In late 2009, I decided to build lots of small niche sites (seeing some success from my early experiments). Before that time, I did a little bit of keyword research, but nothing significant. I've been an avid keyword researcher since about early 2009. (I have big plans for the future as well as you will see from reading below). I was able to find a problem I had, built a software product that met my own needs, sell it to others, and generate over six figures during its very first year. However, the results for me have been huge. I can't promise you that reading this will lead to your own six figure software business, but I think there are some valuable lessons hear that any entrepreneur could learn. Now with “20/20” hindsight, I'm able to see what I did wrong and what decisions I made that were absolutely right.

Some of what I discuss below, were some of the hardest decisions I've ever made. Its time to tell the story of Long Tail Pro.Īs the creator of Long Tail Pro, I've discussed some of the ups and downs of owning a software business, but I've never divulged all of the details that have made this side of my business what it is today.
