The Minority Report

Long time readers of The Minority Report…hahahahahahahah…whew.  I never get tired of that one.

Anyway, long time readers of this blog know (Free Roomba Attracts Cheap Bastards) that I’m totally addicted to my stats and find interesting stuff while browsing them minutely (is that a word?).

Today, I found that after all my hard work, minutes and minutes of typing a beautiful essay on forex trading, forex systems and forex trading systems, that I got exactly one visit here.

I don’t think it’s too much to ask to get rich while blogging so you fuckers start clicking on my forex trading ad and buying the Trading Club forex system.

It was the phrase “james de wet forex” which just goes to show you a few things about SEO and affliliate marketing. Yes…I’m going to tell you.

1.) Long tail search phrases work. Even though it was only one hit, “james de wet forex” is not a short tail phrase. “forex trading“, “forex systems“, “forex trading systems“, etc. are all short tail phrases. Hundreds, thousands and hundreds of thousands of other affiliate and blackhat marketers have the short tail phrases pretty much locked up (The Minority Report was on page 47 but it still worked…).

2.) Hundreds, thousands and hundreds of thousands of other affiliate and blackhat marketers have the short tail phrases pretty much locked up. If you are just starting out with your SEO and affiliate marketing strategy, do what the experts (not me) tell you and aim for something a little bit less covered. Try “rare african hummingbirds” or “weight loss for parakeets”.

Finally, I will not stop ranting about this until I am rich, sunburned and surrounded by blonds serving me coconut milk out of a platinum and diamond encrusted crunk cup.
