	<itunes:summary>Larry Clark from The Niche Think Tank is showing people how they can earn extra money online by revealing his online business techniques and secrets. Learn how to make money online with multiple streams of income, including passive income with micro niche websites in order to work less, make more money and have more freedom. Learn about attracting highly targeted traffic and selling a product on your website, learn affiliate marketing, blogging and how to survive a downed economy. In the podcast Larry interviews affiliate marketers, bloggers, coaches, niche specific people, lifestyle design bloggers, Search Engine Optimizers and many others. Larry doesn&#039;t claim to be rich, or claims you will get rich either, but he will help you to start earning money online from multiple streams of income. Larry was a displaced Network Engineer and Consultant when the economy forced him to learn how to make money online with internet business. He started making $100-$300 a month with a dating service and Google Adsense, and now makes more than $2500 a month from his online streams of Passive Income. Not quite the traveling lifestyle design guru other claim, but he is supporting his family with the income he is making online. He is teaching others how to start making an extra $1000 a month or more.</itunes:summary>

<p>Hey Folks, I know it&#8217;s been way to long since I posted here and I still need to catch up on my income reports for the past year+ up to the present (1/2012). I&#8217;ve had many changes happening in my life recently and it&#8217;s complicated matters in the way of niche marketing and making my niche sites as well. Complications that have caused me to not be able to make any new niche sites in the last 3 months of 2011 and the only work being done on the sites I did have were back links by my VA. Yes I have a VA now and that&#8217;s for another post.</p>
<p>As some of you know my daughter was exposed to lead due to some shoddy renovations done by the landlord of the place we lived. Because of legal issues with that and bad feelings between he and my family we decided to look for a new place to live and move out. In our process of looking we thought we had found a place and gave a deposit to the people of the new place while we haggled over the lease terms. After not being able to get things in writing, or being told one thing one day, and having it change the following day I decided not to rent from the new landlord and ask for our deposit back. They said we did not fulfill the terms of the rental application and therefore they were going to keep our deposit and deduct a days rent for everyday it did not rent that month, until it gets rented. They eventually sent us a check for about $600 stating they finally got the place rented. Needless to say I was pissed.</p>
<p>I filed against them in small claims court and went back to our current landlord and ask to retract the 30 day notice we had given till be could find a place to live. He said no, he wanted us out and so we had to leave. We couldn&#8217;t find a place to live in the 2 weeks left of our lease there so we moved into an extended stay hotel with a kitchenette. And that&#8217;s where my experience with location independence started.</p>
<p>We spent two months in that hotel while we looked for a decent place to live and eventually found one that suited our needs as a family. We were able to move in, in the middle of December, just before Christmas, get a Christmas tree and do all of our shopping by Christmas eve. The kids had a great Christmas and so did we. We&#8217;re still unpacking and it&#8217;s a bit slow as the house we are now in is about 300 sq. ft. smaller than what we were in previously but the yard is big and we now have a pool. We are also paying the same amount of rent we were in the other place and we have a gardener.</p>
<p>We had our day in court with the landlords that kept our deposit and we were able to get back $1500 of the $1850 that we gave them. While I feel we should have gotten it all back, I understand the judge was trying to be fair to all parties and said we did verbally promise to move in. I&#8217;m just glad we could get most of our money back. That&#8217;s a lot of money in the present times of our economy.</p>
<p>Ok so here&#8217;s the income report for October 2010, over a year ago. I&#8217;m going to be getting the rest of these income reports done now that I have an office that I can close the door and get down to some serious writing. In the old house my office didn&#8217;t have a door and it was also the kids play room. It made it much harder to be able to sit and get some work done as the kids would always interrupt me. Not that I minded it just isn&#8217;t conducive to a work environment.</p>
<p>I&#8217;d like to thank all of you who purchase products talked about here on this site as I get an affiliate commission from those purchases. It does go directly to helping support my family, my endeavors as a niche marketer and niche site builder. Here&#8217;s to your success!</p>
<p>BTW, you&#8217;ll notice a slight decrease in this months income, which I&#8217;m not going to go into the analysis of as I just want to get the income reports up and going. People want to see the reports and I&#8217;ve been lagging. You can compare this months with last months report by looking at <a href="http://www.thenichethinktank.com/income-report-for-september-2010/" >Septembers Income Report HERE</a>.</p>

