I've been marketing on the internet for a little while, but never go around to completely doing it. Now that school's out and I have 3 months dedicated to internet marketing I want to make $10,000 a month marketing with "free methods" I originally had a blog for this, but it's not working right, so I guessed digitalpoint forums was the best place for it. But yeah I am going to be posting daily on my "free method's marketing" for the complete summer. So here's a quick recap Promote clicbank affiliate products Promote them using free methods, article marketing specifically Posting on ezinearticles, more specificially Post my earnings on a daily basis By doing this, I can achieve my goals of making $10,000 a month by the end of this summer. I will be starting tomorrow!
Goodluck man, article marketing can be really powerful if done right, how many articles are you planning to right per day?? Are you using any other methods ?? Are you going to focus on one product or diversify your campaign?? To earn $10,000/month I would guess you're planning on marketing more than one product...
I think this is fully achievable if you can dedicate whole 3 months completely to affiliate marketing. Write 10 per day and you will have 900 by the end of the summer. If u can get at least 1 sale for every 3 articles (totally possible) thats 300 sales. Just be prepared that the sales will slow down a lot after u stop writing. Articles can bring quick traffic but getting long term traffic from them is harder. Even if they rank well they sometimes dissapear from google all of a sudden or they are pushed out by competition articles.
Today was just a preparation day for the whole summer, got to start off right. So I made a list of 300 article titles that I want to write, and designed all of the landing pages I need for my article marketing campaign. it took a long while, probably the whole day because I was doing it while watching television. I agree, If i stop writing articles, my sales will go down, that's why after the summer, I plan on investing much of the money I have made into Pay per click. Clickbank is not going to be my only thing either, I'm also going to promote products with paydotcom as well, and see how that goes. Well, that's the Day 1 recap, not much submitting, but alot was still accomplished. Thanks guys for staying tuned and keeping up with my journal, you guys are already motivating me, and I hope that I'm giving you some insight as well!
I suggest making a keyword optimised blog. Put it this way, about a year ago I created 2 blogs, each on health niches, only about 20 to 30 articles on each one. It took google 6 months to index them but each one now makes me a steady $200 per month. So why don't you concentrate on writing your own content for your own sites. Forget about the article directories, they deserve a few of your articles but not a ton of them. Articles on directories just don't last long these days, the traffic is gone in now time, I have seen real diminishing returns in the last year or so. Make the investment in your own sites and you won't regret it, I'm currently starting phase II of my own operation.
I have an old blog too hat has started to get consistent traffic and hops. I rely on articles more for just backlinks, getting indexed and such. If I am going to write that much content its going on my own site.
Making $10k a month with articles? You will have to write like 100's of articles DAILY and yeah, as you said, if you stop, your sales will go down.
I understand what you guys are saying: You guys are saying, if you're going to write all that content, then write it on your own blog. I'm thinking about incorporating that into my marketing scheme later. I mean if I submit articles on ezinearticles, why can't I just rewrite them for my own blog. Why can't I do both? It's not like my articles become poison and I can't rewrite them. Here's a strategy. Write an article for ezinearticles, see which one ranks pretty good or does pretty good, and repost them on your blog. I have started a couple of blogs, but I need ezinearticles to give me a bit of faster cash before I start my long term blog income plan. Either way, if I work hard, I'll see income, right?
You'll have to work like a horse, not just hard, to see that kind of income with such method Best of luck though. Desire to succeed (+action) is what you need
Well it is possible but with articles it sounds like a TON of work, and well it's not actually a 'Free' methods for getting traffic, this is a very common misconception among noobs, article marketing is not 100% free, it cost you time, a lot of time and well time is money you could easily spend those xxx hours working in something else making money in a different way so yes if you can design or create something or whatever you do and you charge $20 per hour, if you write 5 articles per hour you're actually 'Paying' $4 per article, consider that as well. What I'd do is work a bit in something else save some money and while I do that learn as much as you can about PPC, it takes a lot of time an money to master PPC but it is definitely more possible to earn that much per month with PPC once you dominate it.
I don't plan to end my career with article marketing, it's just to jump start all of the projects that I want to do. I type somewhat fast, so I think it's possible, and I take everything step-by-step. If I make a lot of money, then i'll have enough money to afford the tools I need to buy domain names, create blogs, create blogging pages, and to money to use automated promotional tools. As far as PPC, I can't wait to start doing it, this is what the summer's going to be spent doing, slowing transitioning from earning tons of money through article marketing and eventually going into PPC. BTW, I have been writing some articles, today, but not as many as I would want to; I'm going to give you guys a day 2 recap before I go to sleep tonight, thanks for all your support! Oh yeah, and good news, my blog is back up as well! So I'm going to be posting on these forums and on the blog as well!
Okay guys, this is not going to be a common theme, i'm going to update regularly, but I've been dealing with clickbank and ezinearticles to make sure everything's going alright. I had to pack up and move to the dorms from my house, here I will stay over the summer, and you'll see my workload increase dramatically because I'll have the ability to increase the amount of hours I work, my schedule, and I'll be able to download at free will. So I'm pretty excited. I have had 1 sale yesterday, and 1 sale today based on pasts campaigns, but to be honest, I haven't written and submitted an article for about 2 months, so the fact I'm making sales from those past campaigns says alot, this time I'll be able to truly focus.
I finally got my blog up and running, from now on, all my journal updates are going to be made in the link listed below, chrisgenius.com! Okay guys, I'm still working hard, no sales yet from this campaign, but I'm finally able to work as hard as I want to now with little restraint or limits!
I've been updating my blog regular, chrisgenius.com that is - and with pure bum marketing, I'm starting to see some consistent sales, so hopefully my profit margin will increase with the more work I'm putting in And I plan on putting in an unlimited amount of work!
