Also we can’t get away with keyword stuffing because the analyser doesn’t like it!

So all in all it is necessary to follow the guidelines set by SBI and this is what leads to success.

Thanks again

Every bit of time I spend not producing good content is like a business overhead. Site setup, coding and design is all necessary, but it isn’t the product. I know creating lots of sites can work for some people but it’s not for me.

Not for me, either. I’ve seen comments on the DP forums from people who work site creation as a mass production business, but I get a lot of satisfaction out of producing content that’s truly useful to people, rather than just search engine bait (ideally, the content will be both, but it has to be useful most of all).

I have dipped my toe in the MFA and neglected niche site pond but they never build up web “capital”. It is difficult to take any really interest in them and Google gets wise and sends measly traffic.

The best neglected niche techinique I do use is a tips website. Each set of tips is researched and aimed at a neglected niche and ranks well for specific search terms. The bounce rate is high and CTR not great ( I am using the Blue Sense theme for AS) but I don’t do much work on it and the domain gets aged. It generates a bit of income.

If every website, or even page, is your product then building something people actually want is key. We don’t have a physical product and what is have is mostly given away for free.

Aaron Wall over at SEObook.com has some interesting thoughts on modern internet business models and how they stack up.
