My new Japanese Diet website is already listed in Google. If you search on “japanesediet” you can hit the site. Of course no-one will be searching on this, but just copying and pasting some text from the site and googling it brings up the site. Why is this good? Most new sites get “sandboxed” by [...]

I know I write about websites more than I write about realestate as, which is what I wanted this blog to be more about but there isn’t really too much to write about buying an investment property. Anyway, I am in the process of purchasing house number five. Settlement is due just before Christmas. I [...]

I have set up a new web about Japanese healthy foods. I thought it would be an interesting combination of increasingly popular Japanese food with healthy diet information. My goal is to write at least 30 pages of content by the end of the year and then see what happens with the site.

I have so many different ideas for websites, on one hand I know I should really think strongly if I can be bothered pursuing a website that I might not be interested in one week later and on the hand I feel that ever-green websites with at least 50 pages of content on a registered [...]

My bad design skills

Someone made a comment saying my dotjapan.com web site could be more successful if the design was better and didn’t look so amateurish. I totally agree! But I really wonder if income would increase if the design was better. If you search “jobs japan”, one of the highest ranking sites is www.jobsinjapan How great is [...]

Logging into my Adsense account this morning I had to accept the new conditions set out by Google. I also noticed a new tab for Google’s new Adsense referral program. There are some fairly lengthy discussions going on over at Webmasterworld about the program. I would find it amazing if there are any webmasters or [...]

My Adsense earnings are down this month to $647. Overall traffic was up with the launch of a couple of new sites and my ever ending quest to add new content.
