There are also a variety back styles available. The price is also right, at under $20. The quality of the pumping bra and the design make it an easy choice for any woman. If you are a new mom or are trying to find a pumping bra for your child, you can't go wrong with this stylish pumping bra.
Freemie Pumping Bra
If you're looking for a nursing bra that's perfect for feeding and pumping at the same time, look no further than the Freemie Pumping Bra by Momcozy. This bra allows you to breastfeed your baby while simultaneously pumping your breasts. It also features an EasyClip system and hands-free pumping. It's machine washable so it's easy to maintain. It's durable and comfortable, making it a top choice among moms-to be.
This hands-free pump is a marvel in technology. It resembles a Robo Bra, which is a sturdy hand pump. It collects milk from the bra easily. Although it is only about the size of a human hand, it can hold eight ounces of milk. It doesn't require a pumping bra so you can work or play while you pump milk. This gives you more time to do the important things in your life.
Momcozy's Freemie Pumping Bra is made of comfortable, breathable cotton and spandex. It offers just enough stretch to provide comfort. It's affordable and features a wireless design and an elastic top edge. Mothers will appreciate how easy it is to take off and put on the bra. This bra is also great for lounging around the house, nursing at night, and sleeping in.
Kindred Bravely bra
The Kindred Bravely pumping bra can be used while you are pregnant, nursing, or any other situation. You will probably need to change the bra several times. Two clips allow you to open your breasts and insert parts. The Kindred Bravely pumping bra can be worn anywhere from the office to the beach.

The Kindred Bravely Pumping Bra provides smooth lines, support, and comfort. You can use it with the Bravado attachment to pump hands-free. The Simple Wishes Super Mom pumping Bra is another option. Although it looks more like a regular bra than a nursing bra this bra still provides adequate support. This bra is a great option for a pumping bra.
Sublime Busty Nursing and Pumping Bra
It is important to have a supportive bra that is comfortable for breastfeeding. A hands-free pumping and nursing bra can make a world of difference. This bra is soft, wire-free, and incredibly supportive. This bra is a favorite among moms because it doesn't require any pumping. You can even nurse and pump in the same bra! It is available in sizes F-I.

A maternity bra with clip-down cups and removable pads is another option for pumping and breastfeeding. This bra is designed to support breasts more than traditional nursing bras and is also comfortable to wear all day. It is made of a soft, supportive fabric that adjusts to the shape of your postpartum breasts. It also has an extra bra extender and clippers.

3 Quick Tips for the Perfect Second Interview
Congratulations! You've made it to the second round in the interview process. If you've made it this far, you've passed their basic compatibility requirements and now its time to shine.
Prepare for the Format
Second interviews can sometimes take several hours and can often include multiple heads of departments, so make sure you inquire about who will sit in yours when contacted. If this is the case, you'll want to spend time reviewing which department will be present and how your role would work with that team based on the job description. Once you get a better understanding of what each department is looking for in a potential candidate, you'll know how to better tailor your answers.
Get Specific
The second interview gives you a chance to drill down on areas you may have only touched on in the first interview. Prepare specific examples of that showcase your skills, past projects and accomplishments, and work experience. This is also a great opportunity to address anything you didn't get a chance to discussed earlier.
Ask Questions
If you've made it this far, you're being seriously considered for the position. Take this opportunity to ask any questions you may have about the role, its responsibilities, what the first 90 days look like, and more. Bonus – asking questions shows the interviewer how serious and interested you are, and while that may not get you the role alone – it certainly helps!

Charities that the SLC has supported in the past include:-
- The Roy Castle Appeal.

