Day 1 – Niches, Domains, Hosting
Visit SiteDan Nickerson’s bootcamp for newbies is a super value. Heck, I’m not even a newbie, but I signed up based on Dan’s reputation and I have to tell you, he reviewed two of my sites and pointed out things I could do to improve them that made real differences for me. I’d have paid $500 for his notes.
Dan is a great instructor and person. I can’t say enough about his approach & no nonsense teaching. You get so much info for so little. Thanks Dan.
Interesting way of finding niches and sub-niches (targeted niches). I learned a lot from this video. The yahoo answers seems like a great tool for research. Thank for the great information.
