Report: 90 Percent of Condo Buyers Are Foreigners
By Kyle Munzenrieder
Rent a Life
First, you'll need a car that costs more than your parents' house. Preferably, this vehicle should be of Italian make, as loud as a Hell's Angels motorcade, and the color of a Skittle. There are countless places to rent a Lamborghini or Ferrari in South Florida — but you don't want to do business with 98 percent of those hucksters. More often than not, the hirsute and gold-chained fellow trying to rent you an exotic vehicle doesn't have such a car in his possession — he's planning on renting it himself from some down-on-his-luck music producer. Which means there's no proper insurance. Which means if anything happens to the car on your watch, you're going to end up owing Scott Storch $400,000, which could get messy.
The ride
There are a few places on the up-and-up. In Miami-Dade, try American Luxury Auto Rental (305-526-1016), where you might be berated by the gruff, exotic-car Nazi manning the front desk, but you can have your pick of hundreds of luxury rides, and the insurance situation is legitimate. And if you're in Broward or Palm Beach, it's Gotham Dream Cars in Dania Beach (561-992-8700) — perhaps the only rental spot in the region where the staff seems to appreciate you're shelling out $700 a day for the experience. They even wear uniforms. (And, yep, that's how much a "budget" Ferrari will run you. On the high end, a Mercedes-Benz SLR McLaren will cost more than $4,000 for a weekend.)
The pad
If you park your rented Lamborghini outside a Biscayne Boulevard flop hotel, not only will it look tacky but also somebody is going to have sex in it. No, you'll need matching lodging. You're going to have to rent a mansion. Pay a visit to what might be South Florida's quintessential industry: the "lifestyle broker" — where not only will they procure you a few days in a villa that belongs to an indicted Miami financier, but also they will get your Elephant Man-esque mug past the velvet ropes at exclusive nightclubs. One of many providers that will sell you the full package is Carefree Lifestyle on South Beach (866-589-8796) — but considering that plebeians are attempting to rent their one-bedrooms for thousands a day during Super Bowl weekend, you better come armed with a mighty high credit limit. And don't worry: Your borrowed glitz need not be land-locked. Lifestyle brokers rent yachts too.
Look the Part
In South Florida, there are some well-known rules concerning personal appearance if you ever want to make it into the VIP section. First, every square inch of your body must be the hue of Kraft macaroni and cheese. Every inch. Yep. We'll get to that in a moment.
Second, the only places where hair follicles are acceptable are: (a) on the top of your head, (b) in threaded form, above your eyes, and (c) above your upper lip in bushy form — but only if you're a male who has smuggled more than a kilo of cocaine into this country and can prove it with old police reports. That third rule is strictly enforced.
How can you acquire such a look? Read on, our naive Kansan friend.
For that "every square inch" thing we mentioned above, there is a product called "anal bleaching cream" that really requires no explanation. It sells for $50 a tube, and you can find it at most waxing centers in South Florida, including the South Beach Body Waxing Co. (305-531-3130). That's where a counterperson reminded us that, for maximum effect, you should probably get your nether region's 5 o'clock shadow removed by one of their technicians before applying the cream. Their bikini wax costs $14 for women and $35 for men.
Then head to a tanning salon — and leave your Speedo on the floor before stepping into the capsule for the full-body effect. Sure, there's the beach, but that just doesn't supply the same radioactive glow. Little-known fact: On some corners of SoBe and Las Olas in Fort Lauderdale, municipal officials shut off streetlights so tourists can watch the glowing people stream from club to club. It's like a subtropical version of the northern lights.
Beware of Scammers
Unfortunately, South Floridians addicted to the high life have concocted far more nefarious methods of living beyond their rightful means than the maxed-out credit card. From Ponzi schemes to Medicare fraud to embezzlement, this is a land of scams, and the past couple of cash-strapped years have seen the exposure of a Rolex-wearing army of local con men and charlatans. Once you look like a million bucks, these characters will find you. Hide the silver. And the anal cream. Here are a few warning signs.
What's his car's vanity plate?
For instance, how many N's does he use to spell his version of "STUNNNNNA"? More than five and you know he's the fly-by-night type. Beware. Fewer than five means he has at least been established in Florida for a while. Also, if his license plate is, say, "STOXNBONDS" but he tells you he's in the medical supplies field, he might be getting his scams mixed up.

Balancing Acoustics
Improve acoustics in noisy areas with higher noise reduction coefficient (NRC)
and ceiling attenuation class (CAC) ratings. According to ceiling system manufacturer,
USG Corp., Chicago, a minimum NRC rating of 0.55 is important, with ratings
of 0.80 to 0.90 NRC and 35 to 39 CAC for open-plan office environments optimal.
NRC measures a ceiling panel's ability to reduce sound reverberation within
a space. CAC is a measurement that indicates the transference of sound through
a panel into an adjoining area.
Consider how the surfaces in a space will impact acoustics. According to Rosa
Lee, marketing manager, architect and owner segments, USG Corp., "In a
conference room where you're using a lot of hard surfaces - glass walls, metal
top tables, wood floors - you'll want a higher noise reduction."
Stained. Sagging. Nicked. Look up - is this what you see?
Establishing the right ceiling system for a retrofit or new construction project
may seem difficult. With so much to choose from and consider - design, properties,
performance attributes, etc. - you may feel a migraine coming on. Hopefully,
the following tips will ease your brain strain.
Acoustical ceiling panels have been progressively shrinking in size - from the
2-foot by 4-foot panels favored previously to the 2-foot by 2-foot panels currently
preferred. When retrofitting a ceiling to accommodate this smaller dimension,
the suspension system can be outfitted with cross tees that allow for the look
of contemporary 2-foot by 2-foot layouts. "Survey the grid," warns
Rosa Lee, marketing manager, architect and owner segments at Chicago-based USG
Corp. Make sure that the existing suspension system is in good shape before
modifying and adding new panels.
If the suspension system requires replacement and the layout of the space is
unchanged, existing hanger wire locations can often be reused, cutting installation
"You should expect at least 10 years out of your system," says John
Mandel, manager of corporate communications at USG Corp. However, some manufacturers
offer lifetime warranties.
Be sure to read the fine print. When only one component of a system is purchased
(i.e. panels), the length of the warranty often diminishes. Installing new ceiling
panels in an existing grid during retrofit could limit the duration of time
the panels are covered under warranty.
With so much above the ceiling (sound masking, HVAC plenum, and wire/cable),
the removal of ceiling panels for accessibility purposes is inevitable - and
frequent. "Most ceiling tiles have direction," Lee says, and can easily
be replaced incorrectly. To lessen the chance of this, companies like USG are
offering non-directional products that simplify replacement and installation.
Investigate whether non-directional panels are right for your application.
In areas where durability is a priority, cast panels are recommended. With a
more impact-resistant surface and integral color throughout, they can sustain
more abuse. However, because panels will suffer from nicks and smudges during
removal and replacement, replacing panels may be necessary occasionally to keep
the ceiling in "like-new" condition. Check with the manufacturer to
see how long the product you are purchasing will be available.
If indirect lighting is a source of illumination in your facility, the ability
of a ceiling panel to reflect that light down, evenly dispersing it over a workstation,
should be a primary consideration during ceiling system selection. Higher light
reflectance (LR) values can minimize the number of lighting fixtures needed,
which will also reduce the number of lamps that require changing - saving both
time and money. An LR rating of 0.85 or higher is recommended.
Moisture over time can cause ceiling panels to sag in the middle, creating a
pillow-effect. If you live in an area of the country that experiences high humidity
or are installing a ceiling system in a moisture-prone area, choose products
with this in mind. Many manufacturers incorporate sag-resistant formulas into
their products.

