The Thirty Day Challenge

I recently signed up to do the Thirty Day Challenge. After all, I have nothing better to do, ha ha. Seriously, I thought it looked great and offered a quick road into understanding all the technology out there and how it works. It covered blogging, SEO's, Adwords, Market Sumarai, Keywords, and everything a newbie could want to know about internet marketing.

How I came to find out about it was that I was on You Tube looking for some interesting videos I could use on the new ning.com site, Twitter Go Getters and I came across this interesting guy called Ed Dale, who seemed to have copious amounts of videos on all the basics.

So being the research freak that I was, I decided to check him out.

Then, quite by chance, I was following up on researching the competition and thought I'd check out another women's network from NSW. I was surprised to find that this group was a syndicate that were doing the Thirty Day Challenge. I did wonder why they only had a one-page squeeze page up and no other website. It wasn't until I saw Ed Dale there on their home page that I realised what was going on! They were only part way through the challenge. :)

So I have started this mini-adventure.

Day 1 I sped through the DVD's like there was no tomorrow. I just wanted more, so I hopped over to Day 2 and got started. This is where I came unstuck. Either I'm a slowby, which is quite possible, or keyword research is really tough! Finding a niche - yikkkkeeesss! If I stay with Women Can and networking, then there appears to be a small niche there but how do I drill it down? Do I go completely local and find the mini niche of Perth or Australia?

Then there is analysing the competition. I need a partner! I need someone who actually enjoys doing the headbend analysis stuff. Bring on June Kelly, the whizz! Can't wait for her to get up to speed and help me out here.

So, I'm now up to Day 4 . I guess it doesn't help that I had the flu for the first three days of the challenge. Perhaps if I go back and start at the beginning with a non-flu-ridden body, things may be okay.

Wish me luck as I adventure!!!
