Clickbank + Article Marketing Case Study

Idea - Write articles targeting long tail keywords, post them on free article sites then blast them.
I got the idea from this thread http://www.blackhatworld.com/blackh...not-dead-easy-free-1-000-per-month-proof.html

Why - I have a lot of free time at my day job so I may as well try to make some extra money while I am getting paid

Plan - Find long tail keywords using long tail pro that relate to clickbank products, write articles that are 500 to 1200 words, post it on an article site using a redirected url for the aff link, blast with GSA.

Software - Long tail pro and GSA

I am going to be posting on Articlebase first but will be testing other sites down the road.  I know this wont make me rich but it is something to pass time at work and even if it makes no money I will have a nice collection of articles I can use for other projects.

I will be posting all profit and traffic results publicly in this thread, feel free to ask any questions or give an suggestions.

Day 1 results - Wrote 1 550 word article in the relationship niche and posted to Articlebase. I plan to start building links tomorrow during football and write more articles.

Sounds interesting !Good luck with your journey

Good luck dude

1 550 words.. That's pretty good start. Actually, I think the combination CB + articles has to work REALLY well. Even when I havent tried it yet, I believe that the traditional YT + CB method is way too saturated so its much harder to achieve success.

I wish you good luck. And my little suggestion - make another article which you will be backlinking more seriously than just blasting the shit out. You will see whats better.

Have a nice day

bookmarked this thread
because i not luck with youtube

Sounds quite interesting. I have bookmarked and am ready for future updates!

Today I wrote 1 550 word article article. My next article will start to be a little bit longer and I might try to use a different style of writing. I will also start building links in the morning, I am still looking to see what vps will be best.

I have been writing articles too slowly and plan to massively increase the amount I write in the next week.

Articles - 2
Links - 0
Income - $0

The hard part is link building, It's great if you share your link building strangery

Duuude! It's like the same idea I've just came up with! It feels like you posted this thread on behalf of me! LOL

I assume if you find a keyword which is being searched 200 times a month and KC is somewhere around 20, it's not that hard to get it to the 1st page of G.

With this low search volume I would think I could do 1 sale a month per article

Math: 20 long tail articles x 1 sale per month (30-40$) = 600-800$. Which would be super awesome for a newbie like me!

However, I'm thinking to use Hubpages for this idea instead of Articlebase. Although I'm not sure why. Maybe because I used Hubpages before and it's design looks more attractive. Plus, it's Alexa ranking is higher.

Is there any difference at all if I use Hubpages or Articlebase? If there's please somebody explain why!

Thank you!

I will follow this tread.. All the best.. looking forward for further posts from you

I am thinking about doing this too for the same reasons in the OP. But I was thinking of just using my SB AA list instead because I don't have GSA.

Subbed to the thread.

Im sure you will gain sucess, just keep going at it

I have had some success with clickbank but not with this method.. so definitely a good idea ..i know other's who have made money with this method

If you keep putting out good 500 words articles you are sure to get success

You might want to make one main article 1000 words or so on your main blog you own and link to that as well from your other articles ...so all related links going back to one source as well + affiliate link and you benefiting from that as well.

You will get sale if customer goes either link and building page rank at the same time

GOOD LUCK !!
