      If you do a search for "bum marketing by Travis Sago" in google he explains the basics of article marketing very well. thats where I first started with it and still use many of his methods and it has always worked very for me.

    Article marketing is cool and all but check out guest blogging, it's powerful stuff. At least from what I can see anyway.

    Hi,

    Here are a few stats from dedicated article marketers:

    1,537 Live Articles
    5,532,792 Views
    157 Niches

    If you search Tim online, you'll find he's a very inspirational article marketer. He PROVES it can be done, even in a restrictive occupation like the military, even if you're working more than full time!

    His views per article are crazy. Tim is certainly an article marketing superstar and success story.

    Connie Green has done really well doing just ONE ARTICLE a day:

    1,513 Live Articles 586,222 Views

    Connie proves that consistency is what it's all about.

    Sean Mize is the King of Ezinearticles.com. He has an article marketing
    coaching program that is very successful.

    My own article marketing efforts are productive although my views aren't as high as Tim's! He really hits some home runs.

    What you'll find is that there's a very big difference in views per article for different niches and marketers.

    There are many approaches and styles to article marketing.

    Dean Shainin and many others on this forum all have great results and
    very distinctive methods and styles, MOST of which they teach
    inexpensively in WSO's.

    This is one of the best methods for beginning marketers to get started
    who are willing to expend effort and not just look for a get-rich-quick
    opportunity.

    It's not very sexy or exciting. It usually doesn't produce fast profits,
    although I believe there are a few methods that do.

    In the WSO's you'll see a lot of people with different methods who have
    done very well.

    Some only use ezinearticles.com. Some use a variety of directories.
    Some spin. Some don't. Some backlink. Some don't. Some target
    only one kw phrase. Some target many.

    Best wishes,

    Marlon

    I have written a number of articles, and some have gotten over 10k+ views.

    It's all depends how "hot" the topic is your writing about really, and if you can get it ranked in the top of Google.

    One thing you should first do is keyword research. See what keywords people are searching for related to your product and see how many monthly searches they get as well.

    Then target your article around 1 - 2 keywords. Put them in your title and article body. Submit this article to ezinearticles.com as they seem to rank the best in Google.

    Then if you really want to crank it up and get your article high up for keywords write another article or blog post and link back to your first article. If you build up a small amount of back links to your first original article it will start to rank. Just make sure your links going back to your article use the keyword.

    If you have a little bit of money to invest you can also write a press release and link back to your article. You can buy a press release allowing links for as little as $20.

    If they actually said "every article can generate at least 600 views and 2% conversion", there are three possibilities...

    1. They meant long-term averages.

    2. They are not really 'experts'

    3. They are fibbing to you to get you to buy something.

    Article marketing is a long-term proposition. Some of your articles, assuming they're good to start with, will do very, very well. Others, of equal quality, will fall flat and do nothing. Usually, you won't know which is which until the numbers are in.

    It's the nature of the beast.

    I've come to doing my keyword research from the same perspective as the people I'm targeting. More than anything else, that means a plain search with no double quotes or other fancy modifiers.

    Most of the time, you don't need to worry about maximum results. You need to worry about the competition for the first page, when searched without quotes. That's what your target audience will see. For some niches and products, you can extend that to the first two or three pages.

    That's where you need to be, so if you can't get there, it doesn't matter how many other sites are trying. You just need to beat out one of the top ten, with top five being even better.

    If your result says there are 5,000,000 results, who cares? Even if someone had the patience to go through all the results returned, Google only returns 1,000 results for any particular search.

    Your real competition is the ten organic results on the first page, 8-10 Adwords ads, the related search suggestions, the search boxes and the back button.

    One thing I always try to keep in mind...

    The whole object of the game is not to win search positions. It's to win the attention of a human being trying to fill a need or desire.

      It took me ages to finally accept this, despite the fact my own common sense told me right from the beginning.

      Once you get it into your head that you are competing against the sites ranking for particular keywords, and not against the sites targeting them, the world gets a whole less complicated.

        Here's a little bit of what I've learned from a few years of article marketing experience. The average article views I used to get over time was about 500 views. However, even today in certain niches it can be tough to get just 200 article views organically.

        In some niches with the proper keyword research you can get an average of 3,000 to 10,000 organic views and in some cases you can get well over 100,000 views doing things the right way.

        The reason I mention organic is simply because there are other tactics to increase article views that are basically gray hat...

        Here is one organic strategy that I use: To keep things simple, I use long tail keywords that are usually 4-8 words long, with much less potential traffic but also much less competition with the goal of getting into EzineArticles most viewed which entails first getting in Googles top 3 organic search results. Hence, why the proper keyword research is so vital to your success before even starting to write an article.

        Consequently, it would be easier for you to get ranked for these keywords using individual articles optimized for that particular keyword at about 1% to 2% keyword density.

        Long tail keywords are usually so much more targeted than the high demand high supply primary keywords that you want to rank for. This can really help conversions because the keyword can be so much more targeted to the exact product and or service you are marketing...

        That's the basic simple overview of one strategy I've used for success...

          Right on.

          And the recent rash of posters on WF lately contributing to the many "Article Marketing is NOT dead" threads on the board, need to read this comment, and they need to read it very carefully.

          It's not 2007.

          Article marketing, and massive "views-per-article", are long long gone.

          Unless you're an expert at the many-colored-hats of SEO, you are NOT going to take bum marketing principals, apply a few twists, add some brute force through cheap outsourcing, and watch your views climb.

          Don't believe the nonsense being put out there by people with LIVE WSOs in their sigs (hint hint) that relate to article marketing when they tell you how wonderful and great and super-duper it's doing.

          Now that said, Alexa, tpw, Zeus, Dean, TimG, Stephen W, and many others ARE preaching the RIGHT advice about how to create revenue from article marketing TODAY, that does work.

          And it's about syndication (use the search), distributing your articles to Ezine owners (use the search), and generally creating extremely high-quality articles that OTHER PEOPLE WOULD LIKE TO READ.

          That point can't be emphasized enough.

          Article Marketing IS absolutely dead for the newbie 100% if they don't understand that the market has changed, and that hundreds of garbage articles spammed into the directories is NOT going to sell the click at the bottom of the piece.

          Period.
