You folks are amusing me.
I've been slightly lurkerific lately because my "extra" development time got hogged by a client. Yay me!
Not to shake my tree too much, but I put up a fairly vague ebay-driven site for "project car restoration." You know, people who reassemble 1957 chevys and stuff. I'm trying to drive traffic to it via external links from wordpress blogs, blogger blogs, and some other stuff. But the blogs sort of requires I come up with 100-500 word posts on stuff I don't know anything about. For extra-fascinating info, I go to google blogsearch and put in "auto restoration." Yesterday, I tried "camaro restoration."
I don't know if it's one of youse guys's sites, but "camaroheadlights.blogspot.com" is a prime, _prime_ example of what I'd consider "my competition's spam blog." Fascinating, pals, fascinating.
For the record, no, I haven't gotten enough money back from my "vague ebay-driven site" yet. But after looking at "camaro headlights," I'm wondering if my niche is too big. Maybe I should just go with "model t fenders" or something. I have a different, also vague, "ebay-driven ebay site" that gets a lot more traffic and makes some money ( enough so that if I duplicated the success 500 times I could retire
). But it's vague too. Model T Fenders sounds too much like Chicago Foreclosures in terms of niche-focus.
