    Looking for some feed back here.

    I've had my 25 articles all submitted to articlebase on Sept. 6th. None of the articles have received any views yet. My question is, does it take a few days for articles at articlebase to index and get views? I've always used EZA and never had this problem.

    As for today, I wrote 2 more press releases and 2 more articles, submitted to EZA and I now have 35 pending articles in EZA, they are taking a really long time.

    No sales to report today, traffic was way down for whatever reason, but I am pushing forward with more articles, hubpages, social bookmarking and whatever it takes to get this to $100 daily.

    indexing is as much luck as it is authority based my new auto blog has been getting crawled so fast that its barely posted b4 its up on google... good times.

    Use social bookmarking, forum sigs, directory submissions (rss feeds of your author link) and you should see a good boost of improvement... i forgot about author rss submissions actually... think ill start doing that tomorro.
    I made 8 articles and submitted them... now the 6 day wait starts -.-

    So today I tried to do my first squidoo lens on Forex Trading and squidoo no longer allows that topic. What other options do I have here to build pages for link banks to articles and my site. I am guessing vox?

    I've completed 4 articles today and yesterday had another sale.

    Monday's update:

    I am forced to change my FX product over to another that has a higher gravity. I've been sending good traffic and targeted with lower conversion rates on a product that rebills.

    I'll switch to a product that pays more like $80 or $90 a sale with the higher gravity.

    Over the weekend I setup onlywire for social bookmarking, wrote 4 articles and 2 press releases as well as a hubpage and 2 vox posts for the vox blog.

    This week I will buy another 50 articles to have outsourced in the FX niche and continue to write my own, about 2 or 3 a day.

    No sales to report over the weekend. So far my total is 6 sales, however over the weekend I sent a very good amount of traffic, well good compared to last week as my traffic is increasing. Normally I am converting about 1 in 19 hops, over the weekend I sent 54 hops with 0 conversions not to mention some of my sales the rebills aren't going through, again another reason I am switching to a FX product that pays up front. The last time I tested a FX product that paid about $80 a sale it converted at about 1 in 25 hops.

    Plan for the week:

    1. Outsource 50 articles.
    2. Re-write current articles and post to Go articles and Articlebase
    3. Bookmark all articles
    4. Write 2-3 new articles per day myself
    5. Research high ranking articles and create huppages and vox blogs linking back.
    6. Hope I make a sale :)

    Yes, Landing page then onto the publishers page, 1 in 19 conversion rate. I had a $150 product on the page about a year ago for another forex product and it converted at and around 1 in 30.

    I have a pretty good handle on what keywords convert for this niche, it's just a matter of cranking out the articles then keeping them in the search engines.

    I've been tarding forex for 4 years now. I do okay, but it's more like a hobby and side money and only small accounts 5k to 10k. Sure someday I'll have half a million of my own money to trade and that's probably all I'll do is trade for myself for a living. Affiliate marketing and all this is just a vehicle to get there.

    I thought GoArticles & ArticleBase allowed duplicate articles? I know Buzzle doesn't...

    well done you're doing well. Just keep going and you'll hit your target.

    Update:

    Been getting about 30-50 unique visitors daily from Articles, traffic dropped a lot today, only 25 uniques.

    I was testing a different FX product, the highest gravity one of course and ran about 50 hops to it with no conversions. So now I am back to the other FX product that was converting to at least some sales.

    I've been averaging about 2-3 articles daily and have been doing some vox posts along with press releases and a few hub pages here and there.

    I also just ordered 50 more articles for the FX niche, outsourced them.

    It's very hard to keep the article stuff going and I have to be honest at times it seems like your working for nothing. I spend probably 2-3 hours a day just writing articles, building back links, making a post on my Vox blog and all that I do. I need to see some more sales soon to remain motivated.

    Hopefully in the next few days we'll get the sales more consistent.

    Have you tried a side niche? It helps to keep your mind from going crazy on your main niche.

    No I haven't tried anything on the side. I know the FX niche converts for sure, I've had lots of success with it in PPC, but due to an account ban I am forced to write articles now and do SEO.

    EZA traffic just seems to gradually go away after you bust your hump writing all those articles.

    Keep going man, and learn from your mistakes, I advice you not to publish any new article any way unless EZA approved it first..
