  1. You should seriously think about building up this site into a dominant authority in this field. You clearly have a good understanding of the topics all of us are searching for on this website anyways and you could definitely even make a dollar or three off of some ads. I would explore following recent headlines and increasing the number of articles you make and I bet you’d start seeing some easy traffic soon. Just an idea, good luck regardless!
