You're getting this Silver Seller afffiliate newsletter because
you bought from me (thanks!), or subscribed. You can see all past
issues on my blog at http://silverseller.blogspot.com. Enjoy!






Normally I wouldn't give out this information about my own
articles, but as affiliates I think you'll benefit from this.

So, very quickly, I'm going to reveal the top 3 articles at Ezine
Articles from the 74 I've written so far, and explain more about
them so you can tailor your own articles to the success pattern.

Here they are, rated by viewing numbers:


16,560 views - How to Predict Winning Lottery Games in 30 Seconds
(http://ezinearticles.com/?How-to-Predict-Winning-Lottery-Games-in-30-Seconds&id=1446349)

8,023 views - How to Win the Lottery - Should You Use Lotto Quick
Picks, Or Select Your Own Numbers to Win?
(http://ezinearticles.com/?How-to-Win-the-Lottery---Should-You-Use-Lotto-Quick-Picks,-Or-Select-Your-Own-Numbers-to-Win?&id=2809139)

6,796 views - How to Win the Canadian Lotto 649 - A 30-Second Way
to Predict the Next Lotto 649 Winning Numbers?
(http://ezinearticles.com/?How-to-Win-the-Canadian-Lotto-649---A-30-Second-Way-to-Predict-the-Next-Lotto-649-Winning-Numbers?)&id=2768051)


Some points to note about these articles:

1. Traffic is through organic SEO. None of my articles have had
any help through backlinks etc, though the top article did
receive a couple of thousand views after I promoted it briefly in
a blog post. Traffic has been affected by the last Google slap
but is slowly working its way back to average readership.

2. There's no predictability of viewer count with any keywords.
In fact, the top-viewed article has less numbers of keywords than
the third-viewed, yet the most viewed article has nearly three
times the readership. My advice is to use keywords that describe
winning the lottery, and localise them... select one game and
concentrate all your articles around them as I did with the
Canadian 649 above.

3. The 4th article (not shown of course) has less than half the
views of the 3rd article. The 4th-viewed article also has a
5-star rating from viewers, against a 4-star rating for the top
article. So Ezine Articles stars don't have much effect on
readership.

4. Most of my articles - around 66 of the 74 - have less than
1,000 views each, even though the titles contain many of the
keywords in the top 3 above, in particular "how to win." It seems
while this keyword phrase is popular, it is not effective for
getting or increasing traffic.

5. The length of the title appears to make little difference to
views. Some of the <1,000 view counts also have long titles.


So, because there doesn't seem to be any logic to traffic counts
and keywords - do you continue to write articles with keyword
emphasis in the body?

The answer is a definite YES. And it's even more important now to
ignore the short term trends and gimmicks, and write quality
articles that last.

Here's some tips:

#1. Ezine Articles (www.ezinearticles.com) are only accepting
articles of a minimum of 400 words. I recommend going above that
figure - even up to 1,000 words. There is a theory that Google is
rewarding longer articles with high SEO prominence on the basis
they are more useful than short ones. A high word count can imply
a better quality article. The longterm advantage is that long
articles can later be broken down to several smaller ones for
inclusion in other article directories.

#2. Keep your titles keyword rich. I try and write longer titles
for the additional keywords that may be picked up... there is a
lot of serendipity going on from other areas of interest. For
example, a general article could be sprinkled with "Powerball"
keywords to get traffic for that game.

#3. Important - make your articles unique. This is probably the
best advice you can have. While I often suggest partially
rewriting my own articles for your own distribution, a better bet
is to do a full rewrite where no phrase or sentence is the same.
Google in particular has a sophisticated method of determining
originality, and as far as we know, downgrading it in the SERPs.