The Michigan State Spartans kick off the season with a road opener against the No. 1 ranked Minnesota Golden Gophers.
The Gophers are defending their league title this season and will be very capable of doing so. Six of their top seven scorers are returning, as well as all six of their starting defensemen. Two elite freshmen, Mike Reilly and Brady Skjei, have also joined the team and will fight for playing time with the veteran defense core. Simply put, the Gophers are stacked.
Yet, despite Minnesota's lofty preseason ranking, the Spartans are not intimidated. Michigan State proved to be a tough match-up for Minnesota last season, when the No. 2 Gophers lost three points to the Spartans in a series in East Lansing.
However, the Spartans today are a much different team than last year. Michigan State saw the departure of nine seniors, as well as former captain and Hobey Baker finalist Torey Krug, who opted to go pro and signed a free-agent contract with the Boston Bruins. The Spartans will return this season with just 55% of their scoring from last season. 70% of their scoring from forwards returns, while just 11.6% of scoring from their defensemen returns. Pressure will be on new captain Greg Wolfe and the forwards to pick up the slack offensively.
Defensively, the young Spartan defense core will have junior Will Yanakeff in net to fall back on. Last season, Yanakeff was ranked fifth in win percentage (13-9-1, 58.7%), fifth in save percentage (.922), 10th in goals against average (2.50), and has proven to be a solid defensive foundation between the pipes.
Minnesota on the other hand will have to make do without their starting net-minder Kent Patterson, who left for the NHL. Last year Patterson won the WCHA Goaltending Champion award as the goalie with the lowest goals against average (2.06) and helped lead Minnesota to a Frozen Four championship. Now the Gophers will have to make do with two inexperienced goaltenders, Michael Shibrowski and Adam Wilcox. Both of whom have yet to prove they are a legitimate starting goalie. With goaltending being the most important position in the game, Minnesota's skaters will have to step up big time to fill Patterson's void.
If Michigan State is going to take series they will have to stick to their physical game and avoid playing Minnesota's up temp style. Overcoming their youth and inexperience and exploiting Minnesota's weak goaltending will be the name of the game.

