I’m sorry for the lack of updates lately but I have been really busy with other projects. That`s no excuse however and I managed to do some things for this Blogging Experiment as well. I did purchase 500 manual directory submissions for $10 at Digitalpoint which is one great way to create backlinks for your [...]
In the previous articles I explained how I did research a niche, bought a domain and found a web hoster. The next step was to setup Wordpress and add a few plugins to the blog. You might be wondering why I decided to use Wordpress and not some static html pages. The simple answer is time. I can setup Wordpress in five minutes and have the site up and running. There are so many free themes to choose from and plugins to pick that I have a wonderful unique site in less than an hour of work. This makes it possible to concentrate on writing articles and SEO instead of building some html pages.
Now that I discovered the niche that I wanted to use I had to find a good domain name for that niche, grab it from a domain hoster and evaluate hosting options. I knew that I had to pay roughly $10 per year for the domain name and I decided to search for a host where I did not have to pay more than $5 per month. This would mean that I could operate the website for $70 per year which would be still under my budget, but since I want to achieve results in three months I did calculate $25 for hosting and domain for that time.
I was ill the last few days and will be ill for the next 1-2 weeks which has the result that I can’t do as much SEO as I would like to do. I still wanted to give you an updated on the progress that I made so far. The good news is that I’m already ranking under the top 100 for three related keywords which is a good progress if you consider the amount of time that I spend to far and that I did not do any SEO - off page that is - yet.
