Hi!
First, the compulsive communicator and posting addict in me has to post this observation:
Most of our ("our" means you, me and everyone reading this) competition Sucks!! To succeed brilliantly one only has to do a little bit better job than the competition, and that is Easy to do because, as I said above, most of the competition totally doesn't know what they're doing!

In another message you told how you outsourced part of the resume creation job, and that's obviously the best way to make a lot of money as a resume write: create an organization or a resume machine consisting of you and people to do most of the grunt work, and then just run the machine at high speed.

Totally agree, and I'd just add marketing affiliate programs to that, but you have to do it as a business not as a hobby.

They're well focused on a niche (or a group of niches) and the webmaster has to be a professional. It's doable, though not easy, to become a professional: it requires time, effort and membership in a community in which correct information is available and shared. You'll know you've found the right community for you because it will provide milestones to let you know where you are on the ladder of success and what you still have to do.
Hope this wasn't a waste of Dien's bandwidth or my time...
