I got some good info from your post too, vt. Thanks. I was wondering about some of that myself. I sometimes have trouble knowing where to look to get started with some of this stuff.

Thank you so much for the response VT. I am know that there is some topics that do not have much competition but there are others that have a ton but really do not offer the right information in those article or they are very poorly written. I again appreciate the places to check out and to be able to get the information that I really need.

Attagirl, it wouldn’t be very hard to find topics that generate interest but don’t attract an overwhelming amount of competition. There are actually several ways you can find such niches and pick your interests from among them. If you want to write just for gaining viewer interest then the process is much simple. You can skim through the lenses on Squidoo or turn to google trends website to learn what topics are gaining momentum.While on Squidoo, you can also check out what products are showing up from ebay, amazon etc for those lenses. If you want to dig further then you can even use the free google keyword tool to find the search volume and keyword competition for the specific keywords you want to write on.

Having to write on topics that no one else will write on seems to be the way to really make it work. How would one go about doing this and making the money in this manner. If someone would be kind enough to help explain where I can understand this would be great. I would like to do article through affiliates.

@ Jherek You can get freelance writers at a number of sites. they’d charge different rates depending on the quality of the articles and topics you assign them. Elance is a great site to get some quality work done in a very short time frame. It involves a process of bidding on your project and you get to pick the writer after going through their experience, profiles and bid amounts. You can also try associated content but there are several forums where you can find good ghost writers who charge much less than these sites.

This article has covered all the important facts about article marketing. I believe that article marketing is one of the best ways to drive traffic and gain some back links to your site for free. I’m going to try this method on my affiliate business. I’m going to get my own domain then research as much for the said articles. They do provide some articles about the product but they said to change it a little bit so that search engines would not penalized them.

Freelance writers are definitely a great resource. They can create well-written articles that may cost some money, but spare you the time to focus elsewhere and you can get a substantial amount of traffic.

@Jherek, I’m sure there are plenty of sites you can contract through, but word of mouth might be the best way. Ask some of your fellow blog owners.

As for hiring freelance writers, how do you recommend going about that? What sites are a good resource?

Writing on controversial articles gets traffic over there like mad, especially if some person makes a big song and dance about you invoking the first amendment.

Learned that when I completely owned some loony who was saying that D&D was Satanic on my old D&D forum. I decimated his argument until the only thing he had left was the fact that you could become a God if you wanted, which is nigh-impossible if you play by the book.

Got 879 guests on my forum, none of them signed up though ;_;
