Default Is this normal??

I have about 4 unique articles written and approved with ezine articles. (3 -4 still pending approval)

I included the link to my landing page in all of them and they are live right now. When I was doing a re-direct to my offer, I was getting a stable 2 - 3 clicks a day.

Now its nothing. With at least a few live articles I expected to have at least some clicks but I have 0 clicks on my offers and I checked google analytics and my site is still at 56 visits (most or all of them from me because of testing)

What went wrong?
Is this normal? should I keep cranking out as many articles as possible? or go back to re-directing to my offer?

Thanks

Alex,

Probably what is happening to you is the impact of the G Dance & Update. Articles get indexed by G and other SEs slower than before.

I would like to suggest that you turn all your articles into video using this simple to use Article To Video tool.

Or you can make teasers or convert summaries of your articles into video using that tool. Some people just don't like to hear their own voice. The tool has several voices for Voice-Over.

Then submit them all to Video Channels. This will be very good for backlinks, get indexed fast and raise your G ranking as well as drive traffic. 4 in 1 advantage. Works all the time.

In the video channel for each video description, make sure you place 2 links to your blog or articles. One at the top and another at the bottom or middle of the description.

At Youtube, the links can only be active if you place http:// in front of the domain. Something like this : http://yourdomain.com/yourarticle.

And be sure to fill up the tags box with your relevant keywords. This is very important to drive traffic from Video Channels user searches. Not more than 8 keywords or they might ban you for spam.

What I'm suggesting here is a way to salvage valuable assets you have already but impacted by G dance and Panda. And then drive traffic with an alternative Video Method.

This means = Drive traffic with less work from old stuff.

Hope this helps.

Hi,

This is an example how I use the tool for a Non-Profit Organization. The dashboard also provide many background music.


Also notice the stats. Most of the traffic comes from Facebook. I just announced it once and they came to listen. That's the only time I ever promoted the video article.

So a combination of recycling articles to Video and Facebook might help you in gaining more traffic to your landing pages.

I used to do well with article marketing several months ago. What I used to do was to create articles around specific keywords, generate backlinks, get organic traffic and send the visitors to a lead capturing page. Then, I had an email series promoting Clickbank products (wasn't in the CPA business yet ).

Based on my experience, just creating random articles isn't a good strategy, your focus should be to use them to get organic traffic.

Several marketers have reported that some of their ezine articles/lenses/hubs went down in ranking. Some even say that it was a manual hammer from Google but I prefer not to believe that You have to embrace that algorithms change every now and then more significantly and some sites go up, other go down. Relax, take a day off and try a new approach.