<p>Hey folks, I had the awesome opportunity to meet up  with Dan Andrews from <a href="http://www.lifestylebusinesspodcast.com"  target="_blank">The Lifestyle Business Podcast</a>, <a href="http://www.tropicalmba.com/"  target="_blank">The Tropical MBA</a> and <a href="http://outsourcetothephilippines.com/"  target="_blank">Outsource to the Philippines</a> at a local coffee shop here in San Diego and get to know the man behind these three sites. For me Dan Andrews and his partner Ian were somewhat of a mystery. They talked about business pursuits and strategies, have good content, are entertaining, but never said what exactly they make or do. I finally got to find out at the coffee shop and demystify the mystery.</p>
<p>Not only did Dan tell me some of the industries they have their hands in, but the exact products they manufacture and sell. Dan and his partner Ian are no longer the mystery they used to be, they are THE REAL DEAL. They don&#8217;t talk lifestyle theory and try to sell you some product, they live the life, and use the techniques and strategies they talk about. They walk their talk. In fact they JUST recently put up a product for the first time for sale on The Lifestyle Business Podcast, <a href="https://www.e-junkie.com/ecom/gb.php?ii=764115&amp;c=ib&amp;aff=78333&amp;cl=122905"  target="_blank">the first 3 seasons of the podcast</a>(AL)!</p>
<p>I&#8217;ve listened to podcasts where there&#8217;s 30-45 minutes of fluff, and maybe 10 minutes of an actually real tip, but not with these guys, these guys aren&#8217;t trying to shove product down your throats, they are all content and loads of fun. If you haven&#8217;t listened to their podcast yet you&#8217;re leaving money on the table. Go there now, listen to their podcast and leave a comment and tell them Larry @ The Niche Think Tank sent you, you&#8217;ll be glad you did.</p>

<p><strong>How To Get Rid of Google Personalized Search</strong></p>
<p>Many people may already know that Google personalizes search results based on your search and browse patterns, but I didn&#8217;t realize how it affected me and my business until just recently.  When I thought my websites were climbing in the ranks to page 1 of Google they really weren&#8217;t on page 1, they were more on page 2 or 3.</p>
<p>Google is using what is commonly know as Personalized Search. This changes the search results based on the websites you&#8217;ve  previously visited.  While this might be  great in some instances, it&#8217;s very  misleading in others and can hurt your web based internet business and keep you from really attaining the #1 position in Google if you&#8217;re not careful.</p>
<p>Because I visit my websites more than other websites in the search results when I do a search of my keywords, the search rankings and results are skewed and not as accurate as some believe.  This gives a false sense of security and reality for those who have no idea Google is customizing the search results based on search history.</p>
<p>So me, being a niche marketer who depends on knowing his ranking in the <strong>S</strong>earch <strong>E</strong>ngine <strong>R</strong>esults <strong>P</strong>age<strong>s</strong>, needs to know where I stand with the Google, as most of my traffic will come from Google. I need to know so I can determine what course of action I should take for getting my ranking higher, or if I just need to maintain my current status. I also need to have an accurate result so I can best assess my competition based on their true ranking, and not what Google thinks I want to see. Make sense?</p>
<p>There are several things you can do to get a true search result. One is go to an anonymizer search system such as <strong><a href="http://www.scroogle.org/"  target="_blank">Scroogle.org</a></strong> and use their un-skewed results and also get no ads. Another thing you can do is <strong><a href="http://www.google.com/support/accounts/bin/answer.py?hl=en&amp;answer=54048"  target="_blank">turn off Google&#8217;s Personalized Search</a></strong> by reading their instructions <strong><a href="http://www.google.com/support/accounts/bin/answer.py?hl=en&amp;answer=54048"  target="_blank">HERE</a></strong>.</p>
<p>I use both Scroogle and Turned off the Personalized Search and now get the more accurate results when I search my keywords and look at my competition.</p>
<p>Thanks to <a href="http://www.smartpassiveincome.com"  target="_blank">Pat Flynn</a> at <a href="http://www.smartpassiveincome.com"  target="_blank">smartpassiveincome.com</a> for the Scroogle Tip, and be sure to read the little fiction story on Scroogle.org Called &#8220;<a href="http://www.scroogle.org/doctorow.html"  target="_blank">Scroogled</a>&#8220;, pretty good read.</p>

