Ultimate Guide to Niche Site Duel 2.0 Supported by Pat Flynn Readers

Posted on November 27, 2013 by Antonio Coleman

Welcome to the Ultimate Guide to Niche Site Duel 2.0 brought to you by some very highly respected online marketers and me. We all are/was participating in the niche site duel Pat Flynn started on his website this past spring.

Many of us wanted to following alone to see what types of strategies will Pat use to market his Food Truck niche site. Plus there were people who wanted to create their own niche site or niche page on their own websites to see if they could find gold at the end of the rainbow.

So I went out and found some great minds that were setting up their own niches sites or pages and wanted to get their views on how they will tack ranking a niche site or page. You see SEO is not as simple as saying you must do this or that because if you know it or not seo has many layers.

Different people tackle SEO in many ways you will not even imagine so getting the views of these awesome marketers will help you see what steps you need to make if you want to rank a website.

If you really want to learn how to at least learn the basic of ranking a website, and the things their doing to get their site to move up the ranking then read their blueprints to higher rankings. I can write about seo all day here on CMG but sometimes I love for my readers to see seo coming from other individual so you can grasp that this is not rocket science at all.

Anyone can rank a website if they have the right blueprints to follow and my friends Mats, Tony, Jan and Jason will try to help you start that journey into search domination.

Finally: I understand everyone will not grasp all things explained below when it comes to content and building links so for all the people who want to lock down all the basic of SEO from A to Z then think about checking out this free online web base eBook called SEO in Practice.

I must say it will walk you through the basic of seo, and give you the knowledge you need to dominate any niche market. The guys below have taking out their time to put together a great Ultimate Guide to Niche Site Ranking so at the end of reading this post make sure you share this page to the left, and visit their social profiles and website to learn more about them.

Let’s get started…

My take on the NSD(Niche Site Dual) is more of a watching and get the information in a new way. I have been following Pat since before the first NSD challenge. And I did participate more on the sideline in both challenges.

I am building a new site and have combined some of the strategies Pat uses with my existing knowledge I have gotten from experience and learning from others in the IM space. You should expanding who you follow to also include Frank Kern, Eben Pagan, Dan Kennedy, Jeff Walker, Ed Dale, Brendon Burchard and many more. Don’t just look at the information they put out, follow their launches and how they do them. You can learn a lot by just doing this in the start, when $2000 products scare you off. I have gotten some of their big packages myself and every time I did, they paid for themselves over and over again, still does it today.

What I have done this challenge:

Found back to one of my niche ideas from before, that had some dust on it and haven’t been followed through in a good way. Its already making a decent sum of money, read more to find out.

My guide for people starting off:

Make sure you go through the long and painful process of finding the right niche, Pat is taking a bigger approach this time to build an authority site. But I think niche sites is still the way to start, since it can give you funds to a bigger project later on. You also need to learn some basics with more doing and some errors.

Then as Pat is talking about, can you make yourself write 50 posts about the topic? Well I have a solution for you.

9 STEPS – Create 108 Blogpost Ideas in like 30 minutes:

1. Start off using Bubbl.us for a mindmap or MindJet for offline use as well.

2. Write your niche idea in the first bubble

3. Make two bubbles out of the first one, mark them with NEED and WANT.

4. Divide the bubbles you just made into 3 bubbles on each.

5. Write down 3 niches within the niche, but on the WANT side is what people would want to learn, and on the NEED side its something they need to learn. Like in NSD, people want a money making site, but they need to learn keyword research.

6. Then make 3 bubbles on each of the niched down niches, so you got 18 bubbles to work on in this step.

7. Put different topics in these bubbles also. So you got 18 categories.

8. Question time, make 6 bubbles on each of these 18 categories, so its 108 bubbles. On each bubble under the category make a question starting with Why, What, How, Who, When, What if…

9. Voila you got 108 possible blogposts or articles.

Should look something like this without the questions:

Click Here to Enlarge

Create the content SUPER FAST:

1. Find people already in the niche, like Pat is going around asking owners of foodtrucks.

2. Ask to interview them, and take a portion of your questions. I like to chunk it to one of the 18 parts you come up with first, so you got 6 questions for them.

