Lynn you are amazing.

Hi Lynn,

I discovered you 10 days ago via one of your posts on Allans board. I have read your blog from start to finish, and I feel like I have finished a great novel!! You have to be admired. You have the most amazing discipline, drive and ambition. I love the way you combine personal stuff and business together in your blog, I think it works really well.

My name is Fiachra Kavanagh, and I am a 35 yearold guy from Ireland. To make along story short I got into affiliate marketing 2 ago years after selling a traditional business. I first bought James Martels guide, and built 9 sites using his methods. 2004 was a good year for me, with many of my sites achiving great rankings and I made good money mainly from Adsense and CJ. 2005 has not been as good because most of my sites have been dropped from Google, but still do well in Yahoo and MSN - so atleast i still have some income.

I am not sure why my sites were dropped from Google, but I think one reason is maybe that I used too much of the retailers content for my product reviews and descriptions.

A question for you.

With your product based affiliate site, do you write your own original decriptions and reviews, or do you just use the retailers content?

thank you

Fiachra
