Review My Article MArketing Model

You've kindly supplied it already.

I can perhaps add a "reading reference" or two to your remarks, above, if they help ...

Article marketing is a traffic-generation method in its own right, not a part of "SEO": http://www.warriorforum.com/main-int...ml#post5035794

Nobody can say, with certainty, I'm afraid.

I couldn't make money with it, but that doesn't necessarily mean that you can't. You may have a chance, if you get absolutely every tiny detail right at every stage of what you're doing, and choose the right product(s), and pay attention to absolutely everything you do, and have a really good autoresponder series. I just don't know.

I'm not quite clear how you're planning to generate your traffic, I admit.

If you do what you propose above, with articles written for syndication, that happen to get syndicated from Ezine Articles to relevant niche sites/ezines with targeted traffic, then certainly you might make money, because you'll have decent traffic.

I do think it may help you a lot to give the posts linked to above a slow, thoughtful read. Perhaps especially this post and the links inside it: http://www.warriorforum.com/main-int...ml#post5068872

I would hope so: that's the main purpose of having a site, in this context - either a squeeze page or a prominently incentivized opt-in on the landing page of a niche site, anyway. If you're going to try article marketing, you'll want to publish all the articles and have them indexed on your own site first, anyway, before submitting them anywhere else (long-term SEO benefits). I don't understand why you propose to submit to 5 article directories - it seems a bit excessive? I don't suggest it would be "wrong": just "unnecessary" and "without additional benefit" and perhaps not the best use of one's time? But possibly you'll change your mind about that after a look through some of the threads mentioned above?

Good luck!