First of all, I wanted to say THANK YOU to all the great seed keywords that were submitted on my previous post here. I actually received 113 seed keyword ideas! Obviously I was not able to use all of those, but I do appreciate the enthusiasm.
The point of me gathering all of those seed keywords was so that I could then show on video how I go from a seed keyword to finding winning keywords that I could build a niche website on. Trust me that the chasm between seed keyword and niche site keyword is often a bigger gap than some people realize. However, in this very long video that I made this morning you will be able to see how I do just that.
I took the 113 seed keywords you submitted and randomly sorted them in excel. If I were to choose the seed keywords myself I would have skipped over a lot of these. But the point of this experiment here is to show that I don't have some magic source of seed keywords that I go to in order to find great niche site topics. So, I took all the seed keywords (whether I felt they were good or bad) and used Long Tail Pro to generate additional keywords and then begin the process of narrowing those down.
I created Long Tail Pro for the reason that I was not happy with other keyword tools out there like Market Samurai (and other tools). Most keyword tools are not built to look at lots of different seed keywords quickly. What I do on this video that took me an hour and a half in Long Tail Pro would have taken easily 10 hours – simply because you can only enter 1 seed keyword at a time on Market Samurai. Anyway, the point is that I created Long Tail Pro for scratch to meet the needs of niche website creators like myself.
You also hopefully find useful the video because it shows how I think about keywords and how I decide if I can rank well for these keywords quickly in Google or not. So, all said and done I literally compiled the seed keywords this morning that you suggested. I then went through the process that I showed on video generating and looking for great seed keywords for about 1 hour and 18 minutes. In that period of time I found 16 keywords that I felt I could rank for in the top 10 of Google.
However, I then decided that a couple of these were either brand names or had no advertisers, so I would NOT target those keywords. Some of the keywords were borderline as to whether or not I would target those because I would only be on the bottom of the first page (if at all). So, I ended up with 6 keywords that I feel good about building sites on. Those keywords are:
The keywords that I would MAYBE go after (these have potential but seem slightly more difficult):
Other keywords I decided not to do:
Overall, I don't know if I will actually ever build niche sites on these keywords because this information is now public. I imagine that as soon as people see this, these markets will suddenly be flooded with niche sites. So, while I WOULD usually buy up domains for at least the top 6 if I hadn't have made a public video; I do not plan to build sites on these at this time.
Overall, I hope you enjoyed the video and please leave your comments below! The best part is that I was able to make the video, find these keywords, and add this blog post, all before lunch!
Thanks for the video, its 38 minutes video and in your email you mentioned "i hour and 18 minutes"!
Watch the video and you will see why. I did indeed spend 1hr 18minutes doing keyword research.
This is a great case study Spencer, will watch the video tonight.
BTW, I have a question regarding LTP. Currently it's using Yahoo to check backlinks. However, I've been reading that Yahoo is closing Siteexplorer near the end of the year.
Are you planning to use Majestic SEO or similar service to replace it?
You are referring to the fact that Yahoo site explorer is shutting down their API – they may never close the actual Yahoo site explorer. Either way, the answer is YES we do have an additional link source available to switch to immediately if they ever do shut down.
That's what I meant :).
Awsome man. Loved the video and the list of keywords. I researched playground equipment myself just to take a look but you seem to have done a better job with it. Good stuff and i like your process!
Thanks for the video,
Did you find google asking repeatedly for the captcha or not returning data at all? I have experienced that many times and it adds up in lost time. Thanks
No. I only had to enter in the one captcha which I mentioned on the video when I checked the title competition.
It's happening to me too…I'm in trial mode but eager to get full version because I've already fallen in love with it. I know it's google asking the captcha but is there any tip to stop it asking repeatedly? All I have been doing is closing LTP and restarting… thankfully it loads the same campaign but (I'm new to it) I'm afraid when I re-open it and my work will be lost…(?)… ok so far
So maybe that's all we can do if it happens.. close LTP and re-open?
When I installed it first it was really slow but I re-installed it and it now works perfectly (apart from the captcha thing)
Advice which I found here:
In any case, I can't wait to get the full version
You are getting captchas likely because you are searching for "google title competition". If you uncheck that box, I assume that will resolve the issue. If you still want the data, reduce the number of keywords or increase the delay between checks. Finally, file a support ticket at longtailpro.com/support/ if you continue to have issues.
Thanks Spencer yes I had that clicked… the google title competition. Dying of a cold here but still dying to get the pro platinum in a few days… I was even singin a longtail pro song earlier (maybe it's a flu symptom)
No problem :). Hope you get feeling better!
Cheers Spencer .. very useful and I haven't been doing too much wrong though a few extra bits I've picked up … It also confirmed what I suspected .. that I need to get backlinks which I haven't really bothered with .. didn't really want to put my hand in my pocket to do it but think I'll have to … on a budget and if you had to pick only one method .. where would you go ? Matt McClear still ?
thanks again
Yes, I have used Matt Laclear recently. I am also trying out MyArticleNetwork.com and UAW.
As I'm on a tight budget … what do you think to this kind of thing? I'd be interested in your opinion.
Think I'll try it with one site and see what happens .. covers enough links for me .. don't need thousands.
Here's a suggestion for your tool, in terms of usability. Since it takes 5 seconds between it checks competition for each kw, I also find myself doing other tasks while running the tool.
The thing is that sometimes I forget it's running on the background LOL, so it would be useful to have a checkbox that when it's checked, LTP pops up a messager or does a sound announcing that it's ready. It would be like a pomodoro timer.
What do you think?
Another suggestion! In the video you discarded a kw because it had not enough competitors in google adwords. Since LTP doesn't do this checking, I guess you had to run GKT to check this.
The GKT, when you export the keywords list in CSV format, puts a column showing the adwords competitors with a value between 0 and 1. What you could do is include this as a filter so we can be able to search for kw with a competition higher than 0,50 for example, which I think would be a decent value.
Another good idea would be to include trends value, so we can spot if a kw is seasonal.
Hi Spencer,
your is very good work. One question… Your software works for any language and country?
Thanks so much.
Yes, it works in different languages and countries other than english.
Hi Spencer,
Really interesting video and to see how the overall process from the seed keywords to the evaluation if it's good or not.
It'd be visual appealing if the LT Pro has some colors that alert some complicated areas in terms of competition like red or green or similar.
Visited LT Pro and it's only few pages, do you have an idea when it'd be available online?
It will be available soon.
Great video. It's great to see the steps you to through to find your keywords. One question: Is there a reason you are only checking yahoo backlinks? is there a way to check other sites backlinks as well?
Thanks and Go Cougars!
Clint – Yahoo is the most comprehensive link data source available. Google and Bing do not provide link data if that's what you mean. Yahoo is the industry standard.
helpful video….i bought LT pro couple days ago, it is fast and after dealing with the Adobe air crashing in past when using Market Samurai it was nice that LT pro is really stable with Adobe air…1 suggestion would be to hyperlink the url's in the search competition so we can see what the competing sites look like when looking to make final decision to pursue a niche…just saves a little time.
This is actually already part of the software. Just click on the hyperlink for the URL you want to see and it takes you to the website exactly as you stated.
Spencer – thanks for demo! Definitely a helpful walk-through. Much appreciated.
One thing I noticed in this experiment is that the majority of the keywords above are products. In your experience, have you found more success from product-based keywords, or more information-based? Or would you say it's really sixes?
I think you touched on this a while ago – just wanted to get a fresh perspective. Thanks!
Information keywords can be great! Since I didn't pick the seed keywords, I was somewhat limited in showing more information based keywords. Although the first one: auto mechanic salary is a good info based one. Both info and product based keywords can work well.
Great video. This is what people charge money for as a product, but you are doing this for free. Awesome, dude!
Thank you Spencer for doing a detail run through about your process of zeroing on a KW from seed KW!
Do you find the CPC data you got during KW research
are close to the actual Adsense clicks you get
when you build the sites ( I know you get only 68% of the
Ad revenue)?
Any way, good tips to post next to my monoitor while I am running LTP!
I would say its similar. In some cases its a very good indicator in others its not as accurate. However, generally speaking if a keyword shows a higher CPC than another, the one with a higher CPC will indeed pay more on your site.
Now I want to get a copy of Long Tail Pro. lol
Hey, great video!
Straight talk is a cell phone carrier. I think they are sold out of walmart but also operate online.
Ah ha! Makes sense – I suppose I would have figured that out before actually building a site on it. I was in quite a hurry just getting this video made.
Hi Spencer,
Great video, more importantaly coz i own your tool "Long Tail Pro" which is a great software to use and this video has been one great review of the powerfull functionality of the program.
Why did you choose auto mechanic salary? did a quick search an both exact match domains are taken.. the .org and .net and they are ranking in the top spots..
Havent checked the other keywords but would def. not suggest doing it..
Dino – I'm guessing you want to stray people away from this keyword so you can steal it??
Actually I explain in the video why I think its great. Just because the exact match domains are taken is no reason to pass on a keyword. In fact seeing that the .net is ranking #1 with ONLY 32 backlinks is VERY encouraging to go after this market. If an extremely thin adsense site can rank #1 with only 32 links to it; and several of the other 10 sites have an even weaker link profile than that – then surely someone like you or I could build a site that also ranks in the top 10.
If you are passing on keywords like this, then you are missing out on lots of opportunities in my opinion. Hey but then again, that's why we all go with our own judgement based on the data that we see.
Very nice video! Using your software! Awesome!
How do you know there are no advertisers? Just by a low CPC under 1 dollar?
Also, being a newbie here, can you explain the difference between the Y! Links and the Y! Page Links?
Thanks so much!
I should have show this in the video, but I copied and pasted each keyword into google and looked at how many sponsored ads there were. The keyword didn't have any ads.
Also, Y! Links are links to the entire site. Y! Page Links are the number of links to the ranking page.
Maybe you can show some more results in your application to get view about advertisers?
Like Estimated Ad Position and Estimated Daily Clicks are both 0 for "maplestory mechanic" in Adwords Traffic Estimator.
Hi Spencer,
First time posting, but have been reading for a few weeks now. This was a great video and something that really clicked for me. I definitely appreciate you laying everything out for us. I have been doing KW research for about a month now with no real keywords sticking out for me. I'm desperately awaiting your release of LT Pro to cut down on my research time, as I have very little of free time between classes and work. Are you expecting an Oct. 5th release as stated previously on your LT Pro sales page? Can't wait! Thanks again for posting this video and for all the other great posts you have on your site!
Nice video Spencer!
Thanks Ben!!
Hi Spencer,
I agree that that is a good tutorial.
Using L.T. Pro is a new experience for some.
1. Can you give us a Cons and Pros using it with, say, Market Samurai. It will helpful for those who in tight budget but eager to automate the process in finding good keywords.
2. Finding good keyword is a good start. But it's a tiny part of big puzzle in building profitable niche sites. Do you have a plan to create future videos on how to have a good and long term business?
Again thank for the video,
