Editor's Notes

  1. Long tail niche - may be easier More generic - may be harder
  2. 2015 - Google is already changing algorithm to include and focus on semantic search instead of keywords long tail
  3. What are the goals? If aggressive traffic goals in a short timeline, more budget should be allocated to these
