Conduit Site with Unexpected Results
Like many Internet Marketers, I often find myself going in too many directions at the same time. When I catch myself doing this, sometimes projects get shoved to the back burner for a few weeks so that I can refocus on my primary stuff.
About five weeks ago I had a little time, so I thought I would try to set up a review site as suggested in Chris Rempel’s “Conduit” method. I played with some templates myself, but finally picked up his package of conduit-style templates, which included a Wordpress theme.
I picked a niche with lots of affiliate products, and after setting up Wordpress and the theme, I spent a few minutes entering the information for the first product. This is right about when I put this project on the back burner.
I didn’t set up analytics.
I didn’t bookmark my post (I did have the Wordpress pings turned on).
In fact, I didn’t do anything other than create a single page/post using the methods Chris teaches.
This afternoon I pulled up my ClickBank tracking code summary and noticed the code from that single link on the lone page has had 17 hops this month and one $70 sale! Obviously the number is statistically insignificant, but it proves that Conduit style review pages do in fact pull in long-tail traffic - buying traffic.
I’m going to move this project up in the queue so that I can see what it will do with 20, 30, or even 60 pages.
