congrats on your success.

can you tell us more about your keyword research and more specifically about keyword placement in the articles. did you give specific keyword insertion and frequency instructions to your writer?

can you also tell us more about your sales process. what kind of sales page do you have? do you collect email list? do you an auto responder with a sales pitch? do you work the list for selling related products?

[schumer182]

Thaks for the post and information man.

Thanks again

[appsrus]

good work and thanks for laying it all out for us

[fxmmorale]

Wow,

That is awesome. You could have kept that information all to yourself, but you decided to provide all the goodies.



Can't wait to build some more blogs.



To your continued success,

This is GREAT info for newbies like myself! I too have a blog with a couple of written articles but should probably do more! Not sure if someone asked this already but to my understanding you hired someone to write your articles? Was this just a close friend or did you actually go online and find someone who would be willing to do it(if you dont mind me asking)? I think you have supplied us withvery useful information and look forward to applying some of these tactics!

Hi Ivancho,

Congratulations on your success! What a great post!

Your information is easy to follow and understand. You could be charging for this information....very thoughtful of you to share for free. I wish you continued success in all your endeavors.

Blessings,

Hello Ivancho,

thanks very much for sharing your success (and all the wonderfull people who added their tips to this thread). Your success story (the 2nd I read today) just gives me hope, that there is really money to be made (and also in short amount of time) if one is persistent in taking massive action. Thanks for this.

I myself find it very hard to do keyword research and I really would like to have someone give me a step by step approach to this. Every ebook I read about it seems to be more concerned with Wordpress-Instalation than with going into detail about keyword-research.

My articles was highly targeting and I received around few thousand views just in the last 2 weeks - This Rocks.

I payed $15 per article but I know it was worth it. The articles were very easily to read and understand and in other words my articles was telling the reader that they need to visit my website and buy the product.


3rd: I got my writer to write me other 5 articles and I went and made 2 squidoo lenses. Again my articles was basically telling the visitor why they should buy this product and how it will help them. I only include 3 backlinks to my website in each lenses. Every webmaster knows whats the power of squidoo and how much google loves it.

Would you mind sharing the name or any other information of the writer that you selected for these articles?
Great post by the way!
Thx,

This method works great with long tail keywords. Although, ranking for good long tail keywords getting harder everyday, but with few links just pointing to the landing page, will boost it for years. And this is because most marketers who target long tail keys, don't normally build links for them.

[bannor32]

Inspirational story. I must say I'm pretty jealous. Hopefully the ball keeps rolling for you.

I think people need to keep this in mind: google does not find those links the day they are posted.. it can take weeks and even months, if they get found at all.

[Trieu]

I am in the process of trying out your method Ivancho. I've also signed up for Kevin Rileys Traffic lab to help me on the way

[AtticusBaker]

A very excellent thread with a great amount of information. Ivancho, congrats and thanks to everyone else's input, as well. I plan to go forth and attempt to duplicate the cash flow All the best!

[staceman00]

Hey! Great Info, definitely inspiring to someone just starting into IM. Keep us updated!

Three to six weeks later, site totally disappears from the first 100-200 results. Now, you may be upset when the income tanks, but realize that this is a normal process. Google likes fresh content and bumps you up high initially and then sinks you like a rock. With link building and more content, your site will eventually rise back up. I hope this helps. Please let us know how the site is doing after 3 months, I am curious!

TomG.

Well said, hence the need for rewriting articles. As can be seen from the original post, each article cost $15 so when you consider that each one can be rewritten 3 to 5 times at a cost of $5 per rewrite, how could it not make sense?

For others who doubt that content is king..................under two weeks and my site is on page one of all the majot search engines.

Well done OP..............just wish you had the time to teach me all about blogging.....lol.

[damenchoy]

Ooops, the discussion seems to stop here. Anyone has applied similar tactics and got samilar results?

Hi Ivancho! I am curious cause I am not so close with seo, I would like to know how did you count, how much effort you should put in to be on google 1st results???
Sorry if you answer already this in your post!

[Mark McClure]

Ivancho,
Congratulations on your success with this blog.

I'm interested in your response to the following:

1- What's the average article length?

2- Did you give your writer any requirements for keyword density, use of synonyms, LSI content etc? (Or just let them loose on the CB topic and keyword(s)? )

3- Are the articles on your blog added as WP pages or posts?

4- Are you using any graphics (provided by the CB affiliates?) on your blog?

[Ivancho]

No one can tell you this, It all depends on the quality of the the backlinks.

1- 500-700 words

2- Yes I did. I provide him with the keywords and let her study the product ...

3- Posts

4- Yes Just few banners

[damenchoy]

Ivancho,

As discussed in my PM to you, can you elaborate more on your effort:

1) If you submit your site to 30 to 40 directories each day, how much time you have spent on that per day?

2) If you also submit your articles to article directories at the same period of time, what is the additional time you have spent on article submission per day?

3) Adding these two up, can you give us an estimation on total time needed for these two tasks?

The reason I am asking this is because you told me that you do the above two jobs by yourself. So I am a bit curious the time you have spent on these two tasks on each day. This gives me (and hence others) a better idea the amount of time needed to get something done similar to your tactics for a brand new site.

Hope you can advise! Thanks

Damen

[jmac1031]

You can achieve something like that someday. In fact you can achieve something like that today.

Read the OP again and do the same thing. Simple.

[Ian Middleton]

Congratulations on your blog.

Keep up the good work and do not be discouraged if and when you need to change tack.

Ian

[Paul Hooper]

Well done Ivancho, and thanks for all the great advice. It's always positive to see somebody doing well, and sharing their methods. Keep up the good work and I hope you inspire others too.

[SexySarah19]

well done ivancho, impressive work.

i use a similar strategy and have recently subscribed to SEnuke... it saves me so much time, its several tools rolled into one, worth checking out

may i ask what was the entire cost to you for setting up this campaign including outsourcing/article writing,everything?

by the way if you are not submitting your rss feed to feedage.com you are missing out bigtime, great for exposure, getting indexed fast and backlinks

congrats on your success

[mprey]

Just curious - how are you monetizing your site? Adsense? Affiliates? Both? I'm just starting out as well and a bit unsure of how to do this effectively. To me it seems like pulling in traffic is actually the easiest part...

[TokiTover]

Great job man! Thanks for the outline also that can allow someone to take action now.

[Yudha Andika]

That's great mate...congrats !!!! But, I don't have a lot of money to pay writer at $ 15 / article...btw, your details is very complete...
