Okay, there are now lots of stories, blog posts and articles regarding Bum Marketing but what is Bum Marketing, really?  According to online business aficionados, Bum Marketing is not selling anything nor promoting anything but just article-writing. In a way, Bum Marketing is the same as Article Marketing.   You write an article on a topic that has a lot of potential in a niche market. What you want is that article listed in Google or with other popular search engines then, you wait for a buyer to read your article, and then click on your embedded affiliate link. When the buyer clicks on your link and buys, you make money and that’s basically it. If you’re not good at creating websites or selling products but you are good at writing or you just want to write for the heck of it, you can be well on your way to success in Bum Marketing.
