QUESTIONS:
Jeff 
My 2900 LMS term for one of my sites shows no large ecommerce competition (Walmart, Target, etc.) Should terms in the 250-720 range reflect also reflect this? Also the same for KGRs?

Jaime  First should you keep posting articles on a consistent basis (i.e everyday or every Tuesday)? 
The other question is should you try to tailor your product review title to your KGR?
 
xavier gomes how can i drive huge amounts of targeted visitors to my niche site by organic search? 

Jasper 
I want to start an affiliate marketing website/blog about hiking. Now, my main question is: is "hiking" too broad? Will I have too much competition? I have a lot I want to talk about, so I like it to be this broad. However, I am thinking to maybe narrow it down to "hiking technology", to limit the competition. What would you think is the right approach here? Thanks.

how many kws would u put in one article ? i mean diffrent ones... like do u just use one alone or would u try and fit a couple in? say one main one and another with fewer searches

John 
What is your opinion of the Amazon native shopping ads? Do you use them? Or are simple text links the best way to link to a product?

I wanted to ask you if Google had an update recently? I heard it affected organic traffic. What are your thoughts?

I want to know how can I get paying traffic to my amazon affiliate site AAAAA.com? Did I construct this site well or what's missing?

Jeff (FFNS student) What is an acceptable DA to compete against for a top ten in Google? I heard you say that a 46 DA was high. What DA number(s) would you be comfortable with in building a site around? I have numerous KWs that the PAs (=30) and links (=40) are great but am concerned that the DAs will make it difficult to rank effectively.

Sorry I missed you Doug.  I have been trying to write content on my site and some take longer than others. I don't quite have the income to hire it done yet. I was wondering if I should continue to write product comparisons which take longer or once in awhile write just product reviews? Thank you!

Ryan 
Most of the KGR keywords I'm finding are long tail versions of a shorter and more competitive search phrase. These shorter phrases are dominated by well established authority sites, but these same exact sites show up in the top results when I search for the long tail KGR keyword. Will I be able to outrank these authority sites for the KGR keyword just by being an exact phrase match, or will googles algorithm just display the authority sites since the keyword they are targeting is "close enough" to the KGR keyword? 

Marcel 
How much do you pay freelancers to do guest post outreach for link building? Do you just pay hourly or added bonus if they get more links? 
Companies contact me wanting to send me products/do affiliate deals,  I write under a fake persona. How do you handle that?

Adrian  
what is going on with the drop in rankings all over websites after algorithm update

Kari 
I launched a new website 2 weeks ago. A 2 weeks post that  has 1000/mo for 18 allintitle,  ranks #18 on page 2 with 3200 words.
 I made 8 sales already with it (readers buy what I recommend which is amazing to me). 
I have another KGR Friendly 480/mo 53 allintitle, I rank #16 with 1200 words and it's a 10 days old article. 
They both rank better than the real KGR ones. I did blog commenting but there are not too much blogs to comment on for my niche. I do 25 pinterest posts redirecting to my articles everyday. 
I rank number 1 for my KWs on Bing which starts to give me some traffic too. WHAT CAN I DO TO GET THAT NUMBER 1 SPOT on Google AND KEEP IT? or at least appear somewhere in the first page. 
Thank you in advance for your answer.