The lunar new year, dog fights, and a change of heart.
I am no Chinese and definitely cannot speak Mandarin but I guess my chinky eyes, plus the ubiquitous Chinese culture, grant me (and the world!) approval to join in, if not celebrate the Chinese New Year.
So even though the greeting's becoming staler by the hour, I'm saying it anyway:
If dogs could talk, Phoebe would be sending her greetings too. Just because she's a Shih Tzu and of Chinese descent (labo!).
Speaking of her, she's been extra vigilant around the house since the arrival of Hachi. I'm not surprised anymore as she's always had this self-important demeanor and a particular revulsion against other dogs.
I noticed an interesting similarity between dogs and humans upon observing how irritated and mad and aggressive Phoebe gets every time Hachi comes near her. How she, without any hint of doubt about how porky and heavy she is and how ridiculously impossible for her to jump to my bed, let alone lift herself, fights with every muscle (and fat) in her body to get herself to a higher, 'safer' ground—where no Hachi can reach her. It's so cute. I actually enjoy watching her struggle. It's like watching The Biggest Loser. Everything was there—the hopeful contender, the motivation, and the drive to get somewhere—weight loss just becomes a bonus. I just wish she'd lose the indifference towards Hachi (and other dogs in the planet), too.
Arrogance and pride and superior attitudes aside, Phoebe's abhorrence against Hachi and her behavior around him translate to only one thing: FEAR. Humans are not unfamiliar with these encounters. Sometimes, the only way to downplay our feelings of being threatened is to project the opposite---more frequently, in a harsh, reactive way.
We've all been a bully in as much as we've been bullied. Sometimes, we just don't realize it. Of course, we're okay not to admit it at all.
Truth is, we, too, find it difficult to face our own bullies--the scared, insecure, little child in all of us.
Ho-well, being a MEANIE can be healthy to one's ego, but people can actually live with less coldness, and more COMPASSION .
Now, how do I articulate that to a crabby, not to mention, inattentive, dog?
I think I'll be sitting this one out. After all, Phoebe's 70th place in Working/Obedience Intelligence ranking is forever uninspiring.

Anonymity on the Internet has been the topic of great debates since its inception, but more so in recent years. Just last week, Neowin reported that 4chan founder, Chris Poole, said that Facebook and Mark Zuckerberg were "totally wrong" about anonymity. Zuckerberg has long been a supporter to putting name to content. And just over a year ago, Formspring, a website that allowed you to register and have people ask you questions anonymously, became infamous practically overnight.
But a new website is set on getting straight to content without any obstacles in its way — take registration for example. AboutEveryone.com, still in beta, allows anyone to put in any Facebook user's profile URL and comment about them anonymously. There are no extra steps.
Already, the site has spawned comments that range from insults like: "She's a total b----! She runs around saying she's your friend, but then talks all kinds of s--- behind your back!" Some comments question or plead, "Why don't you stop lying too much to people?! ... You need to grow up and live to up to your mistakes." Others are thankfully a little kinder. Some users post about love lost and the rest are just complimentary; one person writes that a certain Facebook user "is beautiful" and another claims someone is the "most amazing kisser" offering to have his children.
The information does not alert the receiver of what you have said about them, or so it seems, and as of yet there are no other options to manage your comments. Though it does appear that AboutEveryone might be keeping some sort of tab on you as it knows which profiles you've visited and the site says it plans to support the removal of content in the future.

How to make swedish chokladbollar (oatmeal balls)
I have no idea if this cookie-similar stuff excist in America or wherever you live but i'll show it anyway. (if it has another name in english please tell me. And excuse me for the weird measurements)
Start with making the coffee, it's good if it can cool off for a minute or two so you don't burn yourself later.
Fix the rest of the ingredients when you're done with the coffee.
Put the butter and sugar in a bowl
(Now it's good to get some helping hands if you don't want to get messy, yet) Mix the butter and sugar well, I prefer to use my hands (or someone else's hands) so the sugar really gets into the butter
When you're done it should look like this
Put in the cocoa, vanilla sugar, oatmeal and coffee.
Now you (or someone else) have to put your hands down in the scary (lol) mixture and make sure it all mixes to a nice, firm batter.
It should look like this when you're done.
Now get two plates and some pearl (?) sugar, coconut flakes, crushed nuts or whatever you want to decorate your yummy oatmeal balls with.
Now start to roll small balls just like this.
Throw them (or lay them, but i like to smash things around) into your decoration.
Roll them around so the decoration gets stuck to the ball everywhere.
It should look similar to this.
Put the ready oatmeal balls onto the other plate.
Tadaaaa! I got like 45 small of them so that's great if you're having lots of guests or a children party or something like that. Smash them (or put them) into the fridge and let them cool for a while.
Enjoy your delicious, fast and easy oatmeal balls! Please comment what you thought about the guide and let me know if you got any questions!

Knowing how to tie a tie is an important part of being a man. Whether you're in high school and are dressing up for game day, or you're a grown man and have an important meeting (or you know, a 9-5 job) this is an essential skill every man must possess. If you're truly a skilled gentleman you'll go even one step further and know which knot belongs with which collar, which knot looks best for your face shape, and which knots you should just stay the hell away from. In case you haven't learned these imperative skills yet, we're here to teach you.
In the following sections you will learn how to tie every knot you'll ever need to know–and then some. So listen up, pay attention, and get ready to take an important step into manhood. This is how to tie a tie.
Already know the knot you're looking for? Skip right to it. Prefer your advice in infographic form? We've got that too.
- The Oriental Knot
- The Four-in-Hand
- The Half Windsor
- The Full Windsor
- The Prince Albert
- The Kelvin
- The Pratt
- The Bowtie
- The Eldredge
- The Trinity
- The Murrell
- The Balthus
- The Van Wijk
The Oriental Knot
This is the perfect knot for the tie wearing beginners, or those in a big rush. It's simple, it has very few steps, and it is pretty symmetrical, making it good with most semi-spread collars. The only downside? It isn't self-releasing, so it can be a bigger pain to untie than some of the others. Of course, you rarely have to get a tie off as quickly as you need to throw it on.
Basically, this is your no-fuss, always acceptable knot.
Here's how to tie it:
The Four-in-Hand
One of the most common knots, likely due to its simplicity, the four-in-hand is a slightly slimmer, more tapered knot. This is your generic knot that will work well with most collars, and should always be your goto knot for a knit tie. Plus, sometimes the asymmetrical look can balance out the uniformity of a suit, which is a good thing. Put together is great, put together with a little edge is even better.
Here's how to tie it:
The Half Windsor
A personal favorite, and goto knot for lovers of semi-spread collars, the half windsor knot is a slight step up from the beginning level of tie wearing without getting too complicated. This is the knot you should be wearing with your suit. Also, make sure you get the dimple right, it will add that much more dapperness to the overall look of the outfit.
Great for making the right first impression. It also says "I know what I'm doing" slightly more than the previous two.
If you need to know how to tie one tie, this is the one.
How to tie it:
The Full Windsor
The knot to help you channel your inner Ari Gold, this is the power knot. Refrain from tying this one before any interviews, but if you're at CEO status wanting to portray power in the room, this should be your choice. The full windsor works great with semi or full spread collars, but the sheer size of the knot can look awkward on men with smaller heads, so make sure everything looks proportionate.
To be honest, we see this knot more often than we should. Reserve this for big occasions, and don't make it your day-to-day knot.
Here's how to tie it:
The Prince Albert
The Prince Albert knot is a slightly more upscale version of the four-in-hand. It has the same tapered feel as the four-in-hand with some added bulk to it. This knot is a great choice for knit ties, or any tie worn with a pointed collar shirt.
We like the look of this knot under leather jackets, and less on a formal suit. It's a fun knot, and should be worn as such.
Here's how to tie it:

