Hey guys, so my site has finally been indexed by Google. I’ve been researching keywords to use for this niche and found a few favorites. I’ve done the basics, meta tags, tried to keep a good keyword density, wrote articles with popular searched titles. I’ve also wrote 1-2 hub pages and squidoo lenses that link to the site. So far I’ve got around 40 unique hits to the site, 1 has converted in to a sale!

Looks like CB might not be so bad afterall, but this is only one sale, so let’s see how it goes from here. I plan on trying to build some more backlinks, I may also add a bit of PPC now I have $20 to play with. I know originally I planned to use SEO, but I’m only investing money that I’ve earnt so far so really I’ve still invested $0 (apart from the cheap domain that was like 9 bucks).

A little more info on my site. It’s a wordpress blog with a good (I think) domain name, I’ve used a popular skin not modified in any way. I’ve wrote posts that answer common questions from the niche and then sprinkled in posts that promote products (solutions to common problems). There’s a few comments on those posts too, the site looks quite active.

Hopefully I’ll drive a bit of PPC traffic to the site and see how that goes, keep you posted!

Dan