1. The primary difference is the huge time savings that Long Tail Pro offers over Market Samurai. What you saw me do in the video would have taken several hours more with Market Samurai. So how valuable is your time? With Long Tail Pro you can search for multiple keywords at once, automatically search for exact match domains, and pre-filter your data. You cannot do this with Market Samurai.
2. Keyword research is the biggest piece of the puzzle by far though. But yes, I do plan on doing posts and perhaps videos in the future of other aspects of niche websites.
Awesome video on keyword research using LT pro. One last question: When you gonna launch it? I miss the beta launch…
It will be released tomorrow – Oct. 5th! You can get on the pre-launch list right here to be notified: http://www.longtailpro.com/long-tail-pro-software/
hi spencer
i appreciate what you are doing. i never made money online and i am thinking about asking one of my relatives outside of my country to registor a domain name so that i can realy start making money! so i am very serious about it!!! the reason i cant registor a domain name is because i am poor and even my country doesnt allow credit cards to be spent online or nowhere out of the country. i am from africa…enough about me!
but i want to remind you here that you chose keywords above like swing sets for kids and auto mechanic salary
i checked them and i saw a .com for both keywords and they even have built the websites! when did they registor the domain ? it was like a month before this post! so i think you chose the wrong keywords because they are already saturated! it is not after this post that they were made. they were built a month before this post….so i think if u were to registor .net version of these u will still be subjected to competing webstes which greatly reduce ur reveneu
bye thanks
Semir – Getting an exact match domain is preferred, but certainly not required. I have always stated that if the top 10 competitors are weak enough (as I showed was the case with the 2 keywords you mentioned) then even if you don't have an exact match domain you can still make plenty of money. My highest earning site ranks #1 in google and is not an exact match domain.
Hmmm, I like more brandable domains because this is where Google is heading, think long term not just for tomorrow.
Thanks so much for posting this video Spencer! It's so helpful to have you narrating your thought processes as you analyse the data to give us an idea of how to interpret the information that comes up around the key words – especially regarding what is "beatable" when it comes to the number of backlinks the competitor sites have. 2 questions:
1 – You mention that you look for pages with less than 10 backlinks, just as a reference point, how many backlinks are generally achievable by doing it through a dedicated VA/provider or MyArticleNetwork or UAW? (it would just help to know if there are sites with more than 10 backlinks but still less than what we can produce)
2 – While we are waiting for Long Tail Pro to be available, are there any other free tools out there that we can use to analyse competitor site backlinks? I have got SEO Quote but often get "error" for the links to the domain and page. I also tried Blekko, but its a little time consuming and not that easy to navigate.
Thanks so much for your invaluable insights!
1. You can certainly beat sites with more than 10 backlinks to the page – this is just a quick sort of litmus test. An article submitted to UAW will probably get you anywhere from 20 to 50 indexed backlinks. So, this is not difficult to achieve.
2. You can use SEO for Firefox a free plugin by Aaron Wall at Seobook.com.
Glad you liked the video!
Thank for your video that I learn more from you.
Great information thank you Spencer. Would you use both adsense and links to the physical products mentioned at say amazon on your website or just one of these.
Yes, you can use both. Probably a good idea.
Thanks Spencer for a very good video.
A couple of questions.
1. On the keywords you selected. Would the steps in article writing consist of 8-10 articles with one utilizing the exact keyword selection and the others utilizing cousin keywords?
2. Two of the keywords are similar in composition. led flood lights and led desk lamp.
Utilizing your concept of article writing, you would use the keyword "led flood lights" in one article for the LED Flood Lights niche site. Could you then use "led desk lamp" as one of the cousin keyword articles?
The second part of that question is IF you could use the cousin article concept ie "led desk lamp" is it possible to use that same article as the primary exact key word article for the niche site LED Desk Lamp?
Hi Spencer,
Great video! I bought the Beta of LT Pro. VERY GOOD!!
Side note: what's your policy on replying? I left a couple of questions on posts related to selecting hosting under the Hub section of your site. No reply. It was only a couple of days ago though.
Also, after making my comment/reply to a post it appeared to be auto-posted but now they don't seem to be there any more. Maybe close comments on posts if you have no intention of following up.
Suggestion: Perhaps add the plug-in for users to subscribe to posts to be notified automatically of updates to the post. Much easier to keep engaged.
Best wishes on the launch!
Hello Spencer,
LTP, the best keyword search tool,period.
You mentioned on the video about a keyword (without advertisers), how many sponsored ads showing on google are good enough to you a make a site from a keyword???
I found a great keyword with 2 sponsored ads on google first page(not too many, I'd say),from the second page is not showing sponsored ads, I made a site from this keyword, but inside my site, there are loads of different ads from adsense. Could you share your thoughts about it?
Thanks for this amazing software my friend.
1. The good or maybe better way to look at is the advertisers' bars inside your Keyword Tool instead. Seeking how many advertisers bid for one keyword or two on Google pages is not recommended. The reason is that the bidders use geotargeting feature. First half bar (aka 5/10) is enough sign that the keyword is good. Full (10/10) is ideal.
2. As the norm Google displays at least 3 (or 4) adsense inside our post/page unless you set it up other way. It still displays them even there are less advertisers who bid for the right keywords. That's the reason why you sometime got less revenue because you have un-targeted bidders. Providing a keyword with enough advertisers (7/10) will guarantee that you would have targeted bidders. Hence more revenue.
Great video Spencer, thanks! I bought the beta of LTP and it does indeed ROCK!! It was nice seeing exactly how you use it, which I believe you had explained elsewhere. I did pick up a tip or two anyway! Thanks!
Hi Spencer,
You said each niche website will contain 5-10 posts in the beginning, mwanwhile you will prepare orginal article (say 3 articles) for ezine, and you will need 8-13 article for each niche website, each article cost you $8, and you have to spend some on building back links, is that mean you would spend over $100 for each website?
If you target keywords with 2k searches and go even when you can't be #1 but just first page, you will often get few % of that traffic. Especially if not in the top 5.
So let's say you get 5%, which is quite realistic for the 5 to 10th spot nowadays. (i know you've checked the latest slingshot research about that)
That's 100 hits per month, if 10% of those click that's just 10 clicks which can rarely be more than $10, most of the time will be about $5 bucks per month. Let's say the long tail traffic will double that, so you will be make $10 to $20 (optimistic) per month.
At least that's my personal experience, i have bunch of sites like this.
So isn't 2k searches per month too low to be worth it nowadays?
Hey Spencer, I have yet to use UAW myself but I use a FIVERR gig for it pretty often. I can see it working since Im constantly getting pingback notifications to my blogs. My question is how long does it normally take for Google to register those backlinks to your site? It looks like indexing 2.0 links linking to your site or linking to your site from another doesnt take long at all but updating your SERPS to reflect those new links is what takes awhile.
After a bunch of research and reading today, I finally took the plunge into the adsense niche pool. The first item I purchased is this tool. I researched the keyword that was to be my first niche site. Turns out I was doing the research incorrect and what I thought was going to be a great keyword was really only a keyword that was going to get ~300 local searches. So this Spencer you've already saved me money! Plus whatever I would have lost had I not gone with the purchase. Excited to get started!
Hi Spencer, Have you ever thought about check Seo Competition backlinks by Majestic SEO: Site Explorer?
hey spencer- loving the long tail pro so far. I noticed in your video there isn't an "advertiser competition". What does this mean in the long tail pro? thanks
Billy – This feature was just added today! Unfortunately, looks like you got a copy before I updated the user manual. However, I made a blog post on the Long Tail Pro blog that explains everything you will need right here: http://www.longtailpro.com/2011/advertiser-competition-and-other-updates-to-long-tail-pro-version-1-1-0/
Your long tail pro tool looks interesting, I am saving up for this. I just have a question, dont you get banned by google when you do keyword research like this? I remember getting banned when I was using micro niche finder before..
Thanks Spencer,
I have had problems picking the right keywords to target – and not judging the strength of competition very good.
Your video helped and I also love longtail pro…It's on my wish list.
If you target keywords with 2k searches and go even when you can't be #1 but just first page, you will often get few % of that traffic. Especially if not in the top 5.
So let's say you get 5%, which is quite realistic for the 5 to 10th spot nowadays. (i know you've checked the latest slingshot research about that)
That's 100 hits per month, if 10% of those click that's just 10 clicks which can rarely be more than $10, most of the time will be about $5 bucks per month. Let's say the long tail traffic will double that, so you will be make $10 to $20 (optimistic) per month.
At least that's my personal experience, i have bunch of sites like this.
So isn't 2k searches per month too low to be worth it nowadays?
Well, I still think its okay to go after these terms. A #1 spot will get up to 42% of the search engine traffic (according to outside studies). Also, you will get search engine traffic from MANY more keywords than just the one you are targeting – perhaps even most of your traffic will come from other terms. So I still think its okay to go after these keywords.
Hey Spencer,
thanks for extermly usefull post & video. I've got a querstion.
Why do you avoid brand names in keywords for niche sites?
I'm not talking about Pepsi or Toyota, there are much smaller brands with lower competition. Let's say "military gore tex jacket" (just an example, I did't analyze this keyword deeply) – it have pretty low competition and 1600 searchers. Why not to use it for niche site?
Michael – I have done a few branded domains, but try to avoid if possible. The reason is because companies very often send out cease and desist letters if they find your site using their brand name. They essentially shut down your site. So, its a big risk that's just better to avoid if possible.
With the exception of "auto mechanic salary", it looks like all the keywords you chose are physical product specific keywords where the searcher is probably looking for e-comm sites and large retailers for those products.
Considering you build content sites monetized by Adsense and don't sell physical products, wouldn't that be a serious post panda ranking hindrance? Or do you not worry too much about the intent of the searcher for the keywords you target?
I haven't entered any product specific niches with Adsense sites lately myself, so I'm just curious how well you're doing in terms of ranking for product keywords?
Is that a ranking hindrance? I do worry about the intent of the searcher – lots (most?) of my sites do not focus on physical products. auto mechanic salary is probably the best example of what kind of keyword my typical sites target.
Very new to this so reading comments left by others and your replies is helping a bit.
I can see that searching 5 KWs at once is an advantage but am still learning how to make sense of the findings.
With so many people in this business the goal posts must move constantly meaning constant attention is needed for each website..Yes?
Not necessarily each site. I have sites that I haven't touched for over 2 years that still earn money consistently. But constant attention is needed to either create new sites or find different keywords.
Hey Spencer-
I loved the video and bought LTPro after watching. One question – I was following along and doing the step-by-step with my keyword. When I checked the Competitor Analysis, I do not have the Y! link or Y! backink to page columns. Do I have to change my settings to get that? Obviously that's critical info if I'm trying to decide to go after the keyword or not.
SEOmoz Links are now used.
Hi Spencer, if I purchase LTPro + Platinum tool, should I also buy Moz OpenSiteExplorer pro membership to make LTPro works fine and can calculate KC? or just with free membership, LTPro + Platinum can work fine and calculate KC?
I ask this because Moz pro membership is expensive enough for me..
Thank u..
You don't need to pay for anything on Moz. You just need a FREE user account. That's it.
ok Spencer.. thanks..

