Is the Time to Get Traffic the Main Bottleneck between You and Nich Profits?
Hi all,
As we all know, there are dozens of ways to make money in IM. However, one of the most popular ways is to create a website, get traffic to it, and monetize it through Adwords, Amazon, Clickbank, etc.
Sure, you need the sites, but the most time consuming part of those is the content. Once you have all of the content together, you can just put a site together in no time. If you have the budget, you could even outsource a lot of the content.
Since most folks don't have the budget to do a thorough PPC campaign, I'm going to assume that organic SEO is the more popular way of driving traffic to websites.
Now, to my understanding, it can take weeks to rank for even long-tail keywords. Say you put up a 25 page website with each page targeting a different keyword phrase, are you going to have to build backlinks to those pages for weeks? That seems like it would take so much time, time which could be spend creating more content and building more sites.
Am I getting this wrong? Is the SEO for long-tail easy enough that you just build a few links to each page, like some article directory submissions and some manual blog comments and then move on?
When each page doesn't get many searches each month (in the case of low-comp. keywords), it seems like you would have to rank many pages in order to get a substantial income from them.
This brings me to the point of this post, how do you ever get momentum going when it takes so long to SEO?
Thanks a lot for any insights you can lend on the subject!
