So, I signed up and I am going to complete a case study online that others can track and use decide if they should sign up to the service.  Now if the service does do well I might decide to promote their affiliate program, but only if I see positive results.

Case Study:

I am going to attempt to rank a 4 word keyword that has a moderate amount of competition.  This site is brand new so it is not ranking for at all.   I don’t want to expose the niche but the keyword is “Learn how to xxxxx”

I will be updating this post with results over the next couple of months with the rankings.  I intend to submit 1 article every day with the target keyword and one other related keyword.  I will also be submitting to Ezine Articles.

Wish me luck….

2/23/2010 Update:

A quick update.  So far I am liking the interface of the program and rewriting articles seems to be fairly easy.  I have submitted 6 articles so far and my first one has been distributed 8 times.  Overall, I have 15 links in the system.  I have yet to see any trackbacks for the links that are posted, but it is still early.  No rankings yet, but again it is still early.

3/11/2010 Update:  I have started to see quite a few pingbacks from other blogs so my links must be counting.  I haven’t seen a big move in the SE rankings, but i didn’t really expect to until month 2.  I have realized that I don’t like re-writing articles to be used in the program.  I am trying out John Ledgers The Best Spinner and doing a case study on it.

3/28/2010 Update – Ranking have started rising and this is all though use of AMA and EZA.  I am hoping that within the next week I can get on page one for my targeted keyword in Yahoo.  I am betting it will take a bit longer for yahoo.  Even though I will continue to update this thread, I am ready to say that AMA works.  You simply have to put in the work of creating and spinning content on a consistent basis.  Here is a picture of my ranking so far:
