For those of you who earn money writing articles on the internet for sites like InfoBarrel or Squidoo, once your article is published, you only need to sit back and smile as the AdSense profit cash rolls in, right? Wrong! Getting an article published in only half the battle. The next step is to share your piece with the rest of the world - after all the world be a better place if everybody could learn from your brilliance? (I am kidding...kinda). If you use any of the following six tips, you will see an increase your number of readers.
If you have a chance to talk with an experienced author, they will tell you in confidence that they are earning between $0.25 and $2.00 per month for each "search engine optimized" article in their portfolio. This is a numbers game, and it is essential that you understand the direct correlation between the number of people readers and overall profitability. To be honest, you can expect to bring in roughly $15.00 per 1,000 views with Google AdSense on average. The interesting part of that statistic is that you can convert the earnings of other authors back to traffic. For example, if you hear that an article earned $1.00, it tells you that the article probably had approximately 66 page-views. That is a decent number for a person who has not researched their keywords, not independently promoted their articles and not tried to monetize their articles/posts with affiliate leads.
In other words, to make money writing articles, you must generate page views.
After I get confirmation that an article has been published, I do all 5 of the following suggestions:
1. If applicable, it does not hurt to update your previous articles with a link to your newest article. The key is that the link be natural and not crow-barred into your old posts. If done effectively, it helps a reader find related your content, which increases the probability they discover something they enjoy and would recommend to others. For example, I wrote an article on "Classic Bollywood movies" (which I wrote because keyword had good search volume). In this article, I said that Bollywood stars were India's equivalent of Brad Pitt or Johnny Depp. When I wrote that line, I had planned to write subsequent articles on these two actors. Once the articles on Depp and Pitt were written, I went back and updated the original Bollywood piece.
2. Many article hosting sites will feature authors and articles. If your site has this, you should be submitting articles as potential features. I write primarily with InfoBarrel, and this technique has resulted in 17 features and counting.
3. Set up a regular auto-tweet for your new post using a product like as TweetAdder or HootSuite. If possible, include the twitter handles of famous people who might be interested and retweet your article. This happened to me once - I wrote a piece about Howard Stern and his re-tweet generated almost 10,000 views within 24 hours.
4. Update your AdSense account with the url address of your new article. This will let you track the traffic and revenue for each article in your portfolio. Over time, you will recognize that certain article types out-punch their weight when it comes to income while ones you thought would be slam-dunks fall flat. This is necessary for your development as an author. Within Google Adsense, go to 'My Ads', then 'URL Channels'.
5. Post the article to various social media sites (StumbleUpon, Facebook, Pintrest, etc) to drive extra traffic to your site.
