I am new to bum marketing. But I have written a few articles and made some sales in click bank.I have read all about doing back links for original article. What really bothers me is the fact that my article is usually in the second or third page for my chosen key word phrase. And then it vanishes completely.But some continue to stay. So what is the trick? What am I supposed to do to push it to first page instead of letting it vanish?
Yes, you are on the right lines with backlinks - this shows google your article is "respected" by other sites for certain keywords and should be found basically. There are various ways to do this, and there is no guaranteed way to make sure every article ranks - it depends on the internal comepetition within Ezine articles or the article directory you post to - perhaps someone else has done a lot of seo / backlinking to their article on the same topic as you and will display instead of you, and more to do with the external competitiveness of the keyword overall - the number of external websites all trying to rank for this keyword, their page rank, and the work they have done to backlink to their articles / pages etc. There are a few simple ways people generally build backlinks: Simple: forum posting - make posts on relevant forum threads and link in your site with the anhcor keywords you want to rank for. Simple: blog commenting - as above but posting comments on relevant blogs. Simple: basic directory submission - submit to just a few directories which you know will approve your link instantly / soon. Simple: Social bookmarking - submit to a few Dofollow social bookmarking services - possibly the simplest way of getting quick backlinks? (I use Social Marker or Onlywire) More work: If the keywords are competitive or you are losing rank / still not ranking then you can copy your article and post it to other article directories, and in these resource boxes link back to your main article.. you can go further with this by rewriting it a little, submitting it to more article sites, or even using spinning services and submitting to a lot of places like this. Further still you could create posts on sites like Squidoo, hubpages, Blogger etc and link to your main article, or even create whole elaborate "link wheels" of these web2.0 services and link them all to each other in a circle and back to your main article too... this is probably not needed / you are probably better spending your time creating links to your own blogs / sites imo than creating elaborate linking structures / wheels to just get your EZA articles ranked better..
Thank you for taking the time to reply.I will do backlinking as you have explained and report my result.Thanks again.
do a lot of keyword research and before writing an article check out for competition. backlinking for articles is a tedious task. one can write very few articles while if one creates backlinks for these articles at the same time.... i have seen a lot of people doing no backlinking and getting each of their article thousands of reads ... follow some people who are old writers and have greater reads for their articles. also follow ezine guidelines for authors... but remember do not solely rely on ezine because ezine guys are under serious challenges these days...
Umm...............Actually ezine works fine for me.It is the backlinking part that confuses me.I do the onlywire, hubpage stuff. But I still need to do forum posting , blog commenting etc. There is a flower in my country that blooms at night only.It withers when morning comes.I do not want my articles to have short life span or glory. I want them to be on the first page.Everybody does. This is the the essentials for successful bum marketing.
Good page rank (PR) and relevant Backlinks, is the main factor that will help your articles rank better. However, most of my articles that ever have ranked well was do to people linking to them as a reference or resource. I throw my articles onto several "dofollow" social media sites and that's about it. I use the Ezine articles mainly for back-links and exposure for my websites, blogs and lp's, so I really don't put that much time and effort to getting my Ezine Articles ranked higher.
Are there already ezine article or other web 2.0 sites on fist page? Try to build as many links you, if possible use automated software, sites like ezine, goarticles are authority sites, you can build as many link to your articles. Personally i use xrumer and senuke.
I would like to know how you guys will start link building for articles. This is the most confusing part for me! If you write an article for very less competitive keyword, will you go on building links till the article gets on to the first page or build X number of links as soon as article gets published and move on to the next article?
