[mack5]

Congratulations on your success. I'll try and write 5-10 articles a day and outsource some writing as well, just to speed up the output. Your results are very encouraging.

I cannot post links yet, so just go to youtube and search for:
The Challenge 2010: Module 2/Day 3 - Free Writing

Thanks for the awesome tip Duc

Ed starts the video out with:

Welcome to what is perhaps THE most important lesson in the entire challenge... It is going to literally rock & change your world...

he introduces you to a technique called free writing, which is a technique using a timer with an alarm and continuously writing for a period of 10 minutes, with no editing.

Anyone here have feedback on using this technique? Searching WF for "Accidental Genius" turns up zip... Some of the comments below the Youtube video are pretty interesting...

The method of writing in Accidental Genius has 6 basic tenets, such as "Try Easy," and "Go with the Thought," and numerous specific techniques such as "Open Up Words," and "Hold a Paper Conversation".

(some googling finds more on this @challenge dot co)

Question,

You said that you made sales the very first day you submitted the articles. Is it even possible?

I mean, it takes a ton of time for ezine articles to approve your articles (about a week) so how were you able to get your articles on ezine articles and then get traffic to them and then make $120 the very first day.

I am not doubting your or anything but it's not adding up.

Hopefully you will solve my dilemma here

EDIT: God Damn this thread is old. Why are people still keeping it alive (.......thinks about his own post...... ok my bad )

[Net Assasin]

I just love hearing success stories like this, way to go dude and thanks for sharing :-)

With premium membership your articles are approved within minutes. I published my first 6 articles on Ezine last night and had my first sale for $53 in less than 24 hours.

I'm a believer.

My answer: You can call them little Flying Spaghetti Monsters instead of articles, I don't care that much as long as they keep making me money!

Touche-hahahahaha

Most of us could stand to put a few more of those "little Flying Spaghetti Monsters" out into cyberland!

Damn you are lucky. It takes around 12+ hours for me to get the articles approved and I have a premium membership ???

[Thatgirl]

weird.....

[gskesavan]

EZA yet to approve my articles that I submitted 3 days back. Annoying!

Congrats mate on your success of making sales Really inspiring. Old school article marketing still works and you are the proof.

I wish you more success

[JAIDEEP2959]

I don't think anyone realized it yet, but this thread is about a year and a half old LOL.

Since the topic has been pulled up, is the original thread author still around? If so, how are things going a year down the road? Still with Clickbank or have you branched out into other markets.

I like Clickbank, but I find it a lot easier to refer sales on physical products (like Amazon) instead of virtual ones.

[Internet Rookie]

WOW!.....I'm glad I found this thread. A real gold mine of info....and

really motivational as well. Love this story and hope you continue to

succeed.


Regards....

[japam]

you said ezine also give a good conversion point for your sales, it's ok to put your CB affiliate link in the article that you post there?

Very true. It would be interesting to see if he kept up with this or what he did with it since. This is a case of when bringing up an old thread is worthwhile.

[Haphiza]

Wow! This is a real success story. Nice of you to share your story with everyone. Keep going.

Good luck

Old thread but if it can help people, no quarrels.

[H.Miller]

Congrats! Stick with it. Your income will keep growing and growing and growing.

[showmegreen]

hi talinn,my question is you just put these articles you wrote on those sites,like ezine etc then wait the money coming? no seo work?

[CDaeda]

I tried to promote links with EzineArticles. The article submittal was rejected plus I had to waite a week for this response. The the following reason:

Hi Charles,
Thank you for your reply.
Please re-review section 1.i of our editorial guidelines found here:
Editorial Guidelines For Submitting Quality Articles To EzineArticles dot com
Our platform does not promote 'pay to click' programs. I suggest
removing the article.
Thank you,
Scott


What is the best approach to avoid rejection of articles in which you are obviously trying to promote affiliate links? Advice is appreciated. Such things are holding me back in my article submittal success efforts.

[nelaffiliate]

Congrats on your success!
This is how I started out too. I have about 400 original articles out there. Some are doing better than others, but they all give me good backlinks and bring traffic to my sites. The open secret is that making money takes focus and hard work.

Hello Talinn,

great success!
please tell me Newbie, does you send your traffic from your article writing, direct only to your pre sell page, or you make seo, so that this traffic goes to your blog?

What ist the best place in a blog to set a pre sell page? In the "Home" page?
or in "about me" page ?

Think, if more Blog User come to my pre sell page who is on my Blog, then more conversion rates i make.

So what ist the best place to set my pre sell page?

best wishes
marco005

It'd be great for Talinn to drop in on his old thread (hint: more than a year old!) and comment on how he's been doing with his article marketing since his original post, especially with the recent changes at Ezinearticles.
