CTR dramatically. My trick? After the person reads the article, you have to make them feel like they absolutely need to click through to find out more information. A good one I use on a weight loss article is: "To learn how this will kill you within 5 years, check out xxxxxx right away - your life depends on it." Gets 'em every time :) My experience with article resource boxes, at first, was very bleek.

Nowadays, the resource box has become a vital spot with the introduction of Bum Marketing. Travis Sago started this concept which basically needs you to promote affiliate products by leaving a link in the resource box of an article related to the particular product. Great article Case.

The main objective of the article resource box is to generate leads. Your call to action should get the reader to take the next logical step, which is to obtain a position inside your sales funnel. The second objective of the resource box is to prove your credentials as a category authority. This means you should include your real name to allow the reader to associate the topic material with your expertise. Always, always include your name! You'd be surprised at how many readers will search Google for your NAME so they can be introduced to more of your expertise. Article marketing can be very rewarding but only if it's done properly. Your article is SPOT on the money. You've made some really great points in this article and I appreciate the knowledge you shared. Good job! All good things, Bonnie I run an article directory and the misuse of the article resource box is apparent in many of the submissions I receive.

You must give the reader a reason to click your link without noising like a sales letter. So, forget the free bonus offers and the limited time only jargon. Just force the reader with facts and attempt not to sound like a salesman. One critical and often ignored point is your hyperlink in the resource box. Please remember to make sure that your link’s anchor text includes the keywords that you want to be ranked for in the search engines. Avoid use your personal name or website URL except those are the terms you want to get ranked for.

Yes we should pick a resource box that we are going to use before finishing the article. The reason for writing the article is to drive traffic to the site in the resource box. Make sure the article itself has good content and with no sales pitch. The advertising is in the resource box link. Great Post!

Loved this article as it had a lot of tactics which I had never thought about before and I am going to use them on my next article.

Main point near the bio – bio text to match landing page etc

I believe that this information is worth ‘gold’ as I am sure it will lead to more interest.

Many thanks
