Quality content is a good way to go. Each section and page focused enough to not only do well in the search engines but to have a purpose for the audience.

During my experimentation phase I had a lot of shallow sites that depended on random people coming and then leaving (hopefully through adsense). The downside being that once they leave they don’t come back…

My focus lately is to add quality sites to my portfolio. The difference is amazing because I get repeat traffic. It even goes a step farther and becomes the research base that my visitors use to find what they are seeking instead of the search engine alone.

This translates in to significantly better ctr and perceived value. I have a handful of these sites now that follow the same formula.

Its refreshing to see so many new posts speaking to high quality sites again! Enough of the site in a day classes – the sites you, Jeremy and others are talking about are not spam – they are the real deal.

I wrote a similiar blog yesterday about crooked affiliates –

Your post is food for thought for us newbies. We have to start somewhere. I do not have the professional background you had Andrew, so for me the road to success may include a lot of “dead ends.” I have found that affiliate programs that are realistic about the work required and have ongoing support, do lay a foundation for our internet marketing education. You are correct in that eventually we have to have our own “..branded viable website.”
