      My own prediction is that article marketing and email marketing will both be really "big", in 2015.

      I base this prediction on the observable reality that article marketing and email marketing have each grown and become a little easier and more productive and more profitable to do, very steadily, inexorably, year on year, every year since 2008 when I got started in internet marketing. There certainly hasn't yet been a year - during my career - for which this prediction would have proven unfounded, so I'm sticking with it for 2015 as well (as we forex-traders say: "follow a trend until it reverses!" ).

      The irony is that both article marketing and email marketing continue to grow and become more profitable and productive roughly in proportion to the number of Warrior Forum threads announcing the "imminent demise" of each of them, so I'm not-so-secretly hoping that many will disagree with me, as that's worked out consistently well for me in the past!

        How is article marketing easier right now? I'm very much interested in this.

          There's more internet marketing going on, and more - of all sorts of things - being published (both offline and online) and it's therefore easier to get the articles published than it was before, simply because there are more available outlets for them. I've noticed a gradual progression in this direction, over the last six years.

          Google has also assisted us article marketers, actually in quite a few ways, over recent years: for example, the Panda updates effectively swept the "article directory marketers" out of our way; and (subjective impression here, but certainly shared by many "in the trade") there's been a significant improvement in the SEO benefits accruing to the sites credited with the initial indexations of content subsequently widely syndicated elsewhere.

          There may also be less competition, too, these days, because there are some people who (presumably confusing "article marketing" with "article directory marketing", and/or looking at internet marketing mostly in terms of "getting traffic from Google") completely wrongly imagine that article marketing is actually worse/harder now than before, and more or less dismiss it as a traffic-generation method for that reason.

            So if I don't post the articles in the article directories anymore, what sort of marketing should I do?
            I'm thinking of starting my own blog and I read the I need to write articles for my blog and different articles for marketing directories to get links to my blog.

            And now you're telling me this isn't the way to go anymore
            I'm confused, so what should I do then?

            Anywhere I can read more about this?

            Thank you.

              Ezine Articles is the only article directory worth using, and even that one not in the hope or expectation of getting potential customer traffic from the directory. This isn't how article directories work.

              Posts #2 and #6 of this thread explain more.

              To get traffic from articles, you mean? You need to have them re-published in places where the people you want to attract to your site are already looking/reading/visiting: http://www.warriorforum.com/main-int...ml#post6575732

              You don't necessarily need articles, to get backlinks.

              Well, I'm telling you that what you're describing isn't "article marketing" (and never was, really!).

              This is "article marketing".

              The first of the posts I've linked to, above, has more information and list of other links inside it, too.

              And this post also describes - with links - the article marketing process (which I'm using primarily to sell ClickBank products, though that isn't really relevant in itself).

              Of course, there are plenty of other ways of generating traffic apart from "with articles", and this thread lists many of them: http://www.warriorforum.com/main-int...ffic-tips.html

      What is your idea here, having normal people donate to political parties and take a cut?

    What will be big in 2015?

    I wish I knew what would be big in 2004, when I was still kicking 2003
    (hint: Facebook)

    So for 2015 ... hopefully not another tsunami ... unless it's a tsunami of hungry buyers for my 2015 stuff - whatever that will be