Hoax Museum Blog Posts From

Body Modification Hoaxes
Posted by The Curator on Fri Sep 12, 2003
Dr. Zizlesse offers a revolutionary alternative for overweight women who can't lose those extra pounds: nipple surgery. I'll let you discover on your own why nipple surgery can solve women's weight problems, but I have to say that there's definitely a strange, twisted logic to what he suggests. I'm also sure it's a hoax. Note that near the bottom of the intro page Dr. Zizlesse asks 'Are you gullible?' (may not be safe for work because of the background image, though it took me ages before I actually noticed what was in the background). This next site also involves strange forms of body modification. At Adding and Subtracting we meet two identical twins, Ryan and Dave,…

Munchkin Hoax

Museum of Cryptozoology

Buck Wolf reports that Loren Coleman has opened a Museum of Cryptozoology in his home. Included is a Feejee Mermaid. Of course, it can't be THE Feejee Mermaid displayed by Barnum. No one knows what happened to it (though some claim that the mermaid now owned by Harvard University is the authentic one).

Fraud in Other Words
Posted by The Curator on Sat Sep 06, 2003
I've mentioned Larry Adams's book before, Fraud in Other Words, but I was reading through it again tonight and thought it deserved another mention. The book is an exploration of the language of fraud. Adams has collected together all the jargon and terminology of the culture of fraud, and as you flip through the book you come across one devious scam and ploy after another. For instance, I've always thought it was annoying how those subscription cards fall out of magazines when I'm reading them. I never realized that the cards are designed to fall out. They're called 'Drop Outs.' According to Adams: If the recipient has to bend over and pick up a card, they are more…

Crawford County police were alarmed when they discovered leg bones sticking out of a pair of work boots that were standing on the bank of Lake Shepherd Springs in Arkansas.

