My first sale - I can't believe this worked.

    Hello all,

    I learned about the possibility of making any money online and about internet marketing less than one month ago, and today I made my first sale. I haven't spent any money on any kind of advertising - I've utilized only free methods of SEO which I learned about on DP.

    I chose one clickbank product, and I've written ten articles, and they have been only posted on EZA. Each article links back to my free blogspot blog. I use squidoo, hubpages, twitter, digg, and delicious pointing to each article, and also pointing to my blog. Each article has also been published on the blog and the blog contains my hoplinks.

    Also, I posted each article (edited slightly) on squidoo and hoplinked from there.

    All articles are on the first through fourth pages of google, and two articles are in the number 2 spot, and one digg comment about my blog is a first search result.

    I can't believe this has worked, and I want to thank all of the poeple on DP who post regular and quality posts. I don't really know what I am doing yet, but I am confident that this will continue to work for me and my results will grow.

    Thanks again.

    Hulud, this is a great first sale thread because you have focused on the method not the money ... you will go far :)

    Can't see a $ symbol in your post, but plenty of useful information. Nice.

    I completely agree. It was very nice to see one of these "I got my first sale" threads with some actual information about how it was achieved.

    Great job Hulud! It's all uphill from here. :cool:

    Congratulations, some people take months / years to even do this - take what you have learnt, repeat it, improve it, scale it up and youll be well on your way! :)
    Congrats!

    Congrats, now you can afford to buy your own domain name so you can direct traffic to your own website instead of someone elses.

    That's pretty good for a newbie. You must have done some serious keyword research to optimize your articles to get on the first 4 pages already.

    First of all congrats Hulud on your effort...

    Second of all I got one question so I hope you guys can answer it.

    When somebody opens a product page through me as an affiliate and then close the page, then let's say 4-5 days later he open again the same page but through different affiliate, will I get the commission or the other affiliate?

    Thanks in advance