The Kelvin
Another knot with a four-in-hand feel, but slightly more debonaire. The Kelvin is a pretty standard knot, with the tiniest bit of flair added by the inverted tail–which is rarely seen. When we picture this knot we see it on a college professor, or a public attorney. Might not be the most stylish of the bunch, but it has its place nonetheless.
Here's how to tie it:
Diagram courtesy of our friends at Ties.com
The Pratt
A similar build and look to the half windsor, in a slightly smaller size. This knot is great with suits, marginally spread collars, and slim fit shirts (which you should be wearing either way). This is a man's man knot, and one of our favorites. Learn it, live by it, love it.
Plus, this is a great alternative to men who want the windsor look but have smaller features and don't want to look disproportionate.
Here's how to tie it:
The Bowtie
Feared by veterans and rookies alike, tying a bowtie can be a daunting task. However, if you're going to any real black tie event then wearing one is a necessity. And you don't ever want to be the guy with a clip on. If done right, the bowtie can look more dapper and elegantly mansome than most of it's long friends. Do it wrong and you look like a Bill Nye train wreck.
Choose your situations with caution and don't overdo it, but when you wear it, rock it with extreme confidence.
Here's how to tie it:
Diagram courtesy of our friends at Ties.com
The Eldredge
For the quirky dude in the bunch. Personally, I can't ever recommend you actually wear this. You will simply become "that guy,"– and not in a good way. But I have seen it done on numerous occasions, so clearly there are men out there with different opinions than my own. If you do decide to go with this knot, use it for a fun situation and keep it out of black tie events.
You don't want to be the guy in their friends wedding photos wearing this, remember that 20 years from now everyone will still be laughing at your poor choices.
Here's how to tie it:
Diagram courtesy of our friends at Ties.com
The Trinity
This interesting take on ties is a more recent one. Constructed to look similar to a Celtic Triquetra, the trinity is a larger knot that looks slightly rounded when done correctly. Like the knot before this, we aren't sure when one would actually need to wear this, nor are we sure anyone ever should. But, to each their own. We're here to teach, not to judge. So in the interest of learning from your mistakes, here ya go.
If you do decide to opt for this knot, stay away from pointed collar shirts.
Here's how to tie it:
Diagram courtesy of our friends at Ties.com
The Murrell
This is a kind of layered windsor knot, very symmetrical, inverted, yet smaller than the traditional windsor. This is the kind of playful knot we would expect to see on Bill Nye should he decide to go long instead of bow.
Here's how to tie it:
The Balthus
This giant knot is not for the faint of heart. Significantly larger than the windsor, the Balthus is the biggest knot on our list. It is very symmetrical and should be worn with wider spread collars. If done right, this knot can give off the "I'm in charge" vibe, so consider what message you want to send out that day. This can be great if you are indeed in charge, not so much if you're an intern.
Here's how to tie it:
The Van Wijk
A longer, slimmer version of the Prince Albert, this knot is an adventurous choice for pointed collar shirts. Getting it right isn't easy, and can potentially turn into the kind of knot you can't get undone, but if you do it right it's sure to get noticed.
This knot can add some great style points to any wardrobe if done correctly, and add some great laughs to the night for everyone else if it isn't.
Here's how to tie it:
Diagram courtesy of our friends at Ties.com
How to Tie a Tie
Now that you know how it's done, choose correctly, go forth, and impress. Make sure the knot fits with the spread of your collar, and accentuates the right features of your neck, face, and jawline.

