Day 10 – Still No Sales? Geez…
It’s cool; I saw early results; however, the results are not consistent. I’m sure they will be in due time, I just have to be patient and count my “mini-victories”
I already broke the 100 visitor mark for today and the days not even over; so I cannot fret, atleast the people are clicking through. Plus this traffic is long-term anyways; meaning that it will almost surely make me sales down the line.
My hoplink conversions are going as expected. I expected to see 63 hoplinks today and so far I have about 55 at this point. So Hopefully all my calculations go correct and I’ll average one sale a day in a couple days.
I just have to keep the goal in my head: 2500 articles. No matter what happens; I’m not going to quit until I reach my goal of 2500 articles.
- I Have to: Come up with 40 article subjects & Outline Them
- Write 40 article subjects: Try to break into [Tier 2.] -
I also designed a new goal. I will create a new landing page after every 100 articles. This means less work and a better flow; while diversing my products overtime.
Once a product reaches 100 articles, I just stop working on it and replace it with a different product. I’m also going to make the choice of promoting my big ticket items first!
That way I can always have the excitment that a big ticket item may convert!
44 articles left until next Tier
2444 articles left overall until I can move on to [Phase II] of my marketing: which is PPC & Creating my Own Personal Generic yet Effective Affiliate Marketing Blog.
The thing that gets me motivated is if I have a magical dream day and get one sale for every product i promote in one day – that will get me 277$ of pure profit in a single day.
Easier said than done – I know; but still, it’s a possibility. I keep that in my head. I will have that magical day.
keep that goal close and keep reviewing it everyday. That will keep you motivated. What will reaching that goal feel like? Try to visualize actually achieving that goal everyday and you will stay focused. But make sure you are spending your time and energy wisely by making sure that you keep analyzing what you are doing.
Just keep focused and you WILL get there!

Thank you! You have been motivating me the whole way, so that’s awesome that people are actually paying attention to this blog. I’m defintely analyzing which websites and products work – which don’t
Some products need less visitors to convert while others are in high demand but also need a greater amount of visitors to promote. It’s tough, and this is not for everybody – I see why people quit with article marketing; but I should start to see results soon!

Bookmarked your blog and I will be keeping an eye on your article writing. It has somewhat inspired me to get off my ass and write more articles so thats what I plan to do.
I think your crazy having a target of 2500 articles but man on man I can imagine the income you will start to see if you do manage it!

Yeah, that’s a pretty crazy goal isn’t it. It’s going to take me roughly two months to get there at this pace, but hey! I’m not complaining, lol. I just make it a goal that no matter how much or lack of money I’m making – I’m going to work towards that goal.
Even if I come out with zero dollars, I’m going to pat myself on the back and say I gave it a legitimate shot; I’ll take pride in the amount of traffic I was able to drive!
I’m glad i’m inspiring you. You can do this; anybody can. It just takes a little determination!

Just keep going. With that amount of traffic you’re getting. You’ll hit your payday in a matter of days.
Maybe you should start changing a little bit the way you write your articles, to make them shorter and get them done faster.
Just Keep tweaking them until you find the perfect formula.
I’m having a great time going trough you posts.
Keep updating…
