How To Make Money Online And Be Showing A Profit 12 Months From Now

Article marketing is just about my favorite topic in the internet marketing niche and I love to talk about it. This time last year I sat down and figured out how to at least double my income this year and I kept getting back to article marketing.

Two things I isolated that needed attention was focus and eliminating the issue of being an information consumer. Don’t get me wrong, I was doing okay but there were still some bad habits which needed exorcising.

So this was the plan I devised which I’m hoping that some of you who may still be on the starting blocks will adopt, and get some income flowing into your hip pockets. It’s simple in nature but is going to require a lot of work. Are you up to it? Here it is:

1. Plan to promote two products a month simply using article marketing. Spend a little time researching your niches.

2. I suggest sticking with Clickbank and choosing a niche and then look for a product you can promote within that niche.

3. When you’ve found your niche create web 2 properties at Squidoo, Hub Pages and Wetpaint based around a long tail keyword related to your niche.

4. Then write ten articles which you will submit to the following article directories over a two week period:

http://ezinearticles.com

http://searchwarp.com

http://www.selfgrowth.com

http://www.zimbio.com

http://www.goarticles.com

http://www.amazines.com

http://www.articlesbase.com

http://www.ideamarketers.com

5. Make one of your web 2 properties your money site and point your links to it. Squidoo or Wetpaint are good choices.

6. Bookmark your articles pages and submit your RSS feeds.

That’s it. Sound like a lot of work? It is but if you have yet to make any sort of a move in internet marketing then this will be a great way to “get your hands dirty” and better still, it will give you focus. You’ll be kept pretty busy but remember, once you start to earn income then you’ll have extra money to get some of the writing outsourced.

I mention this system simply because I hear the question of “where do I start?” so often that if you simply did this for a year, not only would you have started but it’s likely you will have developed a decent income stream by the end of it.

Two niches and products a month would give you 24 campaigns by the end of the year. Supposing just six of these prove profitable then you will have income coming in you didn’t have before you started. I’m tipping with good research, you can get at least half of these profitable. Now I have no control in what you come up with but remember, when a niche proves profitable, then the possibilities open up such as creating a review site within that niche and adding other products within it.

And better still, you will have gained a whole lot of education in know how and I’m also tipping during this twelve month period, you’ll have plenty of those a-ha moments to add even extra streams of income to your business.
