I Just Ordered 150 articles! Now What to do with them?

[Ernie Lonardo]

I have thought about this obviously lol, but I'm still not 100% sure the best way to leverage these articles. (whether I submit them to my site, or EZA first or on a blog etc)

I'm launching an AUCTION SITE soon focusing on a certain niche and I have ordered 150, 250word articles for a great price.

(basically 1 article for each category and they all represent a long tail keyphrase.

Although I got some ideas, I'd like to hear how YOU would use them for SEO and traffic purposes.

You can also repurpose the articles into slide shows and submit them to YouTube and
other video sharing sites.

Then take the audio and submit those to podcast directories.

Then rewrite the articles and set up several blogs with the articles as posts and have them all pointing back to your main site.

Lots of work, but can bring lots of traffic.

I agree with Jason, don't just use the articles once. With a little creativity you can find a lot of uses for those articles and get a lot more mileage out of them.

[Ernie Lonardo]

Thanks Jason, some great ideas their which I didn't think of


I was thinking of having articles inside each category so I would get traffic directly from the SE's to my aucton site. But maybe that would annoy users?

1. Make sure they're of a quality that you want associated with you, your name and your online business. 2. Create 1 or several minisites or blogs on the different topics. 3, use them to set up some valuable info in an autoresponder series.

I think that's what I'd do.

[Ernie Lonardo]

They cost me only $200 for 150 articles believe it or not.

Just check out Digital Point forums, there are tonnes of cheap article writer on their.

[Rachel Rofe]

Ya, like Jason... I take the articles, put them on EZA, then article directories, put them into PowerPoint slide shows and Traffic Geyser them, submit them to podcast directories, social bookmarking and social networking sites, use them as blog content...

You could also take some articles and "guest blog" with them on authority blogs within your niche.

Sell them (they're original...yes?) for $7 per article.

Easiest $850 you'll ever make.

You can use the Article Marketer website to distribute your articles. All you need do is sign up and test the site using a few articles before committing yourself. I will send you a link if you need one

Although I got some ideas, I'd like to hear how YOU would use them for SEO and traffic purposes.

First I would take say a hand full of those articles and submit to hubpages since hubpages has a difficult time with duplicate content. That would also be a good test to make sure that the one who wrote it for you did not just steal the content and slightly rewrite it a little bit. Then those few you used on hubpages take the content and do a slight rewrite and publish on your site or blog as the main content. This will give you a nice boost in traffic. I would do this with each of the 150 articles. Then after you have the original on hubpages and your site/blog now take them to a article rewriting tool and blast them to all of the other article sites like articlecity and the many others. congradulations you just got 1000 back links in a few short days of work.

[Ernie Lonardo]

LOL...that would be an easy sale, but I won't be selling them. I paid an article writer to write 150 articles because I need them for SEO/traffic

Remove the affiliate link in your signature... My views on the program you are promoting I will keep to myself but no affiliate links are allowed.

What about translating them into Chinese? Big market there! Do they make sense in a Chinese context?

[Ernie Lonardo]

I did translate the term and it does have a chinese translation, I dont think Im ready to do that quite yet, but could be something to consider down the track once the english side of things is established.

I just looked at it too. Very simple. I'll definitely give that one a go.
Thanks Mike

[jon2009]

One thing I noticed Mike is you don't mention using blogs in the strategy.
Any reason for that?

No reason mate! That's just the plan that I follow

Hi

Apart from the suggestions already given about putting them on your own site and submitting to article directories you can also use some/all of them and create a few reports or an ebook with the addition of some extra material.

You can re-write some of them for this purpose or do likewise and sell as PLR packs.

Are they all for one niche or several niches?

Mary

[Ernie Lonardo]

Its an NICHE AUCTION SITE, so not sure how that changes things.

I would set up a site / blog and post them all there, ensuring all your onpage factors are in place for each page. Then i'd look at getting some or all of them rewriten and post them out to maybe the top 10 article directories with the majority going to EZA, and have various anchor text links pointing back to your site with some inner pages.

[jon2009]

Just a stray thought - is this strategy internationally effective ie are there cultural idiosyncrasies that demand different strategies? It's a real stray thought as the only foreign language I learnt was Latin! Not much demand for the Internet in the Roman Empire - grat for chatting up nuns, tho.

[nailzer01]

There is a principle of diversity. Keep backup and use them separately. Blogs are good for increasing your traffic. Try setting standers according your purpose to use then go for EZA.

[Jon Alexander]

spin them into 3000 articles. And use them all over the shop.

[Zack Lim]

Hi Michael,

Thank you for sharing this simple plan.

This system will definitely brings in traffic if all the steps are done.

Best thing is that all the visitors to the website will be targeted as they are already being presell by the content before they come to the website.

Thanks again

Zack

You can auto-post them to your monetized blog as well - not touching it for a year or so...just collecting money! :-)
