It never ceases to amaze me how people almost always expect instant results with all their online business and marketing efforts.
They write one or two articles and expect to see flood of traffic to their sites.
After all, that's what the "guru" promises.
For that I'd say the hype built by the sales letter contributes a lot to the perception and mind set.
I ridicule about this fact with a friend.
Perhaps it's a good thing.
Otherwise, we might be out of business sooner rather than later.
I learned this the hard way.
Even up to this point, it is very difficult for me to avoid starting a new venture "part time".
The idea of getting one business after another that produces certain amount of passive income can't be more exciting.
But you can take the shortcut by following the advices of others who have been there and done that.
The key to article marketing is really easy.
It is consistency.
As an expert in a topic, you need to write articles consistently and regularly.
According to a dictionary, consistency means the property of holding together and retaining its shape.
In article writing and marketing, it means keeping the goals in mind and neglect any other possibility.
Any online marketing strategies work the same way.
You can't change something that are pure scams to produce positive results.
However, if you get your hands on a solid strategy that really works, it often pays big if you focus on it and do what it takes to get results.
Believe me, article marketing is one strategy that works.
Stop jumping from one traffic strategy to another and start doing.