3. Do the interview on Skype.

4. Edit the interview, add slides if its not with video, make it fast paced and mostly ok.

5. Strip out the video and make them into MP3s

6. Get the MP3s transcribed.

7. Write blogposts from the transcribed text.

8. Post all 108 videos to youtube and as separate posts in your blog.

9. Make a podcast and post all the 108 mp3s to it and on your blog.

10. Post all the transcriptions to your blog as separate posts.

11. Post all the blog posts you wrote off the transcriptions to your blog.

You should pace the postings out with a post in the future options which exists in the WordPress CMS. So you got 108 days of content minimum. Also you can use some of the posts as guest posts on other websites so you build good, natural links to your site while growing your audience.

Then when you are done with this, make a book:

Take all the blogpost you have written and comments from your Youtube channel and blog into a word document. Then start editing and add pictures, graphics and more content on each topic. Since you know have learned a lot more than you started out with.

Get a cover made on Fiverr.com, and publish your book on Amazon and iTunes. $10 is a cool price, could be more or less, depends on the value you give away here.

Make an audiobook even faster:

Then get a freelancer to read in the book as an audiobook to publish on Audible.com. Use the money from the book to pay for this.

To sum up:

That’s my start off it all. You know have lots of content, links from guest posts, credibility from book and audiobook and most likely a growing following in all social media channels you have posted to.

Can it be done any easier? Faster? Lets see what’s Pats up to with his site this season of NSD.

Unlike most marketers, I don’t really take the common route in securing prominent search rankings. Perhaps the most beneficial thing you’ll read, about my niche site duel approach, is the specific keyword research analysis I undergo before getting started. Additionally, you’ll also notice from my recent keyword selection post, that I’m not exactly following someone else’s selection formula. So, with that said, let me begin.

Niche Selection Approach

Most niche marketers say that you should pick a niche with a lack of competition. Personally, I think that’s crap. Not only should you select a niche with competition, you should also select a niche based on what you’re passionate about or based on what you hope to accomplish with your niche site (selling leather artisan products versus say delivering joy to someone with your site).

I won’t say much more on this except that I tend to select a niche before I even do the keyword research. Yeah, I know, it’s not exactly how some of the other niche marketers do it but it’s the only way you’ll keep up with a niche business of your own, trust me.

I use the finding in my keyword research and analysis to find ways to BREAK INTO a niche, not to decide whether or not that niche is worth going into. Again, I tend to select the niche before performing keyword research — not the other way around. Once I get to the keyword research, if it really looks absolutely horrible and what I hope to accomplish seems completely unattainable, then I consider moving on in search of another niche.

Keyword Research Approach

As mentioned earlier, the research approach I perform tends to be a little different than most niche site building marketers undergo. If you’d like to learn the conceptual approached and see the actual variables I use for my keyword research, you can go here. However, if you’re goal is to get a quick overview of my keyword research, then keep reading.

There are a two main factors I look before accepting a niche as worthy to pursue. Here they are:

1. Keyword Cost Per Click

2. Keyword Advertiser Count

Interestingly enough, there has been a lot of talk about the new Google Keyword Not Provided issues that seems to have plagued the search world. I’m not going to focus on this issue much, but if you’d like to learn about keyword not provided solutions, then make sure that you learn at least one method and stick with it.

Personally, I’ve never had to worry about keyword queries much. So why do I mention this? Because the Keyword Cost Per Click variable, is probably the sole solution to the above issue folks are having with not knowing their keyword traction. After all, who cares about keywords when the most important detail is whether they’re profitable enough to go after?

Keyword Cost Per Click is pretty important to me when confirming a selected niche. When I see that advertisers are willing to pay big bucks per click, I know that there is a little money to be made with most website monetization mediums. Specifically, I like to focus on Adsense as the first method of monetizing a site. With that said, if the Google data says that advertisers are willing to pay premiums for ads placed on search query results of particular keywords, then there’s a good chance you could make out with some good change if you were to increase traffic to your niche site for said keywords. That said, I don’t usually go into every high paying niche that I find — not unless my requirement for #2 above is met.

Sure, you could go into a niche that looks to be ready to pay you big bucks based on the Cost Per Click. However, what if there is only two or three advertisers in that space? You’re screwed if the advertising count decreases and you’re better off it increases. So, the obvious is to make sure you pick a niche with lots of advertisers (I set my minimum at 8).

I tend to look for niche markets that have a higher competition base of advertisers. Where do I get this data, Tony? Ever notice that little column in the Google Keyword Planner data labeled “competition?” Well, you can either look at that to see if there is a good number of competitors throughout the year (the higher the competition the better), or you can simply take some of the focal keywords for your niche, search for them on Google and then see if there are more than 8 advertisers in the ad spaces.

