Hi everyone, After reading a lot of the most recent posts, I just thought I would share some of my results, just as FYI. I have other adsense sites and have always done all of my keyword research the hard way with WorkTracker, SEO Book and Google Keyword Tool. After reading John's course and a lot of this thread, I purchased MNF. Let me just say that it has made my research so much easier. After I picked my keywords from MNF that I liked, I looked at the clicks and volume on SpyFu, I did some google searches to look at the listings and then I picked 5 out of the bunch and ran with them. I chose to complete all my site pages before uploading to the web. I loaded my first site around 8/10 and my second site on 8/16. I posted 2 articles to GoArticles for each site and my Ezinearticles are just sitting waiting approval like the rest of you. I am not new to Ezinearticles and I have not had them take this long in the past to approve articles. Maybe they all just went on vacation. I uploaded my 3rd site yesterday but have not had time to get articles completed for it yet. My first 2 sites are floating around on pages 1 and 2 of Google for the primary keyword and another of the keywords and on pages 4 and 5 for the other keywords. I have already started receiving clicks. This morning when I checked I had 4 clicks to the first site and 3 to the second site. My take for these was $3.02. I have also received one or two clicks a day for the first site for the last few days. I just logged on to my account to get the amount for you and found that I had already had 6 clicks to the second site today for earning of $2.01. My first niche is in the computer niche because that is something I am familiar with. My MNF info is as follows: Keyword 1: Exact Searches 1900 Listings 2860 SOC 6 CPC 8.55 Keyword 2: Exact Searches 1000 Listings 51 SOC 0 CPC 7.09 Keyword 3: Exact Searches 1900 Listings 509 SOC 0 CPC 2.68 Keyword 4: Exact Searches 1600 Listings 8600 SOC 9 CPC 5.12 Keyword 5: Exact Searches 2400 Listings 9720 SOC 5 CPC 4.04 In my content I blended in some of the other keywords that I had originally picked and chose not to use as pages. Now, don't over analyse all this. I'm just like John. I'm just sharing in the hopes that it will help someone. The other thing that might be of interest to you is that in checking my Google analytics stats I noticed that my site is being found in the natural search by other long tail keywords that I didn't even pick or consider. I followed those and found that my site actually ranks higher for those keywords than for the keywords that I picked. I have not yet gone to see what kind of search volume that those long term keywords get. Some may look at this and say well that's not so great. But, it's a start and it shows me that it can grow and be profitable with a little bit more effort on my part. I'll have to say that I have other sites that have been around a while and took a lot longer to start showing results. I just did the best I could in picking keywords and jumped in. My expectation is that the first 10 or so websites will be a learning curve for me and after that I should be better at all this. I'm like someone else on the thread said, as long as they pay for themselves and I'm getting better at this then I'm good with it. Hope my experiences so far will help some of you. Good luck to everyone. |

Hi Matt, What you're seeing is a Google bug --- *not* a Micro Niche Finder bug. We discovered several weeks ago that Google provides false result numbers --- sometimes on the exact same search ran twice in the same browser session --- when your Google preferences (on their web site, not in Micro Niche Finder) is set to return 10 results per page. We do not know if this is intentional, or if it is a software bug. We found in our testing that their numbers were much more reliable when the preferences are set to 100 results per page, so we reconfigured Micro Niche Finder to force Google to return 100 results at a time, and published an update. When I did the allintitle:"samsung flat screen tv" search (with the default 10 results), I got a count of 459 from Google. Upon clicking the page navigation links at the bottom of the page, on Page 8 the results count "magically" changed to 80. You can see what I'm talking about here: Created by Camtasia Studio 6 When I changed my preferences on Google's site to return 100 results per page, I got a result count of "1 - 84 of about 80"... Which, on the surface, appears to still be a Google bug. I've attached a screenshot of the search count after changing the preferences to 100. | |

| I think that's fantastic. I just bought my first two domains and have started writing content. Even if I could average $1 per day per domain over the long term I would haul butt to make 50 sites. Extra money is extra money.

Sorry Mrizos, I misread your question, I thought you meant number of searches.. You are absolutely right, I am getting the same thing here. Quote:

Thats interesting and in reality it isn't actually a bug. You don't even need to set google to 100 in preferences. Just do a normal phrase match search for "external hard drives reviews" in google and it tells you there are about 1840 results.. Click on the page 10 listing at the bottom and suddenly that changes to just 76 results.. This is pretty normal behaviour for google. For some reason they always show how many sites they have in their index when you do your search but when you start to go deeper they always cut off at a much much lower number of results. So MNF is actually returning the right results. Quote:

I've a hit road block... I was doing good, I have 3 sites up and running with about 3 articles submitted to ezinearticles and 3 articles at goarticles.com for one of the sites, the site was ranking in #8 and jumping around to #1 on page 2, now its gone from the search results completely its not even in the top 20 pages. I've been hearing about the "google dance" and that this kind of thing happens when a site is new but is there anyway to tell if I've been sandboxed? The only reason I'm worried about that is because I did about 30 back links from Angela's backlinks one day and I'm wondering if that was too many. (Although I doubt they have all been found by google yet) |

Ok everyone, I'm going to be locking this thread soon, for the following reasons: 1) There is already a TON of information here already, and enough pages of help. 2) I want to spend more time helping customers of my course. 3) Everything is here, so get to work! ![]() - John |

So if you buy the course in your sig you actually offer support on a $50 product? Sounds ridiculously good. I'm just weighing up how I could outsource this puppy, I'll go grab the course now. |

| ![]() So I'm guessing I should cancel the customised "I love John & Adsense" t-shirt order. Dang... On a more serious note, I just ordered, it won't let me in though, can you take a look and wang me a PM when you get a moment, password reset perhaps, I'm off to for some kip (UK Based). All the best. SH |

Thanks for posting this XFactor. I think you really layed down a philosophy for looking at things. Instead of trying to make that massive uber profit making site, go make a lot of little ones. Obviously it is easier to get a 100 sites making $100/mth, than it is to get one site to make $10000/mth. I also want to thank you for that excellent piece of advice to search products. It's an absolute gold mine of untapped keywords that get huge amounts of searches. I took me a few days to read this entire 30+ page thread, but I finished it today. As I was taking breaks during the reading I was doing keyword research finding all sorts of interesting keywords. I just purchased 5 domains to start this weekend on. I have a question, and it is open to anyone. I know you (John) said that if you see Amazon in position 1, that you RUN for that keyword. I've been looking at keywords that have Amazon at the first place and basically the top 10 is full of those aggregator sites (nexttag, bizrate, etc). But when I look at competiting sites (keyword in quotations) we are talking about quarter of a million competiting sites all the way up to million. So Obviously it looks pretty competitive, but you have the top 10 full of crappy aggregator sites. I'm just curious if anyone has a take on how well it is to compete in this type of situation. Obviously I'm going to test the grounds regardless of what people say, but I'm curious if anyone has done well in such a situation. |
