I was using 'stockbroker' as just an example. Anyway looking at what comes up on google under the search term I don't think getting top 10 in 'stockbroker' would be that much of a problem, and 'UK stockbroker' would be almost a given if you were prepared to work a little.

I'm actually starting to build a financial portal along some of these lines and due to the recent shuffle in google have already got 3 of my pages in the top 10 of google for a well known financial search term and 7 of the top 20. And I didn't do anything fancy at all, just created a simple site of about 9 pages of information and then linked into them from a couple of sites that I've got listed on dmoz together with the odd one page on another few domains.

All of you can critisize me all you want but I just feel that you're so battle hardened by the viscious competition in the adult world that you don't realise that there's almost no competition for such things as search engines in many different industries especially those located outside of the US. Of course I'm not talking about loans, casinos, flights and the like but there are many specialist industries on the web doing good business or attracting clients and these markets can easily be broken into.
Calculus, I wasn't critisizing you, but i'm happy to start ....

If you think the competition is more vicious in this market than in the mainstream market, you really are just an easy target ...

yes, there are many specialist industry's that have traffic going to waste in search engines ... now all you have to do is build enough sites to get enough traffic in those specialist industry's to get companies to want to buy it on a per click basis ... you have to match specialist industry keywords with sites that have either a ) an affiliate program or b ) an advertising budget

like you said EASY!

I'm not scoffing at the plan, i'm just not convinced that you know what it is going to take to achieve what you are saying is 'easy' to achieve - especially if you need to ask a group of adult webmasters if the mainstream world brokers traffic ...

Good luck with your venture
