Making Lots of Money Forever with One Article

The first step in making the most money with your article is NOT writing the article. Before you even begin to tap away at the keyboard, there is another, very important task that you must do.

Keyword Research

There are any number of keyword research tools on the internet. My keyword research tool of choice comes direct from the BIG SE itself, Google. -- https://adwords.google.com/select/KeywordToolExternal -- you need a Google account to use this tool, but that is completely free and easy to set up. This keyword research tool gives you synonyms you can use for your keyword, the frequency of searches for that keyword, how many advertisers the keyword has, and other information. The best thing to do is pick keywords that have a low but steady number of searches, and a higher than average number of advertisers.

Writing the Article

The next step in maximizing your per article income is writing the article. Be sure to include your chosen keyword phrase in the article. The target percentage is between two and five percent. You can use a service like www.textalyzer.net or you could simply include the keyword 2-5 times per 100 words in your article. It is important to get the keyword in the title of the article, and at least once in the opening paragraph.

Time to Make Some Money With Your Article

The first step in making money with your article is submitting it to www.AssociatedContent.com. Be sure to submit it Non-Exclusive and for pay. Non-Exclusive means that you can submit your article to other places and make more money with it. Associated Content pays you upfront for the article based on a super-secret formula, and also pays per page view every month.

The next step is submitting your article to www.Constant-Content.com. Since you have already offered your article on AC, you can only try to sell the Usage Rights on CC. Set up your article carefully, as CC is pickier about accepting content.

Then, submit your article to www.Helium.com. Helium is a pay per view article directy where you will earn money based on how many people view your article. It is good to pair your articles with others of similar subjects to maximize your page views. Another similar article website is www.Gather.com. It is more of a social networking site and, instead of money, you are paid in Gather Points for your page views and other activities. These Gather Points can be exchanged for gift certificates.

Wait a Second! More Money-Making on the Way

Here is where things get interesting. So far, you have earned money for simply writing and posting your articles on several sites. Now, you have to join a few more programs in order to make more money.

The first program you should join is www.Google.com Adsense (Go to Google and click on "Advertising Programs" below the search bar. This is an advertising program that displays contextual advertisements on your website or blog. The second program you should join is www.ClickBank.com. This is an information product affiliate network. In layman's terms, that means you can earn money from selling other people's ebooks and reports. And you can earn a lot of money doing it too. To pick an affiliate program for each article, simply search the ClickBank Marketplace for a product that coincides with the topic.

Once you have signed up for these two places, it is time to get back to your article.

The Final Money Making Steps for Your Article

The next step in making more money with your article involved Google Adsense and blogging. It is very easy to visit www.Blogger.com and start a free blog about each topic you focus on. Simply post your articles, or snippets of them with links back to the whole article. You can include both Google Adsense ads and ClickBank links on your Blogger blog.

You can also post your articles on the following sites: www.BlogChex.com, www.BloggerParty.com, www.WritingUp.com, and Write Niche (http://wn.goldenprose.com). Be sure to fill in your Google Adsense publisher information and you will earn some money through there. You can again combine your ClickBank affiliate links in these blog posts.

There are still more ways you can earn more money with each article. One good, residual income program is www.Triond.com. Again, this site lets you earn based on page views to your article. They, however, want unique content. It is relatively easy to re-write your article to make it unique. Check out my article on the subject: http://www.associatedcontent.com/article/122149/how_to_rewrite_articles_for_unique.html You can also post your articles on any number of free article directories, such as www.FreeArticleSpot.com, or www.EzineArticles.com, with the ClickBank affiliate links included in your author's biography at the end.

So, there you have it. This is my plan for maximizing income from each one of my written articles. Hopefully, it can help others make more money as well.
