Well that's a good point
Does it count to say my path is to try a little bit of this and that?
I want to aquire some good type in and typo domains, some good ones to sell and some good ones to develop with adsense/adwords. I think that sums up a little bit of everything! So doesn't it make sense to have at least a few tools that allow me to try a bit of this and that but with the RIGHT tool?
Thanks everyone for the advice on tools!
I've been thinking about your sage yoda advice...if you were just starting out, what do you think is the clearest route to success? Where would you start if you were me knowing what you know?
I have a web development background although need to get caught up with the whole CMS side of things. I have always done pretty standard small business sites with Dreamweaver but not full time now for several years so am behind the curve with Web 2.0
So far i think the domain universe is intriguing. I bought 60 domain names off the bat for fun before I realized *duh* there is a whole science to this, necessitating serious learning and research before buying anything more, hence my desire for tools. Plus, I'm a tools freak...I LOVE research tools, they make me happy.
I have a keyword program called "Keyword Analyzer". That used to be fine for my Adsense campaigns but I was doing that several years ago and I'm sure the field has changed.
I think it's a ridiculous amount of fun to look at your adsense stats and see money there, and have the same thrill when I see a click here or there for my sedo parked domains.
So...that's me. Knowing what you know, what would your yoda advice be as to where to start and which tools to invest in? I am getting a bit lost in all the options.
Thank you!
