Who else is sick and tired of writing articles that don’t convert? Are you buying guru products like they’re going out of style…or are you reading blogs, forums and home study courses without seeing much success? The truth is, much of the popular information out there on how to turn your CONTENT into cash is completely wrong…and more often than not, it is also advice from people who don’t practice what they preach.

Want to know the NAKED truth about article marketing for a flood of traffic?

You have to have a very specific and well thought out strategy BEFORE you start. For example, one of the biggest considerations when it comes to content marketing traffic is the actual NICHE you are writing in or about. In 2009, for example, I generated over 1 MILLION new readers in a niche, using ONE article directory alone. The fact is, though, that I knew it was a high volume niche with tons and tons of potential eyeballs available, and my success had LESS to do with me and more to do with the actual topic.

DID YOU KNOW, though… that some of the highest volume niches have the WORST conversion rates?

It’s true. For example, men’s health, dating, human sexuality, and those kinds of sexy and lewd niches have TONS and tons of traffic available. But they often turn the worst into subscribers and sales…because people are more likely to search storefronts for information, rather than being serious about buying a product, service, or offer. Of course, it doesn’t mean that you can’t make a lot of money in those niches, because you CAN, it just means that the volume of traffic can be tempting… but misleading when it comes to real profits.

My best advice?

Go where YOUR gifts are. Write about the things you are MOST passionate about, the things you have the most interest in, and simply support them with high-value offers that you can present to your readers. In reality, it’s MUCH easier for YOU to sell 10 $1000/month training or mentoring programs than it is to sell 200 $47 eBooks. This is why I recommend, if you are NOT an affiliate bookmark, spend less time getting huge amounts of traffic and instead… focus on highly QUALIFIED traffic which is more likely you can, be willing and go to spend real money. money on the products and services you have to offer. (it’s much more FUN and rewarding too… 🙂
