3 Weeks old Blog/$70 daily - ranks 1st of 11 million Google Search Results

[Ivancho]

Hi to all warriors and Happy new Year.

I just started my new blog 3 weeks ago and is already ranking 1st in google of about 11 millions Google Search Results and is already receiving affiliate sales and AdSense clicks.

First I don't want to disclose my niche because their would be many people copying me. The keyword that my website is ranking for receives around 15000-20000 searches per month.

After looking at my analytics I saw that I am receiving more than 300 targeting visitors daily and 67% of the was from BigGoogle. I must say that I am also happy with the current revenue that the site makes. I receive anywhere of between $25-40/daily clickbank commission and around $20 in AdSense. I am pretty happy and this is my 1st blog that have grown so quickly.

Here is what I done:

1st: I got my writer to wrote me 25 articles related to the clickbank product that I am offering via my website and I submitted them to 20 Article Directories including back link to my website in each article. All of my articles was accepted from all the directories.
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.

2nd: I submitted my website to 500 web directories and I could say that help me quite a lot for my search engine rankings. I know from a personal experience that I don't need to submit my website to the directories all in ones.
So I submitted my website to 25-30 directories for the last 20 days.

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.

4th: I submit my website to 10 social bookmarking websites, and again I did submit my website ones per day. That took me total 10 days to complete and in other words 2 Min's of my time on daily basic for 10 days. I did this because I don't want my website to be sand boxed so I thing I done it in the right way.

This is all I done for my blog. I usually check my clickbank account and AdSense at the end of each 2 weeks, But I don't know something told me to do it, and it was for good. I have got in total for the last 12 days - 37 sales and $254.63 in AdSense. That's around $1K in under 3 weeks...

I already got my ROI and I am pretty happy ,couse I know this blog will make me money for the next 5-6 month on autopilot. Other great lesson I learned and it was the following.

When you do somethink with interest and put work in it - you success...

No problem, you are welcome. I am always trying to give everything from me to help other people as well...

[Trieu]

very valuable information here. I will put this in action for my product very soon

[Trieu]

Have you tried social bookmarking your articles as well?

[freudianslip27]

Wow,

Congrats! I certainly appreciate the level of detail you have shared here. I was wondering, did you know this niche was hot beforehand? One of the problems I have is devoting too much to something before I know it can bring in the bucks.

[Lindsay Brynn]

congrats. that's a really awesome job.

[tengallonhat]

Good post and good job Ivancho. For someone that can read between the lines, you have posted a good blueprint for getting a blog off the ground.

[Aron Levin]

Nice work!

Some advice:

Keep building blogs and upload them, man. You never know what's gonna happen with your current site - and if it goes down, you're back to $0.00 / day. (Happened to me lots of times)

With even 2 sites a month you'll end up having 24 sites (with more or less revenue) within a year.

Make sure you keep finding new ways to improve your search results, even if you're #1 at the moment. Often, Google like new sites - so be careful not to drop down to #2.

Good luck!

[James Schramko]

Great work.

I like that you invested in articles and used them multiple ways.

I have a similar system.

If you add MP3 & video syndication and a list builder to that formula you could be sitting on a profit explosion.

[Adam Bshero]

Great post with jam packed information. Quick question... did you submit each article to all the directories, or just 1 to each?

It all depends on how you feel about the whole dup content thing.

Additionally, do you have a list of all the directories you submitted to?

Could you elaborate on this just a little more?

[raynman]

Great info and congrats on your success.

I'm really looking for ways to use article marketing more effectively and this was it. Nice easy to understand guide on how to do it.

[Christian Sawyer]

Do you have a list of the directories you submitted your site to?

Any help is appreciated!

Thanks,
-Christian

[Tony6597]

Very interesting

I remember reading about how web directories were a thing of the past on the WF.
I could be wrong, but do they still hold an important part on the web?

Where did you hire your writer from, Elance.com?

I’ve tried blogs in the past and made no money, the Clickbank products never did seem to convert.

So what did you do different to get your Clickbank products to convert into sales, are you building a list?

