  1. Well, since my account was closed due to health reasons a while ago, and I had to restart, I am finally back to a creative flow. I don't have as many sites up yet, but the one site I have been focusing on I have been enjoying doing and has been doing well so far.
  2. The Niche of the website is based on Wealthy Affiliate and the subject of online business in general and everything that surrounds that. My central focus is to funnel people to Wealthy Affiliate. My secondary focus is to help people with the various aspects of the business as much as possible. Some of the other areas of the business include Social Media and getting traffic from it, Social Media and Viral Marketing, Digital Marketing in General, SEO and Keywork Optimization. Pretty much an overview of what is taught here, but emphasizing that Wealthy Affiliate is the place to be if you really want to master it!
  3. So far, I haven't been developing the site that long, I have reached over 100,000 visitors this month, but not yet uniques and is not consistent.
  4. My plans for the next three months is to increase the conversion rate by 10-20%, by increasing unique , targeted visitors, not just random traffic.
  5. My goal for the next 6 months is to increase the conversion rate by 50-200%, by putting more money behind targeted traffic via Social Media and Google, Bing, Yahoo and PPC.

What is your best convert asset?

That depends on whether you mean on the asset development side or the advertisement side. Even know I build a website using Pro templates, I always use funnels within the offers so that I can capture the person info, in case they have no desire to enter their info into the Newsletter areas, and the conversion rate goes way up when you offer an exclusive, valuable bonus that can benefit them within the industry. Then once they go to the confirmation page from the front-end page, the asset automatically is sent to them or a link to download it, is sent to them. Then on the Thank You page, you set it up to redirect to the very offer that people signed up to you for more info, so they act immediately. (Scarcity timers are important, otherwise, people think they have time and forget about it.) Or, you can redirect to another offer that will complement the main offer that the opt-in funnel represents, and sell the initial offer through email marketing to the lead you captured in the funnel.

What are the assets I use:

1. Funnels/Landing Pages: Instabuilder 2.0, ClickFunnels, Optimonk (popup opt-in with exit recognition tech) - all WordPress plugins. I would never use ClickFunnels outside of WordPress, as it doesn't give you the chance to build true authority within the search engines, but has great value within its platform for lead magnets, sales and conversions with long-term customer life cycles.

So why not combine that with the best in the biz- WordPress. You don't combine, you add to it by using the plugin so it isn't the dominating CMS.

2. When I create an affiliate site I often use WooCommerce and integrate with my affiliate offers. This is best done by using Content Egg Pro and Affiliate Egg Pro, which allows you to search all the affiliate centres you are a member of to load it into your site in any format you are trying to achieve. Gone are the days where you have to do one affiliate product at a time manually; so instead of clicking buy, you click something like See It or Purchase Now, and it goes to the vendor's landing page or funnels for the product represented.

3. WordPress (crucial), and awesome hosting and an array of training and assets, which I only choose Wealthy Affiliate for that platform, as SiteRubix improves upon the performance and ease of use of WordPress significantly, which is only available within Wealthy Affiliate. Note: of course, the Premium Account is the only way to go for all of this, and the Premium Yearly Account saves you money.

4. I use both Yoast SEO and All-in-One Premium plugins for SEO, as Yoast has a better setup for SEOing an article, but All-in-One Premium has much more functionality and flexibility (perfect to compare and possibly use together.)

5. Now, capturing leads is crucial, so if you have a good lead magnet setup, such as a Membership Portal where info is given, Newsletter signups, ClickFunnels and Instabuilder 2.0 Pro are perfect for capturing people's info if done correctly.
6. From there, the best way to close sales and continue to follow up to make your prospects feel important by using Pro level email marketing to sell related products, offer coupons and deals, in order to gain more access to continuing to get what is necessary.

I hope that helps and if you had something specific in mind, let me know, it would be my pleasure.

PS - you can get the top WordPress templates with all sorts of cool functionality and tons of digital assets to help you to succeed, which they are on Envato Market, the top and best place to find all you need to succeed online, and Wealthy Affiliate has the training, step by step, to do it right, do it so that residual commissions build and build!

I hope that helps and is what you meant, if not, please feel free to message me! Thanks, Rod

Yes.. awesome
Marked as top ref
Thank you!
❤️

PS
I hope your health is ok now...

Your welcome, I've seen some of your awesome posts as well!

some very aggressive goals wishing you great success

Thank you, I feel like they are not right now, at one point, they were my primary focus, but I was falling back financially and realized that if I succeeded at this, I would have tons of time to achieve what I wanted to do, and have the financial backing to do so. Anyone can do anything if they can succeed here at Wealthy Affiliate, it is to me - Freedom. It doesn't just help you be a better person but motivates me to do more to achieve a greater level of peace. The sky is the limit when it comes to earning potential, it is just about doing it correctly. Any questions or specifics I would be happy to go through it with you. Look for my new sites. This one is getting there but not quite, but it only covers the best IM Niche products, services, Vendors (sellers that I promote), and it is called AffiliateThunder.com . Remember, it isn't done yet, but it is incredibly well setup layout and shows how WooCommerce can be used for Affiliate Offers.

Best of wishes on your road to success! You will succeed if you don't give up and follow the process!

Just realised, the 100,000 vistors was last month which was the first month while I was still building it. This month not as much, but is growing, and I adjusted some keywords based on some of your suggestions and got two referrals in two days. Thanks you!

Good to have you back.
100K visitors per month, this is a great achievement!
You're surely in the right path.
Congrats!

Welcome back Rod! You have been doing well so far and I hope your goals are met!

Thank you! Appreciate it! So, what if people have Ad Blocker, and I am telling them about Wealthy Affiliate but they can't see my banners and they go sign up through the main site, is their a way to combat that?

You can try this

Thank you so much, such an easy fix I would have never thought of, and it works to this day? Either way, I will start implementing this into all WA Banners. What about banners from CJ or Click Bank etc.?

Hi Rod, you are welcome back to this huge family of friends. I admire what you have achieved so far. Irv.

I spend hours building social media accounts, looking for a combination of low hangers and high traffic keywords for advertising, and love doing it!Ok so just checked, 50% returned visitors, 50% new vistors, and I am starting an Ad Words campaign today because despite large traffic, I haven't had many conversions, despite having a good Opt-in and I am personal aand everything. Any suggestions, I'd like to funnel more conversions, I really want to make that Vegas trip and I have a lot of experience in the business, it is clear I can get people to my site, what am I missing???

Unbelievable! Well done!

How can you do that to reach the high visitor.

I use the low hangers for pages, the huge traffics but still green for advertising

Keep on. Great aspirations!

Sounds like you should target more buyer keywords in your seo and use more words with buyer intent in your landing pages and reviews. An example long-tail keyword would be "start an online business for 100" What this keyword tells me is this person is willing to pay up to $100 so if they come to my site through something that says this then that means they are looking to buy and start a business. Hope this helps you.

That helps, because I understand how to do that and can implement immediately, thank you

Very good advice!

You can install a plugin to make it to where people have to turn off ad blocker to view your website or you can insert links throughout your content and you should be able to create your own banners with your affiliate links instead of using the wealthy affiliate banner codes. you will just have to use html to make the banners a clickable link. Also if you are using ad networks of affiliate networks many of them now have native advertising which allows many adblockers don't detect as ads.

Here's are a few old articles I found through google to help you with some of this:
