How big are your Micro Niche sites?

I have five micro niche site, where three of them are still very new but my two older sites have over 30 pages while my newer ones only have about 10 pages. I plan on adding more and more pages to my sites consistently until they have about 80-90 pages each.

So far I have scheduled posts up until the end of September.

Only 2,500 - 5,000 words of content, but 30x of these are bringing me in $300+ a day, so why complain?

raxr, i can understand your comment because what Jeremy has done is quite astonishing. However i would like to back him up here though. I have been chatting with him on Skype for quite a while now, and although i have never seen his proof of earnings i have no reason to doubt that he is making that much.

He has shown me how he makes these sites and his way of back linking them. In just over 3 weeks I am sitting at #7 for a term that is currently bringing me in £3-5 a day. When i rank top 3 i expect to be making a lot more, so you can see the potential.

The fact Jeremy has 30+ of these sites there is no reason why he is not making that much in a short time, once you get the hang of the process you can make lots of these sites quickly which is what i intend to do when i have the time.

Why wouldn't you want to add another dynamic stream to your income? If it weren't for people who teach others AND CHARGE A FEE for coaching there would be a lot less people making money on the internet these days.

The best thing you can do when you create a solid income stream is to diversify it and create new ways of making money. Coaching people in adsense is a perfectly legitimate way to do that, and I do believe that once you're making a couple hundred a day at adsense that would qualify you to teach a few things to people who make a couple bucks a day, (or less).

Saying that his 'low fee' is suspicious is pretty n00bish. If he charged more nobody would buy his coaching, if he charged less he would be wasting his time. And no, I have never paid Jeremy for anything (nor has he paid me for anything). I have no vested interest in propping him up, but I saw this thread and people accusing him of being a fraud, to which I have to reply because I have seen that he is not a fraud with my own eyes.

A lot of people say "I did exactly what you said and it doesnt work so its a scam" about all sorts of courses, people, and methods, but the problem is that most n00bs don't actually do what they were taught but think they are following the instructions (or adding their own n00b twist to it that they think will work better, but in fact it does not).

I've seen it many times myself, I can explain to people a thousand times the way I do my affiliate sites, and then the person I was trying to help out comes back and says THIS DOESNT WORK, I HAVENT EARNED ANY COMMISSIONS. Then I see their site and they haven't followed the instructions. Sometimes they haven't even made an attempt to follow the instructions, but for some reason they still have the nerve to say the method doesn't work, even though they are too n00b to actually do it properly.

Now, I haven't followed Jeremy's posts on the WF and I have no idea really what he's been saying in other threads here, but I HAVE seen proof of Jeremy's earnings via screenshots and daily communication, and he and I have been helping eachother out over skype for many months now. I get almost daily updates from him (and he gets updates from me too) and I've watched his online empire grow to the size of mine, and then double it in the matter of a couple months, the real explosion for him has been in the last few weeks though.

And to answer the actual thread topic, I have several affiliate sites earning commissions daily, and I've now set up 4 adsense sites following jeremy's style.

In total I make about $120 on average per day, but my days still swing from $50-$320 per day depending.

Making money with mini-sites is not dead. Far from it.

Guys, you don't have to go all menstrual and menopausal on each-other in my thread.
Just keep it close to the topic. I appreciate your input.

It depends on the site really.

If the site is a clear winner then I will start adding as much content as possible to scale it up, if it's just so-so, then I'll just leave about 6 posts on them then move on to new sites or sell the old ones.

First, to answer the OP, our sites are generally 7-12 pages of information. We primarily target a primary keyword, but go after some secondaries or long tail KW's with the additional content. The sites are fine because we're so closely targeted...the larger sites have too many keywords to worry about so our niche sites can usually beat them out.

In regards to Jeremy or InTheMaking, I have no idea what he's making, but i can say that you can get from $0 to 3K in around 6 months. Can you do worse? Of course...can you do better? I'm sure...so I don't think his claims are totally outrageous...seems possible to me.

I do wonder about the coaching, though. I'd rather spend more time building more sites and making more passive income. Even if I had the time for coaching, I wouldn't want to spend my time on a per/hour basis helping someone else make money. Now...maybe Jeremy likes helping other people? Maybe that's a passion of his and, aside from the money, it's something that interests him? I don't know, but his comments here are probably more likely to hurt his coaching than to help...and that came from him, not something someone else said about him.

We have nothing to sell (other than site sales every once in a while) so, I think, you can trust what we have to say for the most part. You can get most everything you need for free...we give it away freely on our site. Someone much further along than we are and with way more content/info on his site is Spencer from NichePursuits.com...should definitely take a look at what he has to say...excellent information there.

I am still working on my main site SEO work. No plans for niche site now! Hope to make some in the future!

Hey Jeremy,

I know very little about your business and we've only chatted briefly during a few exchanges. I DO believe you're making a fair amount of money via AdSense (If I remember right, you had a video on a site a while back, right?) but I can't know for sure exactly how much, of course.

Either way, I don't really get why you do the coaching. Sure, we give quite a bit of info away, but that's one-way communication...pretty easy for me. We don't do 1 on 1's because of time restrictions and net benefit...I figure i can do the most amount of good broadcasting the information rather than 1 on 1 and, honestly, I just don't think it's worth my time.

More importantly, though, I would say that if you are going to offer coaching (or other services in general) you should really try to get better at handling criticism. Threads like these may end up haunting you down the road and that definitely wouldn't be good for business. It's not so much what others have brought up attacking you, it's your reaction to those attacks that I would remember and would turn me away from wanting to work with you.

If I remember right you're fairly young? Don't let a hot-head respond to criticism...it's just not a good idea!

I think what many people get a bit frustrated with is people that come along, talk about how they've started killing it online, and then offer a WSO, coaching, etc. It "seems" manufactured and people are turned off by that. We've been accused of it a bit as well, along with pimping our website auctions here, but you can't let it bother you. I know where my motives and goals are. You know yours. Don't let it get to you...

Going back to answering the initial thread question, i think that would depend on how you would like your micro niche site to perform and what it is up against. For a site with high competition micro niche sites can have more than 10 pages since there is a need to add more content into it.