Many thanks, Tony.

[Mark Kaye]

This is a good solid plan and a post with great info. Thank you.

Also, to anyone who reads it, you'll notice the key to success was with consistent, daily action. Not a lot, mind you, but a little everyday. Having a plan and sticking to it is the key to success.

[zeppb]

Congrats on your success.

No I have no list and I am not building one. I am offering a free PLR report as well free PLR report from my website, the report have been rewriten and is not completed. But basiclly when poeple get something good which will help them, then they will pay and yes THEY WILL.

Good marketing plan my friend.

Articles can prove powerful and in your case, they are working well.

Keep it up!

[jmorris18]

What are the top 20 article directories - would you mind giving us a list - is this possible?

Thank you again,

I used this list, http://www.jackhumphrey.com/fridaytr...irectory-list/

I belive this is the TOp 20 article directories so far. Thanks for the comments...

[united99]

What a great post.
this forum is the best. If you're prepared to do the digging, you can find answers to pretty much any IM question. There are so many different ways to make a quid on the web that it sometimes gets very overwhelming.
I recently put up a blog at myaltautofuel dot net which I'm kinda thinking to either add more content, monetize further with adsense and drive traffic to clickbank offers, or just sell it on.
Your post has given me inspiration to plough on and make this thing start paying for me.

[Nathan Hangen]

Makes me want to quit writing articles for others and start using them for my own sites. Nice job man.

[tommygadget]

Ivancho,

A note to you, but don't get discouraged by what I am about to say. I have around 200 niche sites and with Google, they followed a very similar pattern: put site up, get links and articles for long tail keywords, reach 1st page on Google and often MSN. 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!

I totattly disagree with you. I have got a site which I havent touched in the last 1 and a half years and the site still makes good revenue and ranks in google first page. I have never touched the site since I done the promotion and I can say no you dont need to post content everyday to stay top at google ... But thanks.

Well we are not familiar with your niche, but Google does prefer new content and if you do not update content, the site will go under eventually. Now, this is not true in every case and this may be the reason for your previous site staying prominent.

In general it is very well known that Google prefers new content. Plain and simple.

OK, please read my post again. I did not say you need to post every day to stay up in the rankings. I also did not say that your site will definitely follow this pattern. I said that based on many, many, many niche sites that I have built, this pattern is fairly common and DON'T get discouraged if it does, just keep adding content and links and your site will rise again IF it fell in the first place. Hope this clears up my position, and I hope your site stays up there.

Take that site and duplicate it ten times. I am serious. Use different IPs and mix up the titles and order of posting. Trust me, it works.

Duds, i.e. sites that don't perform well. Commonly used to describe bombs that did not explode, duds, ammunition that did not fire, etc.

Thanks Tom. You are great. anyway lets talk to the thread subject...

Sure,

For niche blogs you can add Create text-to-speech podcast from RSS feed with Odiogo for iPod, MP3 player and mobile phone which will automatically convert your posts into voice. Another option is read articles yourself into audacity and then broadcast the recording to your blog using podpress.

Once you have MP3 you can submit your MP3 o podcasting syndication places and you will get more traffic from people who want to broadcast your channel.

For Video, make a video about the product (you can screen cast the sales letter, turn the articles into powerpoint or make a slideshow with music). Once the video is made load it to multiple sites using heyspread, tubemogul, video post robot, senuke or traffic geyser.

Use the Google Video one in your post (because it has no ad) and then have the blog URL in all the other videos. The video sharing sites will allow other people to embed your watermarlked videos on other niche sites.

(I also take the RSS feeds and submit them to RSS feed Directory - Feedage.com).

Next add a lightbox script to your blog from Aweber that darkens the page out when someone visits. Make sur3e to offer an incentive for people to get your 'free report' or whatever.

I have been doing this on niche blogs and also my own Internet Marketing Blog.

The alexa graphs go nuts and you will avoid suffering TommyGadgets rank drop if you syndicate wide and often.

Plus you are reaching people on multiple media levels.
