hey guys! I'm kind of a noob in all this affiliating buisness, and I'm too broke right now to risk my money on ppc so I wrote this lens on squidoo.com : http://www.squidoo.com/top-bodybuilding-ebooks-guides I think that this article is well written in both readers and seo measures, now the problem is that I get no traffic.... can anyone give me some good advice? is this article method is worth somthing anyway? is there anyone that made some money writing articles with hop links?
Squidoo is competitive with many influencing lenses re 'friends' et al. You're better off submitting to ezinearticles, and buying a domain for 2.99 (.info if you can't afford .com), and forward your domain to your hoplink or to a landing page, use that domain in your articles. Ezine is great - I wish I had more time to article market because it does prove profitable (only if you keep writing). I have a few articles out there that generated $400-$600 to date EACH - however most sales come in the first few days (if your article is well written and viewed a lot that is). Even then - only a small percentage of your articles will get good clickthroughs, article marketing is talked about a lot and there is a great thread going on right now in this section you should read... Best, Norb.
see, I'v already posted this article on few bodybuilding forums but the admin took it off and called me a spammer.. it was really insulting! I'm not a spammer, I'm just trying to earn a few bucks! so what should I do?
A press release would be better and then writing articles and submitting them to the ezinearticles is the best option.
Article marketing is the way to go and register a .info domain to start with. You wil own that piece of the domain. Put some good unique and useful content on the site and see how it goes.
