My Method To $400+ Weekly With Free Articles & Fiverr

[blogbd1]

Nope. Articlesbase is usually very good with their approval timing. Sometimes they approve within a few hours, sometimes a full day, but usually no later than that.

I have just checked and its approved in articlesbase, its my first article there and took around 9 hours. That not bad I think.


Thanks

you said you create 3-4 articles for EACH product and choose 2-3 products every day which mean you create about 10-12 articles a day? I dont think you can find that many clickbank products...so sometimes you create similar articles telling story promoting the same product? FOr instance that "The Last Traffic Secret" you make the similar articles every day about it?

I dont know any other niche but do you think other than biz opp and weight loss can perform well in articlesbase and similar article directories? Weight loss I know did well some time ago but I dont know if it still...also, you said forex dont work there though so you know anything else that dont work well?

Yes, 10-12 articles each day, if not more. You make it sound like this is actually hard.. In reality it only takes me around 4-5 solid hours to knock out 20-30 articles. People at McDonalds are working 8 hour days for dog-sh*t, so I know you can do this.

As I said before, I only write 3-4 articles max for one product. After that I leave the product alone and move to the next. Trust me, there are thousands upon thousands of products in the CB marketplace, enough to keep all of us busy for years to come.

As for your question about which niche to use. All I can say is test, and then test some more. There really isn't "one good niche and one bad".. The success of your campaign will come down to you, and the effort/quality you put in.

You can sell anything if you put your mind to it. Just go to the CB marketplace and you'll see all the different niche categories. Pick one and go to town.

Enough speculating. The only way to make money is to take a chance, and then dust yourself off and do it again.

Fantastic to see you're back tvision!

I went back to the other thread and made a post retracting any
concern about your integrity...glad you're throwing any naysayers
into the backwash and continuing your info :congrats: :boink:
or in the case of a "misunderstanding", getting that clarified

you're a good guy appreciate the thread

ty if I can ask you a question whose answer has eluded me.....

when it comes to keyword searches, or rather key "phrase" searches
on google, I always assumed "quotes" around the phrase
were necessary to get exacting results...

I understand that when you don't use quotes your
results are a hodgepodge of SERPs ?

(if you're trying to determine the use of specific "phrasing"
how then does SERPs without the use of quotes help?)

(whenever I read anything on this point, writers never seem
to mention the inclusion of "quotes" around a search phrase?
which is one of the reasons I've always been confused about this point)

can you shed some light on my confusion? :rain:

thanks tvision.............................

Hey there. You double posted just to let you know

And yes, It's hard to get blamed for something that you had nothing to do with. On a good note, I have officially won all Paypal disputes as I knew I would. Nothing talks louder than solid proof.

As to your question, I've actually never used quotes in my searches. And yet the articles always reach the top spots for the phrases used in the titles. I try not to get too technical, but if something works, then it just does. I think the fact that the article site has such a high authority, any quoting is usually pointless. Again, this is just my experience through article marketing.

Hey there, I don't see any posts from you, did you private message me?

 

[hyc2010]

Hi there Tyler,

No, I don't have enough posts and cannot even PM you I posted some questions for you yesterday but got an automatic message saying something like it has to go through moderator. I still don't see my post approved it, yet.

Thank you for sharing your great experience with us. Really appreciate it. I have some questions for you.


1. You write 3-4 articles (product review) for one product. Do you post them all on the same articlebase site or do you post on different sites, one article per site? If I remember correctly, you only focus on articlebase and Goarticles, right?


2. About how many words per article? What are the "core elements" in your product review articles? Do you have some sort of templates or swipe files to use? Care to share?

3. You don't spin articles but aren't the contents of the 3-4 articles (product review) for one product about the same? Or do you focus on different topics to talk about per review article? What's the purpose to write 3-4 articles for one product review, instead of one product review article?

4. You only use affiliate links in the article body to make money without directing visitors to an opt-in to build list. Is this correct? So the sales would be just one-time without list building. Thoughts? Comments?

5. You mentioned some keywords to target, such as product name + review, etc, etc., Do you target other keywords at all? You said it's very easy to rank high on page 1 for product review keywords. Do you do any SEO and backlinks building work at all?

Thanks Tyler again and look forward to your answers.

All the best!

I will answer your questions as soon as I get a minute, I'm actually working myself at this moment. Go and download the ebook I created for BHW and you'll get a clear view of how I do things. I placed the download link earlier in the thread.

 

[Paper-Boy]

great to see you back.

how many words do you aim for per article?

 

[wokaka]

yeah got same question with hyc...i just noticed your 3-4 reviews about one product all have the same content...how could articlesbase accept them? I thought they only accept unique articles?

 

[fulcanelli]

great to see you back.

how many words do you aim for per article?

I think he does 250 words an article. Whatever the minimum is for the site.

 

[Tvision10]

A basic article of decent quality will be 250-300 words. You don't want to create a 600 word article that will cause the reader to be so bored by the end they don't even click-through to the sales page.

