    Congratulations!

    As you've demonstrated it's about getting the knowledge you need and then taking action based upon that knowledge.

    Article marketing has been proved time and again to be an effective free method for bringing targeted traffic to relevant offers.

    Keep going!

    Way to go, SmallFry!

    Making that first sale catapults you above probably 80-90% of the other folks out there trying to make it. Keep it up. Next step, turn that sale into two sales. Rinse and repeat.

    Wash. Rinse. Then Repeat! I remember seeing my making my first affiliate sale, it was pretty exciting and motivated me to keep pushing forward. I think the only thing that topped it was getting my first Adsense deposit! Congrats and keep working towards your goals.

      Great job

      Keep up the good work.

      Keep this in mind.

      On average every article you write should bring you in on average around $100-$300 on that articles life span.

      Sometimes even alot more.

      Just a little motivation to keep writing good quality original content.

    Congratulations! If you don't mind me asking, what strategy are you using? Article to review site? Article to opt-in page, or article right to affiliate link.
    I remember my first sale. I was also over the moon.

    Congrats SmallFry! Gave me some motivation when i saw this topic.
    i'm not too sure if this is right on topic, but as everyone can tell, I am a super noob to this stuff. I was just wondering what an article is and what is the product you are selling?

    Congratulations! This will push you even more to look at where your strengths are and then true, upscale better from there. It seems that you're already a part of those who could sell their pieces for good profit and making a living from articles in the near future.
