I just wanted to say great! I was clicking around on Bing when I found this blog. After spending some time on this weblog I’ve come up with some good ideas for my site. I just thought I’d let you know

Hey Daymon! I think we’re all guilty of the cart before the horse at some point…

Good point about not needing to be in the physical goods department – just great ideas can be uncovered at eBay, Amazon and the like.

And thanks for the visit, and comment – you definitely know how to market your website!

When I first started marketing online, I did do a lot of keyword research, but now I mainly focus on what people are searching for and optimize my efforts to compete for hard to get keywords and phrases. In other words, my keyword research now is minimal, and marketing maximal. (I hope) LOL

There were some things here I haven’t thought of before like going to eBay to see what people are buying. Though I don’t market physical products, this can give me some insight for my own marketing campaigns. I won’t go into detail because I don’t want to give up my secrets

Another great post, Diane

Hi Linda! Great to see you

At first when I read the article I wondered what all the fuss was about until I realized that at times we’ve been slightly guilty of the hunt the keywords first and figure it out later (not in recent memory but back along the way). So if this keeps someone on the right track, right up front, they will save themselves a lot of headache

Thanks for the comment, much appreciated! BTW, every time I visit your site I keep wondering why I’m not using solar…!

From what I have been reading, don’t they both go hand in hand… in any event, enjoyed the article..
