Ezine 50% clickthrough
I started with a few Ezine articles getting on average 10% clickthrough & thought, OK not a bad start.. But give the next lot some beef.
So the next batch are nearer 25%. Better.
But Kyle and Carson said 40% was good.
OK the next 2 have just been published and one is well over 50% clickthrough.
It's going great guns and has a title that really socks it to em.
Unlike my first tries which were a bit too polite!
-----------------------------------
What did I do differently?
I started using keywords from AdWords with minimum 1000 results
The keyphrase was at always at the start of the title followed by a statement (which could be verified) on how it could affect the reader
eg keyword of Collie Dog Training
= Collie Dog Training Course - Get Him Walking to Heel Within Hours
After that stick to the title subject & don't drift off. Having the keyword as anchor text in the final paragraph acts as a good round off
----------------------------------
I try not to spend too long dwelling over the poorly performing articles but a pattern is emerging with the sexy or personal titled articles doing a lot better
I've just got 10 published & I'm a "Basic Plus" level author. Which means another 25 to become Platinum.
2 down 23 to go. It's head down and write like mad cos I've got tons of material to write about. I've got a timer & give myself 40 mins to turn one around.