Since 2001, Island Mist Tanning's well-maintained booths and beds have helped customers bronze in a relaxed environment. Licensed-and-certified technicians are on hand to help out with tanning options, which include standup booths, beds, and manually applied UV-free airbrush tans. The tanning salon also sells a variety of products from brands such as Supre and Devoted Creations.
At MelliSpa, aesthetician Paula Bartorelli nourishes complexions naturally. Drawing from a diverse background in advanced clinical skin care treatments and natural healing, her facials use high-quality GlyMed Plus and Prima Fleur Botanicals products. Her services often change with the seasons?for instance, a pumpkin-enzyme peel in the fall?but she also performs classic facials customized for aging, acneic, and dry skin.
Just because the stylists at D.C. take hair very seriously doesn't mean they have to take themselves seriously. On the salon's front door is a black-and-white photo of Christopher Walken, below which reads "We Accept Walkens." Good-natured riffs such as these help clients feel at home as they seek out a haircut to fit their unique, and often quirky, personalities. D.C. CreationZ is also a proud Matrix concept salon, specializing in color techniques trending here and overseas.
Over the last 10 years, Skin Essentials Med Spa & Hair Salon owner Kelly Davis has prettified more than 1,000 faces with the SofTap permanent-makeup technique. She sidesteps the racket and pain of traditional tattoo-machine methods to gently apply the pigment with a hand tool, giving her absolute control to craft a subtle lip shape or a seductively arched brow. Guests can find similar attention to detail in the spa's repertoire of other beautifying services, from simple mani-pedis to advanced exfoliation peels that obscure signs of aging. Injections of Botox or Restylane keep skin surfaces as smooth as a pancake, and full-body scrubs and masks treat the whole physique to ensure that even your Achilles' heel embodies a beauty that belies its vulnerability.
Rose Thompson wants to make the world a more beautiful place. With the help of her staff at Rose Grows Hair Salon, she accomplishes this goal from the top down. The hair mavens remake clients' coifs with coloring, braiding, and relaxing treatments, and further beautify locks by adding weaves and extensions. Rose pours her decades of experience in both styling and teaching into every service, overseeing the staff stylists of her South Shore salon as they trim and shape new hairstyles or apply flawless coats of makeup.
At Carriage House Salon & Spa, stylists beautify clients' hair with haircuts and highlights and massage therapists ease aches with soothing heated stones. Aestheticians perform lavish spa manicures, moisturizing cuticles and finishing nails with OPI lacquers.

Jim Souhan analyzes the local sports scene and advises you to never take his betting advice. He likes old guitars and old music, never eats press box hot dogs, and can be heard on 1500ESPN at 2:05 p.m. weekdays, and Sundays from 10 a.m.-noon.
Find him on Twitter
Watford _ The Vikings' first full-fledged press conference in London offered some startling news: Quarterback Christian Ponder injured his ribs against the Browns on Sunday and is not certain to play against the Steelers.
Ponder spoke at the team hotel before Vikings' practice. He said he was able to throw the ball during the team's walk-through, but coach Leslie Frazier said he needed to evaluate Ponder during practice and would make a decision by Friday afternoon.
Matt Cassel would start if Ponder was unable to play.
Ponder said he injured his ribs on a play early in the Browns game. He was able to finish the game.
-Vikings GM Rick Spielman wouldn't comment on whether he has reached out to former Vikings cornerback Antoine Winfield. Safety Jamarca Sanford and cornerbacks Chris Cook and A.J. Jefferson will not practice today because of injuries.
Spielman said his staff in MInnesota is looking for roster depth but wouldn't comment specifically on Winfield. Spielman usually doesn't speak publicly during the season but made an exception to meet with the London and U.S. press covering his team's practice at the team hotel on Wednesday. Owner Mark Wilf, Frazier, Ponder and Adrian Peterson also spoke.
-Not much news came out of the Peterson press conference, but one Brit did ask whether he would consider expanding his acting career, perhaps to become the next James Bond.
``I'll have to take acting lessons,'' Peterson said with a smile.
I'll be on 1500ESPN at noon with Judd&Dubay. You can follow me on Twitter at @Souhanstrib. Mark Craig, Chip Scoggins, photojournalist Carlos Gonzalez and myself are covering the Vikings all week in London. Please check for updates, features, videos, photos and posts all week on Startribune.com. And please buy the paper! It's cheap and filled with lots of great stuff!

Harry S, Harry S—the S stands for S and his wife's name was Bess! There's a cheer for the Trumans.
Elizabeth "Bess" Wallace was born in Missouri in 1885 and helped manage the household for her mother after her father's suicide. Bess met future hubby Harry in the fifth grade. CUTE! (Sorry for saying hubby.) Her mom was not a fan of Harry's because he was of "humble origins"—is this sounding like a movie yet, or what? Despite (or because of?) her mom's disapproval, Bess married Harry after he returned from serving in World War I and they had one daughter in 1924.
Although he was criticized for doing so, Harry hired Bess to work as an office clerk when he became Senator. Harry maintained that Bess was genuinely good at her work.
Bess was reluctant to be the wife even of a Vice President—so spending 8 years as First Lady to POTUS #33 was not her favorite. She canceled her first ever press conference (in which Eleanor Roosevelt was going to introduce her) and never scheduled another. Her true personality wasn't glimpsed till later. She voluntarily signed a food rationing pledge to serve as a model for the rest of America during the war. When the White House was found to be structurally unsound, she maintained it should be renovated rather than building a new structure. During its renovation, she and Harry lived at the Lee-Blair House, which came under literal fire during an assassination attempt on the president.
No one was happier than Bess when Harry retired from politics. She survived breast cancer in the 1950s and died at age 97 in 1982: the longest lived of all the FLOTII.
Mamie Eisenhower
Mamie "not a nickname" Doud married Ike "it's a nickname" Eisenhower when she was only 19 years old. But where did she come from? Iowa, of course! Her family was English on her father's side and Swedish on her mother's side, but she grew up a Midwestern girl.
Thanks to Ike's military career, Mamie and her hubs-a-doo lived in 33 different homes. (Sorry for saying hubs-a-doo.) I'm sure none of them were quite like the home they got when Ike became POTUS #34. HINT: It was big! And it was white! And it had a really obvious name!
Ike was not the healthiest puppy during his time as president, suffering both a heart attack and stroke in office. Guess who took over management of his schedule and correspondence? MAME THE DAME.
Mamie's two major causes were fundraising for the American Heart Association and a retirement community for Army widows. But she was a land of contrasts when it came to views on women. On the one hand, she is said to have opposed women's lib, believing a married woman's place was in the home, and that women were superior to men in managing the household and banking. On the other hand, the only Democrat she ever supported was her friend Ellen Harris because "we women have to have a voice in things."
One thing's for damn sure: Mamie popularized the hell out of pink in the early 1960s—as well as a short haircut with bangs.
When Ike's health failed again less than 10 years after leaving office, Mamie moved into Walter Reed Army Hospital to be with him in his last days. She outlived him by another ten years.
P.S., Mamie Eisenhower was the first First Lady to be kissed in public after the inauguration, setting a smooch precedent for all those presidential couples that followed. (You're welcome, John and Jackie through Barack and Michelle.)

