Ezine Articles

[hyperlite]

Ezine Articles doesn't accept affiliate links on its site. How do you guys get around this? Do you buy a domain and redirect it for every product you promote? Can you use free redirects like tinyurl?

Ezine is a such a pain in the ass to work with!

I just send them to my landing pages. No redirect or anything like that.

So landing pages are common? I thought that most people directly promoted their hoplinks. I guess they must be since ezinearticles seems to be the most popular promotion method...

I buy a cheap .info domain for every product or sometimes link them with my squidoo landing pages and no you cannot use tinyurl free redirects

EZA lets you redirect from the top level domain. It's in the TOS.

I hate ezine... do people actually find your article out of the thousands of others on the same topic?

People don't go to EZA to find your articles, they find them in the serps.

You hate EZA?

I can't think of an easier way to get a new site indexed in 24 hours WH style.

1 more thing. At the risk of sounding like an EZA salesman, I've gotten 11k visits from 1 article I submitted there. 11k clicks on 15k views. For free. Free.

What's to hate about that?

How do you manage to bypass the approval process? That in itself takes more than 24 hours.

As far as getting your article approved, you could setup a link in the bio box that directs to a page with content, then once you are approved, have that link redirect to an affiliate link.

Also, something to consider. The referrer of ezine articles quality bot will look like this, so you could also cloak it:

Premium membership. No bypass required.

No need, they allow redirects from top level domain. And the OP is asking this question in the Clickbank section - no need to mask your traffic source with CB. They don't give a shit where you send your traffic from.

Well... that's not entirely true. I have had CB security contact me due to spamming.. in which i BS'd my way out of getting shut down. But I am referring to the article that points to a content page. If it points to something that doesn't pass their standards, they will disapprove your article. It happened to me.. I added some content and everything went through fine.

That's a different story. But I get your point, better safe than sorry. Just trying to point out to the OP that I've used that method for years and never had a problem.

Hi all:
I use links in the resource box linking to my site and landing page / post. Approval for article is 3-4 days, in my experience.

 

[hyperlite]

Ok so EZA is definately the way to go then huh? I've been submitting to other directories but not seeing much results. Do you continually get traffic from these articles or is it a surge of traffic that fades out? I'm looking for a method that I can setup and let it run.

Sorry for all the newbie questions but I've been hammering away at this and I'm not getting any sales.

you should try to target your audience better, for example. If you write about tips you are drawing visitors that are interested in free information. If write product reviews, you are drawing people are willing to spend money

Great advice. I appreciate it.

Now I wish I had thought of that before I created a bunch of linkwheels and submitted a bunch of articles...
