Writing Articles ?

I make great money writing articles and promoting my own products as well as CPA offers and products that I promote as an affiliate. One a day or more would be a fantastic place to start.

It's not about how many you write, it's about the quality of the articles themselves and how well they convert into "clicks" on your link...

Also, if you can get them ranking on the search engines, you can make tons of sales from just one article. Keyword optimize them using a 1 - 1.5% keyword density and make sure to put the keyword phrase you're targeting in the title.

There are a lot of people in this forum that make great money writing articles. Weather it's writing content for others, submitting to article directories, writing content for their own sites, etc.

There are far too many variables though to say "if you write X number of articles per day you will make X amount of money."

Yes, writing articles is one of my biggest money making methods. I don't know about the how many to write per day, I think that depends on the niche, competition, etc.. However, I do know that making money online isn't like a job, there isn't any "If do this, then I get this". It's more like, If I do this, then I have a chance at that.

I write articles for others, and make good money doing so.

It is not easy money. However, to highlight that it is not writing but copywriting...spinning text, emphasize keyword, etc. Complete different ball game as comparing with the simple form of writing. There are software to help do the "writing". Probably copy others first and then "make it look different", so that machine and human when making the evaluation cannot find any copying. Some people can write hundred and thousand versions and all about the same thing. Amazed.

Writing....hard money. Copywriting with good skill and knowledge...easy money.

If you write the articles for yourself, rather than selling them off for 1-2 cents a word then you can absolutely make great money writing articles. A well-researched, well-written article can continue to bring you passive income for years.

The real question is not how many articles you need to write to make a good living, but the quality of articles and promotional methods. If you are going to blast 20 articles a day in a crowded niche and expect to make a killing, then think again. While I have made decent money using this method, it is not a long term business plan.

On the other hand, if you focus on writing 2-3 quality articles a day of around 500 words, and then backlink the articles you can achieve high Google rankings. The key to successful article marketing is passive traffic, which is what I link to teach my clients.

Article marketing is a huge part of my business model, but it also comes down to how you monetize the traffic you receive from your article marketing efforts. Always leverage your traffic for a maximum return on investment.

Threads asking how to do Article Marketing come up quite often here - so I have a standard reply - I hope this helps:

Two brilliant threads to read about article marketing are these:

Read them both - all the way through - and take notes.

For further information I recommend the following directory - It is education in article marketing - a guide book and monthly newsletters - with a directory thrown in!

Article Directory - Article Marketing Community

I can also recommend the WSO's from this guy:

A lot of people make a good living from writing articles. In fact, I am one of them myself, I write to promote my stuff as well as others. So my advice to you go for it and good luck

Yes definitely, I make sales daily from articles. However, you need to go into the right niches where people are in the buying zone. Quality and consistency are paramount.

Just pick good keywords, a profitable niche, use a landing page that converts or collect customers emails.

Be smart about it! In my opinion its not how many you do its how you go about doing it...right from the niche you choose.

Does anyone really make decent money writing articles

Short Answer 1: Yes!


Now onto the tough question..

How many to submit for a return...?

Long Winded Answer 2: There is no concrete answer to this one, and if someone tells you there is then slap it in reverse and get the hell out of dodge!

I have articles that make thousands yearly yet I have many that haven't made squat...as in zip, nada, zilch-a-reeno! The key is getting the mix right...

For instance, you can have a masterfully crafted article about how to make and apply elbow patches, but at the end of the day is there a huge market for elbow patche creations and application?

Then there's the old 3 bears analogy...have you matched your work to the market properly?

For Instance (Again)...Is your headline too bold, not bold enough, or just right?

For Instance (Yet Again)...Is your market into bulleted, quick-n-dirty info delivery yet your writing long winded 500+ word articles that are the written equivalent of spoken monotone? (or Vice-versa).

There's a short ramble for you...Just a few thoughts to hopefully stir yer brain a bit and see this question really has no definitive answers...

Good Luck,

Chris
