Ok guys heres a tip for the ones with the problem " how to get so much articles"
Go on youtube and look for your niche, go find a video in which some person TALKS about your niche. Than go to wordpress or notepad and start writing the stuff that that person talks. Some sentences will not make sense but you can remove it easily.
or test writers out on Odesk until you find a good one for 2 bucks a 500 worder.
Grats to the guy that found an EMD with 74k (hoping its exact). That's rare.
I've been working on my EMD for about 3 months now. 70k global 5k exact. Bringing me around $1-2 a day. In short yes they still work, but dont bother with a narrow EMD like a product name or something. Keep looking for those EMD's until you find one that you think you cant write 50+ articles about DIFFERENT subjects on. You'll avoid the Panda in the long run and have a good informative site that search engines will like.
