I know how you feel, it seems everything is a waste of time, money and effort. I started working from home a few years back and tried everything. Seems all they wanted was my money, I bought, I trained and in the end I felt betrayed.
Then I found Travis Sago. I came across his sign up page, I can remember thinking to myself this will probably turn out tobeanother dude. I did it anyway. Turns out article marketing is a lucrative industry to get involved with. Let me show you some statistics I found while I was investigating article marketing.
These facts are from a study done by Knol in 2009, with EzineArticles as their main submitting site.
Statistics as follows for a one month period:
1. 199 articles submitted had received 387845 views
2. received an average of 15000 visits a month
3. 2500 clicks per month to websites
4. keyword return on investment is massive at an average of $1300-$1500 worth of clicks from EzineArticles alone
This study appears to having been done to help companies realize the benefits of article marketing.
Does article marketing really work? Yes, it does work.
Is article marketing a fad? No, it is not a new concept. It has been around almost as long as the printing press. Think about it, newspapers, magazines, newsletters and the internet all have some type of article that is marketing a product or service.
Is it safe? I would say from a statistical stand point that it is probably the safest, most effective way to get an on-line career started.
Most people do not realize how easy article marketing is. It is as easy as writing a letter to your brother, sister or friend. Writing articles is as easy as talking to your co-workers about that new television or car you just bought. Article marketing is basically word of mouth, you tell a friend, they tell a friend and so on, only you are telling the world in written form.
