Hey y'all just another update on how the site is going. Rankings are steadily improving with my main KW in position 11.
Traffic is growing steadily which is fantastic.
Not huge amounts of traffic but they are very targeted.
This is the first month affiliate links have been live and this is how they're going. Over 21 days the site has made $132.43 which works out to be $6.30 each day.
Key Successes
- Nothing other than being awesome LOL
- Finished my final money page
- Added Google Analytics tracking to affiliate links (Cheers Jay)
- Added different native ads to pages for testing
Failures
- Have not kept up with posting AT ALL. Site is only 19 posts deep!
From here on in I am going to focus on:
- Post 2x per week
- Build out a solid value based content schedule
- Build relationships with other authorities
- Create a kick@ss infographic for future promo campaign
- Build a list (optin forms are now live)
- Write an email campaign
- Work on CRO
- Add comparison charts to money pages
- Work on top 10 posts
- Add popup CTA's
- Add retargeting pixels
I'm sure there is more but we will work with that for now.

That seems like some real efforts, keep it going, Beau, congratulations, hoping to catch up with you soon.
You have set up some big challenges for yourself and I wish you all the best. Cheers, Michael
This is crazy useful Beau. I take a lot of notes from these updates. CRO, retargeting, and all the stuff you're planning to do. It's basically a checklist.
Questions: when you build a relationship with other authorities, does that go beyond simply commenting on other blogs? I'm sure it does. Would Twitter count?
Also, do you write the content personally? I remember when you started the site, you said you handled the top pages. If so, I can relate to being behind on posts.
I'm kinda stunned that a site so young can be this successful, and as you said, you have no passion for it. There's a lesson in that. I guess that's what experience does. All the more reason to keep going.
Q1. Yes blog commenting is a great start. Depending on the niche, interacting on other social media platforms can be good.
Q2. I have struggled to find a writer to match this niche which is why i struggled. I have just found another writer that may be a good match so fingers crossed it works out!
Agreed...I take my own private screenshots to review and I can erase them now as I've are copied and backed up my take on my understandings of your Metric Analysis!
