Article Submission - Correlating Your Profitability Against The Articles You Publish

 
Many people use article marketing to promote their websites. Using articles in this way can establish your credentials to share knowledge to the broader internet community.

If you are involved in this promotion method have you ever stopped to consider to what extent this activity of article marketing is bringing in income for your online efforts. If not, you are highly recommended to spend some time correlating revenue to article marketing.

While article marketing incorporates many factors such that an exact calculation of advantages in monetary terms is difficult, we cannot ignore the fact that when it comes to profitability of any online business, we must think in terms of dollars and cents.

Here statistics play a large part in comparing revenue to articles and I would like to propose a way that you can check your article marketing statistics.

Simple maths can help to project revenue to the number of articles we write, even though there are factors peculiar only to a particular author that are not common to any other individual.

Over a certain time of, for instance, 6 months, an author of different articles can graph income derived from article writing with the "y" axis as Revenue and the "x" axis of the graph as the number of articles written, each time keeping the number of article depositories to which the article was sent at the same figure.

For example if you are marketing these articles to sites such as ezinearticles.com or goarticles.com, your revenue that goes to the "y" axis is the payout derived for the month from using solely article marketing, and the "x" axis will be the number of articles sent.

Over a period of 6 months, you will have enough details on the graph to form a straight line that goes through most of the points on the graph where the line is represented by the equation y=mx+c

The function of the regressed straight line will denote that the revenue derived is a function of "m" which is the slope of the line, and a constant "c".

The constant "c" is the value at which the straight line cuts the "y" axis and this is the particular part which stems from the individual and is a representation of his abilities in writing, his craft of writing, his command of the language and other factors that only the individual possesses.

By studying income obtained against number of articles submitted, keeping other factors constant, it will be possible to assess the quality of the author's writing and form a rough basis to project further revenue to the number of articles planned for submission, ignoring other factors such as keyword choice, onsite and offsite search engine optimisation which are excluded from the study, and only on the basis of the individual's writing "flair" and abilities as measured by the constant "c".

This is by no means exact; but recording statistics and charts like these is useful in helping the marketer notice sudden trend changes, especially where performance falls.

He can then study what has caused this deviation and highlight details that may be otherwise missed.

Many use software to record earnings, but most scripts do not incorporate graphical analysis. When the charting is done manually the internet marketer notices sudden fluctuations or is able to think about what to alter to derive more revenue.

He can go deeper to ask this question: " Since the revenue is directly proportional to the slope of the revenue line, what factors will change the slope?".

Knowing these factors, he can vary them and test the changes.

By correlating revenue with articles written, the internet marketer can project profitability, no matter how rough the estimate. He has on his hands a set of statistics to use for further analysis, or in marketing terms "testing".
