Over 7000 Page Views on ONE AC Article – Yowzers!

by PotPieGirl on August 9, 2007 · 10 comments

Along with all the other things I do to make money online, I am also a Content Producer for Associated Content. AC pays up front for well-written, and well optimized, articles that are more than 400 words in length.

I started working with Associated Content at the end of May this year, and while I don’t write for them constantly, I have really enjoyed the site. AC also offers what they call a “page view bonus”. In a nutshell, each time your article gets viewed, you make money. No, it’s not a lot, but it’s just one more stream of passive income that I have coming in. The “work” part is done when I submit the articles,- now the articles are working for me!

And, THAT works for me! :)

As of this recent page view update, my articles have had over 13,000 page views. Not bad – it’s an extra $20 or so.

Here’s the thing that made me go “hmmmm” when I reviewed my page view stats on Associated Content. I have ONE article that has received over 7,600 views! I was innocently scrolling thru my stats…. a hundred here, coupla hundred there…. then “WHOA! 7,697?!?!?!?”

That ONE article is responsible for over 60% of ALL my page views?!?!?! How could THAT happen?

Thing is, I remember stumbling across that keyword. I was doing my usual browsing thru my keyword tool, browsing thru Google…browsing thru AC….and this phrase seemed pretty “un-tapped”, but was highly searched for. So, I took a chance, researched the content…and wrote an article on it.

Associated Content paid me less than $5 for that article….I’ve already made twice that in the form of page view bonus…in a VERY short amount of time.

This makes me happy :) (<--- See me smiling?)

Seems I’ve got a few readers of my blog now so—-

Let’s have our first contest.

Who ever figures out WHICH article it is, and posts it here in the comment section first, will win a free copy of my Squidoo Profit System e-book package.

Comments don’t automatically post, so don’t freak if you don’t see your comment instantly. I will approve/publish all entries – I promise.

Contest runs until someone figures it out!

Anyone interested?

Good luck!

I’m going to guess Why Gorillas Don’t like Cell Phones – Illegal Mining For Rare Ore Used In Cells Is Pushing Them Out of Their Habitat since it’s a little different from the rest of the articles you have listed.

Nope =)

Got another guess?

D Smith August 11, 2007 at 2:18 am

I’m going to guess that it’s Unusual Baby Boy Names – Common Sense Versus Colorful Immagination

potpiegirl August 11, 2007 at 2:29 am

Nope, d smith, not that one, either. That article is quite new. I sure HOPE it does as well as the “mystery article”! =)

As I’m new to this blog I have to say, that I liked reading it a lot and just want you to keep up the good work.

As for the Mystery Article I have my guess on:
Important Cosmetic Plastic Surgery Questions to Ask Yourself

Hope I win the package. It sounds really good, but buying is a bit difficult here for a 16-year old from Germany that isn’t allowed to have a credit card or PayPal :(

Sorry, Matthias – that’s not it either =(

Keep trying!

Hi Jennifer,

I’ll take a guess if it’s not too late. Is the answer to the One AC Article “Simple Tips for a Super Sedu Hairstyle”?

Your blog is incredible. I’ve spent an hour reading many of your posts today and have picked up many tips and confirmed a few thoughts along the way about Squidoo as well.

I have a feeling it’s the Preparing For Marine Boot camp one. Wow.. this is an old post!

Elizabeth Grimes October 14, 2008 at 2:57 pm

Has anyone won this yet? If not, here’s my pick:

“Top 5 Elvis songs For Your Wedding First Dance”

Mirza July 6, 2009 at 2:43 am

I think the winning article is:

Win the Lottery! – How to Choose Pick 3 Lottery Numbers Without Guessing

I hope so, I never win anything…here’s hoping this will be my first!!

Cheers!
