Changed My Username!

I decided to change my WA username from Mucky123 to JamesLM for reasons that you can probably guess for yourself. The first name sounds a bit childish and the numbers make it look a bit unprofessional. So why the heck did I go by that name in the first place? Way back at primary school, I used to have the nickname 'Mucky' and for some reason I remember liking it - but somehow I don't share that same attitude now.So when it came to signing up for online games and so on, I went by this name and j

November Success: My First $500 Month!

Hi everyone! Today I'd love to share with you a big milestone that I've hit - $500 in amonth! :) Of course we all know that November is when the Black Friday promotions come to town and everybody goes shopping crazy. I think we all know what this means... affiliate HEAVEN. I've been in the affiliate marketing game since August 2014, when I came across Wealthy Affiliate at the age of 13, so it's taken me a fair while to hit this mark. During my first year online, I didn't earn that much at all -

Hitting a Milestone - 2,000 Sessions on My Site in One Day

Today I wanted to share a milestone I finally hit with my gaming website, Awesome Shooter Game Reviews, which I've had for over 2 years now.On October the 29th, I hit an all-time traffic record on my site for a single day, which broke the 2,000 session mark (2,001 to be exact). At the start of October I was barely raking in a quarter of this amount of traffic every day - so what caused the massive spike?Well, in the gaming niche that I'm involved in, topics become hot FAST, especially when a ne

Simple Trick to TRIPLE Your Amazon Commissions This November

Believe it or not, there's actually a way for how to increase Amazon commissions by up to 150% this November. Let me show you how.Amazon Associates is a fantastic program, due to the huge diversity of the marketplace. As a result, half of the sales you get might not even be what you're promoting, so you essentially get free commissions.It's also probably the most trusted marketplace in the world (and the most popular), so converting sales on Amazon is easy.These are just a couple of reasons why

Success with YouTube - 25,000 Total Views and some Extra Ad Income!

I'm a big gamer myself, and that is exactly what the niche of my website is revolved around. For those of you that are unaware, YouTube is exceptionally popular with gaming videos - in a sense, it's even more of a go-to place than Google for gaming guides and reviews etc.Therefore 8 months ago I decided to start a channel with a friend (as I knew I wouldn't have enough time to run it entirely myself). I know many others around my age that have channels, but are clueless when it comes to keyword

Traffic drop?

Well, I decided to transfer my site to WA because my other host was getting too expensive, and besides, the hosting at WA is supposed to be of the very highest standard, yes?After transferring my site... Well you can see for yourself what happened.This would haven't been too bad if I was only getting like 50 sessions a day. But prior to the transfer of my site, I was getting around 1000 sessions a day from posts that have ranked as a result of the authority I built for my site after the past ye

It's been nearly a year since I've written a blog post on WA.

I just took a look at my profile and was horrified to see that my most recent blog post at WA was back in March, 2015... Oops.Although I log onto WA pretty much everyday and have made huge amounts of progress with my site since my last post, I haven't had the time to interact with the community here anywhere near as much as I would like to.Just giving you guys a heads up that I'm still here (and here to stay) and I'm going to try and make it a habit to interact in WA a lot more than I have been

How to fix mobile compatibility issues? I'm in trouble.

I have a very big dilemma on my hands.... Today I received an email from Google Webmaster Tools saying the following: As you can see, Google has reduced my rankings on mobile devices which is really annoying, since I can't see a way around it. Quite evidently I don't use a responsive theme and most of you would suggest the simple solution would be to switch to a responsive theme, right? Unfortunately, with the theme I am currently using called 'GamePress', there are post types that are uni

Oh, it's my birthday... Guess how old I am?

Hey everyone, I hope you're all well and having a great day! I wake up today and realise it's the 22nd January... My birthday... I'm getting to the stage where I don't know if to consider them as good or bad things. Anyway, I though I'd have a bit of fun and see how old you guys predict I am.... You all have 1 guess and I'll let you know if you're right! The only clues you have is my profile description (which I haven't changed from the very day I got here) and my website if you need it (awesom

Happy New Year! - Made my First Sale!

Well today (yesterday technically) marked a very significant day in my internet marketing career, as I got my first sale! I got an email from Amazon saying that my Amazon Associates account had been confirmed - I was wondering, "Does this mean I've finally made a sale?!" You should have seen the look on my face when I saw that someone had purchase a $20 Wii U game through my affiliate link. The weird thing is, I didn't even promote it on my site. A little reminder of how effective huge retailer
