It’s… Ask Baldy again, and this time we’re helping Mitul make the break from an unfulfilling corporate job to being a full-time online info marketer.
The two links I mention in the video are:
- EzineArticles.com — a properly crafted article here can get you a good Google ranking for even competitive keywords. It’s worth getting a premium account at $94 for three months, just to prove to yourself how well it works.
- SubmitYourArticle.com — sends your articles to thousands of sites and ezines. Slow but sure and exceptionally high-quality. This link is an affiliate link. If you begrudge me a few bucks, just go straight to the site yourself. It’s worth visiting Steve’s site just for the free report and his blog (which is exceptional and definitely adheres to the maxim give your best stuff away for free.
I use both of these services myself.
If you've enjoyed this article, get email updates and help yourself to a heap of free marketing resources (it's all free). Just leave your details below, click the button... and I'll take care of the rest:
Sexy accent, Fuzzy!
But of course…
Hell Jon,
That wasn’t sexy at all! Your plan is boring, boring, boring. I saw this guru the other day that said I could make … lol
Joking aside, great advice my friend. The guy who sent you the question would be a dolt not take your advice.
Everte
Thanks, Everte.
It is quite frustrating at times, because I see people flitting from one Bright Shiny Thing to another and getting nowhere with them… and six months down the line they are exactly where they were before. But if they knuckled down to it at just 2 articles a day, which should take less than an hour, they’d have 150 articles up, there sending substantial amounts of traffic.
Someone who was really committed to it and who had the product to sell could get 1,000 articles up in 100 days and be pretty much set up for life (well, at least have a solid foundation to set them up for life).
I’d just like to thank you publicly as well Jon…so thank you!
Thanks Baldy, great post. Thanks for the article leads. I would love to know more specifically about formatting articles. Maybe you have some tips on clever formatting?
Take care,
Hi Jon! Thanks for your very informative Ask Baldy video today. I appreciate your explanation of the logic of the numbers. Very convincing and also inspiring. It’s almost a pity I don’t write articles in English, being Dutch. Anyway I also like the whole format of your Ask Baldy videos. Keep it coming! Kind regards from Amsterdam.
They can only be as good as the questions I get…
Jon,
Great stuff as usual–do you think blog posts would qualify as articles to be submitted or would you look for the more traditional article-type submissions? Just wondering…
You could pretty easily re-purpose a blog post. It all depends on how focused and useful the blog post was, though, of course. And you wouldn’t want to post it verbatim.
Ah yes John, all well and good… but no mention of the backend sales? Tut-tut!! Your numbers are only relative to your front end pricing, your pricing model, your backend sales and your front end funnel.
If you want to make £60,000 per year, you don’t necessarily need 700 visitors per day at all. In fact, you don’t even need 100 in some cases.
I know you know this, I know you know that I know that you know this… but you know, maybe others would take this too literally and set-in-stone, as you didn’t really cover this side of the game in your video.
(p.s – actually laughed out loud (that’s long for LOL kids) when you mentioned big tits by the pond
This is all true — I was just trying to keep it simple. Remember a lot of people out there trying to do this online thing are practically ‘net illiterate. Obviously the real value is in the long-term, yes.
