30DC Day 05 Introduction 

Writing Unique Articles

Day 05 - There are 2 main steps today. One is to begin creating unique content for your website using yet another Market Samurai module, and the other step is to actually buy your domain name and hosting for your micro-niche.

Ben explains the need for unique content that is both appealing to the search engines as well as visitors to the site, and how the Find Content module in Market Samurai can find sources that meet those criteria. Ben then demonstrates how to use the Find Content module to find popular or authoritative reference material to use as a source to create your own specifically optimized content for the keyword you want to rank for.

Caro provides some sensible guidelines on the ethical use of source material, and gives overview on how to take source content from the Find Content module to create your own unique articles.

Guru Bob introduces the next stage of targeting your micro-niche, which is getting yourself a domain name. Think of the domain name as an asset, or a house, owning and hosting your domain means that you have control over it at all times. GuruBob explains ways to ensure that the domain you register has your theme keyword in it. There are a few methods to consider, like the priority preference of .com, .net, .org, and using hyphens or prefixes and suffixes. Using Domains Bot, you can search for name alternatives find.

After researching the available domains containing your theme keyword, Nez takes you the process of registering the domain name and setting up a hosting account using Hostgator.

Objectives For The Day - 1. After using the Find Content module in Market Samurai to source content (for both theme and category keywords), you should begin writing unique articles of around 300 - 400 words, with the goal of creating between 7 to 10 articles over the next week.

2. After using the Domains Bot site to identify an appropriate domain containing your theme keyword, you will have registered the domain and created a hosting account with HostGator.

Handy Tip - Writing unique content is crucial as Google will see the content for what it is one way or another. To just 'cut and paste' from sources is not ethical, and will also end up hurting your chances of having your sites rank well and be successful.
