Thats so cool! Thank you for breaking it down for me, someone who really has no clue how it works. If you are suffering from writers block I would suggest doing some of what you are attempting to write about and then think what drew you to that subject. What is it that gets you excited, ways you can be better and thats a few great jumping off points. Suddenly the ideas should be coming to you in no time!

Great way to find that niche – I love music but I don’t know what I should start off with – Now, I’m going to work on developing niche music sites like – 90s music or gangsta rap music (lol – i’m a webmaster talking about gangsta rap lol) but i totally understand the concept of niche now thanks to you. Cheers mate and thanks for sharing.

I have used the process you outlined for a fair while but I have never seen anyone explain it as clear as you have, this information is very very helpful for newbies looking to develop keyword niches. I totally agree with you that it is important to check the value of the keyword niches that you target because there is no point targeting those worth under $1 in my opinion.

I’m amazed you don’t have more comments on this post. This is the first post on finding a niche site that really gave me a process to use. Usually posts on this subject start with “First you have to research long tail keywords” or something just as dry.

As a writer, I prefer a “writing process” to find infromation. Thanks for this methodology. Like you, I have no problem writing about almost any subject. That’s why I started a copywriting business. I’m just tired of a business where everything is a one-off project. I want to get off that treadmill and start developing “multiple streams of income” as Robert Allen puts it.

I’ve only been around here posting for a while but I like the way that you pay a great deal of attention to planning. 60 days without advertising surprised me but is probably sound advice.

Wow, extremely valuable tips. I think you could even write book or some sort of tutorial about SEO techniques, I bet it would get extremely popular. Thanks for sharing your knowledge!

Good article. Submitted it to Digg for you, which is always good to do with your own posts because you gain a keyword rich link back to a specific post. Check out my blog for some other blog promotion tips.

This is a great post. Useful for even experienced bloggers. Nice job.

Two things I think you could add as a follow up post.

1) What blogging software to use. Lots of people may see this and want to get started, but pick the wrong blogging system or be lost as to where to start.

2) Build a network of sites. If you want to make money it often helps to have a few sites. All the same rules apply of course.

This is a great tutorial for those that want to start “Making money online” but i am afraid that people would get lost at “Making money online” instead of having a “quality blog”.

My idea is (after following all the steps described by Brandon) to leave the “Making money” for later, even after 5-6 months and during that time you will need to build some kind of feeling between you and the readers (increase traffic and convert “passenger visitor” into a “regular reader”).

I stop by at Brandon’s blog from time to time, not a regular reader, but i like to pass by once in awhile and read what he has posted (because Brandon has built credibility to me, and i know i won’t be wasting my time reading his blog).
