My Niche Marketing Adventure – How’s It Going

Wednesday, April 20th, 2011 at 11:27 am

Alright, it’s that time again for an update on my niche marketing adventure.

I am really have fun with this. Once I get this site established I can’t wait to get started on another niche. At that point I would also like to show you step-by-step what I am doing from day one.

For those that are new here I decided to create a niche site in the yeast infection market. You can read more about it at http://marketingwithrick.com/910/niche-marketing-let-the-adventure-begin/

I have submitted several more articles to different article directories and I have several more ready to submit. I am almost finished creating a couple of Squidoo lenses for backlinks.

Once I complete these activities I plan on creating other backlinks with forum marketing and blog commenting.

The stats

Age of site: almost one month

# of visitors: 90 visitors

# of unique visitors: 82

# of page views: 324

avg. # of page views: 3.60

avg. time on site is now 1 minute 53 seconds

The most visitors per day has been 11 and this has happened twice.

My Niche Adventure – Back From My 2 Week Break

I first want to say that I can not believe it has been 2 weeks since I last posted about my niche adventure.

I know it has been too long since I posted when one of my buddy’s from church, Ted from Praise the Lard BBQ, said something to me. He was giving me a hard time about not posting recently. The thing is, he is right, it should not have taken so long but I do have a good reason…well a good reason for me.

Well, I have not accomplished much since I last posted. Two weeks ago I was extremely busy at my “job” and last week was spring break and I promised my family I would not get on the computer and do any work – It was total family time. And to be honest, I really enjoyed the time spent with my family – we all had a great time together.

I did check the stats on the articles. I am happy with the amount of views on most of the articles, however it is not translating to website views as I would have liked. That’s okay because the purpose of submitting the articles was two fold – getting backlinks to increase my Google rankings for my money keywords and to drive traffic to the site.

My Niche Adventure – Article Marketing – part 2

I am into the second week of my article marketing campaign and I am really following behind. As you recall, my article marketing plan was to submit a new article to the article directories every day for 21 days. I am at day 12 and I have only submitted 6 articles. So, if I do math math correctly (I had my son check it for me) I am averaging 1 article every two days. I am trying to look at the bright side and bask in the fact that I am at least submitting some articles and I am still continuing on my adventure and not giving up.

Ezinearticles.com still has not approved any of my articles yet. I am a little discourage by this because I thought they would be approved within 7 days. The other directories I am submitting to are approving the article within 72 hours. But I know most of the traffic will be coming from Ezinearticles.com because it is the most popular article directory. I almost forgot, since ezinearticles.com changed their word requirements, I am having to right my articles with a minimum of 600 words because I am in an already saturated market. This has been tough for me.

Today I wanted to update you guys on my adventure into Niche Site Marketing.

As I mentioned in my last post, My Niche Site Adventure Has Started, I got my site up and I am working to drive traffic to the site. I am working to drive traffic with an Article Marketing technique. The technique is to submit an article everyday for 21 days. I am using 7 money keywords and I will submit an new article for a different keyword each day for seven days. I will repeat this process for three weeks.

I started this process last week, however I did not get an article submitted Friday or Saturday. No big deal, I just submitted the next article on Sunday and will try to do better and stay on track.

I have submitted articles to the following ezine directories:
