As promised, here is a follow-up on my previous post about
the success I have been having with Submission Works. I have now just completed
my second month with the program and have to say that I continue to be blown
away with the results. I have made a few changes, though, which is what I will
outline here. The changes I have made have nothing to do with the Submission
Works program, but rather the websites that I am promoting. Last month I spoke
about the Wordpress page that I had created to test the Submission Works
program, and it’s that particular page I will be focusing on here.
I had used that site to market a program that I thought was
failing, only to see it brought to life again via Submission Works. The success
of that page prompted me to fill up all seven slots in the member’s section of
SW, just to see how my other programs would compare against the one I had used
in month one. The results of those were actually better than what I received
from my Wordpress page, prompting me to think that perhaps I was still doing
something wrong over there.
Once again I decided to dig a little deeper to see why that
site wasn’t performing as well as the others. Let me just remind you, though,
the Wordpress site was still making more than enough to cover the cost of my SWsubscription, but it was still under performing when compared to the other sites
that I was marketing. Each of those other programs was receiving a massive
boost in traffic, but the conversion rates were a good deal higher than at my
Wordpress site, which I actually believed to be the best of the programs I was
promoting.
The number of new paying members at my other sites took a
dramatic upturn after plugging the URL’s into Submission Works, but the
conversion ratio at the Wordpress site fell far behind. I decided to dig deeper
and found that the number of unique US-based I.P. addresses at the other sites
was a good deal higher than at my first site. I could only assume that there
had to be something in the wording or layout of the Wordpress site that was
somehow causing the software at SW to send more overseas visitors than US.
I decided to take a little of the money that I had made from
my SW earnings, and hired an SEO guy and a writer to work on my Wordpress site.
I had the new information up and running in a little over a week, and to say
that the turnaround was dramatic would be an understatement. The number of US
visitors increased almost immediately, as did my conversion ratio. This taught
me the lesson that my writing and SEO skills were perhaps not as sharp as they
should be, and that my time should be better spent doing the things in my home
business that I know I do well. Thanks to Submission Works, I am now making
enough money every month to start outsourcing those tasks that do not fit my skill
set.

cool thanks for the info. I'm looking at reviews right now to decide whether this is worth it or resort to a ppv or opt agecy. SW would be good for all my sites while the ppv is one at a time i believe.
