Confused over "Article marketing"

    Is the idea, that you advertise affiliate products within articles, or you use your article to advertise your website - where affiliate products are advertised?

    In other news, a bird just hit the window.

    You have a wrong concept about article marketing, Let me explain you the right way
    Reader have a problem so he read your article >> Here you give related free information, tips etc >> In resource box you promote your website>> On your website you give a final solution(Affiliate Product). Simple. Isn't it?

    Thanks alot, how do you find problems people are looking for? Through forums, keyword research, or both?

    Thanks again I am also following your journal.

    Forums are good to find questions or find out what people buy.

    It is a little more hard work than just putting a link in an article. I have just started a blog that will show you how to make a couple of hundred or more if you work harder, every week. Don't get me wrong i am not one of these people on here that CLAIMS to make thousands a week.

    You have a few posts and sound like you just began, so my advice is probably helpful. If you aren't too good at building sites, and you just want to make your first few sales, you can use a redirect on a domain that you purchase.

    This will allow you to simply put the domain name you buy in the article and it will redirect the person straight to the sales page of the Clickbank product you are promoting. You will be credited for the commission if the person buys.

    You would set up this redirection by entering a cpanel system with your web hosting, and then putting your CB hoplink in the redirection field. You test by simply typing your domain into a browser, and then you should be taken to the sales page of the product your are promoting. To make sure that you will be credited for sales, go to the order page, and look at the bottom of it for affiliate= . If it shows affiliate=none, that means you will not get credited. If it has affiliate=yourCBid, then you will receive commission.

    This method will work and get you moving along making sales very quickly. It is not a good long term business model, but it will help you get your feet wet.

    Keyword research is the best option. Second is Q&A sites and then forums.
    If you want to start with article marketing. I will suggest you to do product research first, then keyword research and then write articles.

    hi guys,

    how many articles can be submitted to eza from free/basic account? 10 articles max?
    i didnt really read eza's TOS, so assuming that article's submissions are limited up to 10 articles max.

    Sorry, you have no more submissions left.
    Current Membership Level: Basic
    Submissions Left: 0
    You have run out of article submissions.
    Your account will be reviewed for an upgrade when all currently submitted articles are reviewed by our editorial staff.

    Fully agree with that. I bought that only to be disappointed later. There are much better options available. If you think that Links from Article Directories alone will help you rank higher, then NO, you are wrong. You need to get links from relevant sites & blogs.

    I know SEO and when I do SEO, I don't waste my time with articles. I think this software is geared more towards people who use articles for affiliate marketing, or people who do use article submissions for SEO.

    I chose to give this product a try because it had a pretty good gravity, good commission, and a decent sales page. With high gravity and and like 80% of sales from affiliates, I figured this product actually sells?

    I never said that its a useless piece of software. I said that there are many better options available.

    And yes, please don't judge a product's quality by its gravity. It has a high gravity probably because most people bought it using their own affiliate link.

    If you have trouble with this...you might be in the wrong market :)

    Example where people have problems: Health, Cures, Remedies, Virus on Computer etc..etc... there is thousands of topics you an write where you will get a VERY targeted audience which looks for a solution for a problem.

    If you've used it, you can already tell that it's a complete waste of time.

    You can submit as many articles as you want, if you don't manage to rank them higher in the search engines, it's just like trying to drive a car without any wheels.

    That type of software can help but not much and certainly will not help you to rank a website/landing page.

    I can go on for hours explaining why it won't work, but I really don't have the time.

    I see some interesting points of view here. Research is always vital for choosing a good niche, after that, you must know how to sell it properly.