Why 8 advertisers?

Honestly, it’s just a baseline I’ve worked with for a while now. You can set your own benchmarks. The point is, if there are advertisers and their willing to pay medium to high cost per click fees, then you’re probably going to see some good monetary results.

From Keyword Research to Business Model

If you’re looking for ways to monetize your niche site, this paragraph isn’t going to cover that. Instead, it focuses on how to set yourself, and your site apart from current and future competitors in your niche.

So you’ve selected a niche, validated its probable success using keyword research, and you’re ready to build a site and post content and make lots of money, right? Wrong!

One of the most important steps in the entire niche marketing process is selecting the business model that would help you the most in becoming a leading niche market leader. In order to become the big fish in a small pond, you have to do something different, something better, something your competitors aren’t doing or doing that great.

Always think ahead in your planning. How will you make it that much harder for someone trying to take over market share in your niche from doing so? The best bet is to think big with your small niche from the get-go. Make sure you set yourself so far apart from what a regular market leader might look like that no one could ever replace what you’re doing.

A great example is Zappos.com. They are the largest shoe retailer online, and really stands in the way of other market competitors from entering that market, but no one, absolutely no one, will ever replace Zappos.com in how they treat their customer and how they run their business. Nobody.

Making sure that you think BIG is the best thing you’ll do for yourself in the long-run. If you think putting up a simple content website will be enough, you’re wrong. Straight up wrong. In the long-run, you can’t seriously think you can sustain a niche site without doing something to set yourself apart. Selecting a good business model will help you align your website with the best and optimal monetary methods to be successful.

Getting Your Niche Site Up And Running

Now that you’ve gotten your plan all set in stone, you’re that much closer to really creating something of value for your asset portfolio and your future audience/customer. Costumer? Whether you’re providing information, software, products, or services, you’re still serving someone. If you’re using information to monetize your site, your content should be outstanding. If you’re selling blue widgets for a platform, those widgets better be so bad ass, your grandma would be so proud of your creation. You get the point.

Last tidbit: All I can say is, make sure the perceived value of your site is high and you’ll reap in the benefits of your niche site creation. Good luck with your niche site building!

MNSC #1 – Finding Your Niche

Finding your niche is obviously the first step when you’re creating a micro niche site. This is why my Micro Niche Site Challenge also starts with this step. The niche is basically the main topic of your site. Since we’re going to build a micro niche site, we’ll create about 7 – 10 pages, not more. At least not in the first step.

Your niche must fulfill several criteria to really earn you some money. It’s not easy to find such a niche, in fact most people aren’t earning any money because they haven’t found this right niche.

For the MNSC I’ve done heavy research on how to find the right niche. I’ve gone through the most important blogs like Nichepursuits.com and analyzed the Niche Site Duel of Pat Flynn. When you use the results of aggregating the criteria of the most popular experts, you should be able to find a high quality niche…continue reading

MNSC #2 – Creating A Website With WordPress

Hi everyone, in my first post of the Micro Niche Site Challenge I shared with you how you can find your niche. Now we’re creating a website with WordPress, to publish our content online.

This post is not only applicable if you want to create a niche site but also when you’re launching a blog, a personal website, or a new website for your enterprise. I want to show you, how you can choose a webhosting plan, install and configure your WordPress website, and publish your first post.

Why Am I Creating A Website With WordPress?

Let me first talk about, why almost all bloggers and internet businesses rely on WordPress as system for their websites. WordPress is a Content-Management-System (short: CMS). It’s designed to let you easily publish content online and to be highly customizable. continue reading

MNSC #3 – Creating Content For Money Earning Sites

Let’s be honest: we all want money earning sites! And it’s nothing bad about it. You’re reading the third post of my Micro Niche Site Challenge. The first one was about finding your niche, the shows how to create a website with WordPress.

Creating high quality content is crucial for money earning sites, because all money earning sites must rank well in Google and have a good SEO strategy. I’m going to explain how you structure your content very effectively to make your website rank. There are several criteria and methods that you can use to make content creation easy. This is what all money earning sites have in common: they rank high for their target keywords and thus get free traffic from the search engines.

We will target one single keyword per page. On this way we assure, that the pages of our niche site don’t compete against each other but provide comprehensive information on the topic we chose. continue reading

Criteria For Successful Niche Websites

Ok, I’ll admit it. I’m infected with the virus of creating niche websites.

