    Scary loss of traffic = current state of extreme panic

    I wouldn't stress too much. I created a new site in November that started ranking quickly for some pretty competitive terms. I was getting 100 - 200 UV a day. It dropped on Google about 2 months later from pages 1 - 3 for many terms down to pages 20+. My traffic dried up almost completely...

    Niche Market Samurai - Looking For Tips, Tricks, Insight

    This is great advice. Some of my best converting pages target specific product searches that get 1000 or less searches a month. It's generally something like "Blue Widget reviews". They already know the product and may very well buy it or another similar product featured on the site.

    On-page or Off-page???

    I've had sites that start to rank well just from on-page factors but they need some good off-page link building to get to the top. I would build links to any page that you want to stick around on the first page.

    Outsourcing manual posting to workers cheaply in bulk?

    I generally use ODesk and I look through the job postings to find similar ones. It gives me a good idea of the cost. I've found some good workers that work form way cheaper than advertised services.

    I cant do it!!

    Try to put aside some money each week or month for outsourcing. I'm making more than I used to when I did it all my self. At this point I do the keyword research and assemble the site. Content and link building is outsourced which I would guess used to take up about 90% of my IM time. I just...

    EMD for each product?

    I do one site and rank the subpages. It's way less of a headache and I think it's easier to rank that X different domains. One word of caution: be careful with product names in the domain name it could violate affiliate terms and then you could be kicked out of the program. That another...

    How many backlinks is sufficient a day?

    Build as many good white hat links as you can. This won't hurt your site. Avoid overusing forum profiles and blog comments as they can get a site deindexed if you go overboard. If you aren't sure and a link package or service seems spammy use caution because it could have negative consequences.

    How many articles a week for Blog and niche sites??

    I usually add an article per week. I focus more on my money pages: product reviews and signup pages. Building links to these pages does me far more good than busting my butt writing a ton of content. I have sites that I haven't updated in months that make a good amount of money just from a...

    Im quitting smoking cigarettes

    I quit at the beginning of October of 2011. I work in a bar and many people around me smoke so it's a hard line of work to quit smoking in. I started using an e cigarette for about two weeks. After that I stopped using that. For me the first three weeks were hard but now I really don't think...

    why does a pr6 site have no back links?

    I would try a fake pagerank checker. Sometimes site owners will do redirects to make it look as if a site has PR. If it is accurate then I'm really not sure. A PR6 should certainly have some type of linking activity.

    SEO Advice regarding URL names

    JBSmith is the best in my opinion. Not really from a SEO standpoint, any of the variations will do, but because it is the easiest to remember. If they are JBSmith company they should end up ranking well for JB Smith company. Saying JBSmith is easier than J dash B dash Smith or J underscore B...

    I get google but can't understand yahoo, bing..

    I've always found that Bing and Yahoo lag behind for me. I wouldn't worry about it too much, if you rank well in Google chances are you'll rank well in the other two if you give it some time. Besides in my experience if I have a site in the same spot for all three engines I still get 90+% of...

    How much did you make in 2011?

    Low 5 figures from my sites. It was a breakthrough year for me. Before this year I was making next to nothing online. Time to keep building.

    Content lock and google

    That makes a lot of sense. I'm new to content lockers and I just thought I'd give it a try. The site is only a week old but I'm already starting to see some traffic. I think I'll rework the main pages like you said to link to a locked page. I'd hate to start getting good traffic and get...

    Content lock and google

    I was wondering this myself. I checked one of my sites that has an active content locker script on it, from Leadbolt, to see. I have Google Webmaster tools installed on the site and there is an option to fetch a page as the Google bot. Mine shows up exactly as it's written, including the...

    Google Glitch? Anyone else experience this?

    That did it, I usually use Firefox but I tried in IE. I figured it had something to do with my browser history or Google specifically remembering that I enjoy clicking my own website. Thanks!
