Using wikiHow to your advantage

Kevin Williams · 10-20-2009, 08:10 PM

Alright, I don't know how many of you actually use wikiHow, but not enough. I use it all the time and get about 200 visitors per day to affiliate products because of them (and CPA offers) - that doesn't include the people that stick at my landing pages. You guys should really start using it a bit more. It's great for a single backlink, but also to actually drive traffic.

WikiHow pages are almost all ranked high on Google somewhere. Just go to wikiHow and search for a keyword near yours and look through the results. Edit one of the entries to say they can "get a $10,000 scholarship by going here:" or "learn more about getting scholarships here:" and link to a product.

On smaller wiki pages you don't have to worry about it being reversed and you can count on constant traffic. Bigger pages it might get reversed - still not likely if pointing to an article. Either way it's a great source of traffic most people aren't using.

Fantastic idea!

When you say link to other pages can you insert affiliate links aswell?...

Looks like they went largely unscathed by the recent Google Panda Farmer Algorithm change, as well. Most top tier sites were hit...hard. (HubPages, Suite101, Associated Content, etc)

How do you suggest putting the links in?

I.e. bit.ly and then html or what?

blend · 04-26-2011, 07:30 AM

I'm not sure WikiHow will work?...

I don't understand how you have the option to edit someones post?...

Also, WikiHow states that they are not a link farm and will not except this!

Any Reviews?..
