Good advice. I'm seeing that I probably need to do that as well. I'm also not sure about my niche. I'm combining my two passions, frugality and gardening, in one site, concentrating right now on the gardening.

Also, I would like to say that if you're on a blogging or article site, it is easy to get sidetracked by discussions in the forums, or by reading other blogs, articles, when you should be spending that time building your content. If I could do it again, I'd have about 20 more pages on my niche content! The key, I think, is to get focused on your niche, and try not to get distracted by other topics.
