Slow The F@#* Down
Boy, if I had a nickel for every time my dad has said this to me. It is in my DNA to get in hurry with anything. I think some of you can relate. Since the release of the new BANS guide a few people have emailed me to look at their new sites. They all lacked quality and quantity content, were not laid out properly and were very broad in niche focus. Great sites are not built in a day and usually not even in a week. If you are writing your own content, this will surely eat up most of the time in itself. You need to have a clear, exact, calculated focus on what the ENTIRE site will look like, before the first page is even built. Take your time and plan the whole thing out, meta tags included. I still to this day have to watch myself as well in niche site building, if I get an idea in my head, I want the finished product yesterday. The reward is much greater if you fully understand what you are doing and exactly how you are going to accomplish it. So keep this in mind and "Slow The F@#* Down"! You will build better sites and be rewarded for it in the long run.

Amen!
Good post, and so true.
BTW- what do you think about the $5 per page guideline the guide mentions for a niche site?
@Jake I have never used that as a metric myself. I have some sites that achieve that and then some and others that do not. Not saying it is a bad metric mind you, but I measure my sites in other fashions.

You said it Dave
I get like an excited three year old when the idea gets me.
So much effort and usually wasted.