250-300 is just enough space to get the message out and give them just enough info to make them want to take that plunge into the product site to learn more.

I had done a few split tests where a few articles were the same, while others different, and the best advice I can give is to make each article different, but with the same basic ideas. Simply rewrite the articles 3 times and submit to different categories with different titles. Or you can go the other route and write 3 completely different articles, each taking it's own outlook on the product or subject.

Use your common sense and pick the best route you think will propel the reader's into getting you a sale.

good method,can be an idea for me

Okay guys, here's a method I've been using for around 4 months that has not only made me a decent amount of money, but has by far been one of the simplest methods I've used in a while, usually only taking around 5 hours each day.

Everyone knows about article marketing, but as of late I'm seeing a lot of users giving up, and going as far as to calling the method itself "non-working"..

Well, I've been promoting products on CB using only free articles, and no, not through Ezine. Articlesbase is the only one I'm really using, and has accounted for around 80% of my profits. Ezine has grown a bit too spammy, and the approval time for articles can be weeks at a time.

Articlesbase usually gets an article approved within a day or two, and after around 12-15 articles are written, you are then able to write unlimited articles on auto-approve. This is a huge time saver.

At the moment, I am making around $380 each week simply from promoting products through free articles. I also use Fiverr as an extra cash boost, which we will get to later.

Now, on one of my last threads, there were quite a few nay-sayers, but that will come when anyone doesn't find the success with which I have regarding this method. The technique itself DOES work, the question is whether you are implementing it correctly.

And from what I can see, a big chunk of marketers, are doing just that.. Not working the method correctly.

There is no big secret to making this method work. But here's what you need to take into consideration when choosing your product and niche.

Gravity

You may have heard that when looking for a good product to promote, the Gravity is the first thing you want to base your decision on. This is right, but also wrong. A high Gravity will usually mean that the product is selling well, but with a high gravity, also comes higher competition. When looking for products, I will look at several things in making my choice, with the Gravity being last.

These are some very important things I look at when choosing a product to promote:

*The salescopy - Does it contain correctly formed paragraphs, spelling and proper wording?

*Site design - Professional graphics, buttons and logos are a key to whether you'll get a sale.

*Subject matter - Is this something you would buy yourself? Does it tend to a problem many have?

*Bonus packages - Are they of good quality, or are they just a bunch of junk extra ebooks?

*Price of product - Use your common sense. The price can be a deciding factor of a product's success.

*Gravity and Keyword competition - Is it worth your time to promote?
When looking for products to promote, you need to have a good eye.

What Your Going To Do:

- Pick 2-3 products each day

- Write 3-4 quality review articles for each

- Submit - Up the votes for visual appeal to readers

- Promote articles through Twitter, Bookmarking, Fiverr, etc. If you choose.

- Rinse and repeat. (Seriously, it's that simple.)

So basically, I will choose 2-3 good quality products each day, and write 3-4 articles for each product, and no more than that.

You need to start thinking "quality over quantity" rather than the reverse.

When writing these articles, I try to personalize everything. Your not creating a s*les letter. This needs to be an objective review that warms the reader up and softly leads them to clicking over to the product page.

Don't worry about hype, the product page will do this for you. Instead, tell the reader about your personal experience and how this product helped you.

When writing your articles, you want to be the least spammy as possible. Your readers dont want to see a sales copy when they click on your article. Instead, take great care in making sure your article is personable and relative to the topic.

Many people like to flood their articles with affiliate links in the form of anchor texts. I find this yet again, to be a sign of a spammy s*les copy, something a potential buyer will spot miles away. Theres just something about most people, that will cause them to shy away once they find out you are going to profit in any way from a sale they make. So you want to make the article as normal and unsuspecting as possible.

Simply talk about the product, who created it, a little bit about the author, why it's better than other products on the market and how it personally helped you. Once your article is complete, simply place one link at the bottom in the form of something like:

"When it comes to (article topic here), I HIGHLY recommend a wonderful resource called (Anchor Text with affiliate link here) Check it out!"

This will make you come across as a normal person simply supplying a link to the product site out of good nature. You can also place one link at the beginning of the article using the product name as the anchor text.

Now, unlike Ezine, Articlesbase allows you to place affiliate links in the article itself through the form of a url shortener. I Use ShrinkMyLink, and it works like a charm. This will take up less time in that you wont need to create a blog or purchase a domain.

Despite popular belief, direct linking to the product page has worked just fine with me, and commissions are rolling in. This is why the article needs to be of good quality, so that by the time they are done reading it, the only other place they'll want to go is the main product page.

What's the key to really pounding out solid traffic/commissions? - Your Title.

I'll keep this short and sweet, as it's actually pretty simple to do. When it comes to keyword research, this is the time when many marketers get a bit worried. I'm here to tell you that despite what you've heard, your not going to be spending hours on a bunch of technical SEO type stuff to get this done.

