Day 2 Quick update then another one later Just working on my landing page, going to do some testing on a few and see which converts the best. Also going to be submitting 3 articles to Ezine today and another 7 to some blogs in the same niche. My aim is to have my site indexed and receiving a few hits from Google before over the weekend. And to have made my first sale by Monday
Nice to see updates, I'm still on "day 1" for about 3 days, getting a grasp of clickbank and landing pages
Ok so i know have 5 articles at ezine and i have been getting a few blog posts on some relevant niche blogs out So in total around 10 articles linking back to my site using 3 different anchor texts. Going to do a bit of blog commenting and high PR pages and these are indexed a lot so should get my site indexed. 1 HOP so far
That is excellent news. Could you explain to the readers what factors you have taken into consideration when it came to picking a niche? was it popularity, gravity or maybe just the percentage since you know SEO you are confident that the niche is not relevant since you believe that you can sell from within any niche (within reason of course)
ok well when choosing my first niche i decided to look at a few things Target Audience Are they likely to try and refund, do they buy stuff online and would they be interested in the product Product i stayed away from anything to popular, went very niche, got a low grav and seems to have a nice sales pitch. Can i sell it Can i rank for the keywords i want to, how else can i drive traffic to it. Thats pretty much it People spend to much time deciding what there going to do Its best just to go out and try it. Quick update i now have 10 articles pending in ezine so thats my limit for now but il submit more tomorrow through another account. Had 4 hops, these were from articles i have had published on blogs I now have a squidoo lens, hubpage, blogspot, wordpress and a few other ones all linking to my page.
I look forward to following along with you, and your short deadline is inspiring! I've never heard the term "keyword sniping" and am glad to learn something new.
Hi Jen, I sent you payment yesterday for your article writing service and have PM'd you but no reply - sorry to hijack your thread a bit but please can you confirm you received payment and the work is under way??
hi jhardy, yep payment received, i did send you a pm but you know what DP is like at times. Day 3 site in now indexed been building a few more backlinks have 10 hops now but no sales, not worried as yet though
Jenny, why do you submit more than 1 article to the same directory pointing to the same page? Isnt anything more than 1 backlink per site a waste?
not quite sure what you mean You can have multiple links from the same site and they count as each one
Yes you can but after your first link from the same site all of the others are worth very little if anyhting at all. i.e sitewide links are no better then just 1 link. Or am I wrong?
She's not using articles to build backlinks for search engine rankings, she's using the articles to send traffic to the landing page directly via text link.
Well im using ezine to bring traffic but also doing a lot of link building through blog posts etc.. Ok so an hour ago i made my first sale not bad for day 3 Total of 19 hops for it. Total commission $15.00
