Article Marketing Secrets Exposed

Introduction

 

Of all the ways to make money online, in my opinion, article marketing is the easiest and best way for anybody to make their first dollar. The best part is that without spending any more than the cost of a domain name, you can create a passive income that can bring you money from an article that you wrote years ago. So ask yourself: “Is spending a few minutes writing a 250-word article worth the time if it brings you money still years later?” I thought yes would be the answer.

 

I'm sure you've heard a ton of different opinions on how you should do article marketing and how you should provide the best information possible, write informative articles and give your reader value and so on. Well, what you're about to read is probably going to go against a lot of what you have read, and the article “gurus” are not going to like it.....but doing it this way has made me A LOT of money so I don't care if they agree with me or not! I'm going to do it the way it makes money and a way that continues to bring me money day in and day out.

 

If you are willing to put in the time to follow this method, you WILL make money and a good amount of it. What you need to remember is that there is no super highway to making money on the Internet. You MUST stay consistent and motivated even when you get frustrated and feel like things are not going your way. It is those who continue to work and promote their business that will in the end be successful.

 

So, no more pep talks. Let’s get right into it.

Chapter 1

Picking a Niche Made Easy

 

I'm not going to go deep into this as there are tons of easy ways to find a niche. But I will give you, in my opinion, the easiest way to find one. Here's how I pick a niche. I look at ONE thing when I'm going to pick a niche. Is there a problem that someone really needs a solution to? Now, I'm not going to say this is the only way to pick a niche, but I have found it to be most profitable.

 

Think about that for a minute. If a person has a problem and they are looking for a solution, they will almost definitely buy something that will give them that solution if you can convince them you can provide it to them. In my opinion, a problem is much more profitable than a hobby or a curiosity. When people have problems or issues, they want answers and a solution and they want it fast! And if you can convince them you have the solution, guess what? You’re going to get that sale!

 

So when picking a niche, put yourself in the position of the buyer. If you had a certain problem such as a “yeast infection” and you have been struggling with curing it for a while, would you pay for a solution? Damn right you would! Now don't confuse “wants” with “problems”. Weight loss for instance is not necessarily a “problem”. It can be a problem but wanting to lose weight is just that, “wanting to”.

 

Now, if a person has high blood pressure, now that’s a problem. That’s something that a person would want to fix and fix fast! Having a yeast infection is a problem and is also a thing that a person would want solved. Don't get me wrong, there is a lot of money in the “weight loss” niche just as there is a lot of money in the “make money online” niche, but they are tough to get a consistent piece of the pie. You will do much better and much faster if you get into things that will give people solutions to problems quickly.

 

This can go deep into this thought process as well into other niches. If a person is big into video games but can't seem to get past a certain level, they have a problem. They will be willing to pay if you can provide them a way to get past that level. Panic attacks are a problem, skin tabs are a problem, heart burn is a problem, feeling like your spouse is cheating is a problem, playing basketball and not being able to jump very high is a problem, having a virus on your computer and tinnitus (constant ringing in the ear) are problems.

 

Find the niches that people are desperate for a solution to a PROBLEM and you'll find the money you are looking for! Once you've thought of a problem or looked around Yahoo! Answers to see what people are having problems with, it's time to go to ClickBank.com and see if there is a product that will solve this problem. Chances are you will find more than one. Take a look at the products offered and see which one converts the best. You can tell this by the gravity of the product. Once you've selected the “problem” you’re going to fix, and the product you’re going to promote to solve it, it's time to get ready to start getting set up.
