EzineArticles Success Thread

I made a new account about a month ago, I have roughly 12 articles live and for this month my total views is 1,289. Clickthroughs: 340. and 12 times published.

EZA is nothing but crap

I've been procrastinating but based on what I hear from others, eZine is great. I'll start using it this new year!

There's something am missing here, unless you guys are doing something mischievous, manipulative or PPC to drive traffic to your articles then you need to mame me believe that EZA really works, because the thing with this site is you can achove over 200% success promoting and backlinking if you are posting on your blog or website than just doing this with EZA who by the way are making more money than you from their own ad campaigns.

The only thing I know I benefit from EZA is what other people are writing and how to go about mine

Hi.

Some impressive results (CTR) posted by mohamed.hammad and lbwardellsr.

Any way you guys might share some tips with the rests of us. I would love to see some of your article on Ezine.

I wrote 1 article about 2 months back and I'm getting about 100 traffic just from that one article. So I guess it would be a good traffic generation method....

749 articles resulting in 160,758 views. I have about a 27% CTR. Yeah ezinearticles is crap. Haha!

I've had my fair share of success with EA, as well as other article directories.

I don't do a lot of volume but I've my basics right; dig the proper keywords and backlink the hell out of my properties.

We had approx. 8,000 click throughs from EzineArticles.com in 2009. It works.

EzineArticles.com is one of the fastest ways to get to the first page of Google. You can publish an article, link to it from a few other sites and be on page 1 within a week.

I get too little satisfaction from ezine articles

Hi I am trying to use Ezine but my writing skills are lacking but I have six articles published and some made it to Google. I have my wife who is a hr worker and manager write a few articles for a campaign of mine. Five published and three republished not a huge traffic flow but I checked the site of the articles that were republished and it is a university library so that's six edu. high quality backlinks. All for free watch that site climb now.

81 articles live. 13563 views

I have about 800 articles published at EZA. They are one of my main traffic sources. I love them.

Wow, I don't have a 25% click thru and I'd love to hear some tips on titles, article format and resource boxes you guys use to get those sort of figures consistently

I have around 15% click through across aprox 150 articles over 2009. My tips on the following areas would be:

TITLE: Something Controversial - obsviously containing the keyword I want to be found for, but titles like "The Secret To ___" "What They Don't Want You To Know About ___" "___ Are A Con" "____ Don't Work", and of course simple titles like "3 Reasons Why" "How to ____ in 3 Easy Steps" "3 Simple / Instant Ways To ___" work well for me too.

BODY: Conversational style of writing, often using bullet points to break the text up. My conclusion pushes / hints more at my product as having the solution to the problem.

RESOURCE BOX: The main element which increase my click-thru was to use the following style resource box:

Exciting call to action (in bold) keyword link, sentence explaining a little more with another keyword link.

For example:

Download 3 FREE subliminal messaging albums and rewire your mind to gain an effortless advantage towards your law of attraction efforts.

Hope this helps some of you, I'd love any similar feedback from the guys who get the 25% figures though

I have 7 up, an 8th momentarily, 394 views, 295 profile views, and less than 2% click through.

Im pretty fresh to the IM department i dont know, i submitted my articled on 2/10/10 i have 22 article views and click rate is 4.6% i dont know if i would call this a success. This is my first article i have ever submitted. Hopefully my stats will boost with more articles. Only 1 url click :/ but thats ok i dont expect much just starting, i guess one is better than none. Lets me know someone is interested. Im only running adsense and amazon affiliate on my site, which isnt quite complete. But yea that 1 url click lets me know that there are potentials out there.

In 2008 I wrote 4 articles forgot about them and made nearly $400. This year Im taking Ezine a lot more seriously and just started submitting 2 a day. 5 published 5 in review 22.5% click through rate and I think I can get the click through rate up even higher .

Here are my stats. Ezinearticles can bring some good traffic.

Hello,
Lawrence here. I tried to submit a couple of articles, but it took so long.. I had trouble with the content etc.and each time I went back I had to wait a few more days. After about 2 weeks I had to abandon the attempts as I was spending too much time trying to get them approved. May go back and try them again when I haven't anything better to do.

Regards,
Lawrence

I'm seeing success with EZA but I'm interested in gauging what I'm seeing/doing with everyone else.

How long are you seeing it take for an article to get approved w/o a premium/platinum acount? Does it vary by category?

Are you writing the articles to get views? to get backlinks? If both, which is primary?

Thanks Much!!

In my opinion ezinearticles is one of the best out there but it's not my only choice. As well as article directories I also put my articles on my blogs, squidoo, hubpages, scribed, docshare, tumblr etc. I'll spin an article and sometimes I'll have the greatest success with ezine and others I won't. Goarticles, articlebase, etc, are just as good so I don't exclusively write for ezinearticles but it'll always be one of my first choices.

Ezine is great. I have a platinum account. However it's SUPER DUPER expensive. I think it's $120 every 3 months or something for a platinum account. (Sorry I don't remember my partner pays for that). But look at ArticlesBase they're FREE and function almost just as well as ezine if you know how to use it.

I have gotten tons of click throughs (20% CTR on avg) on my articles and they convert eventually, but you really gotta write LOTS of articles because there is soooo much competition on Google and on Ezine for the keywords that you want.