<p>It&#8217;s been a little over 2 months since I posted last, in fact December 6th was the last post. I had been busy making sites and getting them indexed for the rush of Christmas traffic, and just got caught up in the whirl wind of excitement. LOTS of things happenin&#8217;g and happened since then, one of which I am not too happy about, <strong>Trademark Infringement</strong>.</p>
<p>Yep, that&#8217;s right, I infringed on someone&#8217;s trademark, <a href="http://www.amazon.com/gp/redirect.html?ie=UTF8&amp;location=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.amazon.com%2F&amp;tag=nichemarketer-20&amp;linkCode=ur2&amp;camp=1789&amp;creative=390957"  target="_blank">Amazon.Com</a>. Ooopsss&#8230;</p>
<p>Basically it&#8217;s been a while since I had read the Amazon OA(Operating Agreement), and didn&#8217;t realize that I built a website that would eventually have them contacting me about. Thou Shalt Not use any of Amazon&#8217;s trademarked names(Amazon, Kindle,Etc.) in a domain name/URL. Two that I had and were running were www.kindlecoversandcases.com and www.thekindleboard.com.</p>
<p>Kindle covers and cases was a niche site that made a good deal of money over the course of the past year with December being a really great month. Then I sorta sandboxed myself a little with over zealous back linking. But that&#8217;s for another post, which I will tell the whole story and how I got out of the Google sandbox. The other site, thekindleboard.com was a forum for discussion of Kindles, eBooks and eBook authors, as well as other eBook readers.</p>
<p>I received an email, founding it in my spam folder, and read it:</p>
<blockquote><p><em>We recently contacted you about our concerns with your domain names, and we have not received a response. Please know that we value your participation in Amazon’s Associates program. By requesting that you use alternate domain names, we are attempting to make sure that there is always a clear distinction between the official &#8220;Amazon&#8221; site and other third party sites. Your current use of the </em><em>(insert domain name)</em><em>, </em><em>(insert domain name)</em><em> and (insert domain name) domains is a violation of the Associates Program Operating Agreement. The registration of these domain names also violates Amazon.com’s trademark, proprietary and other rights. Please review the Associates Program Operating Agreement for more details.</em></p>
<p><em>Please choose new domain names and transfer your content to those names. Amazon will purchase your domains </em><em>(insert domain name)</em><em>, </em><em>(insert domain name)</em><em> and </em><em>(insert domain name)</em><em> for the initial registration prices, provided that you agree to not register any domains containing Amazon brands, or a misspelling of those brands, in the future.</em></p>
<p><em>If we do not hear from you regarding the above within two weeks from the date of this email, we will have no alternative but to close your Associates account and withhold payment of all advertising fees in accordance with the Agreement.</em></p>
</blockquote>
<p>So does this David fight the Goliath Amazon and take a chance on losing all my earnings for the past 3 months? Hell no! Are you kidding? Would you throw away $4000 in affiliate sales? Yeah, I didn&#8217;t think so. I actually had 9 domain names in total with the word &#8220;Kindle&#8221; in it, but only using 4 of them. Rather than give Amazon only the 3 they listed, and still use the other 6 domain names and take a chance on losing my Associate income and my Associate account, I decided to hand over all 9 domains. They promptly paid me $10 each for a total of $90.</p>
<p>Another interesting thing with Amazon is they don&#8217;t want you using other peoples trademarked names either. So names like <em>Revlon</em>, such as in a domain name RevlonMascaraReviews.com would be a no-no. I know many people who DO use trademarked names in their URLs, and don&#8217;t get caught, but is it really worth losing your income, house or other because of it? Not in my book.</p>
<p>So what am I going to do with the traffic from those sites? or what am I going to do with the brand I had built up? I could just let it go or I could get another domain name and do a permanent redirect to the new site. So what did I do with those sites I built up? I moved them each to a new domain: <a href="http://www.ebookcoversandcases.com/"  target="_blank">eBook Covers and Cases</a> and <a href="http://www.ereaderforum.net/"  target="_blank">eReader Forum</a>.</p>
<p>I&#8217;m happy that Amazon.com was cordial enough to work with me and just take the domains off my hands and not my income I had acquired. Lesson learned.</p>

