By taking part, Ed takes you starting from nothing, without requiring any prior technical experience, to developing your first online properties and making your first dollar online. This year they’re releasing all the lessons in one go and you can go at your own pace through the challenge. Each day requires about 30 minutes of your time from lesson plan to implementation (give or take a few minutes depending on the day). Stay tuned and I’ll be posting important lessons I learn as I go through the program — or better yet, go sign up yourself (doesn’t cost anything!) and join me and all the others in the forum to discuss our progress and help motivate each other.

Day 1: find a domain
Day 2: we use market samurai to find content to write about for our chosen niche

In day 5, we were to create tables of our niches and keywords that matched certain market samurai search criteria. I’ll share one of those tables (and niches) that DIDN’T match the search criteria below:

game server hosting (theme / niche)
clan hosting
teamspeak server hosting
counter strike server hosting
tf2 server hosting
dedicated game server

Day 6 had us look at competing sites related to our chosen keywords.

Day 7 had us look for market indicators related to our niche.

Day 4 had us use the Market Samurai tool to find some niches that match pre-given criteria in order for us to make sure we are able to compete the given niches. I’m still debating whether to share my niches yet or not, as the more competition there is the worse it’ll be for me starting out ;)

I’ve tried changing the cookie using FireFox’s webmaster tools to various values (1, 31337, 1337, leet, etc) but it just switches back to 0 each time.Anyone happen to have any guesses or perhaps inside knowledge into the use of this cookie?
