A Quick Progress Report Before Black Friday Kicks In
It is almost mid-week and Black Friday is soon here. Maybe there is a chance to see some commissions?
I restarted my MMO website, and have been working on several other website projects since the beginning of October, three of them are mine and one is for a client.
Of the three site I have, one is a site that is 2 1/2 years old. It has been left alone for about 1 1/2 year. Currently I am updating all the articles on the site to be inline with current trends, cleaning up spelling and grammar errors as well as affiliate links. The website is in the pets niche (dogs). The target audience is located in the Nordic countries, primarily Norway.
What is interesting with the site is that it is constantly generating organic traffic. It is receiving about 60 visitors each day, that stays and read some of the articles, even if it has not been updated for a long time.
The article that attract most visitors has the seed keyword "anxious dogs". There is another article which s about crates for dogs to be used in cars, which is in the second place in terms of popularity.
The other two websites are two completely new websites, one in the pets niche (dogs) aimed at the US market,.
A couple of articles were published last week and I have a couple of more articles ready to be published before the current week is over. The site and the articles have been indexed by Google.
The third website is in the MMO niche, primarily geared towards Wealthy Affiliate, with blogging as a business model and how to do it, sharing my journey and what I learn as I progress.
The wbesite is indexed, the articles, three of them, are indexed. I have a couple of comments on one of the articles as well. The articles were published last week.
Currently, I have two more articles in the pipeline to be published by the end of the week.
Another activity is creating email swipes for my email list, both a welcome sequence of 7 days and swipes for a nurturing series.
Finally in therms of training, I am following Jay´s class related to Topic Clusters and Pillar Posts, pluss Tim McKinleys Email Marketing series.
Have a great productive day and week!

It’s wonderful to hear of your progress, Roy! Sounds like your plans are really starting to materialize. You’re doing a great job. Keep succeeding!
Susan
Thanks, Susan. At last, after some much-needed time off, it is good to get back on track with the original plan adjusted to where I am today.
Roy
Wow, Roy! You are getting some exciting results, and are doing more exciting things even now! Well done!
Jeff
Thank you, Jeff. The awesome community at WA is one of the reasons I am getting back on track and focusing on the one thing that generates traffic on my blogs, writing content 🤓.
Roy
Roy, it is SO GOOD to have you back and active with your business and in our WA community.
Well done!
I am having a good year with my online business and am happy with the growth of my boutique firm's website.
Thanks to Prince Partha's Potions, my writing has improved SIGNIFICANTLY and traffic to the website continues to increase.
It is helping my consulting and coaching side of the business.
2023 is the year for my WA MMO website and for "everything Amazon" - ebooks and FBA.
Phil(1944) is helping me with the ebooks and, (this was unbelievable!), a Writer/Publisher/Coach from my Eben Pagan coaching community has "gifted" me her entire writing and publishing training resources for free.
I am still in shock and feel so grateful.
It all comes together for me in 2023.
Wishing you continued success. 🙂

It has been a joy to follow your journey and see how you have followed the training and classes available at WA, as well as how you have implemented Partha´s potions.
I have said it before and I say it again, what you do and how you have shared every step of the way is a blueprint of what we all should model and fit our own business dreams.
Interesting what you say regarding Phil and what he is sharing of his knowledge. I am currently working on an Ebook as well, and, I am reading up on his blog posts and tutorials as we speak to learn his advice about Ebooks.
An "Amazon affiliate" website is in my plans for the next year too.
As I have restarted what I originally did as of October this year, I have adjusted my timeline and plan to work to reach similar outcomes as you in about three years' time.
What really "shook me awake" and made me refocus on the core activity, blogging and affiliate marketing that I set out to do in 2020, was doing a deep dive into what Yaro Starak has done since he started blogging in 2004.
The discovery of Yaro, lead me back to the awesome community in WA and also to the discovery of AWAI, which has contributed to keeping and solidifying the trust in blogging as an awesome way to create a thriving business online.
The possibilities to make a living starting with a blog are unlimited. But I have learned one thing, and that is to focus on one thing at a time and keep to a firm plan and timeline to not stretch myself too thin again.

Wow, Roy!
This is a goldmine of tidbits to guide us!
(1)Rudy(1) is going through the same pathway currently.
Everything happens for a reason, I think, and never before its time.
This saying always resonates:
"When the Student is ready, the Teacher appears."
I believe that my Cassi Of Troy brand is strong enough now.
It has been around for over 3 years and at this stage, stepping up should be a lot easier.
Many stories to be written and shared and even more experiences to guide others.
We will never run out of opportunities, that is for sure. 🙂

Good morning Roy,
Thank you for your blog post.
It sounds like you are moving your business forward, which is great news. I haven't seen Tim's email series yet, something that I want to follow up on, it sounds like a good one!
Harri slowly and never stop learning; that is so true! Consistency is also key!
Have a great day.
