		<description>On ne peut pas aujourd&#039;hui apprendre une langue etrangere sans connaitre le pays dont on etudie la langue, d&#039;autant plus que ce pays s&#039;appelle la Russie. Des liens seculaires d&#039;amitie lient nos deux peuples. L&#039;interet pour la Russie est deja traditionnel. On apprecie hautement les realisations de la culture, de la science et de la technique russe. On etudie profondement son passe historique, ses idees progressistes qui ont eu une grande influence sur le monde entier.

		<description>Mini sites work great for me using http://www.keylords.com/ keyword research tool. You can easily find tons of uncompetitive but highly profitable keywords to build niche sites on.</description>

		<description>Scott, thanks for responding to my question. I like the idea ref. creating a new article on the site and submitting it to the bookmarking sites. I have a couple of small projects where this method might work so I will give it a try.</description>

		<description>Proxy, sure I&#039;ll go back from time to time and do additional link building as needed for each site.

You will see how your sites are performing month to month and be able to tell when one is slipping in traffic and earnings. That usually indicates a slip in your SERPs (search engine) rankings for your target keywors, which means you need to do some additional link building for the site.

You can create a few new articles and submit those to build links when this happens, that&#039;s usually pretty effective.

But sometimes instead of writing more articles I&#039;ll concentrate on creating one new page for a site that&#039;s slipping, then once it&#039;s published I&#039;ll do some social bookmarking for it.

That serves a double purpose. First, search engines love new content, and second those social bookmark links carry instant authority to your new page and mini-site as a whole.</description>

		<description>Hi Scott, first of all nice post. Just wanted to ask about your link building. You state that after you have written the articles and submitted them you may go back and do a bit more link building but then you stop. My question is do you ever go back at any point and build up more links or do you just stop completely once your done?</description>

		<description>Hi Ernesto, you should read my posting on &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.obannonsleap.com/2008/01/22/niche-mini-sites-and-wordpress/&quot;&gt;Niche Mini-Sites and WordPress&lt;/a&gt; for some good information and links.

Basically, I&#039;ve only recently begun testing WordPress for use with Mini-Sites, but some claim it&#039;s a great platform and I link to a blog in that posting of a woman named Caroline, who I feel is becoming a real authority on using WordPress for niche sites, so I&#039;d say hers is a blog worth reading too.

The amount of content you use on a Mini-Site is really going to depend on the number of keywords you want to target.

If you target between 3 to 6 longtail keywords, you would have 3 to 6 &quot;articles&quot; on the site.

An important note here is that when I say &quot;longtail&quot; keywords for a Mini-Site I don&#039;t just mean keywords with low competition, I mean a low competition keyword that&#039;s buying in nature.

That&#039;s the part most people leave out of their &quot;plans&quot; and advice giving &quot;special reports&quot;.

It&#039;s easy to get a little traffic from any longtail keyword phrase, the key to success though is using longtails being searched for by people in a buying frame of mind.

For example, &quot;rubber coated plastic red widgets&quot; might be a great longtail phrase for widget related traffic, but people making that search are likely to be seeking information only and so you may have a hard time converting sales with them.

However, &quot;plastic red widgets with free shipping&quot; would be a much better term because people making that search are already planning to make a purchase and are just looking for a deal online. Get in-front of them and you&#039;ve got an easy sale.

As for updating content and search rankings, it&#039;s true for an active normal site that constant fresh content is required. But when you&#039;re targeting such low competition keywords as you would be with a Mini-Site it&#039;s pretty easy to stay up in the rankings without a lot of fresh content.

Think about it this way, the less competition your keywords have, the less movement the rankings for them will have too. So if you can add a little content or a couple of backlinks every so often you can usually keep your position in the rankings pretty easily.</description>

		<description>Is wordpress a good flatform in making mini-sites. I intend to create a number of mini-sites using wordpress. Do you think it is an inexpensive way of creating mini-sites?

How many articles/posts does a mini-site must have in order to be indexed and rank high on Google?

And if the pages of mini-site is limited, how will the mini-site stay alive and fresh? I thought sites are supposed to be updated with articles. In the case of mini-site, how can it maintain its place in Google search engine (and other search engines as well)?

Too many questions, pardon.. I hope you can replay to them. Thanks so much!</description>
