Either way, it's not their fault, it's marketing. Igor You can keep believing that, or
you can face the facts that say that it
either wasn’t targeted or it did not generate

I tend to believe that most people want things given to them on a silver platter and they don't want to work hard at it. Therefore, my article required the end user to follow instructions and put in a certain amount of work to achieve their goal. However, some niches are pretty much the same today as they were ten years ago. This makes it hard to present something that is unique and fresh. I tend to believe that it is the lack of interest and/or the lack of desire to to work for it. .-= Spunky Jones´s last blog ..<a href="http://www.spunkyjones.com/marketing-strategy/increase-web-traffic/" rel="nofollow">Six simple methods to increase website traffic</a> =-.

Looking forward to your participation on KnewThis @Heather Thank you for your comment. KnewThis should serve as a great way for you to drive traffic from a multitude of keywords back to your niche blogs. Regarding your question about comparing Mahalo and KnewThis, I would say they are pretty different in the way they operate. I would call Mahalo the Q&A version of Wikipedia as opposed to KnewThis, which is a Q&A version of EzineArticles. On Mahalo, the focus is on providing the most comprehensive answer so that every question on earth is crowdsourced with the most elaborate answer. The focus of KnewThis is not that - here, it is for the small time webmasters to get their fair share of limelight - by asking questions that will suit your niche and answering them enough to incite interest from the visitor to click through and read your blog. It is more of a gateway (like EzineArticles) than the destination (like Wikipedia). Hope that answers your question. Please let me know if you have more queries and looking forward to your participation Anand Srinivasan KnewThis.com @Ileane and @Mike

I too came here via the recommendation of Karen at Blazing Minds. I'm so glad I did! I'm not sure if this technique will work for me since I mainly provide questions on my blog rather than answers, so I wouldn't be able to provide links - but I do plan on starting some niche blogs in the future & will keep KnewThis in mind. One question: Have you tried Mahalo, and if so how would you compare it to KnewThis? (Perhaps another post lol) Anyway, thanks. I love it when people like you share their lessons so we don't have to waste our time trying out the same stuff.

writing an article is a pain in the ass.

I love Ezine Articles, but then again I'm not spending 4-5 hours on an article. That's way too long and I definitely see how that's not profitable. I spend more like 15-30 minutes.
