Bum Marketing or the Bum Marketing method is a simple and virtually foolproof variation of article marketing that allows you to earn money online from affiliate product commissions, sales of your own products, AdSense ads, etc.
Here’s how it works: write keyword-optimized articles on low-exposed niches, submit them to popular article websites, let search engines select them, earn affiliate commissions, get opt-in subscriptions, or make money selling your own. products.
Bum Marketing was invented and popularized by Travis Sago of http://www.bummarketingmethod.com. A lot of people call Bum Marketing, Bum Marketing because it’s supposed to be so easy that even a homeless man can do it. I don’t disagree, however I think the real reason it’s called Bum Marketing is because it’s one of those extremely rare occasions where you don’t need money to make money.
In a nutshell, this is how it works:
1. Find an untapped low competition niche.
2. Next, find an affiliate program with a complementary product that pays a decent commission.
3. Next, do your research and find low competition keywords that you can write articles about.
4. Next, write a series of articles based on your low-competition keyword or keyword phrase.
5. Then you submit your article to popular article editors for Google and the other major search engines to pick up.
6. And finally, you earn affiliate commissions, get voluntary subscription subscriptions, make money selling your own products, or earn income from AdSense.
If you follow the simple steps, you are practically guaranteed to make money online; all you need is time.
One of the main goals of Bum Marketing is to have your articles appear on the first page of Google, Yahoo, MSN, AOL and others. The easiest way to accomplish this is by writing keyword-rich articles for niches and keywords that are not overcrowded. A placement on the first page of Google will ensure that your article is one of the first to be seen every time someone searches for the keyword or niche your article is targeting.
Some of the main benefits of Bum Marketing include
o Earn money online in less than a week, practically guaranteed
o It does not have to cost money
o It is a surefire way to earn affiliate commissions
o Develops brand and name recognition
o You don’t need a website, an email list, or even a reputation
o It is extremely low risk: all you have to lose is time
The point of Bum Marketing is not to get people searching article directories to click on your articles. The Bum Marketing method is to get as many decent quality articles as ranked in search engines to drive traffic to your affiliate links, sales pages, AdSense pages, subscription pages, etc. The main objective is that your articles are among the top 10 Google results, that is, on the first page of Google.
That way, when someone searches for your keyword phrase on Google and the other major search engines (Yahoo, MSN, AOL, etc.), your article will appear. They then click on it, read it, and hopefully click on the links contained in your resource box.
As long as you have time to spend, Bum Marketing is one of the only surefire ways to make money online. In fact, I don’t know of anyone who has tried Bum Marketing with perseverance and won nothing.
