I made my first money online a little while back with your $5 a day Mini-Site Formula. It's funny how I made my first dollars with a free report after spending so much money on paid products with no success. Go figure. Much love to you Josh.

It's amazing, i've picked my niche, set up my site, and submitted 8 articles to ezinearticles.com (nowhere else yet). Yesterday I got 10 visitors, 2 clicks, and $5.94 in earnings! I can't wait to see how the site performs when I've done all my submissions. Thanks for your great information and guidance. Neil Hi Josh

I'm just getting started with it and have a few questions. Most importantly, can you give me a rough estimate on how long these mini-sites maintain that $5/day after the initial article submission traffic dries up? Also, about how long does it take for the google serp traffic to take over for the submission traffic, and is there a gap in between? Hey Josh

The initial traffic comes from articles. In some cases that traffic will fall off (although great articles may take on a life of their own and provide traffic for a long time). Longer term, the backlinks from your articles will create good SE rankings for your long tail keywords. This can take a while (1-4 months in some cases), and depends on lots of things including how well you do in selecting keywords. So, my advice (which you did not ask for) is to double check your target keywords and stay with it. If you are #1 in google for a search term, you can have that traffic every day for a long time with little maintainance. Hope that helps. @Dan;

Getting up to $5 a day is fine but my article traffic always seems to taper off after about a week or two.

Can you explain more about judging if a site is an authority when you try to determine if phrase can work? Do you find that the bum guideline of seeing if there is 10,000 competing using quotes is a good mark for ezinearticles doing well in engines? How do you determine "acheivable" when you look at Alexa? What numbers would you use? Deb OOPS one more thing.

Can you explain what you meant by above sentence? Also I find that the long tail phrases that I do well in ezinearticles as well as buzzle and other directories with are good for a bit but then when others use same phrase they will push down my pages deeper into google so I lose clicks. What do you do when that happens ? Deb Josh,

However I can't follow your advice since I only have 1 site at the moment! Since posting the query yesterday I've had 4 clicks averaging $1.00 - so perhaps it was just a normal fluctuation.
