Hello WA'ers!

I haven't written a blog in awhile, and I decided on a whim to come back and post a goodie for anyone who's struggling to build up their first niche site.

Normally people are very protective of their niche sites or whatever, but I don't feel like I really need to be at this point and it's more valuable for me to show this to everyone at WA because someday I may want to launch my own product and this is a good way of being transparent and working on that whole trust angle (full disclosure!)

I really can't stand blatant dishonesty, so sometimes I tell it like it is even when I know I'll end up losing some people. Hey, the ones that stick around are usually my kind of people anyway.

So without further ado, my very first profitable niche site is here:

http://www.bonsaitreeforsale.org

I had been working on it for a very long time, and I'm probably too much of a perfectionist in many ways. Not every site has to be absolutely perfect or even nearly perfect to be profitable. I've thought about selling this site a few times and I never do because it's my first profitable site. It has sentimental value, and not to mention actual monetary value! This thing made me $31.58 today. Woohoo!

So that's pretty exciting, but it really took me awhile to get to this point, and I know some of you out there just don't "get it" yet, it takes time. I overcomplicated the whole process and must admit fear was an obstacle when I started out. Fear and laziness.

When you find your balance and can start working on just one thing at a time and see it through then you're on your way.

I don't have much else to add at the moment, but feel this could be a mutually beneficial thing to show the site that started me making money online.

P.S. If anyone is struggling with something, I enjoy helping those I can so you're invited to email me at mcguire.ian@gmail.com with your questions. I find that I'm still learning a lot and questions spark thoughts I never would've had, so ask away!
