Increase Your Earnings By 5000% In One Year!

Increase Your Earnings By 5000% In One Year!

Ok. This might sound like a mild exageration but its not. Especially if you're new to making money online.

This is EXACTLY how much my site has grown over the last year. As a matter of fact, last February (2018) was the first month that I really started to put work into this particular site.

Here's the facts.

Last February my site made $10.

This February it made over $500!

There's more. I can bet that it could have even made more than that if I had actually been working on it for the past...idk...6 months?? If you read my last post I talked about the many set backs that I had which kept me from working on my site as much as I would have liked.

What I've learned from 2018 is that the most important thing that you need to be is consistent.

Here's How I Increased My Income

  1. Research quality keywords
  2. Write quality posts that include the keyword no shorter than 1,000 words. Typically posts exceed 1,500 words.
  3. Publish two articles per week
    1. One article was promotional
    2. One article was non-promotional BUT points to the promotional post of the week or another one that is already written.
      1. Note: Throughout the article there are several well placed CTAs that reference other articles where appropriate.
      2. You should always have a main CTA at the bottom of your post.

The Difference Between Promotion and Non-Promotional Content

Promotional Content/Articles include affiliate links and are directly selling something to the reader. I typically do 'Top #' of the product. I've seen others write about it and Dylan Reiger has a guide but you will have to look for it yourself as I don't have the time to dig it up right now. I just remember reading it not even realizing that I was doing the exact same thing but had come up with the idea myself, lol. So you know it works!

You can click here to see his blog.

Non-promotional Content/Articles support the promotional material. They can be anything from how the reader can solve their problem with the product(s) to a recipe and more. Anything that has to do with the product, how to use it, how it solves a problem, etc.

At the bottom of ALL non-promotional posts I include a button and CTA that points to a promotional post. Here's some examples:

  • Promotional Content: Top 10 Joigging Strollers
    Non-Promotional Content: Guide to Exercising with Kids
  • Promotional Content: Best 5 Gaming Monitors
    Non-Promotional Content: Best Gaming Setup for Beginners

If you have trouble figuring this part out please leave your questions in the comments below. I prefer the comments because it helps to add value for others who will likely have the same question. But if you are shy or don't want others to see you can message me also :)

So if you are new or starting a new website, I hope this has helped you see the potential of what you can accomplish in a year. I've seen lots of people posting about making upwards of $1,000/mo in a year on their sites so know that you can definitely accomplish better results than these.

It doesn't take a fancy website but it does take these three things:

  1. Consistency
  2. Quality Content
  3. Consistency

Also, I've seen a lot of people bash others who share their own content. I share my own content and it does make a substantial difference in the amount of earnings you make in a month. I have social media accounts/pages for each of my websites including the one I mention here. Your old content is valuable so keep sharing it even while you are creating new content or if you don't have time to create new content.

Hope this helps!
