In 3 Years I Have 390 Review Posts Promoting Wealthy Affiliate.

When I joned Wealthy Affiliate 3 years ago and decided to tackle the "make money online" niche, the threshold for starting to see results was 300 posts...

My review posts promote Wealthy Affiliate.

Fast forward 3 years and it's changed to 400 posts...

I've worked very hard for 3 years on a part-time basis creating review posts with some personal development posts mixed in to reach that 400 posts threshold.

At this point my review posts alone number 380. I have another 80 posts related to personal development that also promote Wealthy Affiliate.

However, instead of seeing small, incremental increases in activity and potential sales, I've seen decreases.

I'm not sure what's going on, but obviously somethings not quite right here...

I use AIOSEO (I don't have AIOSEO Pro) and I went through every single blog post to make sute they wene all optimized.

All of my blog posts look like the screenshot below:

ALL of my blog have similar scores between 93 - 100

So regarding optimizing my blog posts, it seems I've done the right thing.

However, when I go rummaging through Google Search Console, the stats I see are not encourging.

For example, the screenshot below shows that from 2/6/21 through 5/5/21 I've only had 294 total web search clicks:

When you look at the coverage as well, the stats for my blog aren't promising as the screenshot below shows:

Let me say this: I am not familiar with reading every aspect of Google Search Console, however, in light of the poor performance ofmy blog I certainly need to do so.

Also, according to Search Console, my blog's "average position" is 44.3.

At that rate, I'll be flipping burgers at some fast food joint if this doesn't improve relatively soon!

When I look at Page Experience on Search Console from the screenshot below, the stats on my blog are almost non-exsistent.

It's even more depressing when I look at my blogs mobile stats.

Regarding "Page Experience On Mobile" this is what Search Console Has To Say:

This is all I get out of almost 400 review posts???

Here are the "Coverage Details" on my blog from Search Console:

This is enough to make your head hurt!

My point is this: Are these stats indicating that something is seroiusly wrong with my blog or am I making much to do about nothing???

Could Duplicate Content Be An Issue Or The Use Of Too Many Images?

When I say duplicate content, this is what I mean:

I have a number of review posts that deal with multi-level marketing, and near the end of the post I usually feature stats from the FTC on the difficulty of succeeding in a MLM.

It's a list of 16 bullet points outlining the problems with MLM's.

I've used the same stats on most of my blog posts dealing with multi-level marketing.

However, when I ran these articles through Copyscape before publishing, some of them got flagged as duplicate content from my own blog.

I got around that by switching the bullet points around so they're in diffrent order; after I did that it passed Copyscape.

Nonetheless, could that be a issue with Google?

Also, when I look at the blog posts of WA members who have successful blogs in the "make money online" niche, I've noticed that they use very few images.

I've used a lot of images in my blog posts , probably more than the average blogger.

So I'm starting to wonder if I've used too many images and if that's having an adverse affect on my blog.

However, when I look at SiteHealth on the WA interface, this is what it says:

According to SiteHealth, my blog is doing very well...

I really am at a loss to explain this!

The bottom line is I'm not sure what Is going on!

What On Earth Is Going On?

At this point, I cannot understand why my blog is performing poorly according to Google Search Console.

Does the fact that I have not finished the Affiliate Bootcamp; presently I'm at 41 %, have anything to do with my blogs performance?

For those who meed to see it, my blog is BIG Online Profits

I've been focused on creating content so I can hit that 400 post goal.

However, I don't see the connection between not finishing bootcamp and why my Search Console stats are so abysmial.

Similarly, I could be complete WRONG and I'm having problems because I didn't finish bootcamp before writing all of these blog posts.

Also, every post I've created I've personally run through Copyscape to check for duplicate content.

Everything I've published on my blog has a clean bill of health from Copyscape.

Nonetheless, I just get a sense that something is not right, and my Google Search Console stats say the same thing.

What's frustrating is as close as I am to 400 review posts, my blog should be steadily improving - both in traffic and in potential sales.

What I Need From The WA Community

Frankly, at this point I need knowledgable WA members to help me understand what is going on with my blog.

I need help from WA members to figure out what I'm doing wrong.

If any of you in an attempt to help me feel the need to send me a PM, please do so!

If you want to do that, please send me a PM.

The purpose of this blog post is to reach out to any WA members who can help me understand what's going on.

Also, others who read this post may benefit if they're having similar issues.

I have over 2 years invested in this, so this is very serious to me.

Everyone in my family thinks I'm crazy for trying to set up an online business and make money online.

I don't want them to be proven right!

Over the past two years I've had to endure tremendous critisism sticking with Wealthy Affiliate, so this is not some casual request for assistance.

I would be deeply grateful to anyone who can help me set matters straight.

I know all of you are very busy in these challenging times.

However, If I don't get some understanding of what's going on, I'm done - finished!

Thank You in advance for your help and your patience,

Howard
