Advice on your websites with multiple niches
I have been absent from WA fro the last week. The reason - I had to redo my website and turn it into four websites.
You see I started with the idea in my mind that my company, at that point called uRpotential will deal in 4 areas in a person's life, namely, getting financially free, getting healthy through diet, getting fit through exercise and getting motivated through personal development.
I believed that these would work in a single website as these are the services my company would offer. Thing is though, I always had this nagging in the back of my mind that I am diluting the power of the niche.
So I asked Kyle about it, and he set me straight. and I am putting it in this blog with the hope that it will spare someone else the absolute mission I am currently going through.
If you have four niche ideas, use each niche in its own website. You will get better ranking in google, better conversion form visitors and you will have a clearer message to the site visitor. Don't take this from me, this comes from the men that know.
I will be out of action on WA until monday when Hopefully all four websites will be up and running and all the content has been split between them.

You are right Marius, we can't be an online Wal-mart that offers multiple items to do one-stop shopping. It is much better to focus on one thing only so the search engines know how and where to rank your website. Good luck to you.

Yeah. I had that same problem. I deal in the Arts and Entertainment sector. I also like the online business world of course so if you're following you can only imagine the confusion I put myself through. I done the same thing. Within the wealthy affiliate program. I was able to break down each of my passions down into individual sites and link them all back to on main one.
Oh wow! I was going to do a mommy blog with three seperate sub niches on baby sleep, baby eczema and baby fashion. But I see what you mean. Its just that it will be so hard to come up with newer content all the time for just one niche.
Thankfully I split my niches into three separate sites from the beginning. It does however bring its own challenges as I am trying to do 6 posts a week, 2 for each site. So far I am managing it but it is very time consuming.
Good luck with your ventures.
With Grace and Gratitude

A very good advice from Kyle. Even if it led to extra work :)
Remember that there will be ways that you can "connect" your sites by referring to relevant articles on one of the other sites and so on. As long as the sites are your and you are monetizing all of them there should be no danger in sending visitors between them. But before doing that you should make sure that all four sites are up and going standalone sites.
Thanks for the heads up. Great advice and strategies from the seasoned online marketers!
