Article Marketing – Correlating Revenue To The Articles You Write






Over a period of time of say 6 months, an author of various articles can actually keep a graph of revenue 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 submitted at a constant figure.

In this particular case, say for example if you are marketing these articles to the article depositories such as ezinearticles.com or goarticles.com, your revenue that goes to the “y” axis is the payout derived from Google Adsense for the month by using solely article marketing alone, and the “x” axis will be the number of articles you have submitted.


The function of the regressed straight line will indicate that the revenue derived is a function of “m” which is the gradient or slope of the line, and a constant “c”.

The constant “c” is the value where 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 style of writing, his command of the language and factors that only the individual possesses.

By doing a correlation study between the revenue obtained and the number of articles submitted in article marketing, keeping other factors constant as far as possible, it will be possible to gauge the quality of the author’s writing. It will also be possible to form a rough basis to project further revenue to the number of articles planned for submission, ignoring other factors such as keyword selection, onsite and offsite search engine optimisation which are not included in the study, and only on the basis of the individual writing “flair” and abilities as measured by the constant “c”.




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?”.