In fact, right after I finished my challenge, I started doing researching keywords to create four additional niche websites. People like Spencer Haws and Pat Flynn are really inspiring me and they show that it’s possible to earn money with niche sites. What makes me most excited about niche websites is the possibility to make 100% passive income!

Since the keyword research is crucial to find a profitable niche, I decided to furthermore reveal the EXACT criteria I’m going to use for my next niche websites. You need to know that the keyword research is deciding whether you can make money with your site or not. I started making money with Google Adsense and it did quite well. But I could earn at least the double amount of money if I considered keyword targeting right from the beginning.

Since I want you to replicate my success and to start earning money online, I’ll guide you through the process I’m using when I do keyword research in preparation for niche websites.

You might say, damn you created only one niche website, what makes you an expert for keyword research? continue reading

I looked for a long tailed keyword that has high CPC and that seemed like I could compete to get it. Then I hired a ghost writer who created 50 articles for me. I published these articles optimizing for SEO using SEO Yoast plugin.

I used SEOnuke to do some backlinking… This didn’t really work, so I created a video I plan to put through my friends SEO strategy for videos, which should get me on the first page of Google in a few months.

Case Study: How I Ranked for “Shreveport Marketing Firms” by Using a YouTube Video

Posted on November 23, 2013December 4, 2013 by Antonio Coleman

I’m doing one of the first case studies here on Colemanmg.com for all the people, and small businesses of the world. This is just to show you that it’s possible to rank any video in the search engines no matter if it’s worldwide or just locally in your community. This case study will focus on me going after a keyword phrase which is “Shreveport Marketing Firms”.

The reason for this is that I’m near this area and I felt like I could come in, and steal a little of the search traffic from it. Now this keyword doesn’t gets thousands of visitors a month because for one it’s a local keyword, and next because it’s just not that competitive. But for my first case study on CMG I feel as though going after a keyword like this that’s in my niche will be the best way to start dominating this market.

My Goals

To keep it simple and plan I’m looking to at least get the video on the first page into the top 3 spots. Now you might be asking why don’t you want to be #1 in the search engines for that term? When it comes to a YouTube video they have a thumbnail that shows up in the listing which is more eyes catching then a regular listing. This forces the searches to click the thumbnail before even clicking #1 ranked listing.

But this is something I will be writing about more in the near future which will explain why being in the top 3 is just as good as being #1. So today it’s all about given you the latest update of the video, and where it’s at in the search engine. If you will like to keep track of this case study, and also get future updates of all my free local marketing strategies. Than just take a moment and get my “Antonio’s 31 Tips to Dominate Your Local Market”.

Need Your Help!!! Please take a second and share this page with your friends with social links to the right. Yes I Will Appreciate It.

Update 11/22/2013

Update 12/2/2013

It’s been ten some odd days since the first update of me trying to rank a video for “Shreveport Marketing Firms” Today I’m just given you a quick overview of where the video is at in the search engine, and the number of keywords it’s ranked for. Just to let you know all I did with the video was to upload it to YouTube and bookmarked it on six highly authority website.

So as you can see above searching in Google for the main keyword spit back my video in the 6th position. Not only has it showed up as a thumb nail which is very eye catching to anyone searching for this keyword. It’s also over powering the other searches just by been a video versus just content. This is the main reason YouTube video marketing is so powerful is because the video stands out like a sore thumb.

Here is some more keywords its ranked for..

Shreveport marketing firms #6
Shreveport marketing #20
Shreveport firms #16
Shreveport marketing agencies #16

Ranked #1 in YouTube

If you input the main keyword into YouTube the video comes up #1 above a lot of videos that’s been there for a while. Know that YouTube is the second largest search engine so if you can rank higher here, and in Google then welcome to the best of both worlds.

Check it out on YouTube

How Did This Ranking Occur?

The only thing I did to give this video that little juice it needed to rank in it give spots is that I booked marked it. Below are the following websites I booked marked the video to given it a little boost of seo.

1. Newsle

2. Bizsugar

3. Blogengage

4. Digg

5. Delicious

6. Reddit

These are the only places I posted the video just to give it a little love tap in the search engines. This is just the start of the process of ranking the video even higher just to see what results I will get. Now I will take it a step further by doing a little content marketing when it comes to some web 2.0 websites over the next two weeks.

So stay posted of the next update which will be updated here in this post between the weeks of December 16-20. I will be including everything I did when it came to building up links through these powerful webs 2.0 websites.

