I like this day on your blog, think it was how I met Aaron.
Don’t start a make money online blog is worth reading especially if you are thinking that is the way to go- think again after reading this article.
I found Daily Blog tips the best of this lot and have bookmarked it- great on how to tell a story on your blog.
Courtney’s Just how accurate are Keyword Research Tools anyway? well worth reading if like me you are not too wrapped in keyword research tools.
The post from Andy Beard may be just linkbait but i think both Andy and ken will probably benefit by one comment where the reader is making $10k a month by using Site Build It
As one could easily spend whole days reading interesting material online, it is nice to get some guidance from somebody. Recommended read lists like this one are a great guide to focus your online reading and saves time for not having to read the articles that the editor of the list decided not to recommend.
I personally find that I only need one or two “experts” per interest category to give me weekly reading suggestions to keep me going. I only found out about this blog site yesterday and tell you, this blogs-summery-feature is enough to keep me coming back!
It was yesterday that this blog, somewhere whilst I was browsing, opened my eyes to pay more attention to the comments. Until now, I always skipped comments and also rarely bothered commenting myself. WELL I WAS WRONG. I got way more insights from reading the comments in Andy’s post on the “Word Press Attack”, than had I only read the posting by itself…we live and learn.
So Aaron, thank you for doing us a great service!
Wow, what a lot of interesting reading. Those links will keep me going for a while.
We are now kick off to blogging and creating some good posts.Get some readers and opt-ins. And becoming a professional blogger is a challenge to everybody(off course if you want to earn remuneration from blogging) and I find this blog is very……..very helpful,resourceful,just like mentoring.I just fall in love with this site.
As I go along with this blog,I sometimes get lost and find it difficult to navigate.I know after some days I’ll get habituated.
OK — so we have the establish MMO bloggers making the argument that there are too many MMO blogs. Basically, they are saying that they do not want additional competition. Well, of course they don’t. Neither did Yahoo — but that didn’t stop Google.
If DatMoney really thinks the MMO niche is too saturated, does that also mean that he should fold up shop and bow out?
Mark,
There is a basic misunderstanding about any of the self-help niches: That they are too saturated for anyone to make any money. The reality is just the opposite.
Any time you can reach your target market with your marketing message at a profit, you can make money. Self-help markets are huge and allow you to capture a very profitable share of the market.
Self-help markets have large numbers of established marketing channels where you can easily reach your market for very low cost. Comparing that with, for instance, Civil War re-enacting or bell collecting and you can see why small niches are sometimes harder to reach.
