Did This Better Networker Article Make $30,000 Bucks In A Day?
Wow! If you’re hanging around Better Networker today then I HIGHLY recommend you check out Charles Hubner’s latest article.
He tells the story of how one article he posted on Better Networker generated over $30,000 dollars in single day – crazy!
You see, that’s the “MAGIC POWER” of articles…
UNFORTUNATELY, Article marketing isn’t as easy as it used to be… in fact, it’s kinda like pulling teeth with a fork these days… With that said, article marketing is still a HUGE player in the Internet Marketing game – when it’s done right.
But The Fact Is, “Article Marketing” As It’s Usually Done Is Deader Than A Skunk Run Over By A Drunk.
SO, HERE’S A NEWS FLASH: if you think you can write articles like you did in 2003 and still make it work – that game IS over.
By that I mean, writing CRUMMY articles and posting them everywhere like wallpaper (or toilet paper) is a dumb idea – period.
Sure, there’s SEO writing (and that’s all fine and dandy) but your prospects aren’t robots who speak English as a second language.
There has to be HEART in your articles too.
And honestly, does anybody stop to read drivel these days?
In my opinion, they never have and they never will…
But if you’re looking for an intelligent article written by somebody who actually knows how to take one article and turn it into $30,000 bucks – you need to read this.
WARNING: It’s a long article
If you enjoyed this short one then share it with friends on Twitter, Facebook, Or Better Networker before you head on over to Charles Hubner’s masterpiece.
If you only read one article this weekend, make it Hubner’s – it’s that good.
Have a great weekend,
-Jason the “Better Networker”

Article marketing is something I started looking into a few months ago and I actually posted my first article a few weeks ago. I have to get into a rhythm with it, as I find submitting them to be a bit of a daunting and time consuming task.
I will read this article you make mention of – perhaps I can glean some tips from it.
Thanks Jason,
Kerie

That article is hands down one of the best pieces of content I’ve read lately.
Worth it’s weight in gold.

Jason,
You’re absolutely write about just writing articles for SEO. You’ve got to write NOT only for the search engines but for your readers.
If no one had read Charles’s article, he wouldn’t have made $30K. I’m looking forward to reading it.
Thanks for sharing.

Jason,
I think your blog posts are a great example of article marketing done right. They have a great mix of content, feelings, and are applicable immediately to life and business.
I love the article by Charles Hubner. It was inspiring and makes me want to get busy writing articles in the “new” format!
Have a fab weekend!

Why thank you Mary.

Wayne Vassell on April 23rd, 2010
$30k from one article! Now that is an achievement!
I agree, the article game is harder, so if we work on the quality as much as “quantity” it will pay off in the long run.
Nice post J.

It’s harder to get in…
But man oh man… it’s a goldmine for writers/marketers with mad skills.

Amen Jason, Quality always rules over quantity and
no point in putting run down articles all over because people only take action when they see some value.

Wow, Jason…
Thanks for sharing the “Article Marketing Blueprint” Charles has so carefully drawn up.
Got about a foot of Wet, Spring snow this morning so instead of ‘pounding nails’, today I’m spending some time playing catch up Online pounding this keyboard.
All I can say is, Great Stuff!
This just goes to reinforce what many of us have already known…
Being an active member of Better Networker and participating in the goings on around here Can Make You Money!
Thanks, and Keep Up the Great Work J, you’re awesome man.

Hey Jason,
I am the opposite extreme of this. I take waaaayyy too much time per article because I try to put my personality and style into everything I put out. I posted a few SEO articles with keywords and was never happy with just getting to the point.
I like to write long, and like to have a story for people to get involved in. Even though all the advice I get is to write shorter, say less and get to the point, so that I can get on with my day. I just like to do things the way I do.
I think the only way to speed up my article writing is to outsource and then not read it. LOL
[Reply]
April 23rd, 2010 at 12:59 pm
I think I have the same problem.
But, I sometimes have to sacrifice length to get an
article a day. And it’s hard to proof read articles properly
when you pump out crazy amounts of writing every day.

Morning Jason
Ditto! Now that I know what SEO articles are I’m a tad disappointed that the content is well, boring! Doesn’t quite fit right when it’s about ranking and not good content. There must be a better more valueable way to spend the time. Hey, maybe that’s just me. Looking forward to reading the article by Charles, thank you for passing that on. Have a great weekend

Not that I’m against SEO (I love it!).
I guess, you could say I’m against the abuse of SEO? Hmmm…
And, you have a great weekend too Gayle.

I’ll have to check his article out, Jason.
I know he wrote a really good one for the Inner Circle Newsletter not too long ago, so I can see how he’d be able to do it!
I’ve actually been on a mission to master PPC since I had a little conversation with you about it a few months ago…
Right now, I’m sitting at 19-23 cents a click and MAKING 9 bucks a lead!
One of the best things I’ve ever done is decide to come hang out over here.
Thanks for all the inspiration, Jason.
Have a great weekend!

Derek, you’re one of those guys who goes out and makes things happen. That’s awesome news.
And when it comes down to it, the rest is pretty much basic arithmetic.

On my way over to read Charles’ article. I actually enjoy article marketing but do believe in giving both quality and personality. Writing still is a bit of a challenge for me but one I will overcome with action and applied knowledge. Can’t wait to read Charles’ article. Have a great weekend Jason and thanks again for all you do. God bless you!

You’ll also love Ty Tribble’s content over at Better Networker… he talks about how you don’t even have to be a writer to get articles out there.
I think you would like his content too.

Jonathan Sweeting on April 23rd, 2010
Quality is king but I still can’t get over that $30,000 article, I have got to read that then come back and give feed back.
You are real consistent Jason, You
sure do practice what You preach.

It’s all habit Jonathan.
Can’t take much credit for that part. I would have a hard time not being consistent.
Charles has three articles over there and they’re all top-notch.

Wow wouldn’t it be great to make $30 000 from articles regularly then one wouldn’t need to write nearly as many anyway. I’m off to read his article now. Thanks Jason

Hah,
Yeah, forget about daily blog posts!
This is one of those things you aim for but don’t always hit on the first seven swings.

Hi Jason,
The article he wrote was very interesting. As I can see he used passion in his writing which made people open up to what he had to say.

Hey J
That was a great article.
I was really pumped up when
one of my articles was also featured
in the BN newsletter for the first time.
It goes back to an article you did
a little while ago about Better Networker.
The great content available and this article
from Charles is a prime example.
This is just one of a few Charles has written that I have read, you mentioned Ty Tribble,
also Michael Force and Richard Bravo are just
a few names why BN has such great content.
Article Marketing is extremely watered down but
if you read it on BN, it is worth looking at.
