Well, I've been reading about a bunch of people who say that they have the most success with article marketing in the most popular and competitive niches, like health and wealth niches. I've looked at a lot of longtail keywords for them, and they even have high competition. My question is, how do people get their articles to the top in these competitive niches? Also, I read Travis Sagos website how articles keep bringing in money month after month, but then I also read how people that are bringing in $100 a day are writing 20 articles a day because the articles don't stay up for that long. Can someone please explain this? Thanks!
The blog post http://www.theexpertadvice.info/how-to-succeed-in-article-marketing/ answers your question. Let me know if you still have any doubt about Article Marketing.
Many of the things you read about article marketing is outdated. First off this is internet marketing, methods and tactics change per minute, day, year etc... I think you get the point. Bum marketing and article marketing was Huge and much Easier several years ago. It since then has become oversaturated. Much higher volume of people who write articles just like you and me, at the same places and in the same niches. Articles are kind of weird, sometimes you write one and it hits front page almost instantly and stays there for a good while for a decently competitive phrase. Other times its the opposite. Applying proper SEO for the article, mostly the keywords you use and placement will help it rank better. Don't ever choose keywords that have to much competition or you'll never get on the front of the serps. Ways to keep or get your article on the front page of search engines. Well there's many ways but here are some that may help you. Write really well original content, beneficial seo'd articles and then start interlinking with some of your sites, web 2.0 sites or other articles. Build backlinks to them. Your articles aren't just going to be able to stay on the front page or even get on their if you don't get backlinks to it. If it's a really beneficial article then other people may backlink to it as well. Have you ever looked at some of the Ezine articles that are on the front page for good keywords? They well be nicely Page Ranked. But most people nowadays don't spend to much time trying to get their articles ranked higher. The beauty of articles is to get backlinks, traffic and exposure to your landing page or site. For every good original article linked to your site or LP, it will pushing it one step closer to the front page. Isn't that what you really want? I know that's the main reason I use articles. I hope that helped!
"My question is, how do people get their articles to the top in these competitive niches?" They do not need to bring the articles to the top.Just pump out articles with very CATCHY titles and you are sure to get readers through the article directory.But the article needs to be interesting enough so that the reader clicks through the affiliate or comes over to your blog link.There is no need to look for long tail.I mean its not a necessity.That is the beauty behind the article marketing. But if you are not planning to rank the articles then the problem is you need to pump out article every single day or at least once every 2 days.This is sure to bring sales provided the CB product is good.Niche selection is very very important !!!!
