Handling members of a site is easy using plugins like Wishlist Member or Magic Members. You can also run your own affiliate program using Affiliat Royale or Magic Affiliate.

Yes,

I definitely focus on SEO the old fashion way.. being that I lack the SEO skills to do a ton of link trades and other little shortcuts, perhaps doing it organically will benefit me with the Panda updates in all.

No cookie cutter sites with me, all by the hand.

When you say long tailed keywords, how are those beneficial to target?

Also,

what is a solid foundation to go after one specific KW or phrase, if you had to just go for one. Where is a good place to start, and how long can you expect some results to take (I know it depends on the uniqueness of what kw's your after and competition, etc).

I have always done barely the basics with SEO, and have never ranked well for my sites (other than blogs) for any kw's other than the main theme of the site niche.

I myself personally am all about the pitch and traffic buys, all about the packaging and design, making it enticing as possible. I never learned SEO, I just think out the next man.

Meaning, I specialize in knowing what traffic to purchase, and how to make ultra converting landing pages/frontends. I am also guilty of over-hyping the product at times, which I'm not proud of. The benefit to this is, you don't have to know much coding and other detail oriented stuff, and if you push volume it's worth it, it's very short term thinking.. but I'm good at the creatives.

The negative is if you stop buying traffic you get zero sales, can't do rev share always pps, spend hell of money on designers, have to invest more money period, never rank well in seo because of the method I drive my traffic, etc.

So I've finally got some time to do things properly for once, and I'm starting with wordpress. I want long term organic sales, even if it's just a constant dribble of income instead of the larger dollars I get from the daily pitch.
