Do “Bum Marketing”
Bum Marketing is the brainchild of a guy named Travis Sago: http://bummarketingmethod.com
A few years back, he found a loophole in the Google
search results and created
a simple system where you:
1.
Target high volume
keywords
2.
Post content around these keywords
on sites like EzineArticles.com
3.
Promote affiliate products
in these articles
4.
Rinse and repeat
till you have a full-time income.
This
technique helped a lot of people
make some serious
money. (It worked for me!)
Unfortunately, Bum Marketing doesn’t
work like it once did. Too much
competition has made it really
hard to get a good listing for your article.
Plus, Google has slapped
down many sites
like EzineArticles; which makes it challenging
to get your pages ranked.
With that said, I feel the idea behind Bum Marketing still works.
The important principle is to find sites that Google naturally prefers
and create content on them. So while EzineArticles.com might not be the darling
of Google like it once was, there
are still sites
that can be “gamed for profit.”
For instance, here are a few sites that I’ve used to rank content based
on keywords:
•
Squidoo
The key to making this work is to create
content around a high-traffic
keyword and build backlinks to it.
Keep this idea in mind because
we’ll be expanding
upon it throughout this report…
Be a Squidoo Lensmaster
A few years back, Squidoo was all the rage because
it ranked high in Google search results.
Now, it’s largely
ignored by the marketers who’ve
moved on to sites like Twitter
and Facebook.
The good news is Squidoo still works.
In fact, you can earn affiliate income by promoting products through this site. This technique
is great for people
who don’t have a lot of money. You
can start
right away with ZERO income…all you need is a willingness to work hard.
For instance, my brother uses Squidoo
to promote Amazon
products. He has
done really well with this site in the last few months:
Another cool thing about Squidoo is you get paid based on the amount of traffic you get to your lenses.
For example, here is what he made since he’s opened a Squidoo account:
Sure, $833.35 isn’t a huge amount of money.
But it’s nice to get paid a little bit of extra cash when all you’re really doing is driving
traffic to an affiliate offer.
Bottom line…Squidoo is a site to leverage
you if want to build multiple niche sites.
