2010: Is One Week Marketing Still Effective?

2010 March 24

If you’ve read my review of One Week Marketing, you’ll know that I highly recommend PotPieGirl’s action plan as an article marketing guide anyone can follow.

One Week Marketing was written in 2008 and there are some concerns about whether or not the guide still works in 2010.

The internet as it relates to marketing is a constantly changing environment and when something does change, the information contained in some guides can become outdated or even obsolete. This is part of the reason I like being a member of  Wealthy Affiliate: as things change, you’re always in the know because of the community.

I’ve said before in my review that One Week Marketing works because it gives you a clear step by step plan anyone can follow using a publishing platform that the author is familiar with – Squidoo.

Since the guide was written though, Squidoo has changed some of its policies and has enraged and even alienated many affiliate marketers including myself. This is because the site has put a ban on some legitimate topics which in their view were overused by marketers on the site. Some of these topics are in very profitable niches, for example, weight loss, make money online, get your ex back, just to name a few.

Therefore, wondering whether One Week Marketing still works in 2010 is a very admissible concern.

So Does One Week Marketing Still Work in 2010?

The thing about One Week Marketing is that there’s nothing that chains you to the use of Squidoo. Its not like say a Facebook marketing guide, where if something goes wrong with Facebook, the guide becomes obsolete.

There are many other web 2.0 sites like Squidoo and all you’ll have to do is just switch to one of these sites and the information would work just the same.  The site that comes closest in terms of power is Hubpages and that is what I currently use with the One Week Marketing strategy.

Hubpages is Squidoo’s closest competitor and has just about every benefit plus more. As a side note, this doesn’t mean that you can’t still use Squidoo. The site only regulates certain topics and I know for certain that there are people still reporting success using the One Week Marketing guide with Squidoo.

So in a nutshell, the guide still works very well. I’ve written a hub on using One Week Marketing with Hubpages to show you how you can forget about using Squidoo while still getting maximum benefit from the guide.