Mystery of Bizarre Amazon Web Formations Unraveled
About six months ago, a graduate student at the Georgia Institute of Technology first spotted a mysterious web unlike anything scientists had seen before: Each one of the weird webs was a tiny sphere surrounded by a circular fence less than an inch (2 centimeters) in diameter.
The student, Troy Alexander, found the mysterious formation underneath a tarp at the Tambopata Research Center in Peru and had no idea what it was, so he posted photos of the webs on Reddit. Despite consulting with several experts — who made several wild guesses, from moths to slide molds — no one knew what built the structure, or for what purpose.
"I've had some experts write me and say they don't have an expert opinion on it because it is so bizarre," said Rice University ecology graduate student Phil Torres, who uncovered the web's maker and worked with Alexander. [See Images of the Weird Amazon Web Structure]
Return to the scene
About a month ago, the researchers finally got a chance to go back to the spot where they found the webs. They searched around the area where the first ones were found, eventually spotting 45 to 50 of the weird formations.
They then spent day and night studying the structures to see if they could find any signs of activity.
"We were really hoping to catch something being made or hatching out of it, or interacting in some way," Torres told LiveScience's OurAmazingPlanet. And they did.
One of their first hypotheses was that the blobs in the middle were spermatophores, or packages filled with sperm and nutritious food that would attract female spiders. But over the course of a week, they didn't find any signs of females coming to eat the packages.
Mystery finally solved
Finally, the researchers removed three of the structures from a tree and put them under a glass. After about a week, the mystery was finally solved when two spiderlings came out of two of the structures, and later, a third spiderling hatched from the formation. [See Images of the Web Towers and Spiderlings]
Past studies have found spiders laying egg sacs with at least six eggs, so finding sacs that contain just one egg is incredibly strange, Torres said.
The researchers still don't know what types of spiders make the webs.
"We don't even know what family, what group they're in," Torres said. To find out, they'll need permits to collect the spiders and grow them to adulthood.
More mysteries
The purpose of the fence also remains a mystery, though the researchers have a few theories.
During one of their days of observation, they saw an ant approach a tower and then turn back. The web towers are found on Cecropia trees, which have a symbiotic relationship with ants, so one possibility is that the fence defends against ant invaders that live on the tree.
The researchers also saw some mites crawling around the towers.
"It could be that these fences are designed to capture mites, so that whenever the spiderling hatches, it could have something to eat right there," Torres said. It's even possible that the spiders use some chemical attractant, such as a mite pheromone, to lure them to the webs, he said.
Either way, Torres said he's happy that the biggest mystery has been solved.
"I can sleep at night knowing it's a spider," he said. "We had just no clue before this."

The Philadelphia Phillies look to continue their hot start to the second half of the season as they welcome in the NL West leading San Fransisco Giants for game one of a three game series at Citizens Bank Park.
The Phillies currently sit 13.5 games behind the NL East leading Washington Nationals and 10 games behind the Atlanta Braves for the last Wild Card position. The Giants have a 2.5 game lead in the NL West over the Los Angeles Dodgers
Philadelphia will send out Vance Worley (5-5, 3.47 ERA) for Friday's series opener, looking to build off of his last start against the Colorado Rockies. Worley got the win against the Rockies when he gave up eight hits and just two earned runs in 6-2/3 innings of work.
The Giants will counter with Tim Lincecum (3-10, 5.93 ERA), who arguably had his best start of the year against the Astros on July 14. While he didn't factor in the decision, Lincecum pitched eight innings of shut out ball, only giving up five hits and striking out 11.
Take a look here at the game schedule and broadcast information:
Date/Time: Friday, July 20, 7:05 p.m. ET
Location: Citizens Bank Park
Online streaming: MLB.tv

Champlain Canal Collection
Collection Facts
Historical Context
The Champlain Canal is a 60-mile (97 km) canal that connects the south end of Lake Champlain to the Hudson River in New York. It was simultaneously constructed with the Erie Canal. The construction started in 1818 and the canal opened (officially) in 1823. The I.A Hodge & Co. won the contract to build Lock # 2. The company won the contract to construct the concrete lock chamber, the approach walls, the powerhouse, the storehouse, and the steel truss access road bridge. The excavation started in late November 1910.
Scope of Collection
The Champlain Canal Collection contains images of the construction of Lock # 2 on the Champlain Canal near Mechanicville, New York. The images in the collection show the construction and use of the cofferdam, the different types of steam equipment used, and some of the completed construction.

