I'm assuming the machine based translators are not going to produce fantastically coherent articles. My initial thoughts are that it might work for search engines, but human readers are just going to be annoyed by the articles they find?

All of your efforts should keep snowballing into something big. I agree with Chris's advice about using some type of language translation. With travel niches, using multiple languages can significantly boost your efforts. Despite the drop in income this month, I think you are definitely on the right track.

The most simple case would be to sign up for a program and place a banner or text link on your page. Of course that doesn't give the best conversion rates, though better than nothing. If you want people to actually buy something you will have to think about the context. I've had surprising succes with an affiliate program when I rephrased the surrounding text on the page -- conversion rates tripled.

I absolutely love the idea of working hard for a little while then being able to pack up and go traveling. I hope to be able to do something like this too. I have some ways to go regarding making money online but everyone has to start somewhere. I look forward to reading more about your adventures and hope it isn't too dark down there in your dungeon. Do you think you will achieve your goal of being elsewhere for the winter? Hi there,

I've been following for half a year and I'm a big fan of your honesty and transparency, and it's very helpful to people like me who are starting out. I hope you can figure out how to expand in a big way. Have you ever tried any automated tools such as Article Marketing Automation or Traffic Bug? These types of tools can magnify your efforts and automatically handle things like social bookmarking or article distribution. I haven't tried any personally, but I was a member of Dan Raine's "Immediate Edge" for a while, and a lot of people raved about them. Another one that could be cool, especially for travel-related sites is Global Translator Pro. It's a WP plug-in that takes your articles and automatically translates them into 41 languages. (If you had a 10 article site, you would have 410 articles, indexable by the search engines.) It has a free version. http://www.nothing2hide.net/global-translator-pro/ And if the translation wasn't perfect, you could at least have a notice on the page saying "this text was automatically translated" or something, and maybe you could regionally target the language with adsense. (I'm not sure if/how that would work, just ideas.) Cheers, Chris Hi Kristy,
