For those with cancer, mesothelioma is much more serious than a high paying google adsense keyword…

Is “spider man” and “spiderman” the same word?

Sometimes I wish I had it in me to spam something that would pay a few bills but taking advantage of dying cancer patients just isn’t my thing.

I’ve found some nice niches that are extremely easy to do well in and can be quite profitable. However, the trick is to find a niche with enough related long tail keywords that you can rank well on for it to be profitable while climbing to the top. Personally, I don’t think that fighting for Mesothelioma or Viagra is worth it unless you have a ton of time and money to spend to get to the top, but if you focus your efforts on some other niche, you could be making some decent money while moving up the ladder. The sooner a site is profitable, the better right?

Well you got your spider man t-shirts, wallpapers, mouse pads, screen savers, ringtones, baseball hats, underwear, sneakers, pens, pencils, book bags, notebooks, backpaks and hundreds more to choose from, which is an excellent way to utilize chitika.

You’ve also got a wide range of spider man characters good guys, bad guys, side characters, history, comic, comic covers, artwork, fan fiction, electric company episodes, cartoon episodes, universal rides, movies, DVD releases, DVD easter eggs, theme songs, and I’m sure there are many more I left out.

While you’d be best off starting small with less than 50 pages and growing slowly. IMHO the only time you need to stay under the radar is when you’ve got on your sombrero de negro. I’d also use subdomains to get the most value out of the domain ie spiderman.example.com superman.example.com and batman.example.com

When I think of traffic I think of it in terms fo “traffic that converts” and preferably traffic that converts yielding some significant value.

So, in context, Spidy is nice but it’s a broad sweep and yes, that holds some potential. However, isn’t being a magnet traffic that converts – buy spiderman (whatever) – the real end game. Ya, give me enough traffic and I’ll sell someone something, but drill down a bit further into the game plan and allow me to be a loud sucking noise for the cream of the crop.

How do you manage to do that whilst remaining below radar? Now that’s an interesting question.

Care to share?

You are absolutely right. And if you have your traffic then you can play with it. Better have all sort of sites and combine them. Good article.