ancestries that were not black. The comparable figures were 8 percent for Asians and 9 percent for Hispanics.
Fertility is the starting point of any demographic projection model. Higher fertility rates will make the future population larger, and subgroups with higher than average fertility will grow relative to others.
Since 1971, the Census Bureau has published fertility estimates in a special supplement to the Current Population Survey (CPS) in June of each year. The survey asks women several fertility questions, including how many children they have ever borne and whether they have had a child within the past year. Starting in 1994, the CPS has also asked about the nativity of the respondent and the parents of the respondent. Using the CPS nativity data, we tabulated the population for the foreign-born (first generation), sons and daughters of the foreign-born (second generation), and native-born of native-born parents (third and later generations).9
There is apparently some underreporting of births in the CPS, when compared with vital statistics for registered number of births. Births are registered for a calendar year, whereas CPS data on reported births are from July of the preceding year to June of the survey year. We tabulated the number of births from vital statistics and the CPS by race/ethnicity, along with the adjustment factors to scale CPS data to the known level of births by race of mother.10
Age-specific fertility rates for the four major racial/ethnic groups were estimated using recent fertility data from the June 1994 CPS and the tabulations for 1994 of the National Center for Health Statistics (NCHS). Separate estimates were made for the first, second, and third and later immigrant generations (fertility levels for the third and fourth and later generations were assumed to be the same). Overall, the following total fertility rates were assumed for the starting period of 1995 to 2000:1.81 for the white population, 2.33 for Asians, 2.34 for blacks, and 2.63 for Hispanics. As the generational composition shifts, the pro-
The CPS has two important limitations for fertility estimates: undercoverage of the population and underreporting of births. The first results from omitted households and from missing persons within sample households. Although the CPS has lower rates of undercoverage than do other large federal household surveys, its undercoverage is about 8 percent lower than that of the 1990 census (Shapiro et al., 1993). Undercoverage rates vary with age, sex, and race. For some groups, such as black males aged 20 to 29, the rate is estimated to be as high as 34 percent compared with that of the 1990 census. Although the CPS is adjusted for undercoverage, the extent to which the weighting procedure corrects for fertility reporting bias due to undercoverage is unknown.
Fertility estimates derived from the CPS are subject to sampling variability. To provide a range of the variability, we calculated standard errors for some of the fertility estimates. For the native-born white population, we calculated that the total fertility estimate of 1.81 has a standard error of ± 0.04.

1969 Chevy Camaro
Deb McGilton loved riding along with her husband, Tim, at autocross and track events, but when he asked one day if she was having a good time, she replied, "Yes, but I'd be having more fun if I had my own."
That comment made an impression with Tim, and he began looking around for possible candidates without letting on what he was up to. When this 1969 Camaro showed up for sale, Tim showed it to Deb, just to test the waters. Deb casually stated that she'd love to have it. The subject was dropped for a while thereafter until Tim called Deb one day while she was away on business and dropped the bombshell that he was going to sell two of his Camaros. Surprised, she asked, "Why?" "To buy that car for you," he replied.
The '69 was pretty much already done with a full DSE suspension and subframe and QuadraLink in the rear, but it was more of a pretty street car than a racer and it required some work to the brakes and a power steering cooler to be ready. And unfortunately, the engine wasn't quite ready for sustained high-rpm use, and after one of the first events, Deb found metal in the oil, so the engine had to be pulled and gone through.
Now the Camaro is in battle-ready shape, and it's Deb who's getting herself more and more tailored to the track. She had little autocross background, and MCOTY was only the second time she has ever drag raced, but she's now getting much more serious with it. Along with her husband's advice, she's been getting tutelage from experienced racers like DSE's Kyle Tucker and fellow 2013 MCOTY competitor Danny Popp. She's an apt pupil and learning quite quickly since she and the Camaro sit quite well against a lot of experienced drivers at MCOTY.
Deb said it's a toss-up as to whether she likes autocross or road course better, but she plans to give herself plenty of chances to make up her mind by trying to hit as many events as possible. "Tim once joked, 'You know, you could have a really nice diamond for what that car cost.'" Deb told him, "That's OK, I'm having more fun with the car."

One of the older gas gathering and processing firms serving South Texas is moving into a new line of business – handling growing volumes of crude oil and condensate coming out of the Eagle Ford.
James E. Wade , president and chief operating officer at Copano Energy LLC , reminded the midstream track at the DUG Eagle Ford conference that the firm dates to 1992 – well before the Eagle Ford became a hot play – when founder John Eckel Jr. purchased a pipeline to move his production from Copano Bay on the Texas Gulf Coast to market.
That origin has created "a producer-focused, producer-friendly company with win-win solutions for its customers," Wade said. But the company's most rapid growth has come recently, thanks to the Eagle Ford.
"You've heard why the Eagle Ford is one of the best plays in North America, and that's why Copano decided to spend over $1 billion by the middle of next year on organic growth projects in this play," he told conference attendees.
"We focused on the condensate window of the shale where our assets were," Wade added. "We were fortunate to be a first mover in this play."
Its existing gathering systems fed into Kinder Morgan 's 30-inch Laredo-to-Katy pipeline that delivered gas to Copano's Houston Central Complex in Colorado County, Texas. But where would all the new natural gas liquids (NGLs) go?
"When we got started, we like everybody else, looked to Mount Belvieu for the solution. But Houston got in the way," Wade said with a chuckle.
The cost-competitive answer proved to be processing gas at Copano's own facility. Copano already has a 200 million cubic feet per day (MMcfd) cryogenic plant and a 500 MMcfd lean-oil plant. Now it it's adding a 400 MMcfd cryogenic plant, expected to go online in the first quarter of next year. Also, permitting has started on a second 400 MMcfd unit, expected to be completed in the middle of 2014. They're matched with a 44,000 barrel-per-day (b/d) fractionator at the complex, plus the firm will have access to a new 75,000 b/d fractionator Energy Transfer Partners LP will complete by the end of first-quarter 2013.
But Copano's biggest project is the 100,000 b/d Double Eagle Gathering System. It's working with Magellan Midstream Partners LP to move crude and chemical-grade condensate to Magellan's terminal on Nueces Bay at Corpus Christi, Texas. The terminal also

