Hello, dear readers!

As You might already know I am into Article Marketing, that’s how I actually started making money online - and never stopped, because obviously this model works.

Well, I started getting fed-up with writing articles… I am usually able to produce 3-4 articles every hour - but you have to agree this is not a fun task. Today I tried something different and I had 25 articles within 2 hours… You want to know the secret?

The speech recognition software.  I got a copy of Dragon Naturally Speaking ($99), installed it on my computer and plugged in the microphone. Shortly after I opened up EzineArticles.com, opened up the most viewed and most published articles in my niche of interest, and then simply retold the articles, in my own words into the microphone. That’s where the magic comes in; the software automatically typed whatever I was saying into a word document…

I found this activity so fun, that I did all 25 articles. In 2 hours I had 25  unique content, keyword optimized, original articles! Small corrections were done within 10 minutes – that’s it!

Now the thing is, as I mentioned in some of my previous posts. English is my fifth language. I don’t speak naturally and I have an accent (Eastern European, for some reason people often think I have an Italian accent) I also speak it slower, so for those who speak English as their first language, 10 articles an hour is not a limit! I am sure you folks could do 15-20 articles every hour without ever looking back

Success and Happiness,

Alex

Information products make a big part of Internet Marketing; weight loss e-books, forex trader software, online courses and so on sell millions of copies every year. Coming up with your own information product to sell online is not as hard as you might think.

Me friend Annie has a little kids who likes coloring. Annie knows that I spent most of my day online so she asked if I could find some coloring templates that could be printed since she couldn’t find much. I started Googling all the possible keywords and was surprised to not find much either, however I found one huge pack on e-Bay. For $5 I purchased about 300 image templates that the kid could color… but there was another thing - the package came with resale rights.  Annie was very thankful and her kid was happy with all the cars, animals and dinosaurs she had to color!

Few months went by and I stumbled upon that package in one of the folders on my computer. Out of curiosity I went to Adwords Keyword tool and did a few searches to find out there were more than enough searches for such product! I purchased a keyword optimized domain name and made a short sales page using free website builder Weebly.com. There was a simple promotion using social bookmarking sites, a Squidoo lens, few articles and it took off! I am not making a killing but 5-10 sales every week at 15$ per sale is good enough in this case. I am sure I could make much more money with this but I have many more important and time consuming projects… eBay offers hundreds of info products dirt cheap, just repackage them, purchase a domain name and suddenly you are an information product publisher! Pretty easy, isn’t it?

I’d like to give you another example.

At some point I stumbled across a few blogs where people were talking about baking bread at home. Once again, there weren’t any info products available online so I decided to create one just for the heck of it. The big issue was that I did not know ANYTHING about baking bread. After five or six hours spent browsing forums, blogs, yahoo answers I was able to come up with a list of most frequently asked questions on the subject. Once I had the list I went to visit a small local bakery shop, the baker also happened to be the owner. I told him there were many people online interested in baking bread at home but they had a few questions and concerns and It would be awesome if he could help me out with it, I even offered to pay him for his time, but he refused the money! So I turned on my digital voice recorder, read the list of questions and got all the answers… Now I had a $27 AUDIO info product… but that’s not all.

Three weeks later the baker called me and asked if I could film him baking bread; from mixing flour with water all the way to tasting the baked bread. I was hyped and of course agreed.  I came to the bakery with my $300 camcorder and a $20 tripod I purchased at a second hand store that’s how I became a film producer… Okay I didn’t become a producer but I made this video and was able to sell it on the back-end of the audio product for an additional $17. Guess how many people also bought the video? Almost all. The only condition was I had to add the credits at the end of the video, baker’s shop name and address - this wasn’t a problem for me!

As you can see, these two ways of coming up with info products are very cheap if not free, not time consuming and very effective. Nothing is stopping you now from becoming an info product publisher!
