What is Bum Marketing?

Bum Marketing is really catching on, and the cool thing about it is that it works, it's cheap and most of the time totally free. I love article marketing, and bum marketing is a great way of making money, but I also think it's important that you write articles linking to your own websites as well so you're building links to your sites and growing your online business. If you've already seen the multitude of Bum Marketing reports, ebooks, audios and other paraphernalia, you already have a pretty good idea of what Bum Marketing is. Bum Marketing is a step by step process and one of the key components is keyword research and niche selection. The main advantage of bum marketing is its simplicity.

In bum marketing, which is also known as article marketing, you simply aim to create articles for keywords that have no or low competition on the Internet. Before you can start writing articles or researching keywords, the second step of Bum Marketing is ensuring that there is a good product to promote which accurately fits your chosen niche. Sites like Clickbank and Commision Junction are good resources for finding a good product. Finding affiliate sites are actually very simple, become affiliated with other marketer's websites. Find affiliate products that sell like crazy.

As I mentioned earlier, Clickbank is a great place to start looking for products to promote, and articles can be submitted to any number of online article directories. Here's how it works: You write keyword optimized articles about under-exposed niches, submit them to popular article directories and websites, let the search engines index them, earn affiliate commissions, get opt-in signups or make money from selling your own products. A niche market is a focused, targetable portion (subset) of a market sector. By definition, then, a business that focuses on a niche market is addressing a need for a product or service that is not being addressed by mainstream providers. If you have a great niche, find awesome keywords and write compelling articles, that's all fine and dandy, but you aren't going to make money if there's not a great product to promote.

In Summary:

Step 1: Find a product to promote

Step 2: Keyword Research

Step 3: Create an article based on low-competition keywords and phrases

Step 4: Post to authority sites that google loves

Step 5: Index your articles and increase web site traffic

I use a free keyword tool called Keyword Analyst for most of my keyword research. Keyword Analyst will generate a list of the most popular keywords from a keyword or keyword phrase you enter. The list will also tell you the number of scans that particular keyword or phrase produced in a day (popularity). Individual keywords can be added to the list as well. You can also find out the (competition) of each keyword produced from the 3 major search engines (Google, Yahoo and MSN). Keyword Analyst also allows you to save your results that can be imported to a spreadsheet. Check the Resource Box for additional information.

Bum Marketing is basically a way to make great money quickly and easily with super easy tactics. Bum Marketing is easy enough almost anyone can start out with and one of the cheapest methods to get traffic to your site. And the best thing about Bum Marketing is that it's free to do.
