Ok…the first template is ready and I had it for sale for a few days and it is downloaded 40+ times now and gets very positive feedback.

I saw that I made a mistake in the url in my previous post as I linked to my deblogging site. The site with the Niche Wordpress Templates is located at http://www.wpnichetemplates.com

The very first Template is a template all about the Beauty Niche (skin care etc is a highly sought for niche) and is build with a niche site in mind instead of a blog. So in my opion it doesn’t look like a blog but uses wordpress as an engine and so it’s a highly seo-ed (i have included the plugins) site.

To get things going I priced the template at an absurd amount….My wife is saying I am crazy and insists that I should ask more but all I want is a customer that things…WOW THIS IS A GREAT DEAL…..so the price is only $4.50

For $4.50 you will receive the template, psd of the header and a custom admin panel so you can change the ads without knowing any line of code

The template demo and shop can be found here http://www.wpnichetemplates.com/products-page/

Let me know what you think about the template and if you buy it and need installing it just send me an email or post a comment and I’ll be glad to help you.

I am building a membership site where you can download 50 new and fresh niche templates for wordpress each and every month. It’s part of a serie of sites and projects that I am doing but this one will be ready first.

WP Niche Templates will be build in line of my deblogging style. The sites will look like normall sites and not like blogs and I will mainly use graphics from stockexpert.com to maintain quality. But they will use Wordpress as a engine and thus benefit from the feautres Wordpress has to offer.

I haven’t decided on a price yet but I am leaning around $0.50 per template which works out at about $24.95 a month.

This is esspecialy interesting for you if you are making website using wordpress and have a membership to a PLR site. Now you can make sites that look good and are easier to get links to and vistrs will actually like what they see and thus will faster buy things from your affiliate links.

What I include is not only an easy management system for the template but also point and click affiliatelinks and adsense integration. No html, no php all done from the admin area of wordpress.

If you are a member of Warriorforum look out for a WSO from me (edynas) as I will release a templates first thru there to get some comments and feedback.

Having more then 1 domain and site is something that I advacate for a long time. Instead of thinking company minded you should think produkt minded if you are selling online.

Being specific and narrow down the niche of your site. It makes it easier to market if your website is fi about mountain bike holidays in south New Sealand then if you are making a site about traveling in general. But what if you also sell traking packages in New Sealand…would you include it in your mountainbike site or do you think it’s better to have a new site?

My advice would be …spend $8 and make a new site. As those are your sites I see no harm in interlinking the two. Now the best thing would be if the two sites are on different servers. Search engines give points to various things and having links from different places is one of them.

So what if you have 50 topics all about New Sealand traveling and each has enough info to justify a site. That would mean that if you set up a network on different servers it would cost you 50 times the hosting accounts and have a hard time handling all the details with ftp, stats and managing it all . So when a hostingcompany I used and highly recommand send me an email that they had a new service called seohosting I was intrigued and had to look.

Seohosting.com is a Hostgator division and they offer plans starting with 5 different c-classes for $35 a month upto 50 different c-classes for $ 237.50. On each c-class you can have as many domains as you want so if you want to build more networks of interlinking sites this is a great deal as it makes it easier to handle it all and is cheaper then having dozens of hostingaccounts for $10 a month.
Using this service means that you can build your network of sites having seo in mind

It’s been too long that I have done anything here at edynas.com but that didn’t ment that I wasn’t working. I made a promise to myself to make more posts here and altho it’s late and I am going away for a week tomorrow I just wanted to share something.

I have been working for myself for nearly 3 years and love the freedom it gave me. But I also work hard and I have to confess not smart….you see I still trade hours for money. My main business is making personalized mugs which we sell because of our website. I have no budget for ads and do not send out flyers, brochures or whatever. We only get customers because of our rankings in the search engines. It’s great but it’s not what we want as with many businesses we started out with something and from 1 thing came an other which let to our current situation…call it dreaming but what I have in mind is traveling a lot and seeing places all over the world without worrying to much about the budget. Second I would love to be able to help others that are in need….well let’s not make this a “world peace thing” but with me and my wife it’s not only about us but also about sharing with those who need it.

What has this all to do with making money online with blogs?
Besides the mug business I have been working with wordpress sites for some time now and I absolutly love the way it works. Before I build sites by hand using notepad and it took me days if not weeks to get a site the way I wanted it. In May when my wife was away I used two weeks to setup 80 sites running on Wordpress. If I wanted too it could have been more but I wanted to have the sites a good look and feel and took the time to each site header images and content. An example is http://www.fitnessapparatuurwinkel.info/ On average each sites makes me $0.20 a day. It doesn’t sound much but after the site was done I haven’t done anything to it anymore. They are more like sites then they are blogs but benefit from the features wordpress has. Using a Google Sitemap plugin, a ratingsystem, seo title and the overall structure makes a blog a highly optimized site for the search engines.

My Google Adsense earnings for May 2007 was US$ 736.51. I was shocked to see that brings me close to what John Chow made in June with Adsense But what I finall did was something he also says to do….spread the incomestream. I got accepted to TLA (and made $6 this month) I focused more on affiliateproducts from Maxbounty and Azoogleads. Promoted some local dutch affiliateprograms and my total non business income for May 2007 came close to $1700. June slipped a bit due to a drop in Adsense which was for June $ 526.76.

The whole month of June I have been programming in php and am trying to make an application that will automate and simplify the things I did in May. It’s coming soon and I called it WP Octopus. I may be needing some betatesters for it and if you are interested to do so let me know by sending an email at printcoach @ gmail . com I’ll be back at Saturday the 14th and expect to open it up for testers the week after it. But first…I’ll go to Praque with my wife for a week…will be taking the laptop along tho as I can’t stop working on my new project. But if you email me and I don’t respond it might be because of this lil vacation.

Take care,
Edwin

PS a great thing I heared today….If you don’t do something because you are afraid it might not work….guess what..it didn’t worked for sure. Only if you try and do something things will change
