As for the signup for the support group, it will be posted on how to sign up for it, and the "strict" requirements that MUST be met before being considered for entry. Look for this post tonight around 11 pm Eastern Time USA. It will also be getting zoomed pretty quickly as I have to pull a 48 hour shift starting in the morning, but I will be checking in on signups throughout that time. Best wishes and look forward to your submission! There are so many ways that local items can be weaved into your local niche blog, you just need to know which way works best.

There is so much we can do to write about and I think Terry will find that it is a lot easier than anticipated. My niche is also very small, but then it is targeted and since we live here we know a lot of town goss and info. This can all be weaved into our niche blog too. But I'm having troubles seeing were you put the sign up page for the niche group. <em>Freelance Writing's last blog post..<a href='http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/thewritersmanifesto/blogfeed/~3/216992389/' rel="nofollow">How I Got A New Blog Indexed In 38 Minutes</a></em> Hi Elliott,

What I am thinking about that is focus on both sets of keywords with your one blog. Either use a seperate page or section for it. The page one results of Google should be pretty easy to take on, even page two as there are only a couple of PR 5 and the rest look like PR 3 or 2 sites.

You got me thinking about something, too - I've been gearing up to target the Costa Del Sol, but now I'm wondering if I shouldn't go even tighter and just zero in on my town. Only problem with that is monthly searches even for Mijas is so low - just a few a WEEK! whereas the Costa Del Sol at least gets a few hundred hits a month. There's the dilemma - virtually no searches on any of the local towns and actually quite a lot of Google competition on all related keywords (these people probably have no idea why nobody goes to their sites!), but better search results for the whole area. I'm leaning towards covering the bigger area and dividing the blog into maybe local zones and getting round the problem that way. Its all about the challenge as well, the tougher it is the bigger the happy slap on the back when it works!

Of course, Tuppy might not be in an area that gets a lot of tourists, but there's bound to be a lot of stuff he knows about the country he's in that a lot of tourists do not and would enjoy finding out about by reading his blog. <em>Jason A Clark's last blog post..<a href='http://jasonaclark.com/2008/01/15/singleton-gives-a-team-details/' rel="nofollow">Singleton Gives “A-Team” Details</a></em> Your idea for Tuppy seems to make perfect sense.
