Update
Hey guys! Sorry for not posting more frequently. I was simply out of interesting things to blog about. If you want me to blog about something please let me know. I am also more than happy to accept guest blog posts. So if you want to write an interesting article related to SEO or marketing do let me know. As a thank you I will link to your blog from your article.
Now the updates… Remember the 35mm slide scanner blog from my previous niche research post? You should now be able to find it on the front page of Google for related keywords, generating me $xx daily which is much more than I have expected. Some of you wondered why I did not develop that blog any further. If I was to take that blog seriously I would have never shared my niche in public. It was just an example to get you started with niche research/bloging and show you what my blogs actually look like. As it always happens some not so creative people went ahead and entered the same niche with their own clones. I really don’t understand why people do this. I clearly explained the niche research process but instead of finding their own, they simply copy. Do they not understand that if they decide to copy my blog then others will probably do the same…
CPAlead experiment was ruined by CPAlead taking 10 days to figure out that there was nothing wrong with my account after disabling it for no reason. I am back with CPAlead but because I am already making money I would not be able to clock $0 to $100, especially after touching that $100 mark.
It looks like Google has also de-spanked me for selling links and given me some PR. It only took them a year and a half. The funny thing is that my Google traffic actually dropped. So I have now proven the opposite. Google sent me more traffic when my PR was none existent (Not even 0 but NA). Now it gave me PR2 and cut the traffic. Yet again its proven that PR means nothing.

I would be really interested to hear what you have to say about all of these self proclaimed SEO experts.. and all those folks out there in twitter land who are just uselessly hocking crap to make money off of people who want to make money

Lindsay,
There is not really much to say about them. They don’t even deserve a blog post.
Jeet,
That would be great!
Metz,
Ta!

The Lemmings are just the worst, ain’t they? It seems that whatever one does (and talk about) will be jumped on like vultures on a carcass. Thanks for sharing your knowledge, and please don’t stop because of such nonsense!

HI there. This is the first time I am leaving a comment on your blog. I have to admit that I have just spent a little time and already you got my attention.
I would be interested to send you a guset post as I believe that we share the same interest. What is your policy for this?

Dan Brandon,
Good Idea!
Marketing Man,
Oh no, I am not stopping.
Thanks!
pandi merdeka,
What niche? Or just niche marketing in general?
DiTesco,
Glad to have you here. I have not really done this before so no policies as of such but the post has to be unique, related and you will get a backlink as an author. Contact me directly on exposedseo at gmail if you are still interested.

This is the difficult thing with running a “how to make money”-blog. How much should you share with your users? If you show them a case study there are always someone who will bluntly copy all your work and release with a new style.

That’s why alot of people do not share their strategies. next time just show the topic and keep the niche blocked. it’s like sleeping with your brothers wife. so many other women in the world, but you still chose the off the radar one. anyway thanks… Pointed me in the right direction..
