I am pretty good at article marketing. In 30 days Im averaging 2 sales a day (when clickbanks systems is functioning properly) But the problem is a few days after i submit my articles to ezine almost all my traffic dies. My stats go from 150 unique visitors to 20 unique visitors. So on the days where i get my 150 unique visitors i make 3 sales on average and when i get my 20 visitors i only make a sale every other day. How can I get a steady stream of visitors? I have only explored article marketing. What else should I do to get a steady 100 people to my landing page every day? Thanks
U can do PPC, or post your articles to HubPages or Squidoo too. They have huge reader base and you can put whatever links that you like in the middle of your article.
The problem with squidoo and hubpages is that you need to send the traffic there, it doesn't just come like ezinearticles
When you are doing article marketing via Ezine articles, where are you driving traffic to? Blogs, hubpages, squidoo lenses, or a website? I'm just curious, as I have started to venture into the Clickbank world, and I'm going solely off of article marketing and using lenses. Do you think driving traffic to a well written lens converts sales?
Beats me. Are you just submitting the articles and hoping for the best? Perhaps if you submitted the article and then after a couple of days you hit it with digg, redit, propeller etc. Then a week later you repeated the above using a different account name. I suppose it is a matter of time management. Whether 'tis better to write new articles or stir the embers of the old ones for a bit more life. I wish I could afford to do what I think would work. Imagine if you found a "killer" new product that paid say $75 per sale. You pay to have 100 articles written by various starving students at $6 per article. Total outlay $600. Then you totally blitz the article directories with them. You would break even on the eighth sale and everything past that is pure profit.
If you want to use only EzineArticles, then the only way to have long term traffic is constantly submitting more articles. Some will die, some will grow. Writing an article doesn't take long. So just write...That's why I think More articles = more chances to make a sale. Of course, quality is also important, but I think having 100 articles vs 10 quality articles is more effective.
I'd say the traffic is in the volume of the submitted articles. The more you submit, the more traffic you will get. Even if traffic will slow down after a week or two, if you submitted hundreds of articles you will still get hundreds or even thousands of visits a day to your site. Also, your submitted articles help your pages rank well in all SEs. This will eventually bring organic SE traffic that is converting very well.
I agree with you Bl4ckman but hornetss , you have to realize that EA is not the only article directory out there. You can re-write your articles and publish them somewhere else. Here two more article sites with their PR http://ideamarketers.com 5\10 http://www.jogena.com/ 5\10 Good luck Hornetss
Yeah, megarudy is actually right too. I just don't concentrate on other directories, because I think they produce very low traffic. I used to use the following directories in the past: www.isnare.com www.searchwarp.com www.goarticles.com
I'm struggling with this as well. I see some ezinearticles that rank high on Google long term and I haven't been able to figure out how they are doing it. It almost seems random.
I can speak from a little bit of experience here and say that the more articles the better. Article marketing started out slow for me, but now that I have 100+ articles I'm making a sale almost every day even if a new article doesn't go live. I have to be honest and say that my first articles for my first niche were crap and I abandoned the niche, but just this week I made two sales from those articles. The more the merrier!