The way people build niche sites has changed a lot over the past few years, and in the last 12 months, in particular, we've seen the trend towards "authority sites" getting stronger.
So when speaking to Nader recently, I proposed writing an update on how to structure affiliate sites for the foreseeable future
A lot of people are still using outdated site-building methods, even things like exact-match-domains won't go away.
With that in mind, it's easy to see why people get confused about what really makes an affiliate site successful.
Let's put that confusion to an end in today's post.
The key ingredients to affiliate site success.
How you should structure one of your own sites to get the most out of them.
How to grow and scale a site once it's built.
To discover 200+ profitable niche markets click the image below now…
Also, before we jump into it, you might be wondering why you should be listening to me.
Well, first of all, I wouldn't be here on the NicheHacks blog unless I had some experience, and that's exactly the case.
I'm the founder and CEO of HumanProofDesigns.com.
We teach affiliate marketing, build done-for-you affiliate websites for our customers, and offer a selection of other services as well, such as article creation, link building, all that jazz.
Now, what this means is that over the past 4 years, the HPD team and I have learned a thing or two about how to structure affiliate sites, and how to scale them up beyond that initial structure.
So I'm not basing today's post on one or two successful sites I've had only.
When I say there's a trend in what makes a successful site, I have first-hand experience witnessing that trend.
So now that we've got that out of the way, let's jump in.
You've probably heard a ton of different terms used to describe sites before.
Niche sites, affiliate sites, authority sites, even micro-niche sites.
The funny thing is, each of those terms has a different definition, depending on who you ask.
I think the main reason for this is down to changing trends and fads, information becoming outdated, and also each of us having our own interpretation of affiliate marketing.
Also, when it comes down to it, there is more than one way to go about building a site.
For me personally, I think the most confusing term is an "authority site" which is also one of the most popular ways to build a site now.
But the reason people get confused is that authority sites are often spoken about as opposed to "niche sites".
The problem with this is that niche sites and authority sites are essentially the same thing.
No matter how authoritative you want your site to be, and no matter how many articles you add to it over time, it still needs to be "niche".
You can't talk about skiing one day and then hiking in the desert the next day.
Some examples of niches…
These types of general-topic sites DO exist, but they're very difficult to succeed with, and they're not technically what most people who talk about authority sites are building anyway.
Essentially an authority site is just a larger niche site, and the term has grown and evolved from the years before where you could build and rank a 10 page website (or sometimes even 1 page) and make money from it without growing it out.
The content didn't need to be fantastic either, as long as it was good enough to convince people to buy whatever product(s) you were promoting.
Now, this type of mini-niche site (ooh there's another term), doesn't work anywhere as effectively as it used to, and that's partly because audiences these days prefer to follow higher quality content from larger sites, but mostly down to the fact Google doesn't really rank these smaller sites anymore.
Link building is harder now too, which is another reason you need to build a site to a much higher caliber.
So don't get too worried about whether the site you want to build is a niche site or an authority site or whatever.
Instead, just let me show you what an ideal site looks like, and you can call it whatever you want.
So we've already established that a niche site now needs to be larger than 10 pages, and needs to have more authoritative, high-quality content.
That doesn't mean you have to worry about creating the best content on the planet though.
It just needs to be well thought out and decent enough to help the person reading it.
So half-assed Fiverr content probably won't cut it.
It also doesn't mean that you have to think about producing this huge website that encompasses everything and grows a huge social media following and turns you into a guru.
That would probably end up making you decent money, but not everybody wants to do that.
And as I just said, you don't have to.
Instead, you want to make sure your site meets the following criteria:
So we've already covered the first two points, let's look into the next two.
NicheHacks is a good example of a site that has high-quality content…
Yes, your site should stay niche and only focus on one topic or group of people, but don't just build a site around one single product.
You'll end up unable to scale the site.
Not only that, you'll also limit yourself way too much.
What's the point?
If you focus on just one product, and not as many people buy it as you think, then you will do a lot of work for nothing.
Plus, it's pretty hard to build an authority site around just one product.
You CAN still have a site that focuses on product reviews and informational articles though.
You don't have to try to reinvent the wheel and create some fancy new service or promote digital products in an authority site.
Look at it this way:
Instead of just dealing with one product in a niche, focus on multiple, and build out your site around those.
Then, add more and more.
