One of those sites saw the traffic they received on a constant basis, thus wrote a post the same as my original, and as they had a newer post, and more sitewide juice, I lost that traffic stream.

You're providing more content that is relevant to search query that a person is looking for. If you could clarify what you mean by "stealing traffic from a neighboring site," that would be great because I'm not clear what you mean by it. I'm not stealing traffic from any friendly site, it's purely competition in the search industry. @<strong>everyone with mint</strong>: Mint isn't free. Firestats is. That's really what it comes down to. I can get the same exact results I need through Firestats which is free so I don't see a reason why I should go spend $30 on a piece of software which does the same thing. @Andy: I don’t understand why you think it’s unethical SEO.

However, I had a small database problem that popped up out of nowhere, which resulted in the Firestats installation going kaputz. Unfortunately there wasn't really any way for me to delete the tables for some reason (luckily the server admin is always on call :D) so that was resolved. Now that the SEO issue has popped up, I think I'll try and install it again :) Firestats does give some wonderfully detailed info!

Everything seems fair game. Your getting lots of traffic from one post, making a second and getting more traffic seems like a logical solution. Google does allow for a max of two page from one site.

It´s a good tip use firestats, in fact, what I do sometimes once an article is ranking well is improve it with these new and better keywords shown in firestats, but I delete the old one once that I´ve got a better place in SERPS.

I have used blogs and webstats programs(FireStats) to determine what people are interested in. This method uses this same technique to hone or focus in on your market. I also us the Popularity plugin for Alex King to find the most popular article on my site and then expand on these. This is what people are coming to your site for. One other thing I do is keep a keyword list by my computer so when I'm posting I know which words I want to add to the post. This keeps me focused on the niche I am serving and the SEO target.
