Clickbank affiliates

I've only really done article marketing for backlinking / seo purposes really - to build my sites rank in the search engines over a longer period of time rather than doing it with the primary goal of getting instant traffic and making money there and then.

Imo this is a little short sighted, it can work, but its not going to make you rich, and ever other week youre going to have to work to get a new batch of articles on EZA to get more traffic.

If you get a little more creative and just use article marketing as one tool to get your site to rank then imo and experience you will rise naturally up the search engines and stay there.. but I think article marketing can go way beyond just submitting an article to EZA and ArticlesBase, theres squidoo, Hubpages, and many other web 2.0 sites, try a few here and there, get your articles on different sources pointing back to you... then use some more automated article submissions, maybe even a spinning / blog network for a bit... this is my technique, I move from one system to the next and overall it works in the end, and as you go you will learn which systems are best for you and where to spend your time next time round, what to drop, and also try some new things too....

.. think bigger, think long term - if you can get natural search rank you will get traffic consistently for a lot longer than the shelf life of an article on EZA
 


yea i stop paying for the membership, i figured out that i could find alot of the information they were giving out free online.
 
I will say that, if done correctly, article marketing + Clickbank offers can still be profitable.
It really depends on how you value your time, because it's takes ALOT of it. Writing articles
all day is not fun, and you get to a point where you're basically just rewriting the
same crap in a different way. To make decent money you'll need to write 10-25 a DAY.

I started out in bum/article marketing. I did things the right way -- opt-ins on my landing pages,
split testing landing pages, squidoo, hubpages, EZA, etc. It's alot of work for what you get out of it.

I got to the point where I was making $200-$300 a day and decided it was taking up way too much time
and I started moving into other things. Eventually sales tapered down, but I still randomly get paid from
clickbank after 2 years. I imagine if I had done it for 2 years straight I could have coasted on it for the next 5 :updown:

Things have changed a bit over the past couple of years and there are better ways of "bumming" it, but I can't
really knock it because it's not a bad way to get capital if you have none.

That being said.... if you gotta do it to move into CPA, do it! But get to CPA as soon as you can. It's much easier
to quantify ROI in terms of dollars and cents vs. the hours of your life flushed down the toilet.
 
You can use something like InstantPopover for hovering opt-ins on your landing page, or just place a static opt-in box. I use aweber to manage my leads.
