July expriments

I spent the weekend running experiments rather than watching the tennis, and I have to admit it was a very successful weekend from a learning perspective.
First I tried the ECU wp-o-matic technique, and it took me about a hour to setup the site, figure out how to work a cron job and build a feed in ECU, after this stuff had been sorted, i tested the site and it worked amazingly well. I did a second test on another exisiting site and it took me 20 minutes including setting up a cron job and building the feed. The only down side was whilst there was content in each post, it was standard and I still needed to add more to these posts, but this was easily solved and a longer term part of optimising the site, overall, this is one technique I’ll definately be using, and definately work the £19.99 a month on ECU Pro, which you can get here. I’ll be watching the performance of the sites closely to see what happens however given that this is a technique for populating a site and isn’t related to SEO or the performance of an affiliate site, i would suggest this was a success.
Next i setup a small site to test a theory based on the conversation I had with a Black hat made-for-adsense affiliate. The main reason for me doing this was to see if there was anything that could be learned that could be used to improve the performance of a legitimate affiliate, initially this strategy looked like an amazing way of filling out a blog in a matter of minutes, once the blog was made, it was literally – fill out a for and press a button and your entire site would be content full. amazing, however, the content was no doubt duplicate and would only really benefit niche marketing. Still it was a worthwhile test.
