Recently an experiment was done on the Premier Online Article Free Submission site. This experiment was done with 300 articles on a variety of subject pertaining to over all society and pop-culture. These articles were written to see what kinds of things were really on people’s minds while they surfed the Internet or things, which they themselves truly cared about privately.
Each article in the experiment I conducted contained a pre-title such as; “What if...†or “Read This Article if You Want...†Immediately I noticed a few articles had very poor article view ratings; articles read by less than 100 people, while my average over 3050 articles written is about 262.29508 article views. Up slightly by 4.51632 due to high Thanksgiving Internet Traffic Peaks. Today I am already up by 0.01377 in the first three hours of morning peak Internet traffic EST. Now then mind you I chose EzineArticles.com for my scientific experiment to document the empirical proof of my findings because, I thought it was important to know the truth.
The data completed in my experiment is interesting and appears to be somewhat skewed, my first thought was; I wondered if certain articles you treat somehow differently causing them to miss the spidering of search engines? But they are not on EzineArticles.com. I further questioned this and asked; “Is EzineArticles.com is treating some articles differently?†Still that isn’t it. So what is it?
As I do my research here, by trying to gage the Internet Reader and Surfer to figure out what they are really concerned with, it appears that Internet Surfing subjects goes in cycles. Almost as if there is a global type consciousness where millions of Internet Surfers all at the same time start searching the same types of things. Almost as if there is a pattern of cycles that occurs. Taking the Internet Guru, experts who tell us of key words and titles in their articles does not work any better than choosing cool subject matter. In fact my article views beat out most all the so-called experts, yet my topics are all over the place.
Some might say that this is just the finicky Internet or Search Engine "Dance" as some of the long-term real world experienced Internet folks call it? Indeed that appears to be more so than those who are into article optimizing thru titling and key words over actual content. Sure you need to be smart about how you are writing what you write, yet it is obvious from my results that the best plan is to just write articles which are meaningful about the subjects you choose and then re-read them to see if you can change a few things here and there. My point is worry more about what you write than how you write it, write a lot and be careful to write well.
Although the charting of my data for article views of 3050 looks erratic, it does not look anymore erratic than Alexa’s Website Traffic heartbeat graphs. So, when gauging such things, I would say do not listen to anyone who claims to be a Guru of Article Marketing until they have written 700 articles. Because it took me 500 articles to see something was starting to appear like a trend and 600 articles to figure out how to use this knowledge. And with 3050 articles and 800,000 article views, well I get it now and well, it seems the experts caused me more harm than good. Had I simply concentrated on the fundamentals and writing more articles from the very beginning like I have been recently my calculations put me at 323.93443 article views per article or 988,000 article views, which would mean I would have 1,000,000 Article Views by Christmas, whereas now it is will take me until Mid-February to get to 1 million article views. So please be thinking here.
