Article Marketing Like A Bum
Posted by: Jeff in Affiliate Marketing, tags: Article Marketing, classified ads, making money on the Internet, usfreeadsIn case you haven't heard of it by now, there's an excellent program called the Bum Marketing Method. If you're like many of us just starting out in affiliate marketing, you probably don't have a lot of money to spend on it. Even if you do have some extra money, it may be better to get your feet wet with article marketing before you start shelling out money on PPC (Pay Per Click) advertising.
I've posted here before regarding article marketing, and it's a very well known technique to generate free traffic. Obviously, free is good. Although article marketing can generally take longer than PPC's nearly instant traffic results, it's a small price to pay for a proven, fairly easy to use method of making money on the Internet.
As suggested in the BMM, there is one exception that I would make to going the totally free route. Actually, as you start getting more advanced there's a few resources that will be worth many times more than the relatively small amount of money that you have to invest in them.
The one exception that I would make immediately though is USFreeAds. You've probably heard of this one too. It's a site that let's you post classified ads. There's many good things here that are easily worth the small monthly fee of $9.95
Here's some of the benefits of USFreeAds.
- Set Ads to Never Expire
- Full HTML Editor
- Use of Affiliate Links
- Unlimited Amount of Ads
- Broad Exposure
- Very Popular w/ the Search Engines (especially Google)
These are some of the major benefits. For such a small monthly fee there's really no downside to getting a premium account. Depending on what product(s) and/or service(s) you promote, you could easily cover the cost of several months of membership with just one sale via your merchant. If you have many well written ads that are producing for you, the $9.95/month would be a fantastic investment.
