Other Ways To Profit From Articles


Being an affiliate is a hard enough job at the best of times, but have you ever tried to get your article published in a large ezine publication? It can be a nightmare sometimes. It's even harder if you try and work your affiliate link into the article.

Articles are a great way to get free exposure for your web site and your affiliate program. Hopefully your web sites goal will be to get Opt-In email addresses and you have some sort of free report system working.

However, I have been testing an idea for quite awhile now that I think really works and I guarantee you that you will get your article published 100% more then you do now. This works especially well if you're running an Opt-In mailing list which I recommend you do.

Ezine publishers receive hundreds of articles for publishing a week, so why should they publish yours? You might think you have the best article ever written, and you might, but ezine publishers have to make money too you know. My idea not only will increase your chances of getting published but you will also be helping ezine publishers make more money, which in the long run they will remember and will be more receptive to your articles in the future.

Here's the idea.

When you write your article, try and work an affiliate link into it. Make sure it's in context and not just a blatant advertisement as that's why most ezine publishers refuse to publish affiliate members articles.

As I was saying, write your article and in that article put a link to an affiliate program you're promoting in context in your article. It helps when doing this that you can say that you honestly use that product or service. I guarantee you a personal endorsement in your article will double the sales you would get with out an endorsement.

The twist here is that the affiliate link you put in will be changed by the ezine publisher. You will be letting the ezine publisher change your affiliate link in your article so they can earn commissions from your article and therefore increasing the chances of getting your article published. This has never failed for me and I'm sure it won't fail for you.

So how do you make money from this? Well if you have your own autoresponder free report series set up, you can use that in your article by line. You would make more sales from this then from commissions from the article. Your goal in any affiliate exercise is to get as many Opt-In email addresses as possible and as cheaply and quickly as possible.

Make sure your article by line is something that catches the readers attention. Heres a by line I used when promoting an article on Mini Sites. You can see I use a tracker to show how many people click on my link.

Your Name has been helping people succeed online for over X years and has dedicated his life to Internet Marketing. Visit his web site to find out how you can create mini sites that sell like crazy. Go to his website at
http://www.websitehere.com

However, if you wanted to promote your free autoresponder report series I would use something like this,

Your Name has been helping people succeed online for over X years and has dedicated his life to Internet Marketing. Find out how to earn a full time automated income with affiliate programs on a budget by sending a blank email to your@autoresponderhere.com

(I have many variations of this by line)

This is the most effective way to use your article. Going for the one off sale is ridiculous and risky to your online business.


Best Places To Submit Your Articles For Massive Exposure


There are many pieces of software that will submit your article to directories for you, for instance.....

http://www.articleannouncer.com/ 

Which is all the rave now.

You can also hire services like Submityourarticle.com and Phantomwriters.com to submit your articles for you, but this gets very costly if you are writing lots and lots of articles at once.

Personally, I like to do it myself.

Here are list of article directories I submit my articles to.

http://www.GoArticles.com 
http://www.EzineArticles.com 
http://www.ArticleCity.com 
http://www.Isnare.com
