Got the new site going and I’m pretty happy with how this new theme works to make a very professional looking site.
The Princess Rings Shop
Now we’ll just have to see if I can get some traffic. The Archery Hunting Equilment site is doing relatively well, so I think I need to redo it with the new theme and then start promoting it better.
I’m also feeling like it is time to concentrate on studying Internet Margeting techniques again. I’ve passed up tons of info from Stomper and I am particularly eager to check out all the stuff I’ve gotten from WordpressDirect.
So I’m going to do the social bookmarking thing for The Princess Ring Shop and then go back to school for a while.
Using the combination of What’s Hot at eBay and Market Samurai to research keywords and then all my site building tricks makes me fell like I have a good understanding of this particular internet marketing niche.

The first time I had a go at the 30 Day Challenge I was incredibly lost. I ended up buying a domian name that was completely wrong for what I had in mind and so it has been sitting undeveloped for more than a year.
So I finally decided to get it going using my favorite eBay affiliate software (phpBay Pro) and a new theme I actually paid money for. The site ended up being more than sixty pages because of all the categories, but right now I think it looks pretty good. I’m sure in a week I willl hate it.
Here is my new (old) site just chock full of dog supplies and dog collar supplies: The Happy Dog
I have no idea if I will be able to draw any traffic, the whole site was really nothing more than a proof of concept, but I am encouraged by the results and I have learned a lot about how to better use this theme.
I just bought a new domain tonight and so I will have to build that site out, but I think I am also ready to do more training and so I need to review the WordpressDirect disk I have as well as catch up in the worlds of Stompernet and Ed Dale.
Onward and upward!

Several weeks ago I planted lettuce and spinach in my garden. They both sprouted on schedule, but the lettuce soon fell victim to something that ate all of it in two nights. I smail and bug bait out so I had no idea what ate the lettuce. The spinach got chewed somewhat but it evidently wasn’t as appetizing to the pests, so it is doing well.
Then last week I planted lettuce again and as soon as it was barely sprouted, it got attacked, but I spotted the culprits and it was birds. They were pulling up the very young sprouts to get the seeds. However, some of the larger sprouts survived the birds and they were starting to grow nicely. Then tonight I spotted the real lettuce thief.
A rabbit!
Living in the middle of suburbia, it is easy to forget that there are still wild animals around and rabbits are not only shy but largely nocturnal, so it isn’t surprising that you don’t see them very often.
I think the rabbit is cool and I’m willing to do without the lettuce. Hell, I think I’ll stop at the store tomorrow on the way home from work and buy some rabbit food and leave it out for him. His hiding place is under the shed, so I’ll leave some near there and see if he eats it.

Sometimes my progress in this internet marketing game seems to come at a glacial pace, but at least it comes, eh? I’m making significantly more now than I was a year ago, so I am happy about that. But I’m still nowhere near my goal of supporting myself entirely from internet income and so I get impatient.
Anyway, the good news is that March finished with three good days and I ended up with my best month ever. I hope every month is my best month ever. Car Police Auctions continues to be my star property with the most traffic and by far the most in earnings. My ACRU’s from that site are paying $28 and that’s a nice little chunk that drops in from time to time.
Right now I’m concentrating on site building and getting all my current domains up and running. Once that is done, I will go back and work at promoting all my sites with quality back links and new content and then I’ll be ready for another round of keyword research and new domains. And so it goes for the foreseeable future…