<p>I&#8217;ve been rather busy lately, putting out some niche sites, because it&#8217;s the Holiday Season and people are Buying like crazy! Great time to have an amazon powered Niche Site, pulling in sale after sale. I also recently listened to a great podcast over at <a href="http://www.smartpassiveincome.com/spi-010-crushing-it-with-amazon-affiliate-sales-with-chris-guthrie-of-makemoneyontheinternet-com/"  target="_blank">Smart Passive Income with Chris Guthrie</a>, Author of <strong><a href="http://www.thenichethinktank.com/recommends/nicheprofitcourse/"  target="_blank">Niche Profit Course</a></strong>.</p>
<p>You can read how Chris got his start at making money online at his site <a href="http://www.makemoneyontheinternet.com/how-halo-helped-me-build-a-six-figure-online-income/"  target="_blank">www.makemoneyontheinternet.com</a>. He posted one little video he made about the game called HALO, and having it go viral. Pretty cool story.</p>
<p>I downloaded his Free Guide, and then ended up getting his complete course which is basically his free guide and then a bunch of videos going over each step, but then some secrets to making large sales and continued sales. This is a great product which to me is worth the money I spent on it.</p>
<p>He also recommends using the plugin-in called <strong><a href="http://www.thenichethinktank.com/recommends/reviewazon/"  target="_blank">ReviewAzon</a></strong>, which I also bought and have been using ever since. I can&#8217;t tell you how much time the plug-in has saved me when doing my niche sites. What used to take meat least an hour to post 2-3 posts about products for the Amazon Affiliate program, now takes me minutes to post twice as many. What a time saver, AND it posts a nice looking post with images and user reviews that are pulled directly from Amazon and shown in the Amazon fashion. If you&#8217;re going to be doing Amazon Associate review sites, <strong>you</strong> <strong>need</strong> <strong><a href="http://www.thenichethinktank.com/recommends/reviewazon/"  target="_blank">ReviewAzon</a></strong>.</p>
<p>This plug-in saves me time, money and enables me to put up several sites a day if I needed too, which I have last week, in a record time. It posts great professional looking posts which give people a nice feeling when they see the posts. <strong>Amazon has brand recognition and people trust Amazon</strong>, so when you start posting professional looking posts associated with Amazon.com, the sales come in even faster.</p>
<p>The links above for the products are affiliate links which, when you use them to buy, help to support this blog, and my family, as I get a commission. Thanks for your continued support!</p>
<p>Now on to the income report for August. I know it&#8217;s a bit behind, but I&#8217;ve been very busy with my newborn girl, and making affiliate sites, as well as blogging on here more often and now doing a podcast. This report shows <span style="color: #ff0000;"><strong>-72.04</strong></span>, less than <strong><a href="http://www.thenichethinktank.com/july-income-report-and-a-day-in-my-glamorous-life/" >July&#8217;s Income Report</a></strong>, but still <strong>2168.72</strong>, for the month of August. Still not totally the amount I need to be fully self sustaining, but getting there. The next few months you&#8217;re going to see a big jump in Amazon sales and Google Adsense income.</p>
<p><strong>Finally, here&#8217;s August&#8217;s income report:</strong></p>
<p>Amazon – 139.74</p>
<p>Dating Sites – 504.09</p>
<p>eBook Sales(Mine) – 47.82</p>
<p>Affiliate Sales – 223.22</p>
<p>Clickbank Sales &#8211; 53.20</p>
<p>Text Link Ads – 47.15</p>
<p>Google – 363.50</p>
<p>Side Jobs (Hosting, WordPress Installs) &#8211; 790.00</p>
<p><strong>Total August – $2168.72<br />
 </strong></p>
<p><strong>Last month (July) –</strong><strong> $</strong><strong>2240.76</strong></p>
<p><strong>Difference of $<span style="color: #ff0000;">-72.04</span></strong></p>
<p><strong><span style="color: #ff0000;"></p>

