A New Niche Marketing Strategy For November – October’s Goals Achieved Too

October’s gone.. and so are the results :)

Overall.. I would say that everything went beyond my expectations. traffic, sales, etc.
As you all know based on my previous post, I’m running 12 niche sites.

I wanted to take them all to a certain level before deciding which ones I would dedicate my time to.

Now’s the time…

Out of all the sites I decided to focus on, 2 are physical targeted products and 2 are digital targeted products.

[It's the Autumn season.. Not my favorite one :) But one always nice to look at.It also reminds me that I have to work hard so I can work from home before Winter!]

Physical Products

One of my physical products is my biggest earner so far… look at the conversion ;) sweet huh?

The other one brings trickle of traffic, but has huge potential in both traffic and sales…

Digital Products

Both of these sites haven’t done nothing specific so far, but the reason why I’m pushing digital sites too, is because it is far more easier to collect leads with information products than physical products.

Why collect leads? Simple…

The people that goes on your site and then goes on buying through the merchant are gone FOREVER if you don’t capture their email.  You then lose the ability to sell them again and again.

So building a list is what will really give you a leverage, an asset and a security even if Google’s go wild or whatever else.

One thing with collecting leads, 95% of marketers screw up the whole process (and I’m being generous) . Just look at my conversion rate in the picture above.. It’s pretty high and it will probably go down as I get more traffic..yet It’s built around targeted traffic.That’s why the conversion is high… and I could get it as high if not more with email marketing..

But well.. this post is not why you should have a list :) but why I’m pushing digital products..so I can build myself a list.

October’s results.

For October I had one and only one goal.. Get 20 visits a day average over a 30 day period.

I barely got by :D by averaging 20.9 Unique visitors for the whole month of October and the number of visitors per site looks like this…

Site 1 – 75 Absolute unique visitors
Site 2 – 11 Absolute Unique Visitors
Site 3 – 14 Absolute Unique Visitors
Site 4 – 271 Absolute Unique Visitors
Site 5 – 98 Absolute Unique Visitors
Site 6 – 68 Absolute Unique Visitors
Site 7 – 2 Absolute Unique Visitors
Site 8 – 4 Absolute Unique Visitors
Site 9 – 24 Absolute Unique Visitors
Site 10 – 6 Absolute Unique Visitors
Site 11 – 3 Absolute Unique Visitors
Site 12 – 55 Absolute Unique Visitor

It also brought me sales of…

Adsense: $1.44
Amazon: $13.16
Shareasale.com: $4.80

Not bad when you consider I wasn’t looking for commissions. ( meaning I only have done a primary optimizations for my sites)

All in all, I’ve been pretty happy with how the month of October went..except for the last week, I lost a bit of focus and wasn’t productive as I would have wanted, but that’s okay because this month I’ve made some significant changes.

November’s Goal.

In terms of traffic, my next goal is to reach the average of 50 visits a day globally from all my sites, that’s it! Nothing else.

I’m not looking at sales yet. (I will once I get around 100 visits a day)

However there’s a little thing to this month’s objective.. I’ll will be focusing on 4 sites only. Maybe 10% on the others… but really 90% if not more of my time will go to those 4 sites.

Which will have the effect of giving it more juice… but I’ve also invested in some tools that will definitely TRIPLE my production.

I have seen others use it, I have seen a place use it in a specific way which is exactly how I want to use it. Before I do talk about it, I sure want to be able to bring the results first, so I’ll keep those tools for the next update.

So to attain those 50 visits a day.. here’s my plan

Site 1 gets 10 visits a day.. I want to push it to 20 a day.
Site 2 gets traffic but not consistently.. I want to push it to 10 a day.
Site 3 gets traffic but not consistently.. I want to push it to 10 a day.
Site 4 gets traffic but not consistently.. I want to push it to 10 a day.

  1. Wow that’s a really nice conversion rate! Looks like you’re doing well and I definitely like your idea of narrowing things down and focusing on fewer sites – it’ll definitely help you to stay on track and get more done. Look forward to seeing how you do in November!

    Thanks Ruth! :D Yup it definitely will help working on fewer site.. not only I’m focusing my energy on less sites, but I’ve also added backlinking services so I can have it easier with the search engines ;)

    This is a good way of planning your blog. I like the way you set up goals each much and making something up to reach that goal. Planning might be an easy thing to do, but doing what you plan is quite difficult,specially when you are occupied with lots of things.
