<p>You know, one of the things I&#8217;ve realized which was key to me getting all the work I got done with the Sniper sites was developing a system to follow each day&#8230;I would set an expectation for what needed to be done for the day and then I&#8217;d have checkpoints throughout the day where I would assess how far along I&#8217;ve come to reaching my daily goals.</p>
<p>So for instance, near the end when I was making 2 Sniper Sites a day and 10 hubs, this is the schedule I setup for myself (Note: I work late)</p>
<ul>
<li>Get content for all sniper sites written up in Word format by 9:00pm</li>
<li>From 9-12am put up the 2 Sniper sites and promote them (BMD, RSS etc..)</li>
<li>From 12am-4 or 5am work on writing up 10 Word docs for hub content  &amp; then spend 1 hour uploading that to Hubpages and interlinking the Hubs</li>
</ul>
<p>I knew it would take me around 1 hour to write up the content for each Sniper site, so around 6-7pm I realized it was time to get down to business&#8230;</p>
<p>Then when I had written the content by 9, I knew it would take me around 1 hour for each site to be created, setup with posts and promoted, so I knew that if it hit 10pm it was time to get down to business once again&#8230;</p>
<p>Finally, I knew that it would take me 1 hour to write 4 articles for hubs, and thus 2 1/2 articles to write the hubs and another 1 hour to submit them and interlink them&#8230;.So again, I knew that by 1 or 1:30am I needed to buckle down.</p>
<p>The main goal for the day, as well as all the little checkpoints helped keep me on track and getting things done&#8230;As time went on, I changed those expectations and pushed myself harder to the point I made 3, 4 and then 6 sniper sites in a day..This is how I did it, this plus getting into the zone and once in the zone, writing non-stop and taking advantage of it.</p>
<p>SO&#8230;</p>
<p>Now that I&#8217;m making hubs full-time, I&#8217;ve had to figure out a whole new system to go by..I&#8217;m still working on it, but what I do know at this point is that I&#8217;m setting the goal of AT LEAST 20 hubs written and uploaded each day.  If I can maintain this, I will have 600 hubs by the end of the month.</p>
<p>Now seeing as how I&#8217;m going to be entering so many different niches for the hubs, I&#8217;ve needed to come up with a strategy for how I&#8217;m going to write for so many different topics.  I realized that if I try to write on multiple topics in the same day, I will not be able to enter the zone as easily because I&#8217;ll have my mind on 2 different subjects.</p>
<p>So I realized I&#8217;d need to work on only 1 niche each day&#8230;and as for how to write for all these niches I know little about, I&#8217;m using a tactic I used a long time ago to create my authority sites, the <strong>&#8220;Swipe File&#8221;</strong></p>
<p>Basically, I go into Ezine Articles, and search for &#8220;my niche + tips&#8221; and get back a ton of Ezine Articles with nicely laid out tips I can grab.  I take them, copy and paste them into a Word file, until I have a massive list of points to draw from.  I also go and pull points from regular websites as well&#8230;</p>
<p>Once I&#8217;ve go a large enough swipe file with enough different points, I then write my hubs, often times picking 3 or 4 points to talk about per hub article&#8230;.</p>
<p>Now today, I was writing on a topic that I found a good # of points for and a topic which I just found easy to write for and this is what happened while using the swipe file:</p>
<p><img class="alignnone" title="Hubs Written In Word Docs With Swipe File" src="http://i636.photobucket.com/albums/uu83/MikemanXii/MyHubArticles.jpg" alt="" width="596" height="435" /></p>
<p>As you can see, from about 11:20-2:34 I was able to get 15 450-500 word hubs completed in Word docs&#8230;that&#8217;s about 5 hubs an hour.  A big reason for that speed was due to the swipe file&#8230;other things that played a role were the fact that I found the niche easy to write for and I got into the zone&#8230;</p>
<p><strong>Earnings For Today:</strong></p>
<ul>
<li>$26.18 from Site #1</li>
<li>Adsense = $5.86 (Some Hubpage earnings in there)</li>
<li>548 hops</li>
</ul>