<p>Well, I&#8217;ve not put too much work into my site for <a href="http://www.russiankettlebelltraining.com"  target="_blank">russiankettlebelltraining.com</a>. I realized a little way into the building of the site, there may not be enough traffic to sustain it, or even put more effort into it. Not many people realize that Kettlebell Training originated in Russia, nor do many people search for &#8220;Russian Kettlebell Training&#8221;. So I&#8217;ve not put much effort into it.</p>
<p>I rank for some off keywords and number 19 for Russian Kettlebell Training, and that&#8217;s it. I&#8217;ve actually been working on some other sites that I am hoping will get ranked soon, they&#8217;re big commission products and there&#8217;s not many people working them, their under served.</p>
<p>Another thing about the site is I don&#8217;t think the template I&#8217;m using is conducive for sales and marketing, people stop and run. The bounce rate is pretty high. I may do some more back linking to see if I can get it to rank for just &#8220;Kettlebell Training&#8221;, and change the template to something prettier. If after I do these two things, it does&#8217;nt improve, I&#8217;ll just sell it on Flippa, and start all over again. And such is the natural of Niche Websites and Niches. Sometimes you just make a mistake and choose the wrong keywords to rank for.</p>
<p>Pat Flynn on the other hand, has done an amazing job of building his first niche site. At least I am pretty sure it&#8217;s his first. If not I know he hasn&#8217;t done many and he has totally blown us all out of the water with his ranking strategy. Check this out:</p>
<ul>
<li>August 25th: Site went live. Not ranked.</li>
<li>August 29th: #184</li>
<li>September 6th: #162</li>
<li>September 8th: #135</li>
<li>September 9th: #119</li>
<li>September 13th: #117</li>
<li>September 14th: #53</li>
<li>September 21st: #38</li>
<li>September 29th: #27</li>
<li>October 22nd: #16</li>
<li>October 27th: #6</li>
<li>November 2: #3</li>
<li><strong>November 6: #1</strong></li>
</ul>
<p>Not to damn bad if you ask me, now that, is how it&#8217;s done, and done right! You can read his post here about his ranking:<br />
<strong><a href="http://www.smartpassiveincome.com/number-one-google-rank/"  target="_blank">Pat Flynn Niche Site Update #10</a></strong></p>
<p>Pat&#8217;s also got a great post on Backlinking to gain rank in the search engines here:<br />
<strong><a href="http://www.smartpassiveincome.com/the-backlinking-strategy-that-works/"  target="_blank">The Backlinking Strategy That Works</a></strong>.</p>
<p>There is one thing he didn&#8217;t mention, which I will, in my next post about Niche Site Creation, It&#8217;s how to Spy on your competition to find out where to backlink and find all the good juicy backlink spots. This is the easy way of finding places to backlink, just like my other post about <a href="http://www.thenichethinktank.com/niche-site-espionage-spying-on-the-competition-and-finding-niches/" >Niche Site Espionage</a>, I spy on my competition all the time. Why reinvent the wheel when theirs works just fine?</p>
<p>Be sure to check out the podcast I did with Pat Flynn here:<br />
<a href="http://www.thenichethinktank.com/how-pat-flynn-got-started-in-his-niche-market-podcast-interview/" >Pat Flynn Podcast</a></p>
<p>So there&#8217;s my update, I&#8217;m sitting here at my coffee shop office today, couldn&#8217;t focus at home so I had to get out and just write for a while. I&#8217;m basically taking it easy today as this week has been a lot of backlinking, writing articles and submitting them.</p>
<p>This week I interviewed Steve Chou from <a href="http://mywifequitherjob.com/canton-fair-how-to-buy-wholesale-direct-from-chinese-factories/"  target="_blank">MyWifeQuitHerJob.Com</a>. Steve and his wife run a wedding linen store online, and make a 6 figure income from it.  He is the subject of my next podcast due out on monday morning. I think since it&#8217;s Friday I am going to go home early, take a nap and then take my daughters to the park. I hope you all have a great weekend.</p>