For example, let's say you have a site about camping.
In the past people would find a good keyword like "Best hiking boots" or "Best camping tent" and just focus on that only.
Instead, you should go for all of them.
Write about tents, stoves, boots, bags, compasses, anything that you think is useful while still on the topic of camping.
You're still being niche, but you're also showing that you know a lot about camping, and you're giving yourself a much better chance of nailing one of these keywords and bringing in some commissions.
Now, while we're on the subject of covering multiple topics and sub-niches, let's finally talk about structure.
Below, you'll see an example of how we structure the sites we build for ourselves and customers:
What you're looking at here, is the page/post structure.
The "Niche – URL" box at the top is the homepage, and everything else is what we call a "topic cluster" (people often call these silos, but clusters allow them to be more fluid).
Here's a zoomed-in version of one of those clusters:
As you can see, each "Top-level product" is a post (which could also just be considered a topic or sub-niche rather than a product, depending on your niche) and is supported by various informational articles, using KGR keywords.
It doesn't have to be KGR keywords, but we like to give ourselves the best chance of ranking with these at HPD, so that's what we do.
We then have individual product reviews which we link to from the Top Level Product article.
All of this means that these clusters pass a lot of link juice and topical relevance to each other, which is great for on-page SEO. It also means that site visitors have natural paths to follow to become exposed to more of your affiliate links and to find the right offer for them.
I'm going to do an example below using real keywords so you can perhaps visualize it more.
Note: I haven't researched these keywords for their difficulty or search volume.
They're for illustrative purposes only:
Remember, the example above is just one cluster on a site, it's not the whole site.
What this means is that people have good opportunities to find our content either via an actual "Best keyword", a "review" keyword, or by searching for some information.
Whichever article they find, there's a good chance they'll click an affiliate link or click a link to an article that has affiliate links on it.
It also means that it's very easy to stay on topic and to say to Google "Hey, look how authoritative we are, we cover a lot of similar subjects and go into detail with them", and that will help your ranking.
It's also a great way for your users to spend more time on your site, which again, is good for ranking.
But I think most importantly, by doing it this way, if your "Camping tent" cluster never ranks, you've still got a good chance for your "Stove" or "Water bottle" cluster to rank.
It's never really possible to know for sure if you can get your site ranking for certain topics, so the more of these clusters you add, the better your chances of hitting a homerun become.
Finally, it helps you keep track of your site and helps you stay on topic without missing things or covering the same thing twice, or not knowing how to organize things.
When a site reached 50 articles, it can get messy quickly.
To discover 200+ profitable niche markets click the image below now…
So once you've got a solid understanding of how to actually structure a site, it will help you a lot with your keyword research.
Instead of digging around trying to find some "hidden gem" keyword and building an entire site around it, we're instead looking for clusters of keywords and niches that have multiple clusters.
This makes life so much easier because you just need to make sure that the niche you're looking at doesn't have a ton of eCommerce or huge magazine-type sites ranking for it – a sign that the niche may be too competitive.
Yes, you still need to do some manual analysis of the SERPs, but that's really beyond the point of this article, so I will save that for another time.
Once you've found a few clusters as I've shown above, how do you grow your site further and scale it even more?
Here are a few things you can do:
All of this points to the fact that you should make sure you select a niche with wide enough potential in the first place, in case you hadn't figured that out by now.
Also, with a site of this size, once you have a ton of content and some rankings, you'll be able to use tools like Semrush and Ahrefs to reverse engineer your competitors' rankings too.
So essentially, you just rinse and repeat, and do all the usual things you do to rank a site (add content, build backlinks), only by following a proper site architecture.
So what have we learned today?
Now, there is more to success with niche sites than just good structure, and I'd love to talk more about it, but this post is already 2,000+ words long. What's important is that many people struggle to properly visualize a site and figure out how to go about even starting to create it.
Hopefully, this post has shed a lot of light on this for you, so you have one less thing to worry about when starting your next site.

I did both the painting and the part of the poem wrote here on different days, today seemed the day to marry the both, this took little time.
Goodnight Sky ~ by Brandy Swartz
When I look at the night sky..
I have to ask myself, why?
Where others' have felt alone,
I finally feel I belong.
Could it be the Indian in me?
Wanting to believe, heavens keys, loved ones I see?
While some preach only bad comes from the night…
I love those sparkles of light!
Gather still compassion there,
Good place say my prayer.
Yes, I still feel small,
But, don't we all?
Always magic to me…
Sets my soul, free!
