Great review! I continually take away wonderful nuggets from your reviews and posts. It never dawned on me that the word “subscribe” had such a negative connotation. I plan to make adjustments to my sites accordingly.

I emailed Lisa to thank her for doing a review on my site, and I decided to let you know what I learned about building ExtremeWealtHGuide.com

First I want to tell everyone who is wanting to build a website and make some money, is do not do the “make money” niche. It is extremely hard and competitive.

I published EWG before I read a post from Lisa about how people should stay away from the make money niche. I wasn’t sure what she meant by that, but I do now! It is very hard to get traffic to your site, and it is a VERY competitive niche to be in.

Even though I am now getting a good amount of traffic to EWG, I decided to start a new website up, about a niche that was not over saturated, and I got first page google rankings within the first week or two. My new site is still small, but about 25 of my pages are on the first page of google.

I know Lisa has talked about how to stay away from the make money niche before, but I just wanted to share my first hand experiences with you.

Thanks!!

Hi Lisa: What an informative review for ExtremeWealthGuide.com. While I don't have much of an interest in visiting that website (far too saturated) I got a lot out of your review and implemented one of your two of your suggestions into my WordPress blog (linked to my ID). I changed my "subscribe to a reader" to "Get RSS Blog Updates" I plan to use video in my new SBI website that I'm creating (I bought through you to make sure you get the commission!) and I look to your Flat stomach site as a model of success to follow. One more thing, I plan to change my Wordpress theme to Thesis, as it looks like it's working quite well. One of the reasons I went with SBI is because of all the hair pulling I do over Wordpress glitches. I have zero patience for technology snafus. I want to produce content and make a beautiful, informative website!!! Amy P.’s last blog post..Receiving Parcels, Customs and Duty in Thailand

Another great site review, from embedding video to mailing list placement to 'get' vs 'subscribe', all great points. I will definitely incorporate a few of your comments on my site...thanks! Lisa’s last blog post..The-Christian-Single-Woman.com Inspiration Cafe'

Very solid review. I really enjoyed your tips… especially about the “Subscribe”. I would have never thought of that but it makes sense!

Nice website Lisa, its good to see a relatively new website actually have a completed feel to it. Although the content kind of talked around topics more than about them. Nonetheless I admire someone so young having such an enterprising, entrepreneurial spirit. I'm excited to see where this site goes, to really get somewhere on this topic I think Kirk will need some really juicy and engaging content. On your review, I think it was spot on and there were some very good tips in your review. John Salamon’s last blog post..Choosing a Topic for Your Niche