<p>Friday afternoon I  got home from the gym, walked into the kitchen, saw the little lady and asked her the usual &#8220;Anything good in the mail today?&#8221;. Usually I&#8217;m asking about money in the form of affiliate checks or payments from a certain client that I had just won a small claims case from. &#8220;No but you have a box from EzineArticles, or something like that&#8221;. EzineArticles? I wonder why they would send me anything? Surely not a bill!</p>
<div id="attachment_877" class="wp-caption alignright" style="width: 335px"><img class="size-full wp-image-877" title="ezine-articles-freebie-thumb" src="http://www.thenichethinktank.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/11/ezine-articles-freebie-thumb.jpg" alt="ezine-articles-freebie" width="325" height="325" /><p class="wp-caption-text">EzineArticles Plain White Box</p></div>
<p>I went into the dining room and sure enough there was a plain white box, with the EzineArticles Logo on the top. A nice looking plain white box too! Maybe I could use it for shipping something. I opened it up to find a really nice coffee mug, a coaster and a small bag of coffee, with a note of thanks and appreciation for being an expert author at EzineArticles.</p>
<p>Wow, I was floored. I honestly wasn&#8217;t expecting this, nor did I know they sent these things out to people who achieve the rank of &#8220;Expert Author&#8221; in their article directory. Really nice mug, heavy, big and with the I Heart EzineArticles on it. I drink coffee and I am also getting ready to stop drinking coffee, again, but I also have a small collection of coffee mugs I am proud of. Small achievement awards for myself for various things. This being the latest and most unexpected.</p>
<p>EzineArticles is the article directory of choice for me when it comes to article submissions to help with backlinks, and SERPs ranking with my little niche websites I build. I&#8217;ve submitted a quite a few articles to them, just to help my sites get better ranking in Google, and to help drive traffic to the little sites. Aside from Google, they are the second biggest traffic source for my little niche websites.</p>
<p>As I write this article I can&#8217;t help but smile that they sent me a really cool coffee mug, coaster and bag of coffee. Who does that for an Internet Marketer these days? A guy who sits in front of his computer working on ways of making money but writing. No one that I can think of.</p>
<div id="attachment_884" class="wp-caption alignright" style="width: 277px"><img class="size-full wp-image-884" title="ezine-articles-freebie-2" src="http://www.thenichethinktank.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/11/ezine-articles-freebie-2.jpg" alt="ezine-articles-freebie" width="267" height="401" /><p class="wp-caption-text">WOW! Nice Mug, Coaster and Coffee</p></div>
<p>Which brings me to the topic of this post, gaining loyalty and trust through appreciation of your viewers. I don&#8217;t have anything to give away yet, but I am currently working on my first give away. I&#8217;m also working on my first eBook, but I can give away my knowledge of making income from small well crafted niche sites.</p>
<p>Soon, by the end of this month my free product will be done, my eBook will hopefully be done as well. I will keep posting content explaining how I make money from small niche websites and I will continue to do my new podcast of people who are making it in online business. Which I also meant to mention, I don&#8217;t have a podcast for us this week, as I couldn&#8217;t get someone fast enough to fill the slot, but I will have someone for next week. Just working out the details as we speak.</p>
<p>So giving away something really good to your readers may sometimes feel like your giving away money. <a href="http://www.thelaunchcoach.com/business-models"  target="_blank">Dave Navarro</a> of  <a href="http://www.thelaunchcoach.com/business-models"  target="_blank">The Launch Coach</a> recently mentions this in a <a href="http://thinktraffic.net/how-to-convert-traffic-into-buyers-with-dave-navarro"  target="_blank">podcast interview done by Corbett Barr</a>* of <a href="http://thinktraffic.net/how-to-convert-traffic-into-buyers-with-dave-navarro"  target="_blank">Think Traffic</a>. He says if it feels like you&#8217;re giving away money, or if you&#8217;re saying to yourself you could sell this product, then you&#8217;re on the right track. If the product you just made, could make you a nice tidy sum of money, why not give it away and build some trust and loyalty amongst your readers?</p>
<p>Doing this builds trust and loyalty with you, because your readers know that you are cranking out the good stuff, and they can trust you to put out good stuff when you say you&#8217;re going to. If you put out good stuff for free, and then you announce you&#8217;re releasing a product in which you intend to sell, then if your free such is good, your products that are for sale must be good as well, if not, better.</p>
<p>People will come to expect good content and product from you, if they see what you give away if good and useful. Navarro also mentions if you feel you couldn&#8217;t sell the product for anything, you should go back to the drawing board and fix it. Dave Navarro also has an eBook called <strong><a href="http://www.thenichethinktank.com/recommends/davenavarro/"  target="_blank"><em>How To Launch The **** Out Of Your eBook</em></a></strong>. An eBook I have yet to read but I hear it is really good. I will be buying it soon enough and doing a review on it.</p>
<p>Give away good content, give away good free stuff and gain loyalty and trust with your readers.</p>
<p>*Be sure to listen to the podcast, it&#8217;s very informative.</p>

