Niche Report December

Snow StormFirst up, I hope you had a great time at Christmas. Thad and I both got snowed in on our travels (separately)!

So much for global warming!! Record snow levels all over the place and more to come over the New Year. It will NOT stop me getting to the pub tomorrow and I hope you all have a great time.

Gathering More Website Content

Google ReaderOK, you need to keep adding blog posts to your site, maybe the odd article. You want to keep publishing articles to Ezine, etc.

You must NOT leave your site static. At least not if you want it to rank well in the SERPS.

This is where it obviously helps if you are into the niche yourself. But even if not there are a number of things you can try.

Constructing Your Website

Under ConstructionLet’s just look at the site structure again and then populate each page. This is quite a long post and there’s quiet a lot to do here but if you have already done the prep work you should be able to do this in a few hours.

Just knuckle down and crank out those pages!


Level #1

Level #2 Level #3

Gathering Information For Your Website Content

LibraryThere are lots of ways you can find information on a niche, indeed you should already have gathered quite a bit during your niche research.

Online

As you do your niche research you will come across websites, articles, blog posts, review, etc. I hope you stored copies of some of those article, posts and reviews somewhere.

Grab half dozen of the best performing articles from Ezine and ArticleBase or anywhere else that takes your fancy.

Website Structure

Website StructureBefore we add any content to our websites let’s first remind ourselves of the website structure.

The pages in level #2 will form part of your main menu and appear in your header Nav Bar

The pages in level #3 form your sub-menu and will appear in you side-bar navigation only.

Create Your Own Niche Reports

The most important part of any campaign is your niche research.The more time and effort you spend on that the easier it will be for you to do everything in your campaign.

You should endeavour to create a niche report, exactly like the ones we provide you with in ANC. (Obviously you can use those to short-cut this step.)

Your Niche Report should, as a minimum contain the following:-

Creating A Website – Some Practical Steps

This month I’m gonna do a series of posts on how you actually add content to your websites.

Steps Down From Whitby AbbeyI’ve shown you the basics of the mechanics of creating a website in Wordpress Wonder module #1 and module #2. And I’ve shown ANC members the more advanced techniques in Wordpress Wizard.

Now I’m going to tell you how to easily populate all those pages and how you can keep adding fresh original content to your sites.

FTC Disclosure Policy – Some More Thoughts

I just wanted to add some more thoughts on this.

Firstly, probably the most important point is that of a material connection disclosure.

Here’s a screen grab from the video:-

Affiliate Disclosure

That’s the key.”The disclosure must be sufficient to alert the consumer that of the connection between the endorser and the product.”

So, if you are doing reviews and have a link to the product in that review and you receive a commision, disclosure is required.
