$200/day Article Marketing Strategy (maybe)
Sometime last week, I was sitting on the computer (it was warm) and I was staring at a picture of the car that I plan on buying when I have about $40,000 sitting around. Then I thought to myself; in order to have $40,000 sitting around, I must MAKE $40,000!!! And to MAKE $40,000, I must have a solid plan and I must work my butt off... So I came up with a solid plan and I am now working my butt off
I want to be pulling in at least $200 per day within 3 months and I believe that I will be seeing much much larger amounts within 6 months if I stick to this plan. Tell me what you think about the plan, and feel free to go out and do it yourself!
Website
- Get a domain and shared hosting, the domain will be like $5 and the hosting will be $5-$15 per month. This is the only cost involved in this strategy.
- Set up Wordpress on the site. Personally, I integrated Wordpress into my existing site layout because I wanted an original theme, but I really don't expect anyone else to do that because it's a pain in the butt and you have to be familiar with code. Find a good theme and you should be fine. (if you do want to integrate, PM me and I'll walk you through it)
Traffic
- Write. Alot. This is the backbone of this strategy. My daily goal is 5 QUALITY and ORIGINAL articles per day. This takes a lot of time, but in the end it will be worth it. I am writing about pretty much anything that comes to my head and separating subjects via categories on the Wordpress blog, but if you can write 5 articles everyday about one specific subject, then more power to you. 5 articles per day is 150 articles in a month. That can convert into some serious traffic. Get a good article submitter (I recommend article submission helper) that can submit your articles to multiple directories all at onceSimply put: Write 5 original articles per day, post them on the blog, and then submit to directories.
- Get a Yahoo ID if you don't already have one and head on over to Yahoo Answers and try to answer 5 questions everyday and make sure that you leave the link to your website as a source. As Google indexes these answers they can become a good traffic source.
- Turn your best articles into scripts and read them out loud from a powerpoint to make quick videos. Also, you can just record yourself (face included, not just voice) and present the article in that manner to add a more personal touch.
Now that you've got the traffic, it's time to get paid!
- Sign-up with Aweber or some other autoresponder service and place a static email opt-in form on your website. Write a report over something and offer it as an incentive to get people to opt-in. Monetize the list by pitching digital products AFTER you have provided your list with real value. Treat your list better then you'd like to be treated.
- Sign-up with a CPA network and place relevant CPA ads after blog posts.
- Do weekly or monthly amazon or clickbank product reviews on your blog.
- Place a few adsense ads on your site as icing on the cake
Fin.
That's the strategy in a nutshell. I could write a page or more for each bullet point but reading all of that would make your eyeballs fall out so I will spare you the pain.
Tell me what you think.
