Hello Everyone,

What is the cost of writing 25 articles and submitting it to the top 20 article directories with 2 links from each article? It means I am asking the cost of total of 1000 quality backlinks for a site and every submission must be at least 20% rewrite.

How many visitors can a site gain per day from this type of campaign?

Please tell me an approximate amount that I must be prepared with in my bank account to pay for this type of campaign. Please provide your opinion.

Thank You

    Your questions are far too vague for anyone to answer. Your costs will depend on the articles quality, sites submitted to etc.

    Without knowing a ton more details nobody will be able to estimate your daily visitors or cost properly.

    Typically, you can have decent articles written for $5 to $20 each, depending on quality.
    You can have them spun and distributed for maybe $40 or $50, or more, again depending on what kind of quality you're after.

    Nobody can even guess how much traffic you'll receive, as there are MANY variables involved.

    Hi Nitesh,

    If you'll excuse the observation, it's an interesting question from someone apparently promoting an article-writing service ...

    Article directory articles (whether "20% re-written" or not) are by no stretch of the imagination "quality backlinks". In fact they're extremely poor quality, non-context-relevant backlinks, and almost all of them will be on PR-0 pages (regardless of the page-rank of the article directories' home pages which won't normally, of course, be where your articles appear).

    Traffic is a totally different matter from backlinks. The prime benefit of what you're asking about will be backlinks (albeit bad ones), so the traffic generated will depend on the extent to which the backlinking lifts your site in the SERP's, which will in turn depend on all sorts of other considerations (and all sorts of other sites as well!).

    Articles in article directories produce traffic (sometimes highly targeted traffic) when they're syndicated from article directories - so the traffic you get really depends primarily on the extent to which you're writing for syndication, as well as on the niche itself.

    Without syndication, the little bit of traffic you may get from the articles themselves (or at least from whichever copy of them is originally indexed by search engines) will itself also depend hugely on many parameters to do with the niche's keywords.

    For all these reasons, it isn't really possible for anyone even to guess without a lot more information.

      Well spotted!

      Nitesh, how long is a piece of string?

      You can get your articles written here:
      99centarticles.com | Warrior Package Deals

      25 articles @ $116.25 (and these are well written/researched articles)

      They will do spinning/re-writes of articles but I'm not sure how much they charge for that. You would need to contact them. He is a fellow Warrior.

      You can get a ton of backlink and submission packages here.
      This was a service I found out about recently through a recommendation by Adeel Chowdry:
      Link Building King - Quality Article Submission

      I just noticed they also offer a service where they will spin 1 article into 100 articles and submit all those articles to 100 article directories - for $25.

      So I'm sure you could work something out with them if you only have 25 articles.

      Hope that helps!

        Not your sites in signature? - advertise yourself as a "writer" and don't know pricing on articles?

        This type of thread is getting to be common - and that's not good.

    Well, let's see. Judging from the urls in your sig, in my opinion you don't have any money in your bank account.

      On the contrary, he once had a lot of money in his bank account but he lost them to poor advertisement of signature file.

      Sorry Nitesh but you can't seriously expect a quality answer from the above question with this (below) in your signature.

      I am a professional writer. I have written tons of articles and more than 50 ebooks for different niches that have passed copyscape easily. Some examples are listed below.
      Kind of defeats the whole object of being here, for you anyway. In answer to your question...

      1) As a professional writer, I'd expect you to be able to answer your own question and...

      2) In my own honest opinion, it varies - massively.