Next Update December 16-20

Monthly Stats Report for October 2013

Posted on November 14, 2013 by Antonio Coleman

Welcome to another great prosper month for CMG when it comes to overall growth. September was a pretty good steady month for the site, and if you missed the update then check it out here.

The overall reason behind these posts is for me to track the success of the site, and allow you to get a front row seat into what I’m doing to grow the website. Nothing is here just for show; everything on the website is done in a way to educate you on the things that actually work.

Yes my website is mostly targeted to local seo marketing which I demonstrate how to dominate your local market. I’m teaching the things I would do if I wanted to just start a business in a certain area; use creative marketing tactics to move pass the local competition.

Not only that I’m doing things on this site to grow the brand nationally and worldwide. My goal is to have the #1 local seo marketing website online that will become the hub for those small businesses from around the world to come to, and learn the latest marketing strategies.

These posts allows me to document everything I do from networking, SEO, guest posting, interviews, list, events, webinars, podcasting and much more. I’m given you a front row seat into how to grow a website slow but consistently every month until I see the results I want. “Failure Is Not an Option”

What Happened in September?

To start I will like to say that this month moved faster than last month in terms of me really making moves of being active. Here outside my city in Minden there is this thing called the main to main which takes place every year. It’s nothing more than a big rummage sale of people selling their goods and services on the sides of the road.

What I did is that I got my camera and hit the streets and started taking pictures of the local vendors. Not only that I posted them to my website so the vendors could come to the page and share it. Plus I gave them one of my business cards which had all my contact information on it including my website information. Lots of them seen the services I provided and many said they might be contacting me in the future for local marketing help. So my goal was to provide a service for free in hopes of getting a business card in their hands…smart marketing huh

Getting Interviewed

One of the things I’m doing is taking my own advice in dominating my local market first before moving on to the big cities. So I contacted our local newspaper, and explained who I am and what I do. I told them that I’m looking to giveaway valuable information for the small businesses in my city which will help them build their brands with less money.

I sent this through an email which they contacted me back to setup an interview here soon so I can spill my guts about how to dominate your local market. The overall goal here is to build up buzz for free events I’m looking to put on in my city here soon so people will come and learn even more valuable ways of growing a business locally.

Add Your Business

Last month I talked about I was looking to build buzz in my city by going around and asking local businesses about been featured on my website. Then I started to rethink that because another great idea hit me more than anything. I said why not just create an online small businesses directory where they can come and promote their business.

This will be even better because now they can add a bio, photo and videos of their business. So I took some time and sat that up on my site which you can see to the right side of the page. This is 100% free of charge, and all the businesses have to do is to update their listing every 30 days to keep their content current.

But I took it a step further by creating what I call local marketing domination just for my city of Minden. So I created a video just for my city of Minden La which educated them on the importance of listing their businesses. Not only that I optimize that video to show up #1 in the search engine for Minden small business or Minden small business directory. Now when someone search

For those words the video comes up that talks about the directory and how they can add their business…smart marketing huh

Antonio’s 31 Tips

Plus this month I created something that every small business needs if they want to dominate their local market. I put together 31 of the top strategies of marketing your business locally without having to spend more money on advertising. I list everything from having a website to doing local seo which will be the core of them building their brands.

I talk about email marketing and tons of other things that people can use starting today. I’m given all of this away for free of charge to those who want it. Plus if you don’t have a local business then there is still lots of valuable information in there you still can use to grow your website worldwide. The content is not just for local marketing it’s also targeted toward you building the brand online.

I have big plans for this guide which I will talk about more in minute, but as of now know that it’s one of the best free local; marketing guides online so go take a peek.

October Stats

One good thing about this month is that 555 people came to the site via, search engine, direct or referred by another website. No matter how they got here I’m just happy they came by to check out my content. So if you take a look at the screen shot below you will see that ever single month the website traffic is growing in some form of fashion.

Now the month of August it had a big jump but that was due to the list post I did of 19 small business ideas from 19 different marketers. So that page was shared on many platforms which got a lot of traffic and exposure for my website. But after that everything to the site has been a natural steady flow as you can see from September to October.

555 people may not sound like a lot but go ask some of the small businesses in your town how many people walked through their doors this past month. Guarantee you it’s not over 555 people so to me this is a success and I just can’t wait to enhance it even more.

