I’ve submitted 6 articles to ezinesarticles.  But more importantly for me is I’ve finally got a plan in place beyond ezines.

I started thinking about what others had said in the Affiliate Article Writing forum about other directories to add your articles to.  It seems that articlesbase.com is making a run at ezines and many people in the Affiliate Article Writing program are having great luck with it.

So after each article is approved at ezines I’ll be posting a version of it at articlesbase.   But that is just a small change to my process.

Since I control my pre-sale site, I added a blog to it and I’m posting my ezinearticles on it with a back link,  seems back links can’t hurt so why not.

I’m also doing an experiment with other sites and back linking.  My goal is to get get some link love to my ezine and articlesbase pages without a bunch of work.  I’ll let you know how it goes, and the particulars soon.

And lastly I put together a spreadsheet that tracks clicks to the product sites vs sales.  There is some interesting data there that I’ll post when I get a free moment.

OK, well it’s going to be a wild week again,  I’m heading to the east coast for a couple of days but I hope to keep writing on this trip.

I’ll post a september summary post on the 1st, so there is still a couple of day to catch a sale or two.

Cheers,

Today I’ve submitted 3 articles to ezinearticles, added to the 4 I did yesterday I’ve now submitted in 2 days 10% more articles than I did in the first 8 months doing this. At this rate I’ll double my article count by the end of next week.

I’m going to try beat that but it will all depend how much I get done over the labor day week end.

I’m focused right now on submitting articles for the Aqusana and Affiliate Article Writing opportunities.

On a couple of house keeping notes.  First off,  I cleaned up my commissions earned in the sidebar to only include commissions and adsense earning from programs I’m promoting with article marketing.   Please don’t ask me to split the two apart because I can’t,  it’s against googles TOS to talk about what one makes from adsense.  Let just say for the sake of augment it’s a very small part of the total number.

Secondly,  I’ve decide I’m only going to update the monthly numbers once a week, probably over the weekend.

Thats it for tonight,  good luck all with your affiliate marketing dream!
