I learned a long time ago it doesn’t matter how much competition there is. I ran a really long thread on the dp forum where I gave my domain, keywords, what I was bidding, etc… I had some people just copy my website and try to duplicate exactly what I do. I even gave my own sister my blueprint. For whatever reason, even she couldn’t duplicate my success, not even close. She gave up.

And that’s the difference, 99.9999% of the people will not do the work necessary to succeed. That’s why I’m so impressed with your results. So don’t worry about copycats and hijackers. They will fail by their very nature – which is primarily being lazy.

Hey Sara,

Ya, I get distracted too, no big deal…in the end though I do my best to get the work done, even if I have to stay up way late..

I think the key to getting this thing working is going to be doing the backlinking to the hubs from Ezine or Infobarrel..

@Rob

Rob thanks man, but I got to tell you, this is what I was afraid of happening, being looked up and opening myself up to the possibility of people jumping into my niches.

I suppose it was inevitable..but I’m no guru, making 10k/month and am putting this info up for free..I hope this isn’t a mistake, the last thing I want is for it to bite me in the ass.

Your keyword research, the writing you do on your sites, and the many late nights building all of it is unbelievable. Very very impressive!

You have totally got me excited about Hubbing, Mike. I failed with my attempt on Tuesday to get 7 hubs up but I got 6 up. Yesterday I got totally distracted by one of my Youtube health friends who was chatting with me in IM most of the day and sending me links that I was only able to research new keywords for hubs I was suppose to create for the day and I only got 4 hubs up. So now I am at 10 in 2 days.

If hubpages works out for me as I plan for it, then I am going to talk my sister into it and possibly my mom since it’s totally free to do. No domain buying, no special software just pure keyword research and good ol’ fashioned writing *blech*.

Hey Ryan, thanks for the offer man, much appreciated! :>

I just ran across this post and wanted to let you know that if you ever need any help with your Hubs or have any questions regarding HubPages, you can shoot me an email and I’ll help you out. Good to see that you’re finding some early success with your Hubs, which is great because they’re only going to gain more authority as time goes on!

Happy Hubbing and let me know if you ever need anything –
