    so is anyone here successful with the so-called "bum marketing" techniques? I haven't tried it yet, but it's kind of intriguing to think that I could profit with affiliate sites/links just by writing articles and submitting them to free article and ad directories. has anyone had any success with these techniques? if you have, I'd really like to hear from you, how much work you do every day or week, and if it pays off in the end.

    Major article directories fight against all affiliate links, so you need to create a landing page which you can put the affiliate link(s).

    EzineArticles really works for bum marketing strategies. You need to provide original articles which must be original and written by you. Once you articles get approved by EA staff, you don't need add any backlinks to the articles. Google will be index the articles.

    You need to choose proper keywords for the bum marketing by EzineArticles. A keyword has:
    - under 50,000 results of competition at Google
    - 3 words
    - must has demands - so you can make $

    EzineArticles is the king of bum marketing!!

    Thanks for the reply. I'm going to be starting a marketing campaign like this using Clickbank products while writing articles for EzineArticles and other article directories, as well as the landing page. I probably should submit my articles to all the article directories I can find, right? it seems like the more exposure the better, right? I plan to start tonight because I really need to make some money here...

    So how do you get people to visit your page without the backlinks?

    About a week ago i started my "bum blog" ive build blogs and websites with some starting up money, but now im building my blog without any starting money, all money that i will invest later will be money i made from my blog... so if you want i can post some updates later on so you can check back if it actually works.
