How Many Articles Does It Take To Succeed With Link Building?
Difficult question. The answer is the number is different for every website. If you are in a highly competitive niche then it could take a lot of articles. If you are in a brand new niche that has little competition then it may not take long at all. But understand that virtually every niche online has a constant stream of new competitors trying to knock the No. 1 guy off the pedestal. That’s why link building is so important. In order to stay at the top you need to keep building new links. That takes time and money.
Article marketing is a slow process. But it’s a necessary process. You can’t just throw up a website and not build links to it and expect to stay on top forever. Without a steady flow of inbound links from articles and other types of websites, you are likely not to maintain good search positions over time.
Link building and article marketing go hand in hand like combat boots and automatic rifles. How many articles does it take to succeed? The answer is axiomatic: One more than it takes to fail.

Short, to the point, and brilliant.
I especially liked these two sentences:
“Link building and article marketing go hand in hand like combat boots and automatic rifles.”
“How many articles does it take to succeed? The answer is axiomatic: One more than it takes to fail.”
I have spent years trying to say it better, but you have beat me on all counts with this short and sweet post.
Thanks Bill, that’s quite a compliment coming from you!
