Things are getting interesting.
Through the meticulous efforts of the better half, we already have 4 articles on Ezinearticles.
I’m still not getting any traffic from the search engines. Traffic is 100% from articles. The direct traffic mostly came from me and the other half, when we wanted to see how our site looks like after editing.
Not phenomenal, but decent, so I’m leaving it as it is for now.
Earnings-wise, we’ve made a total of $0.32, purely from adsense.
I was getting slightly disappointed that we weren’t getting sales from the affiliate products we were promoting. I wanted to suggest to the better half some ideas about how to bring more attention to our affiliate links.
In order to do that, I wanted her to understand more about what we’re promoting, so I clicked on the link, and…
*BAM!*
404 Error!!
And I got a huge scolding from the better half for screwing up when I’m supposed to be the “expert”.
Turns out that Gotrythis wasn’t setup properly on my server.
Horrified, I went to check out my links on this blog as well, and…
*BAM*!
I couldn’t access them either!
How wonderful.
The better half wants me to make a public apology to all the visitors of the blog, which I curtly refused.
Huge lesson learnt though; always check your links!
Anyway, the action plan for now is to slow down on articles submission.
I might get her to drive some traffic from Yahoo! Answers, but mainly, now what we want to do is to witness the power of 3 Way Links.
Again, to learn what it’s all about, read SEO Myths. Why not? It’s free!
I apologize for the goofup. I guess this is what happens when careless people do live case studies.
Stay tuned for more good stuff to come.
