Bum Marketing

[vslevin]

Any NP'ers into "Bum Marketing"? Its a mix of article marketing and affiliate marketing. I've tried it a little and have made 2 $28 sales. I read about it at the Warrior Forum, there's a lot of talk about it there. Have any NP'ers tried it, with or without any success?

You can get a free report about it at http://bummarketingmethod.com/

I'm not an expert, but if you have any questions about it, please ask, I may be able to help.

Does article submission really work? Will it lead to quality back links? Can we get higher SERPs with article submission?

Travis is very knowledgeable (owner of bummarketingmethod). He is trying to sell memberships to WA (Wealthy Affiliate), you can see links on a couple of of his pages. The site contains some good stuff for newbies though, as does Wealthy Affiliate.

Article submissions does work, but not as much as it use to years ago. You never know though, you could still get your articles on some good sites. I have one of my articles on a site that is giving me a minimum of 30 - 40 uniques per month.

Why call is bum marketing. Really a stupid name. lol.

It's existed for ages. Just like put adwords for affiliate products. Now it's write articles promoting affiliate products.

What's next... "The weasel measle peasle method".

I have had very good sucess with writing articles or blog entries focusing on long tail keywords for some niches. In 2-3 days, I have been #2 on google for these long tail keywords, typically something with fewer than 6000 results. Give it a try. It is free and can be effective.

It's a simple idea really. Find a searched for phrase with little competition, write and article about it, when it gets indexed by the search engines it should hopefully be pretty visible.

You're not going for backlinks since you're doing affiliate marketing. The backlinks would benefit your vendor and not any site of yours :D
