jb, nice man, that’s some damn good results. Looks like the system you’ve got going is working out for you.

I myself have a system I’m following, although I’m experimenting a bit with it for a site or two to see what happens.

My adsense snipers have been doing really well, some (usually the ones with 10 pages) are ranking well and doing $2-4 a day each already even though they are still a few weeks old. Some have been subjected to the google dance for a while but have come back up to page 1 again and doing even better.

I’m very picky with my niches now. I only ever pick 1)if domain for exact keyword is available in .com/.net/.org; 2) there are at least 5 related keywords with more than 1500 searches each; 3) main keyword gets at least 3000 searches; 4) competing pages is below 100K and the top 3 pages are below PR5; 5) CPC of at least $2.50

I’ve had sites which do not meet all criteria above but they are doing only a few cents/day so I’m through “compromising”. Some niches are tempting but from now on I’m sticking to just those “sure money” ones.

The challenge really is doing the niche research well and of course finding the great ones.