Overall Numbers

I’m creeping up that ladder to almost a total of 3,000 visitors to CMG bout at the end of this month. Now like I said that’s not a big number to jump over the moon for but it is a sign of growth and hard work. But I have something in place for this month that I think will really get the wheels turning when it comes to my traffic.

Links to My Site

Last month in September stats report it showed that I had 394 backlinks pointing to my website. Now that number has jumped up to a cool 499 backlinks pointing to my website. Now some of these links are coming from bookmark websites and content farm type sites. The content farm sites go out and find great content and post it on their websites with a link pointing back to you. This is normal and shows that my website is been picked up in the search engines and people are willing to link to it.

Plus I know some of the links are just from people who love my website, and just like linking to me. Even though the site is only six months old it’s on a path to really making some big moves here in the near future. The traffic is steady and the links are pouring in.

Search Quires

The search quires came back for a brief time this past month for about 4 to 5 days, and just dropped back off the radar. Now even though I’m not pushing that hard on the seo parts of this website to get traffic from certain keywords. It would be nice to see the sites quires come back up so I can start to get that traffic back.

If you can see the site was hitting around about 600 quires per day for a while until the bottom fell out on October 19. So for those who don’t know quires are just when your site shows up in the search engine when someone does a search. They didn’t click on your site it just that your listing was visible if that’s understandable.

2 Blog Post Per Week

Still for the month I’m trying to keep to doing at least two blog post per week. I’m doing this to keep fresh content for those readers of the CMG community, and to keep the search engines coming around to spider my content. There is no need to blog every day for those of you who thinks lots of content means more visitors. The best things you can do is to write good quality content that will transfer to visitors coming back and sharing of your content…this is what builds a website traffic.

October Taught Me

This past month was more about getting something into action such as putting together my niche site duel list post that will be going live soon. I learned that I needed to be more focus, and stay on task as much as I can so I am more productive. It’s so easy online to get distracted so next month I will be focusing more on one thing at a time.

Goals for November

November will be a good month for me when it comes to being more productive because of the things I have going on. First for the month I will be completing filling out all of my profile websites that links to my website here. These are free local websites that allow you to get an online presence just by setting up free local profiles.

Now I’m already member of about 50 prolife websites but I didn’t complete filing in all the information for all the sites. So this will be a big goal of mines this month of November. I will be doing a video blog post on this soon so stay tune to my website to get it once it’s live.

Next I will be connecting to a least at least 400 websites in my niche of marketing. I’m looking to put together a list post on “marketing creatively” so I will be emailing 20 websites per day which should get me about 30 to 40 response rate. I hope it’s more than that but getting this number will be great because I will be able to pick their brains of marketing creatively only and put it into a list post. Hope to get this done by December 1 to kick my site off with some targeted traffic.

Plus I will be doing my research on podcasting, and I have a website I will be using that will walk me through the whole process of setting one up and marketing it. Even though I know a lot about marketing, but when it comes to podcasts it plays by a different game so I must be educated on doing it the right way. So stay tune for that.

Lastly I’m looking to do my first free event here in my city for small businesses in my city. I’m looking to bring in some small businesses and show them some free ways of getting an online presence for their business without spending money on advertising. My whole goal for this is to educate many small businesses by January 1, and then put together an Ultimate two day event for those who want to learn exactly how to grow and market a business locally to dominate their market.

Plus stay tune to two case studies I will be doing for two local small businesses, which I will document me building an online presence for them. I will show you guys exactly how I did it and the results I got. It’s going to be awesome so subscribe to my website by getting my free 31 local marketing tips to be update when I product that content.

November will be busy month but I’m up to the challenge so if you have a second can you share this page with your friends to help me spread the word. My goal is to only educate so you can produce that thing call success.

Minden Main to Main 2013

Posted on November 1, 2013November 3, 2013 by Antonio Coleman

Check out some great vendors from the 2013 Main to Main going on now in Webster Parish. They were nice enough to allow me to snap some photos of them showing off their products and services. This is from day one of the Minden main to main which was filled with lots of excitement from around the community.

I’m looking to add more photos from day two as I take them. But unfortunately I can’t be everywhere from Sibley to Springhill so if you know anyone in the surrounding areas who wants their photo added to the list of vendors below then have them take a photo at their booths, and email them to me at info@colemanmg.com.

Please share this page..

If you have a second I will really appreciate if you can share this page with your family and friends in our local community. This is by far one of the biggest events to come to Minden and the surrounding cities so let’s do our part of spreading the word.
