Do you ever wonder how much traffic you could be generating if you wrote more articles? If you were to take the average figures for click through rates and daily article views you could easily come up with a formula for how many site visitors you would receive. Let's say that each article you have written gets viewed 10 times per day. Let's also say that you have written 10 articles. According to Christopher Knight the average click through rate of a reader for the author bio is around 3%. This means that 10 articles viewed 10 times each would result to 100 page views. With a 3% click through rate you would receive around 3 visitors to your site each day.

These are very modest numbers used in the above example. Many of my articles are read over 50 times their first day published. This also only takes into account the amount of page views you receive from the article directory itself, and it does not figure in the search engine traffic and traffic from other sites that use your articles. The above example is simply a worst case scenario for the traffic you will receive from your articles.

If you discipline yourself enough to write at least one article per day for six months then you will have approximately 180 articles written. Say these 180 articles are viewed 20 times each per day (which is about normal). This would equate to around 3,240 visitors per month! Anyone can see how effective article marketing can be for building your traffic. As long as you write effective articles with an author bio that attracts clicks you will be fine. A good title filled with keywords helps too!