<p>I was researching a topic last week for a few new niches and stumbled upon something that&#8217;s quickly becoming the next cool thing to have, an Android Smart Phone.  With Googles new Droid, HTC&#8217;s Droid and Motorola&#8217;s Droid, there&#8217;s going to be a bunch of new cases and skins for the new smartphone craze.</p>
<p>I did my research, looked for a good domain and was amazed there weren&#8217;t more domains snatched up. I decided to get a couple different domains, ranging from $9-$12 at Godaddy.Com, and started building the sites. Things are going great, one site is already on the first page of Google within 2 days! Awesome!</p>
<p>The site looks great, cool Android type font, color is great, it&#8217;s going to be a great money maker. So I start to add products and after adding several from <a href="http://www.amazon.com/gp/redirect.html?ie=UTF8&amp;location=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.amazon.com%2Fs%3Fie%3DUTF8%26x%3D0%26ref_%3Dnb_sb_ss_i_3_22%26y%3D0%26field-keywords%3Ddroid%2520cases%2520and%2520covers%26url%3Dsearch-alias%253Daps%26sprefix%3Ddroid%2520cases%2520and%2520covers&amp;tag=android-acac-20&amp;linkCode=ur2&amp;camp=1789&amp;creative=390957"  target="_blank">Amazon.Com</a><img src="https://www.assoc-amazon.com/e/ir?t=android-acac-20&amp;l=ur2&amp;o=1" border="0" alt="" width="1" height="1" /> I realize the price is so low, I&#8217;m not going to make anything. Well, at least not like I want.</p>
<p>A typical Android Phone Case or Cover is anywhere fro .02¢ to $20.00, with the majority being under $10.00. Wow, what a waste, sorta. I spent all this money on domains, then the time to build the sites, and then I realize the price of each item at <a href="http://www.amazon.com/gp/redirect.html?ie=UTF8&amp;location=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.amazon.com%2Fs%3Fie%3DUTF8%26x%3D0%26ref_%3Dnb_sb_ss_i_3_22%26y%3D0%26field-keywords%3Ddroid%2520cases%2520and%2520covers%26url%3Dsearch-alias%253Daps%26sprefix%3Ddroid%2520cases%2520and%2520covers&amp;tag=android-acac-20&amp;linkCode=ur2&amp;camp=1789&amp;creative=390957"  target="_blank">Amazon.Com</a> is so small, I&#8217;m going to be working hard to drive traffic to make any kind of money at all, if any.</p>
<p>The one saving grace is if there&#8217;s a lot of traffic it will drive my product count up, which will in turn drive the percentage I make from <a href="http://www.amazon.com/gp/redirect.html?ie=UTF8&amp;location=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.amazon.com%2Fs%3Fie%3DUTF8%26x%3D0%26ref_%3Dnb_sb_ss_i_3_22%26y%3D0%26field-keywords%3Ddroid%2520cases%2520and%2520covers%26url%3Dsearch-alias%253Daps%26sprefix%3Ddroid%2520cases%2520and%2520covers&amp;tag=android-acac-20&amp;linkCode=ur2&amp;camp=1789&amp;creative=390957"  target="_blank">Amazon.Com</a> up too. At <a href="http://www.amazon.com/gp/redirect.html?ie=UTF8&amp;location=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.amazon.com%2Fs%3Fie%3DUTF8%26x%3D0%26ref_%3Dnb_sb_ss_i_3_22%26y%3D0%26field-keywords%3Ddroid%2520cases%2520and%2520covers%26url%3Dsearch-alias%253Daps%26sprefix%3Ddroid%2520cases%2520and%2520covers&amp;tag=android-acac-20&amp;linkCode=ur2&amp;camp=1789&amp;creative=390957"  target="_blank">Amazon.Com</a> you make 4% to start. Then sell a certain number of items, and the percent goes up to 6% and then up to 6.5% and on up to 8.5% I believe. So if you have a site that sells larger, more expensive items that people are on the hunt for, like cameras, Kindles or Baby Car Seats, then you will make a nice chunk. At .02¢ a pop for an Android Case,  I won&#8217;t be making squat, I mean what&#8217;s 6% of .02¢? Get my point? I will probably do a minimal of build up on these sites and then just get rid of them at Flippa.</p>