<p><span id="more-232"></span></p>
<p>I&#8217;m pretty tired today, just got back from going out and seeing Public Enemies&#8230;was a great movie with Johnny Depp and Christian Bale, a story about John Dillinger, set in the 1930&#8217;s..  Was really well done, you really felt you were in that time period, everything was duplicated so well, down to the smallest detail, unlike any other movie I&#8217;ve seen in that sense.  The movie was given 8.4(+ #215 of the top 250 movies of all time) on IMDB..</p>
<p>Well, I got home late, and all I had done before going out tonight was submit 2 of my UAW articles&#8230;Now, one thing I noticed was that my articles were given to me in batches since I ordered them, and it looks like some of my later batches were written by an author who clearly does not speak English as a first language&#8230;a stark contrast to the first few articles I got which were great.</p>
<p>So, this time around, rather than taking less than 2 min to revise ALL the articles, it took me about 5-6 minutes PER article!  I also had to add a bit to some of the paragraphs as they had them as just 1 or 2 sentences sometimes.  All in all though, this still saves me time as well as effort and it is done at a VERY cheap price, so given that, I&#8217;m STILL going to keep using them.</p>
<p>When I got home I ended up submitting another 2 UAW submissions (each submission builds backlinks for 2 of my sniper sites), and now I only have 1 more UAW submission to do to finish up the backlinking to about 22 of my newest sites.  I&#8217;ll probably be ordering some more articles either today, or tomorrow for the latest sites, as well as about 3-4 sites I made a long while back that I never got around to promoting via UAW&#8230;</p>
<p>I&#8217;m pretty tired right now so I&#8217;ll wrap it up there.</p>
<p><strong>Earnings For Today:</strong></p>
<ul>
<li>$53.56 &#8211; 2 sales from sniper sites in my main sniper niche = $27.12, $26.44</li>
<li>Adsense = $2.95</li>
<li>Hops = 450</li>
</ul>

So today, I began work on writing my UAW articles, I actually wrote and submitted 1 article which would build backlinks for 2 of my sites&#8230;that left me to create 11 more UAW Articles (1 for every 2 of my sites to build backlinks to, since I put in 2 links in each UAW submission)&#8230;
But [...]]]></description>

<p>So today, I began work on writing my UAW articles, I actually wrote and submitted 1 article which would build backlinks for 2 of my sites&#8230;that left me to create 11 more UAW Articles (1 for every 2 of my sites to build backlinks to, since I put in 2 links in each UAW submission)&#8230;</p>
<p>But before going on to work on some more, I recalled that earlier in the day I was talking to Debbie and she had mentioned a site, in passing, at which you can outsource UAW article writing&#8230;I&#8217;m not sure of the efficacy or quality of the work done here, but at the price that was being offered, I decided to give it a try&#8230;The site BTW is GetArticlesDone.com &#8230;</p>
<p>I ordered 11 UAW Articles as follows:</p>
<p>300+ words (6+ paragraphs, 3                 articles total):              $6.95</p>
<p>Then I paid an extra buck for each one for their &#8220;Rush&#8221; turn around&#8230;  They say they will &#8220;TRY&#8221; to get it done in 24-48 hours though:</p>
<p>&#8220;We try all to get your articles done     <span style="text-decoration: underline;">within 24-48 hours</span> but can&#8217;t promise that     though. Please also include some delay if you place bulk     orders.&#8221;</p>
<p>It seems like all these article writing services can&#8217;t manage to hold hard set deadlines, I&#8217;m pretty astonished by the fact that they can&#8217;t even guarantee that when you pay extra for it.  Anyway, I&#8217;ll see how this turns out, if I&#8217;m happy with it, I&#8217;ll probably continue to outsource my UAW articles.  The whole thing cost me about $88, which is about a day and a half of my current online income, in exchange, it&#8217;s probably saving me about 2=3 days of work.  Once this work is done, I&#8217;ll then go and submit all the articles myself&#8230;</p>
<p>Now that the backlinking is taken care of, I&#8217;m going to begin creating sites again tomorrow..</p>
<p><strong>Earnings For Today:</strong></p>
<ul>
<li>$45.52 &#8211; 1 Sale from Site#2 &#8211; $20.04, 1 Sale from a site in the main sniper niche = $25.48</li>
<li>Adsense = $2.53</li>
<li>Hops = 390</li>
</ul>
