I think it is probably a bad idea, but the nature of blogging makes it hard to prevent. If you find yourself writing more about how to make money online than your original niche, maybe try starting up a new blog on that topic, and keep your original blogs on topic. That will help keep them authorities on their topic and not dilute your search engine traffic. It is common for blogs to morph from niche to niche.

I guess i have an authority site in my personal blog because it predominately discusses Japan seeing as i live here. There is however, an undertone as to how i make money from the internet, they both go hand in hand and are dished out with appropriate percentages. I often wonder if and when my blogging will take on more of a `how i make money online` standpoint as a blanket across the 3 or 4 sites i have across very different niches and maybe at that stage i have by default become an authority on a different topic. I see blogs as often changing focus depending on their initial niche. A very difficult topic and one i`m not sure where i sit.

Registering a domain name early does help with search engine rankings, but once Google knows about your site it's impossible to keep people away until you've properly created the perception of authority. So it's a bit of a trade off. Worth trying both ways to see what works best. Hi Steve, good to hear from you.

I would suggest registering domains and getting something small up as soon as you can, just so that google knows that you have been around for a while. Then, only let other people know about it once you have a bit of content and something to show. The longevity of a site does affect how it is perceived, as well as how search engines rank it.
