I’ve found myself in a bit of a funk where I have absolutely no motivation to do any work. I had the goal of finishing up my massive link building for all 41 of my sniper sites and I managed to get that all done last night. So I’m sort of stuck without a detailed goal right now, tired, Friday and not really wanting to work. Whenever I get in these moods, I can always come over to this site and write a blog post.
I guess we might as well get to the money right now. In my post about niche sites, I mentioned the total of $319.71 being earned since I started into the sniper sites. That was posted on November 27th, so I thought I’d do an update for all my readers.
Total Invested: $354.20
Total Return: $652.98
So we can all chant yippie, I’m finally in positive territory, even though no where near where I’d like it to be. I think we really need to consider the fact that I just finished doing backlinks to all my sniper sites last night. Some of them had only one page of content and no monitization (which I promptly fixed). Every single one of the 41 websites had at least one new fresh page of keyword rich content that was somewhere between 500-1000 words.
The results of that work won’t be felt for a while now. I won’t expect anything for at least a month from some of the sites, so I’m not too worried about it. As of right now, I have 5 Adsense sites and the rest are Amazon. The majority of my earnings are from Amazon as well.
I only have a few sites that are in the money spot (top 3 at Google). I have a lot of them hanging at position 4, so I’m sure they’ll push up as the link juice flows through over the next few weeks. I should also say that I picked up an additional two domains, which are not listed in the above numbers. I’m going to throw them in the category of wave 3, even though there’s just two domains. They’re following the same idea. One of them is in a niche that I expect to get hot in the next few years, so we’ll see how interesting that goes.
The other domain has to do with another topic that I want to really work into.
Dominating the Top 10
I used to think the key to dominating a niche was getting the top spot for various keywords in the niche. What I’m trying to do now is dominate the top 10 positions of a keyword. This other domain I bought was the same keyworded domain as a domain in wave 1. I had the .net, so I picked up the .org (keyword.net and keyword.org). I have both sites on different hosting accounts (different IPs) and I have them ranking 4th and 5th position in Google. It used to be 3rd and 5th, but there has been a little movement lately.
I did use two different hosting accounts for the domains just so I’d have a unique IP located in a different city. I really don’t know how suspicious Google would get if keyword.net and keyword.org were ranked in the top 10 from the same IP#. If you’ve tested this please comment and let me know.
For the same keyword I’ve also created a hub (from hubpages) and backlinked the hell out of that. It’s taking an abnormal amount of time to get indexed, but once it does I’m sure it will spring into the top 10. I’ll just keep doing that with different sites until I actually fill in the top 10. And let me tell you how useful it is to have a bunch of sites fully backlinked in a niche. The keyword.net for the site was bought first and was built, backlinked and ranked for a while. The keyword.org site is a position 5 with only one backlink from my .net site. Once I do take the top 10 over, I’ll just start going into related keywords and take over the top 10 for them. And that is how to make cash or at least how I plan to make it.
That is going to be my next little project with the sniper sites. Any site that is ranked in the top 10, I will get an additional two sites that are mine to rank in the top 10. I can do this a number of ways. I can buy a domain for the keyword. So if I have keyword.net, I’ll pick up keyword.org (if available). I’ll probably go the free route with a hubpage or something like that.
Double Google Positions
Okay, now this is something that I want to do. It will allow me to occupy an extra top 10 position without actually having to hold any new site. It’s where you have your regular listing and an indented listing below it. Well, according to Griz all you have to do is link two pieces of content together with the same keyword. I linked backed to my old sniper sites post from this post I’m doing right now. What I’ll do is go back to that old post, edit it and link to this one. That is supposedly what needs to be done to create a double listing. I want to do that too.
I guess this is something that I’ll have to get done and the date to put on this will be tough. I’m predicting the best I can is two sites a day, with two extra properties each and with a double listing. Hmmm, Well, I’m heading to the Dominican Republic in March. I want to get that all done before I have to go there.
Well, I guess that is enough for this post. Just thought I’d tell you about the sites and that I’m in a positive return now, so that is a good thing. Keep at it and keep making cash.
