Starting Over and Starting Slower
This is going to be an interesting update. I published my first hub the other day. It’s essentially an expansion of my post about how to earn money online without any initial monetary investment. I can’t believe I wrote so much. I received my only two visitors to this blog since I published it, but I’ve just gotten started. I won’t lose faith so easily.
Unfortunately I can’t say the same about my other projects. I’m thinking about abandoning my Blogger blogs and starting with something new from scratch. Instead of three blogs, I’ll just work on one. One heavily SEO’d blog (not this one!) and another SEO project. I have an interesting generic domain that I could use to set up a small website with AdSense ads. A single keyword, which is the same as the domain, is searched for just under 2000 times a month and has only 500k or so results in Google. This may be my SEO pet project if I don’t find any buyers for my domain.
Ideally I just want to set up a small site with perhaps 20-30 pages worth of information on the subject, and set up some relevant news feeds so some part of it is updated frequently. I won’t use AdWords, just SEO and perhaps submit the site to a few directories. Then I’d just set and forget it. It’s a very small niche and there aren’t any related affiliate programs, so I don’t think I’ll have much trouble with competition from other internet marketers. And it’ll be a great way to learn some SEO building a website from the ground up.
Now for this new blog, I have no idea what to do with it. 
I don’t know what niche to work with. With this blog I want to write about something I personally enjoy. Maybe computer games? I don’t know. I’m going to have to sit down and really brainstorm. What would I enjoy writing about?
On that note, today I found a list of highest paid bloggers and other internet marketers on Paula Mooney’s blog, which is actually a solid place to read articles about blogging for money. I personally enjoyed looking through the entire list, not just the virtual ballers and hotshots. Less than a quarter of them are making six figures, and of course that proportion is much smaller in reality.
