First Clickbank Sale

    Got my first CB sale overnight. I'm brand new to affiliate marketing except for BANS and last week I setup 3 blogger blogs to promote specific CB products. I wrote only 4 articles so far...2 for one product (the one with the sale) and 2 other articles and have only submitted to Ezinearticles so far. I've just started on link building and social bookmarking/networking.

    I'm pretty happy with the results and will continue writing articles.

    I do have a question though. Until I make some more money and buy a domain, can I leave the blogger blog with only 2 posts on it and use it as a landing page OR would you continue to write articles on the blog to make it a viable blog? Any thoughts?

    Thanks for all your help everyone.

    HI

    Congrats.... I have a site that also sells a clickbank product... and when I was writing and submitting around 3-5 articles to directories each week the site made money then, I stopped writing articles for a month and the sales drop to almost nothing, so I wrote another 2 articles the other day and submitted them to article directories yesterday and it made 2 sales today... $39 commission a pop. :) so I will be doing this more often..

    Thx
    Tom

    You can have as many posts as you want 1 or 10,0000
    it really doesnt matter, also congrats!

    When you start making real cash you can pay some to write
    articles for you. Say it costs $4.00 per article and you
    make a sale of $20.00 you will make $16.00 profit.

    BUM Marketing is a very good way to get Clickbank sales, I do prefer other stuff like pay-per-click or email offers to my lists my I think I'll try articles one of these days. Congratulations man! ;)

    The first sale is always one of the best.

    Definitely agree with paying others to write articles for you, but I have a slightly different take on it.

    Having built up a solid trust with a variety of active publishers, I've been able to ask for $25 per article. This lets me take on, say 5 articles for $125, which I can redistribute to my own writers.

    I'll give them $10 per article and do a little editing when I get the pieces back.

    That's $75 without having to do any hard hours. I then spend $50 on 5 more articles for my own projects and keep the extra $25 as spare change.

    By the end of the cycle, I've earned $25 and 5 high quality articles. Repeat every week for a few months and you can quickly expand!

    Thats excellent well if your traffic is converting well then why not leave just the 2 articles on the site however i would advise writing some more articles, it would definitely help.

    I agree with that theory too - find mulitple sources of income but pay someone to do the entries and the writings... :)

    I had my first sale a few days ago...the day after I had another...then 2 days went by..no sales..then today..ANOTHER sale. It's only a total of around 275 but dammit I'm working harder now that ever. And it's all because of advice I've read on this forum. You guys rock.

    Thanks.
