Thanks a lot for posting all of that information. Would you mind sharing some stats with us? Specifically I'd very interested to know:

# unique visitors per day
# hops per day (ie, 'conversion' from your review)
sales/hop, or final conversion rate.

Thanks!

We bookmarked our articles which are 100 to 15 sites. thats 1500.

I dont get it too, you got 100 articles that you submit to 25 directories (or 23 that you are sure it's published). That's 2300 articles. You bookmark what so, one of the 23 versions?

I'm curious, i am learning social bookmarking at the moment so
Good luck for the future man, continue to work and you will be rich

[GFox]

Great job, Ivan! Now you and your GF can afford a one week vacation next time - you have both earned it, literally. Thanks for sharing and much continued success!

[actionplanbiz]

can you still post the same article in multiple article directories?

is this still effective?

To be honest I don't see a problem with that. You can and that is what I have done with my articles.

[aboutalhah]

Awesome job Ivancho and thanks for sharing.

All the best,

[avery123]

Sounds like a lot of work...but all of it paid off...Awesome...
I bet if you would added some solo ads to ezines you would have
got a greater amount of traffic faster...I loved your case study...

[Hamza El Bouni]

* Niche one has over 6 000 000 competition
* Niche two has over 2 500 000 competition

Hi, well congrats first !! you are so inspiring man !

i have a question if you don't mind ... did the amount of compitition you said your niche have is whe you search between quotes "" or just the normal results ? if it was the normal results can you tell us pleas how much compitition there is between quotes "" in both niches ...

Thanks

Edit :

sry but after i submited my reply an other quetion poped in into my minde, you said that you'v done everything in 14 days, after that did you just waited for the whoel 2 months till you saw results or you keep doing something ?

[Ray Erdmann]

Great work Ivan! Goes to show that with a little investment and the right approach, it doesn't take much to start seeing results!

would like some advice on the best way of going about social bookmarking sites. Do you suggest unique logins/user names for each site, or just sticking w/one generic one across the board?


Thanks,


Ray

[JaniG]

Well done buddy

[redrossero]

Great to hear that you have such results. I have a question though anout blog commenting. Do you post comments in blogs related for your niche only, are they only do-follow? I get very difficult to find do-follow blogs related to my niche and most of them are low page rank.

[mikemcmillan]

Neatooo! Sounds like a good plan. Glad it worked for you. I'm sure you've motivated a good many people here with your material--thanks!

[Eric Boo]

Didn't know it's possible to get articles for as low as $3.

Where can I find people to do that?

[seriousmny]

I copied the instructions down into a Word document and printed this out. I am taping it up on my wall in front of my computer. This is just want I need to keep my momentum going. You are also blessed to have a lady to support you in your work. I hope you share some of that cash with her... or maybe a "ring" :-)

[melanied]

Congrats!

Most people would have gotten bored and given up. Tenacity is key!

Keep it up!

[SteveSch]

Hi Ivancho,

Thank you for sharing this story. Congratulations. That's inspiration for sure. I need to get going faster.

Please tell us - how did you monetize the sites? CPA, adsense, your own products?

Thanks again for the story. Another restless night for sure. LOL

Steve

[MrDay]

Thanks for that inspirational story! I have saved this thread for future reference and it's good to know that great skills and diligence eventually payoff, Big Time.

cheers!

Well we use a total of 5 unique usernames for all our submissions. But I don't see any problem if you are using just 1.

[chewie49]

What kind of video you created? Did you just narrated the articles? Did you use a still image?

Looking forward to your response.

[Ivancho]

Looking forward to your response.

Well they was simple videos.

Putting a background image, a song on the beggining then for the articles I used a voice over and at the end of each video they were promoting my website ...

[chewie49]

So you basically read the article out loud, right?

[Jenb]

Hard work pays off, Oh...if only it wasn't so damn hard!!

[raul28]

Whoo, lot of work. You can pay $50 and all of this can be done for you. You can build next site in that time.

[JT0713]

wow~! congrats for your great results!!

thanx for sharin. bookmarkd this page already...lol

[Marhelper]

Great job and thanks for sharing.

I see that you used review sites as the vehicle but what type of products were you promoting, IE: CB, CJ, etc... ?

[Dennis-White]

Thats a great job and well layed out system , keep it up and only expand more on it

[Bruce_Richards]

Well done!!
Now you can live together with your gf- like normal people!

Phew... That's good to hear, I thought there was some new breed of super human arising, still 1500 bookmarks manually is still quite an achievement, Well Done !

Thanks for the response Ivan! I had heard conflicting stories regarding one account over many bookmarking sites...I'll use my one lone account on a few of the bigger sites to get an idea as to the speed of getting a site to page 1 of Google and if needed, will expand and try multiple accounts such as yourself.


To your continued success!

[bryemidas]

"You can't make money and excuses at the same time..." yep hard work is definately part of it! congrats...

[alexanderberson]

Very interesting. Keep on doing what you doing. As long as it works....its all good.

[julianyc]

Ivan, congratulations to you. I'm wondering if you'd be willing to share whether the competition for your niches were in quotation marks, and what the exact monthly searches are on each of your keywords?

Best of luck to you!

Thats the kind of thing that really doesnt matter though - if you stop focusing on numbers then you'll find things start happening. This is a big mistake that beginners continually make.

[WhamSoft]

Good reading, thanks for the advice. Did'nt somebody say this was easy?

Just kidding, half a months work in creating something for life gets my vote everytime.

[babarapho]

Very great post. Real work + dedication= success. So keep it up

marketers.

p.s - I just want to say that English is not my first language but I will try my best.

