		<description>Thanks for the kind words. Not sure what’s going on with the people telling you to stay away from informational niches, ALL my niches are information based. I have no product based sites that I’m earning with. Maybe these people were never earning and might not have things set up right? Not sure what to think of that kind of logic. If it has a high CPC and high volume of traffic with a lot of ads I can’t imagine you won’t earn. Maybe stay away from gambling and other niches that might eventually be banned/go down the tubes 
I hope that helps…
ts my first ever visit on this site……good information being shared here..
thanks once again.

		<description>Dear James, I hope you don&#039;t mean me!! LOL.  No, I know about Google ignoring the tags but I still use them and get my clients to, for the other search engines really.  When they all stop paying them any attention, I&#039;ll stop using them.  Having said all that, I do have one &quot;site-for-rent&quot;  that is Page One, Position One of Google for it&#039;s key phrase, that seems to have escaped the Panda Update, as all it has is a good URL and the All-In-One-SEO plugin, but no content yet I realised to my horror the other day!</description>

		<description>I hate to shoot a sacred cow, but Google ignores the Keywords meta tag. The Description meta tag is used to summarise a page in search results but that&#039;s it -- meta tags do not help your google search ranking. See these links for confirmation:

http://www.google.com/support/webmasters/bin/answer.py?answer=79812

http://googlewebmastercentral.blogspot.com/2009/09/google-does-not-use-keywords-meta-tag.html

Think about it -- if you could get a high ranking from meta tags, why bother to write content? You&#039;d end up with loads of sites with spammy meta tags and no content. 

So Google looks at the actual content of the page and ranks according to that, and completely ignores all meta tags. They aren&#039;t indexed and they don&#039;t help your search ranking. 

NB the  tag is both visible to users and is used by search engines. This is not a true  tag.</description>

		<description>I think your USP is a bit rambling. Here is my version: “The Business Success Factory – Your 21st Century outsourced marketing department.  We will slash your marketing budgets by 50% and increase profits by at least 20% within a year – or your money back, guaranteed!”</description>

		<description>Nicola, you are absolutely right. Opt-in pages are key. For years I ignored them and chose not to use them but if the promise truly is sufficient people will definitely use them. Period.