Ex-Hulu CEO Raises Funding From Benchmark and Bezos for Startup
Former Hulu CEO Jason Kilar and former CTO Richard Tom announced their new startup, Vessel, which would be in the online video space.
Former Hulu CEO Jason Kilar and former CTO Richard Tom announced their new startup, Vessel, which would be in the online video space.
It seems that Hulu has been unable to find a permanent chief executive in the two-and-a-half months since CEO Jason Kilar announced his plans to leave the video-streaming company. Andy Forssell, Hulu's senior vice president of content, has been named acting CEO two weeks ahead of Kilar's scheduled departure.
Founding Hulu CEO Jason Kilar and CTO Rich Tom have decided to leave the video-streaming company by the end of the first quarter. In an e-mail to staffers, which was later reposted to Hulu's corporate blog, Kilar said he is coordinating with Hulu's board of directors "to ensure there is ample runway to manage this transition" and that his decision "has been one of the toughest [he's] ever made." Reports that Kilar planned to leave Hulu have been circulating for some time.
Hulu CEO Jason Kilar may be leaving the company as early as September, according to a leaked memo dated in July. The memo, which was obtained by Variety, outlines the company's future plans in three pages of bullet points. The top of these reads, "Outline transition plan for new CEO. Discuss potential candidates and process." As Variety notes, the bullets don't definitely mean that Kilar is scheduled to exit the company -- it could be a contingency plan.
More than 2 million people are now paying for Hulu's premium content subscription service Hulu Plus, CEO Jason Kilar revealed on stage at an Ad Age conference in Manhattan on Tuesday morning. That means the Netflix competitor has managed to nearly double its subscriber base in just seven months. Back in September, the company announced it had one million Hulu Plus subscribers. Hulu Plus gives customers access to a range of TV shows and films for $7.99 per month, and is a direct competitor to Netflix.
Just how important is original and exclusive content to Hulu? That was the question AllThingsD's Peter Kafka posed to Hulu CEO Jason Kilar on stage at AllThingsD's media conference in Laguna Nigel, Calif., Tuesday morning. The company, a joint venture between NBCUniversal, Fox Entertainment and Disney, scaled investments in exclusive content and original series in 2011.
Amid continued rumors that Hulu is considering a sale to Google, Yahoo or Microsoft, Hulu CEO Jason Kilar has revealed some eye-opening second-quarter statistics. The company, it seems, has never looked healthier. Hulu Plus, Hulu's premium all-you-can-eat video offering, is fast-approaching 1 million subscribers; it currently has upward of 875,000 paid subscribers and will pass the milestone before the end of the summer, Kilar says in a blog post.
Hulu will hit $500 million in advertising and subscription revenues this year, nearly doubling last year's take, CEO Jason Kilar said Monday. Kilar, who spoke at the Internet Advertising Bureau's 2011 Annual Leadership Meeting in Palm Springs, California, said the site now claims 627 advertisers and 250 content partners, compared with only two advertisers when Hulu launched three years ago, according a report in Adweek.
In an interesting move for the global online and entertainment markets, Hulu could soon move to expand internationally. Citing "an 'unmet need' for online television service in markets around the world," Hulu CEO Jason Kilar told The Wall Street Journal his company would even be willing to take on additional investors to accelerate its expansion. By most accounts, the move would be a logical one. Hulu is among the leading providers of premium video content online.
Hulu has had quite the record-breaking year, growing in both popularity and wealth of content since its launch back in March of 2008. Today, CEO Jason Kilar posted the online entertainment site's year-end stats on the company's blog, painting a rather sweeping portrait of Hulu's epic 2009. Perhaps one of the most impressive stats noted by Kilar is that Hulu has doubled its content library since this time last year, an increase that totals up to 14,000 hours of entertainment.

We're on Rachael Ray!
Hey, Rachael Ray.
(Source: quote-book)
Today I made up a recipe
…Because I really wanted to use mint from our farm in some cookies. And I'll potentially sell them at the market. And I'll potentially drop some off for my boys.
It went something like this:
-1 cup sugar
-1 cup mint leaves
-2.5 cups AP Flour
-1 teaspoon baking powder
-1/3 cup unsweetened cocoa
- 1 tsp salt
-8 ounces butter
-4 ounces cream cheese
- 1 egg
I threw some of the sugar in a food processor with the mint to get it really finely chopped. Beat the butter and cream cheese together, added the additional sugar, then the egg, followed by the mint/sugar mixture and finally the dry ingredients. Freeze for about an hour, and then bake for about 15 minutes at 350.
I don't think you'll be disappointed :)

Both my male and female derbyan have very good vocabularies. They are now incubating three possibly going on four eggs. One of the derbyans actually asked if I were alright when I tripped in the yard. I had to look to see who was saying it as it was so clear. I had also the misfortune of losing my beloved Wally as a result of a hurricane threat around October/December 2007 here in Florida. He was in the house and had escaped the cage he had been placed in temporarily and flew over my head and out the back door when someone went to go outside.

I bought a pair of Derbyans in 1992, who have had many babies. I have never tried to "tame" the pair, but they have become very calm with me over the years. I kept some of their babies and they all are wonderfully tame. They have the most beautiful voices you will ever hear! They love to sing and laugh, play with each other, chase each other around - good exercise,and have fun. They like sitting on my shoulder or head. They are very calm and very gentle birds, but can startle easily. Most say/sing "beautiful Derbyan Parakeet birdie", and "Way up in the sky little birds fly", "pipe down", "it's okay, you're okay", "owie, owie" and many other words and phrases and each other's names. They are my very favorite species of parrot!

I have had Asia since the was a five week old little bald baby. She is now 8 and one of the most calm, loving and sociable birds that I have met. She doesn't talk (although she can) however I prefer my birds to be more bird-like than human like and does affection on her own terms only. She is strong and very willful but never nasty. She is my first Derbyan and I was nervous before I got her however I could never have imagined what wonderful birds they are.

We got our derbyan when he was 9mo old. He turned two in May and is really a delight. He is quite a talker, but we don't have much time to teach him tricks. When we are home from work, he thinks we should be in the same room or he really let's us know with his loud squawking. If he thinks we are mad at him and tell him NO, he tells us "I love papa,papa, dad n' dad and BARNEY!!! Works every time, lol.

The Pomegranate, Blackcurrant, and Peppermint flavor of In/Fusion is a USDA Organic herbal tea. The "tea" is a blend of blackcurrant leaf and peppermint, which creates a very pleasant tasting and medium-bodied base for the drink. From there, the company has added grape must, blackcurrant juice, and pomegranate juice, which give the product a light note of tart fruit flavor. It pairs quite nicely with the mint, which hits you again at the finish and lingers slightly. All in all, we're very impressed with this formulation -- and the fact that it has no added sweeteners or preservatives doesn't hurt either. Packaging is an 11.1 oz. Tetra Pak carton with a DreamCap (which improves the flow of the liquid from the carton). It has an illustrated design with a pink backdrop, which is certainly a unique approach. However, we do think that the name of the flavor needs to be more succinct and have more visual emphasis. As it stands right now, we think it requires more effort to figure out than competing products. Overall, we like the uniqueness of the approach and the execution of the flavor, but the messaging on the package could stand to be improved.
