INTERNET MARKETING

Dear Warriors,

Need your input and sharing. This week, I sold 2 clickbank after 55 hops. All products about pet care. I write an article and posted to my site. Prior to write a review I researched the keywords. I didn't optimize the article - I didn't know why people bought the product with my simple review.

Because of this good prospect, I plan to:
1. Rent a writer to provide 30-90 articles then I will publish those articles to EZA. I will register Premium membership to speed up the approval process at EZA.
2. I will optimize all the submitted articles so they all will be at page 1 Google.
3. I will redirect the resource box to my autoresponder. I need to catch their email.
4. I have provided the 'give away' products (ebook) to be downloaded once they completed their registration.

My investment should be:
1. Premium membership of EZA.
2. Articles outsources 30-90 articles.
3. Optimization my articles with backlinks.

I need input from senior warriors about my plan above. Can I generate good margin (ROI) with my plan? Need your advice if I am doing wrong steps.

Anyway thank to your sharing.

Regards,
Mozesteven

Yup! In fact, thats what I have been doing lately. However, I have been spinning the original article into 4 versions. I then add one version to my blog, one to EZA and one to GoArticles. The fourth one is a back-up for now, but may get submitted to ArticlesDashboard soon. Some of these I have even been using PLR content. It has really sped up the process for me . . . Now to just speed up the EZA approval

Your plan sounds solid! Good Luck

Thanks

Yes, this is VERY good - looks like you have done your keyword research well and stumbled on a goldmine.

Test out PPC with the keyword as well and build a list - refering them back to your website.

Yes, I do spare more time to keywords research. I still stay away from PPC prior to have good result of my SEOs.

I already provide 'signed-up' page and 'giving away' products. Once subscribers completed their registration, they will be give free ebook then redirected to my site.

Thank Chris.

That's a good plan, don't forget to test your titles and resource boxes for maximum conversions.

After your visitors subscribe to your list to get the freebie be sure to implement an upsell.

Also in regards to the optimization of your articles I suggest you buy an article submitter for backlinks purposes.

Dan.

Thanks

DanTheSeoGuy, thank to your advice about backlinks.

And I think doing SEO for article directory copies of articles you buy is really a very poor second-best, compared with what you could do instead, which is to dump all those articles on your own site first, do the SEO for your own site, build up your own site (instead of a directory you don't own!) and thereby acquire an appreciating asset which you own yourself.

Just my perspective.

Another thread which you may find helpful reading, for these questions, is this one.

And if you want still more, there's also this one and this one.

And well done on your first two sales, and good luck!

Hi AlexaSmith, very long advice here. Its worth for me and yes, I will post the articles to my site in 1st then spin it to submit to ezine.

Richard, yes I just read her advice only in this topic. I will search all her advice at warriorforum.

Or you could be on to something hot, in which case move as quickly as you can and send all the traffic you can. Even paid traffic would be profitable if that rate keeps up. But that would be really unusual for an affiliate at CB.

Good luck with all that, but it sounds like I need it more than you do.

Hi Lloyd, my 1st sale happen when my number of hops are: 90, then my 2nd sale happen at 55 hops. As it is my 1st experience - I don't know if this sale is just luck.

But - I will try Alexa advice to 1) catch up email from searchers and 2) delivering 'giving away' product which I've prepared.

Anyway, thank to you all about this thread.

If you would like to share another tips about how to optimize the articles will be great for newbie.

Regards,
Mozesteven

For all the reasons explained by so many successful professional article marketers here, it would be a great missed opportunity to submit them to EZA without publishing and getting them indexed yourself first. I think you'll find that thread a very, very useful read. Not only on this question, but on many others you've mentioned, and some others you'll have in future, too. Very highly recommended indeed.

To me, it seems awfully expensive for what it is. I find that all of mine get published within 24 hours without it. (What's the rush?).

Just make sure that the copies you optimize and do all the SEO for are the ones on your own site, not the EZA copies! EZA will love your sending all that traffic to their site for them, because they make a living from their AdSense income, of course, but wouldn't you rather have all that traffic visiting your site first, rather than getting only what's left of it after it visits EZA? And this one isn't just an "opportunity-cost mistake": it can actually damage your business, in the long run, because you'll end up with a website that can never outrank an article directory for any of its own keywords (not a pleasant fate).

Via a squeeze-page, on your own site, you mean? Yes, certainly you need to catch their email.

This is clearly a good idea.

It's one option (and one I tried myself, when I first started, until abandoning it - like many others - with the realisation that the only backlinks it can ever get you are non-context-relevant, PR-0 backlinks, and that one appropriate contenxt-relevant blog comment with a backlink can be worth many hundreds or even thousands of times as much link-juice!).

I agree with Alexa. I don't think article submitters are worth the time. Manual link building works wonders if you know what you're doing.

Hi Nate, thank to stop by here - I also agree that manual link building works wonders. But for the huge competition we have to consider the automated tools of links building.

This here about the plan of article marketing arsenals as sources of traffics to generate sales. Warrior, named: TimG also has good advice about articles marketing. Hopefully he reads this thread

so that he can give advice re: step by step of my plan above.

Since you're planning to submit 30 - 90 articles anyway, when you hit 10 submitted, you'll be upgraded to Basic Plus. Your approval time can be cut down to 3 days.

Add another 25 articles on top of that, you earn platinum status, so the approval process is even shorter.

Again, it's up to you, but do you want to spend the extra money on the membership when you're planning to submit a lot of articles anyway?

Genie, I already Basic Plus at EZA with more 50 articles and more than 15,000 viewed. My CTR at EZA was 9%. Why still basic plus, my English not good enough.

I need to think do I need the Premium membership.

Andrea, I like your words "I do right now is fairly the same" ... Could you please share the results ... and money you've got?

Thank pals to all of your advice and sharing. Please senior to give your advice and valued share ...
