January 4th

So I stopped by to tell everyone about a little experiement I am going to do with promoting my Associated Content articles. But first I have to say…

I signed up for AlphaInventions.com yesterday and my pages views went from 82 to 632! I need to find out more about this place now. I’m a little leery of that many hits in less than 24 hours – I hope it’s legit. Maybe each time it rotates through it gets another hit. I’ll do some asking around and research on it then report on it here or better yet I’ll write an article about it.

So back to my AC experiment. I got to thinking about why some of my articles are shootin gthrough the roof in page views while others aren’t doing so hot.

The only thing I could think of was that the 2 that are doing really well were ones I put links to in Yahoo! Answers.

So I am going to link all of my articles to answers at Yahoo! and see what happens. I am only going to put them on Yahoo! for the next two weeks.

Starting on January 18th, I will only use Answers.com.

March 1st – 14th will only be Answerbag.com

I will post my page view averages after each two week experiment. I realize their maybe residual from the one before it, but depending on increased results, we should be able to tell which one is the best.

Perhaps it will be a combination of all three.

If you have already done a simular experiment or routinely do this with a site, please leave your comments. Let us know how it has worked for you.
