Today’s 5 minute TV program sheds light on how an internet marketing contact of mine earns $200,000 each year. And you can do it too … as long as you’re prepared to tred the famously trashy path of the National Enquirer.
Right off the bat I can tell you that the first reason this contact of mine earns this much money each year is by focusing on just ONE traffic tactic. He uses article marketing, placing articles in article directories, and he writes and writes and writes.
Bottom line is that these articles drive traffic back to his simple sales pages, and he makes money. (They are extremely simple typeset sales letters that starkly and plainly state his offers. No frills.)
THE SECRET OF HIS SUCCESS IS THAT HE NOT ONLY FOCUSES ON ONE TRAFFIC METHOD, BUT HIS WRITING STYLE MIRRORS THE ‘NATIONAL ENQUIRER’, NOT WILLIAM SHAKESPEARE.
Here’s his rules for writing success: ‘Reach for Brangelina’:
1. He writes National Enquirer style headlines. He DOES NOT write like Shakespeare. He strenuously AVOIDS trying to write like Shakespeare, and instead he uses National Enquirer style content headlines and text. They are ‘Sensational!’ Yes, yes, William Shakespeare may have been the brilliant National Enquirer for the masses in his day, but not for today’s 30 second sound bite generation.
2. The articles are consistently enriched by his personality, and personality pays.
3. He applies intense, white-hot focus onto just one traffic generation sector … articles.
And best of all, he now has THOUSANDS of articles, and virtually never needs to write another because the existing ones continue to provide all the traffic he will ever need to his web sites. Furthermore, his articles are increasingly published by other webmasters who put his articles on their websites. The articles are all linked back to his web site, plus there are now THOUSANDS of web sites around the world who link to the articles as a recommended read.
A word of caution: It took a year of writing before he saw any real momentum and sales. But now his cash flows in as relentlessly as the misted Niagra Falls.

Thanks Jonathan. I think you make a great point (& with style
. EzineArticles has been the best source of traffic for a while, and with the apparent Google Social Media slap going round, those who haven’t built their own domain/brand, as well as not diversified their link sources (only social media sites) could very well be in trouble.
Keep up the great work. Looking forward to your next episode!
Stephen Hawking LOL!
Kudos to your prolific article marketing friend. Get him on as a guest some day, hmm?
Hi Jonathan
Great show again.
Josh advertised your traffic cafe site in his seminar tonight. He gave out the address to the group.
It keeps getting better.

Great informative and fun video, and thanks SO MUCH for also recommending me! (vipvirtualsols)
Twitter has made such a huge positive impact on me both personally and professionally, something I could have never predicted when I started tweeting last year. Not only that, I REALLY enjoy it everyday hanging out online with insightful, intelligent, funny and genuine tweeps.
Cheers,
Alex
ok, gonna tell us what he sells on his site?
Jonathan . . . You shouldn’t denigrate Shakespeare. In his day, he was the National Enquirer, using language everyone understood. And his subjects, tone, style, etc. was aimed at the massed.
Yes, he isn’t as relevant to us today because his language now is slightly archaic. But his writing is very National Enquirer. His subjects the same for his day. He should be modeled, but updated.
Don’t entirely agree John
Did you actually watch the video?
Shakespeare was certainly relevant to his time and the National Enquirer of
his day, but he’s certainly not the NE of today, which is the point
I am making.
(Please don’t think I dislike Shakespeare – on the contrary, I’m an faint actor
and just spent a day of awe at the globe theatre in London.)
Jonathan
My first time here and I enjoyed it tremendously.
You are providing excellent advice that I will
certainly follow.
