Shoot me down in flames if I'm way off beam by posting this. Background I've a new site that's been recently accepted into the Google News network. Now the site is only a little over a week old, but I'm averaging over 1000 uniques a day from Google. Proof of those figures can be shown. 1 article I published yesterday has brought in near 5000 unique's and quite a few comments and was in the top positions on GN search and regular search for nearly 12 hours. I'm still @ 4th position on GN today The right article choice (read keywords) pretty much guarantees you 1st spot on GN, and depending on the competition, Google regular search also. Plus the articles gets indexed for life and archived. Again proof of positions for previously published articles can be shown. Like any cash strapped site owner, it's a fine balance between writing your own content (hours involved) and/or paying for decent content. So I though that perhaps some here *may* be interested in writing articles under your own name, with a link to your own site. One option could be you contribute for free and become a regular contributor and share in the Adsense revenue ( you'd need your own Adsense account) The other option is that you get to publish under your own name with link, but I'm given a large discount on the articles. Or final option is that you all jump down my throat and tell me to pee off **edit** I should clarify that the articles are written in a news/review style, to comply with Google's guidelines. Not difficult, as there's a reasonable amount of latitude involved. Straight Ezine type articles wouldn't make the cut though. cheers
What is the link to the site? I would like to take a look at it. I am actually quite sure that everyone would like to see it.
I'm in 2 minds about posting a link on the thread, as not sure if I want indexed here on DP. I can PM to you if you wish.
I've 2 writers now. Anyone else interested? Average 4k unique's /day, 85% US visitors Site in question