<p><strong>How Pat Flynn Got Started In His Niche Market &#8211; Podcast Interview</strong></p>
<p>(Podcast is at the bottom)<strong><br />
 </strong></p>
<p>I had the pleasure of interviewing Pat Flynn for my first podcast interview, and get the details of the story of how he got started in Niche Marketing. I because aware of Pat when I stumble onto his blog on <a href="http://www.smartpassiveincome.com/why-making-money-online-is-ridiculousto-our-parents/"  target="_blank">August 27th, 2009</a>. It was a post about parents think making money online is ridiculous, and I could totally relate to this as my parents are the same way. Because I could relate, I started following Pat and watched him and his blog grow from there on out.</p>
<p>His story starts out with <strong>how his market chose him</strong>, instead of him choosing his market. A chance happening with luck and  fate and how he now makes $20K a month from his online ventures. This story is a reminder that sometimes we don&#8217;t get to choose our niches, they choose us. This is a good thing for some of us that this happens, because if it were left to our own choices, we might not be succeeding in the niche of our choosing.</p>
<p>Today, Pat is involved in several different venture that bring in income. From his eBook about the LEED Exam, to iPhone Apps, to smaller niche sites that are now making a passive income to augment his monthly income stream. You can follow Pat&#8217;s progress and watch his monthly income reports at his blog SmartPassiveIncome.Com, for a better idea of how he does this.</p>

		<itunes:summary>How Pat Flynn Got Started In His Niche Market - Podcast Interview

(Podcast is at the bottom)
 

I had the pleasure of interviewing Pat Flynn for my first podcast interview, and get the details of the story of how he got started in Niche Marketing. I because aware of Pat when I stumble onto his blog on August 27th, 2009. It was a post about parents think making money online is ridiculous, and I could totally relate to this as my parents are the same way. Because I could relate, I started following Pat and watched him and his blog grow from there on out.

His story starts out with how his market chose him, instead of him choosing his market. A chance happening with luck and  fate and how he now makes $20K a month from his online ventures. This story is a reminder that sometimes we don&#039;t get to choose our niches, they choose us. This is a good thing for some of us that this happens, because if it were left to our own choices, we might not be succeeding in the niche of our choosing.

Today, Pat is involved in several different venture that bring in income. From his eBook about the LEED Exam, to iPhone Apps, to smaller niche sites that are now making a passive income to augment his monthly income stream. You can follow Pat&#039;s progress and watch his monthly income reports at his blog SmartPassiveIncome.Com, for a better idea of how he does this.

<p>I love Michigan J. Frog. For many of you my age(46) you know exactly who I am talking about, for the younger crowd, you may know him as the WB Frog. However he is not the WB Frog, he is Michigan J.</p>
<p>Michigan J. Frog has a valuable lesson to teach us, in this little cartoon from 1955, and I would like to see if you can guess it before I give away the answer. To help you figure it out, I am including the cartoon here for all of you to watch and see for yourself, all the right things were there for him to become a huge hit.</p>
<p>All the right marketing and promotions, the word of mouth, the discounts and bonuses(free beer), and a large crowd gathering to see the singing frog. Only one thing was missing, can you guess what it was?</p>
<p>Many times in today&#8217;s world of online marketing and lifestyle design, we get everything together and we try to give, sell or release a product to our potential audience. We&#8217;ve got a great design for the site or blog, we&#8217;ve got all the right marketing colors, the right set price, the promotions are taken care of and everyone is waiting for the launch of our new product.</p>
<p>We launch and everything goes right, and then&#8230; everyone wants a refund. Why?</p>
<p>Watch the video, see if you can guess what is missing, and then scroll down to the bottom for the answer. I&#8217;d really like to have some interaction, so please, post your reactions, thoughts and guesses to what you thought was &#8220;Missing&#8221;.</p>