Not like that. You need to continue building links until it gets where you want it to be. Don't burn your hands with Automated shit such as LFE and Xrumer unless you know what you are doing. Automated Software alone won't ever help you get top ranks. SEs are way too smarter than you. No matter how good you are as a spinner, spun articles & duplicate comments will still be easily caught. These should just be one component of your link building efforts, not the only component. Try automated blog commentors to build some quick links but don't overuse them. Most pros will agree that you should use super spammers such as Xrumer, LFE, etc. 2 - 3 levels deeper (if at all) For example: Use them to link to pages that link to the page that links to the page that links to your site or its pages. Hope i was clear enough. Personally, I do not use these. I have had my ezinearticles nuked by rivals using xrumer to get my articles sandboxed. Once a huge xrumer is done on an eza URL, it either vanishes or falls down too low in SERPS. It should just be a part of your ethics to not use these toys to destroy your competition. But the truth is that more and more people are using these for bad purposes. And that is just one thing that's making online business harder for newbies & "single person businesses". Nevertheless, never say die. Keep it going.
I would actually recommend that you don't put TOO MUCH effort into getting your EZA articles ranked - do a bit of work, and move on, just some simple backlinking then on to the next article.. I think it is a much better use of time to focus on building backlinks - quality backlinks - to your own blogs and websites - why build up EZAs rank when you could work on your own, and if you are getting the point where you have the skills to write articles and rank them on EZA then you can make your own mini sites and do it there just the same
When you guys talk about using forums or blogs commenting to backlink your articles, I have yet to see a person posting a comment in a blog and linked their ezinearticles or seen a forum signature with a link to an ezinearticles -- what are some working examples of this?
I'm usually satisfied with CTR of over 25%. I submitted 15 articles to EZA a few days back. I logged on today to check my reports and saw that I had an average of 9% URL clicks on those. I got so many views but just a few clicks. Now imagine you get one fifth of the traffic on your own site, and have a much better CTR (like 60%) to your Affiliate Links. That is the sole reason I don't use EZA a lot these days. They just plainly su*** big time. They don't even allow a bit of promotion in the article body. Another reason why I got a poor CTR was that I posted longer articles (around 500 words each) because shorter ones just seem to rank poor and die out sooner for me.
It is very simple: You need to build backlinks to your ezine articles. You have to find pages that give some juice. Like for example this blog post: Example for PR7 link It is a blog post that has a PageRank of 7 and gives dofollow links. The above example is just that, an example. You have to find your own high PR blog posts that are not spammed like the example.
I second the person whom I think had said don't worry to much about getting too many backlinks to Ezinearticles. You are building up the Ezine, why not choose to use that time to build your site up. Do the Onlywire (it submits for you to the social website and quicker and easier) - Submit to Some directories ( Go Article / etc..) Ping It Then just leave it. Use your time wisly.
I VERY RARELY bother to do this - imo it is just barely worth the time to signup to a forum just to spam my link onto it, and its hardly a good quality link anyway, but generally if I start a new mini site or blog or something then it is something I will do just 2-3 times, just to get a bit of variety in my backlinks - some from articles, some from directories some from web2.0 sites, and just a couple from forums on related topics.
Agree, I would simply write the article and then social bookmark and build a linkwheel and leave it at that.
I am usually satisfied with anything above 30% CTR. Actually I have noticed CTR is dependent on how well crafted your resource box is. And have only one link in the resource box........the one that leads to your money page.I feel pained when my article vanishes after a few days. That really hurts.My articles are republished at other sites as per ezine statistics which is a good thing.But it would be good to see my effort on the first page continuously.Is this the reason people keep writing so many number of articles per day?
I've had the best luck boosting my SERPS by bookmarking my ezinearticles with the free version of onlywire.com (DIGG won't work) and writing articles for other article directories (with do-follow links - like goarticles) that create links back to my ezinearticle in their resource boxes. Simple and effective.
Thank you for your reply.I am already doing onlywire, pinging and hub thing.And a few other directories.
The reason for the vanishing of your articles is not magic. Its not a secret either. Maybe your competitors for your keyword is making better backlinks than you. You can use seospyglass to check up on where does your competitor places their links. Then publish more unique content based on your ready-made artciles using spinners like the one I found at easyarticlespinner.net
