Has anyone heard about the details for SAC month 6? Month 5 ended on Nov 15th.

Hi I think this will help you.

Thank you so much!

I'm lost, what is SAC month?

I want to know too so I searched and saw some past correspondence about Super Affiliate Challenge. Thinking that's what it is, but not sure and still don't know what that is.

Maybe someone can clarify this for us???

It's the Super Affiliate Challenge some of us started 5 months ago.

So I was writing a post today and found that I was using the term Affiliate Marketing frequently in my post. The post keyword did not have words Affiiliate Marketiing in it. I

Great question

I'd like to know the answer to that myself. Thanks for asking that question.

Just try to write naturally, Michael.
Everything else will fall into place.
Are you nice to Google?

Paul.

From my understanding, when we use a keyword to write a post, it is in the hopes we rank for it with Google. BUT Google will have us rank for a ton of words relevant to our post and what someone is searching for. Google doesn't think about what 'keyword the post is targeting'. Google presents the post to whatever query a searcher might ask, no matter WHAT keyword we're using.

It doesn't matter to Google what keyword you are targeting, if it doesn't answer that question, it'll bring up your website to answer a different question.

So while using affiliate marketing 4 or 5 times is repetitive, Google doesn't think anything about what keyword or keywords we are trying for. Likely, it will show up for both your keyword you are targeting and affiliate marketing (though probably way down the pages as that's a competitive niche).

Google also wants to answer people's searches and we shouldn't be writing for Google.

So I say, don't worry about it SEO wise. Just because we target a keyword doesn't mean Google will rank us for it. It might rank us for 5 other different ones. We can rank for more than one keyword. And saying Affiliate Marketing a zillion times won't make your original keyword phrase invisible or anything. It is still there. Does that make sense?

But if it is a TON of times in too short of time, readers might find it too repetitive to be interesting. :)

hey hi marvelous MIchael -- great question and was just about to say -- check the good ol' thesaurus until I saw your words 'affiliate marketing' ... yes, would say to try to vary it somewhat as the audience may find it rather 'repetitive' .... if using a term frequently -- could say something like -- A.M. hereafter will refer to Affiliate Marketing OR Affiliate Marketing (AM) from an editorial perspective ....

if it's well interspersed through-out your post, then, is likely ok ...

just off the top thoughts on it ...

i like to see it from a reader's perspective and that usually gives me the answer ...

hope that helps you a wee bit -- enjoy an incredible awesome day! ...

cheerio ... :)

Hi! Thanks for the ideas. I was trying to think of other words to use. Abbreviations is a great idea.

Thanks!

*** wonderful! ... you're most welcome -- happy to be of help! ...

... all the best, cheerio ... :) ***

Interested in seeing the answers myself. It would seem that would be picked up as a keyword.

Frequently used words in posts, good, bad, does it matter?

Just curious if anyone as heard of or used a writing tool called INK? Someone left me a comment about it on one of my posts. It appears to integrate with WordPress as well. I h

No I have not

Hi, Michael.

No, I had not heard of Ink prior to your question.

What does Ink Do and what will it do for me?

Do they have an affiliate program?

Paul.

Thanks for the info.

I'm looking at it.

Cool... Let me know what you find.

I will, but it may be a while

Not used or heard of it but I'm over there now and will have a look through. Always worth a look. Thanks Michael

Look interesting to me too...

It looks interesting. No I have not tried it or heard of it. It might be a good test.

No not heard of it, but looks interesting.

I just tried it and I think that it is not that good, it would just give me a headache, for example, I wrote a test post on my test site and it told me that the first paragraph is hard to read, which would mean that I would have to rewrite it, which gave me a headache. I deliberately started a paragraph with a lower case letter and it didn't pick up on that, also I underlined a title and when I published the post on my test site the underline had vanished.

Hi Simon,

Thanks for trying it out and giving your feedback. I already use Grammarly to catch a lot of things. If it's only doing stuff like that it doesn't sound like it would be of any benefit.

Did you test anything having to do with SEO?

Thanks,

Michael
