Today was amazing! I just finished creating a second landing page on my blog. This one is for a really neat online garden planning
tool--the sort of
tool I really wish I'd come across in say, January. All of you WA'ers who love to garden should definitely check it out.
Why did I create a landing page for this? Well, I was searching
Google under some keywords I've written copy for and found my blog post about AOCS silver on the first search page for two of my keywords. So, clearly
Google has found my blog. I didn't see anything come up for any of my articles or ads, so I figured better make up a quick landing page for PlanGarden so I can be sure it will come up.
I joined GoArticles.com and submitted two articles there. The wonderful thing about GoArticles is that they publish immediately. I'm still waiting to hear back from EzineArticles.com about the article I submitted yesterday. I also applied for SearchWarp.com and got accepted. I haven't submitted an article yet. This site doesn't seem to be as geared towards article marketing, and they expect participation on their forums--it's a writing community after all--so we'll see.
I placed two ads in USFreeAds. They have a free membership that allows you to have two ads up at a time, or you can upgrade to a Gold account and have 25 ads up at a time. For $10.00 a year that seemed reasonable. You even get to include one picture with your ad. If I ever get to the point where I want more than 25 ads up, then I'll pay $10.00 a month for the premium membership.
I played around with the WA link cloaker
tool. My motivation was to protect my affiliate links from getting ripped off, but apparently it's a pretty powerful tracking
tool as well. And, it has a space where you can enter your affiliate login info, which is going to be REALLY helpful. It is unbelievable how many individual affiliate programs and affiliate networks I have signed up for. Some places have definitely been easier to sign up for than others, and I'll just leave it at that.
I have been involved with WA for exactly one week. In that time I have started two campaigns. For both I have a landing page and either an article, an ad or both to direct to the landing page or directly to the merchant page. I'll admit it's crude and you seasoned folks who check out my landing page blog will note that it does not have an opt-in email form. That is something I will need to work on, including follow up emails and all that stuff. I didn't want to get bogged down with that, though. I wanted to set things up to open up a channel to make some sales and get paid some commissions. I believe I have opened up that path. I found two unrelated niche markets, wrote copy around keywords that don't yield a lot of results, and inserted cloaked affiliate links within that copy and published it to the web. All I need is for people to type in those search terms, see my pages and go shopping. Is that right? If I'm missing something that would make it impossible to earn money, someone please notify me. The email list will make me more money, but for now I should be able to make some money.
I think the next steps are to continue what I'm doing--write articles and ads to support my campaigns--and expand on that. I do hope to get into Squidoo this week, for example. And of course, I can start new campaigns as I think of them.
I'm pretty excited about my ability to hunt down niches. For the two campaigns I have started, at least two of my keywords have yielded the encouragement to "start writing now." I didn't have to work too hard to come up with those keywords either. I think the fact that I've always had off-the-beaten-path interests (I was the kid at school that people thought was weird) is going to serve me well here.