It's as simple as going to Google and doing a simple search. What we want, is to find 3 or 4 good quality keyword phrases that competitors aren't targeting. These phrases will consist of the product name, author name, and a few other general search terms. Let's break it down below:

Let's say your doing the product "The Last Traffic Secret", which is written by Kelvin Houghton.

Here are some of the basic keyword phrases I use, and that you should check for in Google:

* The Last Traffic Secret by Kelvin Houghton
* Last Traffic Secret Ecourse
* The Last Traffic Secret - Is It a Scam?
* The Last Traffic Secret Ebook by Kelvin Houghton
* The Last Traffic Secret Ebook Review

The 5 basic titles that I have the most success with are:

"Product Name Ebook Review"
"Product Name by Author Name"
"Product Name + Software"
"Product Name + Ebook"
"Product Name - Is It a Scam?"

Now obviously, you may have to tweak or change these up a bit, but you get the idea. Simply look for exact phrases that buyers would search for, and whether they are being targeted by anyone else. More often then not, they arent. You will be amazed at the amount of keyword phrases that big-time competitors are NOT targeting. Blows my mind.

Many of the articles I submit will hit #1,2,3,4 spots on front page Google within minutes, and they'll stay there. This is where most of your profit will come from, but the article directory itself will also account for many.

One more thing: PRODUCT LAUNCHES

This is where I make a big, big, big part of my profit. Targeting a product that is about to launch can get you over $400 in one day. Simply go to a few big name sellers, sign up through their opt-in on their affiliate page, and wait until they send you word of any new launches.

Write a few good articles, and publish them the day before, or no later than the day OF the launch. This will get you way ahead of the competition and help you rake in commissions like crazy. I did this for one of Rob Benwell's last products and it made me a small fortune, and continues to bring in profit over a month later.

To Top It Off.. I also use Fiverr. I create gigs that I can easily complete, such as SEO work, video testimonials or whatever, and then I'll push a product to the user once they are happy with the gig I did. It's easier then you think, and plus you make money from the gig. I make around $150-200 off Fiverr alone each week. ANY method no matter how small, should be used if it will put more money in your pocket.

That's basically it. Rinse and Repeat. Work on it every day, with a few products each day, 3-4 good articles each, submitted in different categories.

This method does work, in fact every other person I've shown this method to has made money within usually a day or two. Many of these their first commissions ever. It's all about doing the method correctly. Flooding a directory with 30 articles on one product will do nothing but punk you out as a spammer, remember your readers aren't dumb. Quality over quantity.

Here are some tips to sum everything up:

* Don't hesitate to create multiple author accounts on Articlesbase - This will keep you covered in case any one of your accounts were to get disabled for any reason. This can also be used for split testing different niches and products.

* Remember, don't just focus on IM products, as there are many other untapped niches available.

* Don't place any affiliate links within your Articlesbase author box. Simply write an honest sounding description about yourself and where your from. Only place affiliate links within the article body.

* Use other forms of promotion to increase your article traffic and clicks. eg. Youtube, Fiverr, Digg

* Submit articles no later than one day after a new product launch

* Don't over-promote the product, but simply tell a sad personal story that the reader can relate to

* Don't over-complicate things! You will become a better writer with each passing day, and before long will be able to knock out articles within a few minutes apart.

* Don't worry about low view counts, as we will make up for this through our wide range of products

* Tweet each article after publishing as it will add extra views and better ranking in Google

* Use a nice graphic or photo for your author pic - Girls work nice.

* If you do choose to publish articles on a directory that DOESNT allow affiliate links, simply create a free Blogspot blog containing an extended review or testimonial of the product, with a link to the product page at the very top and very bottom of the blog post. This will save you money on a domain also.

* Don't over-complicate things. Simple is safe, just take your time and work every day. You will see sales.

I continue to use this method and my sales are growing each week by around 15-20% - I'll keep you updated with anything new I find that works.

Best Wishes

Hi Tyler,

Thanks for your answering questions promptly. You are an awesome cool dude

Do you use different pen names for different accounts at articlebase? Where to buy the author photos? istcokphoto??

Hi Tyler,

You can choose different pen names, or simply use a proxy and create a few separate accounts.

By the way, if you think this thread is helpful, don't hesitate to give us a rating!

 

[Tvision10]

Do you hide/cloak your affiliate links in the recourse box?

Yes, I use shrinkmylink (dot com) for my affiliate links, as it seems to be one of the only url shorteners that Articlesbase lets through. You could also buy a cheap domain name and redirect if that's your style.

 

[Tvision10]

Buying a domain will cost more, and take more time to set-up, but I've found no difference in simply cloaking my affiliate link. I still get the same amount of sales.

 

[zigzag]

Was just curious how many articles have you written to get to $400 a week? You mentioned you have been doing this for the last 4 months, estimating I would say that's about 1200 articles you have in total? Which I guess isn't bad if your playing the quantity game. I'm not bashing the method or nothing, I know it will work, but realistically about how many of these articles would I need to reach the $400 a week mark?

Thanks
