When an article is published it would you hope, describe the product or subject? in detail.   At the bottom of the article you will find or should find that it contains a resource box, which is a kind of signature that describes who wrote the article.

(Check out this video titled, ” Traffic Generator Time Saving Tip” from FantasticInternetMarketingTips.com)

A resource boxwill also be referred to as a signature box, which holds the authors bio and links that in general tie in to a blog or website.  You will always find a resource box or signature box provided for you by the article directories, for articles that you wrote to be submitted to article directories. (Side bar; using a article submitter can make submitting articles to directories that much  easier)

A well written resource box or signature box should include your name, your website address your unique selling proposition and a call to action to attract people to buy your product. However, quite frequently it yields a small amount of traffic because of the inefficient writing of the resource box.

Two of the biggest problems are –

1. The resource box contains links that are irrelevant when it should contain links back to your blog or website or blog This becomes beneficial when readers like your article and want to read more about what you have written.  This is also a great way to build one way links back to your blog or website , increasing your  internet marketing online presence.

Very often people will use irrelevant links for various reasons, which ends up sending potential traffic away from their website .

2. The lack of a very good reason to click on your website link is the other reason . Very frequently readers need a good reason other then the content of the article or even the product itself to attract them to your website.

The fact is they want to know what the advantage is to them to visit your website. Give them a reason , describe a discount or free report that you are giving away when they visit your blog or website . The idea of something free can be reason enough for readers to check out your website and generate more traffic.

The goal is to drive traffic to your website, so make sure you put some thought and effort into the resource box  or signature box if you prefer and don’t just slap it together.
