I am creating a new site, in Dutch, kind of an experiment. While the first blog post isnt even ready google already indexed the affiliate disclosure and such, no need for that

Indexing just means it's been added to the database. It's not about to get ranked. Don't worry about it. Just get on with more important stuff.

I've answered you on the forum!!! Hahahahahaha!!

You don't have to worry about deindexing these, but if you really want to...

Go to Google Search Console, in the left-hand side menu you'll see INDEXING, and one of the subcategories is REMOVALS, click on that, and then click on the NEW REQUEST red button and add the url.

But, as I say, there's really no need to deindex those articles, doesn't really make a difference one way or the other.

all right thanks! I was just wondering, because all of that talk about 'site wide classifyer' (or however you guys call this in English lol), these types of posts are not helpful and wear everything down?
Anyway, see you on the forum lol

Hi all,

It is very hard to find information outside of my "English bubble", here and on social media, as I always look things up SEO-wise and such in English.

So

I think one thing to keep in mind would be if your results for a dutch search term are the same as they would be for someone, say in the Netherlands. I think Google takes into account your location, your search history, etc. when showing its results. So while you may not see much competition for a dutch phrase, that same phrase may be much more competitive in another area where they speak it predominantly.

I'm not for sure on this at all, but it might be something to look into.

And I think English is by far the leading language spoken globally when you consider second-languages. Most all of the world teaches English as a second language and in lots of global industries like aviation, etc. it's mandatory.

But I do like the thinking outside the box to gain a competitive advantage. Nicely done!

Well, as for the dominant places. The thing is that dutch is spoken in the Netherlands, and in the north parth of Belgium, we are their actual neighbours. Belgians dont seem to buy a lot of stuff from Belgian stores,.as I think that no one here even knows about SEO at all lol!.so belgian stores we're not found in google.be

The biggest sale stores online are here stores like bol.com, which is an actual Dutch store, selling all kinds of products like amazon in the us , bit people dont really buy often on Amazon here and amazon.nl and amazon.be ,, both are pretty new and hardly used. Although they have departments in Europe.
Long story short, it's complicated lol.

Theres only one more dutch speaking.country and thats the former colony of the netherlands: Suriname

In my country and several other european countries, english isnt always the second language teached in school you know.
In Belgium we have three official languages: Dutch, French and German. The first 2 mandatory , and english is only third. . Same in switserland where theres 3 languages as well,. The netherlands have german as a second i think, etc. Not sure about France or spain or italy. Spain and italy defenitely not, spend my.teenager holidays there lol, couldnt communicate at all.with the boys hahaha
But what I mean also, we do our research in our own language and we read reviews and travel stories in our language. And we have our own affiliate compagnies like boll.com and booking.com
If 10 dutch people buy 10 mini kits per day from my site in dutch , that is still beter then one american per day buying one from my english site, no?
I'm gonna try 😊

The classes you gave on building a new site with the hubs and such and building logo with Ai, now comes in handy again..Been forever since I build one. Nice series there, thanks! ( see, I can be positive haha). Untill something else upsets me , wait out the next storm 😅
(Refering to last KYles vlog lol)

Hi Lizzy

I’m just following this thread since I’m curious to find out more.

I speak Italian, so that might be a possibility, although I believe English is the most profitable language on the whole.

Frank 🎸

Well, I actually think that any other language can be profitable, because in the miniature and dollhouse world, for example, there are TONS of Dutch people joining Dutch Facebook groups, for example, and they are very active in that niche, especially in the Netherlands.
Also for my other niche, the Dutch people are EVERYWHERE in Africa lol! And they are the most persistent campers and overlanders in the world, I think hahaha!
(if you travel anywhere in Europe also, you will always see a dutch camper on the highways).
One time we were in the middle of nowhere in Slovenia, in a very small town, what do you know: Dutch tourists hahaha!

Plus, there is way less competition overall from other bloggers, although this is a very 'small' language, not spoken by as many people, but still.
I would prefer even to write in German for both niches, but that's too hard haha!
The Dutch and Germans are also very active with lots of Etsy stores in the miniworld.
So at first glance, I was thinking like you: more people talk English than Dutch, but the conversions could be actually quite high I would think!

( the most spoken language in the world is also Chinese, by the way, followed by Spanish ;-) , and only then English )

Lizzy
keep rocking!

That sounds great, Lizzy! 👍😎

I’m considering the difference between Italian popularity and online traffic for the guitar niche vs actual conversions, compared to English.

Frank 🤘🎸
