Did Eurekster Commit Swicki-cide?
Filed Under website traffic | 1 Comment
If you’ve been using a Swicki from Eurekster, you may have noticed that they’ve been down recently. Are they dead? Speculation by some is that they may not come back up. I know that a number of webmasters were using them and some had claimed that it was working well for them and reported big traffic stats.
To be honest, I never really figured out the Swicki thing. I had been using one on one of my sites, and I noticed that I only saw traffic from it in my referrer stats when I had it on my site. Was it my site that was generating the traffic and then sending it to Eurekster, which was then sending it back to me? If so, then there was actually no additional traffic boost from it since my site was generating the traffic in the first place.
I’ve been increasing image traffic to one of my sites in a dramatic way, largely by using an LOL builder and then simply linking to those images, adding the right alt tags and related keywords and links, and bingo, lots of traffic. The LOL builder I’ve been using, primarily, is icanhascheezburger.
I keep seeing mistakes with the article resource box, so obviously someone is not reading my blog posts. They’re also not reading any of my forum posts since I keep saying this over and over again. So, I’ll outline for you here 3 of the biggest mistakes I see.
Article Marketing To Increase Website Traffic
Filed Under article marketing, website traffic | 1 Comment
Here is my article marketing process and how I use it to increase website traffic.
Here I will outline my process. We’ll start with a view from 30,000 feet so you can see what the main points are, and then we’ll get more detailed.
I want you to be able to take away from this the exact steps that you need to succeed. But I also want you to understand why we’re doing it this way so that you can tailor it to your individual needs without losing the effectiveness.
I see a lot of mistakes out there. Are you making any of these yourself? The good news is, most of these are easily fixed.
1. Bad Habit #1 – Failure to Launch
You know, this is the guy who says he’s an article marketer, but really isn’t. He’s going to write articles but never quite gets around to it. He comes up fragments of ideas with little snippets of one or two sentences, but never gets enough together to publish a full article. Is this you?
Here’s a simple Internet business model (and a formula for success) that I urge you to seriously consider. This post came about because I noticed that Alok Jain had written in his blog that he had recently re-read Robert Kiyosaki’s "Rich Dad, Poor Dad" and was going to change his business model to accommodate some of the concepts.
The main purpose of article marketing is SEO, plain and simple. No matter what anybody tries to tell you, the objective of submitting articles is to get backlinks to your site. OK, so it has more value than that, but its primary purpose is SEO.
Blogger? Yep. I know, everyone’s hooked on WordPress and people are often talking about how "SEO friendly" it is. Actually, that’s true, but it does take some work to get WordPress in an optimal configuration.
Top Article Marketing Resources

Here’s my list of my top article marketing resources. I use these on a regular basis to generate traffic, and you should too.
The Unique Article Wizard
I’ve more than doubled traffic to one site, nearly tripled traffic to another, and increased traffic by over 100 visitors a day to another using this article marketing network. My almost immediate increase in Adsense income within a month of using the tool for the first time more than paid for the service. They submit unique versions of your article to hundreds of article directories, websites, and blogs.
I switched to the Blue Zinfandel WordPress theme for a number of reasons. I mentioned in another post that I had a few problems getting Mandigo to work exactly the way I wanted, and I had some issues with some plugins as well. For one, I had to switch to the Ultimate Google Analytics plugin since the one I was using was causing comments to “disappear.”
