Hi Warriors,
I am just wondering aloud if there are marketers who only use articles to drive traffic to their offers.
I have been working for the last one year for a couple of Clickbank markters providing them with quality promotional content and I just though i would use the content my self to make the money. Am I in the write channel?

    If you put it on a blog and then web.2 sites and article
    directories pointing back to your blog you will have
    a more leveraged business.

    A nice big blog will rank well and generate you the ability
    to capture names then add paid traffic.

      Sean Mize uses articles as his main method to get sales for his own products (and some affiliate programs). He is top writer at ezinearticles. I think articles could work for clickbank but you probably would want to have them join your list first. Other marketers will send articles to their blog where they can read additional articles and get to know the writer a bit as a person. If you run a list, then that is critical to so you don't just sound like a used salesman but get to know people on your list and their needs.

          His training is about using article marketing in conjunction with your own product line but he also does put in links for Marlon's affiliate program (and maybe other people's too) in his e-mails and has won various affiliate contests . (He spoke about winning a mac computer that he still uses from an affiiate contest ).

    If you're a writer, yes, presumably.

    It depends what you mean by "their offers".

    If you mean "to their hoplinks", i.e. direct-linking without pre-selling and without any attempt to build a list, then there are almost no successful ones, really.

    Selling Clickbank products is all about two things:-

    (i) Effective pre-selling, and ...

    (ii) Building lists and relationships with the people on them.

    You need your own website to do both of these.

    Even arch-advocates of "direct-linking" don't usually recommend it for Clickbank sales.

    On the other hand, if you mean "to your opt-in offer on your own site", then yes, there are huge numbers of marketers making a very good living from selling Clickbank products this way (and I'm one of them).

    Like you (perhaps?) I got into affiliate marketing through being a writer, and by deciding that I'd earn a lot more, in the long run, by "being my own customer" than I could by writing for others. Writing skills really are valuable in this regard, but of course there's also a huge and complicated learning-curve (especially where Clickbank marketing is concerned), comprising all sorts of other aspects of the business, ahead of you. Good luck!

    This is what I am wondering. If you write an article and someone reads it and clicks on the link in your signatue they really souldn't know that it i a clickbank product, amazon product, your own product, a signup form for a list or anything. If you write an article and have a good title / headline in your signature that brings you to (your choosen dstination) and the person at your destinatin wants your offer then you win.

    So my question is, why not write your articles, spin them and just have them to to a page randomizer script that will present a different offer every time and see what one converts moe.

    Just a thought.

      You can split test these or multi-variate
      test these on your own site and use tracking
      links to see which ones convert.

      Because you can neither learn anything useful nor make any money to speak of that way. Try it yourself (as so many others have done) and see. These are products which people typically buy because of the relationship they have with the person promoting them.

      "Which ones convert" is not an objective reality in any way.

      It depends entirely on who's selling them and how.

      And this is the point.