Let's start.

Since 2008 I have tried to figure out how article marketing works and how to become a 5 figures
per month earner. Really this was my goal but I never follow it. Back at October Last year I build a
blog and manage it to get it to $100/day mark within only 3 weeks. But then I sold that website
and I forgot article marketing once again.

-- - - - Until August this year, when I was at vacation for 3 days with my GF and we had conversation with her
about how are we gona live together - like normal people ( I am talking anywhere between $1-3k month ) - This is what I
called normal people in my country - most of them will call them rich.

Anyway after we got back from that 3 day vacation we decided we will do a reasearch and put 2-3 review sites that will
promote other people products. And here is What we have done under 3 days.


We spent around $200 To get 2 super looking review websites and 15 Articles in Total - Unique content + I payed $10 per article.
Some of you will say: Why Did you spent over $10 per article when you can get your articles for less than $3 each - well the answer is
I want to make money so I have to spent money and get quality content.


After we got my review websites up, we got our writer and asked her to write us other batch of 100 articles that we will promote or review sites with them.
We payed a tottal of $800 for that but we got other batch of 10 articles as a bonus and posted them in my review sites.
So each of our review site now has - 2 product reviews + a total of 8 related articles to my niche.

After two months time working on my new sites - We manage to get both of them on the front page of google. The first one is also ranking in the 1st position and the second on is 5th position in google for the main
keyword.

* Niche one has over 6 000 000 competition
* Niche two has over 2 500 000 competition

Since that was happend around the middle of September the 1st website was bringing me over $120+ daily commision. We had few days with over $300 in sales just by one of this sites. The 2nd website
hit google front page and position 1st in the end of September I thing it was 27th. That website makes me anywhere between $50-70 daily.

So here is what I did.

1. We posted each of my promotional articles to over 25 directories. So thats a total of over 2500+ backlinks if all of them was accepting my articles (Well to be honest I got my articles accepted
in 23 article directories )

2. We spent nearly 7 days - 14 hours on PC each day - creating videos with my articles. When I hit the 100 videos done ( Thanks to my GF for helping me on that one ) - I start to submit each of my
video to the TOP 10 video websites. That toke me only 2 days. ( Thanks again for the help of my GF ) And that brings me more than 1000 backlinks to my site.

3. We bookmark every promotional article to the TOP 15 bookmarketing websites and we also bookmarked our inner pages of our review website.

4. We submit our articles to the TOP 5 search engines and we also submitted our review sites and their inner pages.

5. We done RSS feeds submittion.

6. We submit our review websites to over 2000+ directories. This was difficult but it toke us no more than 5 days I gues and we also done other work in that time.

7. This was the last but not the easiest part of our promotion. We build some Blog commenting links to over 100+ PR5 websites. This was diffucult if you ask me.


So all of the above we done it manually - We did't use any softwares or any automation tools ( this is just my opinion - I don't like softwares because I cannot track everything the way I wanted to ).

It toke us 17 days in total to complete all the tasks.

What I learned was - ARTICLE MARKETING ROCKS if you follow your goal and be motivated you will success.

Till today those two websites are making us enough money.

Site one makes us - $150+ daily now
Site two makes us - $80+ daily now

Lets hear your success with article marketing and to the ones who are newbies and thining of stating jus follow yor goal and stay motivated.

Thanks
Ivan Georgiev

Great Ivan, where are you from originally? I would love to hear more about your processes.

[robvegas626]

Good job man. Two quick questions, and I welcome all input here...

- Do you use a bookmarking service like BookMarking Demon? I have that program, and have had difficulties with it. I'd love a recommendation on the best bookmarking program out there right now.

- What RSS submission software are you folks using? I had been using RSS Announcer, but it suddenly quit working. I'm looking for something better and more powerful...

Keep up the good work!

[Marcel Hartmann]

Great stuff. I remember your thread ages ago about your $100-a-day blog. Your plans involve hard work, and clearly it pays off.

[slma88]

Ivanco,

Interesting to know the competing pages in google is with or without quotes. There are a lot of differences.

[Ivancho]

I don't know why people come and asking every time for:

"I want to know ur competition in quotes and without ?"

Whats the point ? - People that are interested to buy products don't search with quotes!

[Vaan]

HI Ivanco,
Interesting thread, but for a lazy guy like me, I can't follow your techniques..

I don't know, I just too lazy to take action..

[Wade Watson]

Let us know if you've found a way to make a living in Internet marketing being lazy. We'd all like to hear that. All my experience and observation says that guys like Ivan with a good work ethic are about the only ones who have a decent chance. Otherwise, I hear McDonald's is hiring.

Marketers look for competition in quotes because the phrase in quotes is your real competition - the sites that are actually optimized for that particular phrase.

I did PM you with a question about the compitition in quotes, and the point is we wana know the actual compitition in your keywords

cuz as a marketer the normal search results is useless, with quotes is really what metters,

[Business&SelfDevelopment]

Great story but I think outsourcing makes life easier although nothing compares to doing it the hard way to learn. Well done.

When it comes to article writing I think we are all procrastinators. Just outsource them. It makes life so much easier and saves you hours no, days of hard work.

[Success2020]

Ivancho Nice strategies...

[Rod Cortez]

Amazing what FOCUSED hard work can accomplish....way to go!

[AJD101]

Man that is some work ethic. I have taken your approach and am now systematically trying to do your numbers, if only I had a girlfriend who was willing to help. For the directory submissions did you have to do lots of reciprocal linking?
