Re: Ezine- can I tell the reader about the solution in the body of the article?

    One of the products I'm writing about involves using a certain technique to rid a problem. So being new to article writing and not wanting to waste time getting it wrong I just wanted to know if I can let the reader know there is a technique that will solve their problem but just give them backround info on the technique (I want to do this in the body of the article to make them curious) but I don't know if this would be considered 'promoting the product'?

    Ie If I am promoting a skin exfoliating product can I talk about the benefits of exfoliation.... and then say there is a special technique and talk about how great this technque is and what it can do for them without actually giving anything away. I bet this is a stupid question :eek: but I just got confused when I read Ezine said 'no promotion allowed in the body.'

    can anyone help me out? thanks.

    Well I guess you can make it, complete or incomplete.

    The later will drive more curiosity, but I am not sure if it will get your article approved.
    They usually look for usable content.

    Cheers.

    The way I have had success is to talk about the benefits of skin exfoliating in the article and in the resource box say something to the effect of "To learn more about skin exfoliation click here!" with your link.

    Actually that is rather elementary because you want your keyword the link but it's fine to send them to your site in the resource box after talking in general about skin exfoliation. It's important that your site offers more than just a sales pitch though... make sure that there is more/additional information or else ezine may kick it out.

    My personal opinion is you always want to leave the read "wanting." I like to use the main article body for purely information and to draw them in. The last paragraph to seal their interest and then offer a promise of the solution if they clickthrough the link in the resource box.
