Think I've Just Realized Why My Website Making No Money ????
My biggest issue last year ~ I'd say was 100% collecting no leads for my email list.
I mean email marketing I reckon is HUGE for actually marketing products to people.
So I mean I use Elementor for setting up my lead generation forms and really think I've gone this whole time without realizing that I've been setting it up wrong.
Basically I've had no leads coming through to my Getresponse but just realized my elementor form submissions I've got over 1800 email addresses in there.
Mostly these are from my contact us page but definitely need to reassess things I think before moving forward.
WOW so much to do here - not even sure where to start lol
I mean I need to set my forms up right that's my biggest challenge at moment.
Elementor can be such a difficult headache at time ~ especially if you have Ezoic but can't help thinking this could be the game changer for me - so hopefully more to update soon.

Alex, there is a GetResponse plugin to your WordPress, you ought to check it out. Look for some tutorials. If you are a paid subscriber of GetResponse the plugin will work better because you need the API key to get it set up. Then it has instructions on how to get your email forms set up. I use GetResponse currently but thinking of switching another provider. It's AWeber. I feel their platform is more WordPress-friendly and cheaper. Also best for affiliate marketers. GetResponse is a bit complicated technically to get set up with the API key.
If you have relevant traffic, you can generate leads. If you have relevant traffic, you can also drive affiliate revenue as well! So you have lots of options there!
Honestly, Kyle really struggling - since the google update my SEO has falling right off a cliff. I've gone from 12k impressions a month and consistent commissions to under 100 impressions. I am trying to get things like my lead generation elements sorted and my UX but it's actually driving me nuts trying to figure these things out.
I need to I think actually get my site speed good and get myself in a position where I can maintain a steady flow of content but this stuff is making me obsess and till I get it sorted in some way I can't focus on writing and stuff its BS.
I hope so. Just one nightmare after another. Actually would be nice to just get back on with actually blogging and marketing. I mean yes I am still here after 3 years and I do want to believe that it will be this which gets me through but oh man all these technical hiccups really suck the life out of me. I mean I guess the list of 1800+ email addresses could be useful for something guess I just need to work out really what to do with them - I think my GetResponse I'm actually only paying for 1K so that's out the question but I don't know maybe I could make some use of this list of contacts somehow. They all seem related to my niche and it does seem like this submission list is going to keep growing as well.
I think that email list might be a benefit! Do you have an autoresponder? I don't yet, but if you do, those might be potential customers, unless I am missing something!

Yes, I do but only 1k contacts on my getresponse account.
I need to find another solution where I can add all these people and message them all - something free preferably. Like I could actually look at this list of contacts as a way to get into something like solo ads or something I was thinking
