Your brilliant article is now published on Go Overseas and you’re eager to see the reaction from the readers. But you’re also thinking: is there anything I can do to spread the word? In fact, there is!

Here are 5 ways to promote your article after it’s published.

One. Post It On Facebook / Myspace

If you’re one of the five people left on the planet without an account on one of these sites…then I envy you. But for everyone else, it’s a great place to share a link to your article and get your friends reading it.

Two. Blog About It

Write a new post on your blog that explains the “behind the scenes” story of why you wrote the article. You could talk about how you first had the idea, what it feels like to be published, the aim you are trying to achieve with your piece, a side-story that didn’t make the cut, etc.

Three. Email It To Your Friends / Family

Ask your friends and family for their thoughts on your article. Maybe they’ll surprise you with some excellent feedback or comments on the post!

Four. Send It To Other Bloggers

What’s great content if nobody knows it’s there? Do some research online and find other great blogs that may be interested in sharing your article with their readers. Just make sure you’re polite, mention why you like their blog, and why you think your article is beneficial to share.

Five. Bookmark It On Digg / StumbleUpon / Reddit / Delicious

Social-media sites offer the chance to gain massive readership for your article. Just make sure you have a lot of friends in your network, and mark your piece with the right tags. Check out Digg, StumbleUpon, Reddit, and Delicious for more info.
