I've recently been reading some stuff on how writing small reports can be very profitable but as usual I am left wondering how I can take a great idea (writing small reports) and make it real or practical with respect to how to market it.
The idea of a small report that I have been toying with is How to Live Cheaply in San Diego or some such.
I have not always had a lot of money in my life and since coming to San Diego I have been able to live very cheaply. Now I can't take all the credit for this. As a comitted Christian I believe God opened doors for me that might not have opened otherwise but still...the lessons I have been learning about how to live cheaply in San Diego might be of general interest to many.
For example for a long time I lived in a really nice fifth wheel trailer that I only paid $200 a month to rent. Presently I am living in a nice home in one of the richest towns sorrounding San Diego without paying any money at all! I am trading web development work for the rent of $600 a month. At my usual rate of $25 per hour. That works out to only 24 hours of work per month.
I have my own large bedroom, my own huge bathroom, a pool in the backyard...and live in a place that few could afford to even rent at.
My landlord is great and it's just me and him and his dog in a huge ranch style home where his bedroom is on one end of the house and I am on the other end.
When I first arrived in San Diego I rented a room cheaply in a foreclosed property.
I could go on but suffice it to say that I could write up a really good report on using strategies I have used to help me live very, very cheaply in San Diego.
Writing the report is no problem and San Diego anything is somewhat hot as a search phrase item but how does one market such a thing?
Do I create a web site just around this report and try to get a high search engine ranking for it. That would take a month or more to achieve I think...assuming I could get a high rank for this site.
How do I market it quicker so as to generate income quicker without neccessarily waiting on the search engines.
As usual the breakdown in my thinking on this is how to do it practically. I mean the idea, like so many internet marketing ideas is great but a bit lacking in the practicals.
If anybody has any suggestions or ideas on the practical side of how I would market such a report and whether I could sell it and for how much I would appreciate hearing about it.
I don't need much of any input on how to write it or that type of thing. Just how to market it.
Thanks.
