1. List Posts
You likely have heard this time and time again. Creating list posts are awesome for backlinks. Use a weird number and create a list that is brief, perhaps actionable and sub-divided out so that people will have to bookmark it and return. Additionally, it is so good that they will share it with others.
Tips for List Posts that Perform
- Actionable
- Obscure number of items
- Super informative
- Easy to scan down and has summaries or takeaways
I have several lists that I have created over the years that I still to this day will reference. Killer Headline Lists, Marketing Buzzword Lists, SEO checklists and more. Research some good lists within your chosen niche and conglomerate them and add some more. Simply create the best list within a sub-topic of your niche that no one has. This is incredibly powerful.
See how I did that?
I bet half the readers going over this training just read the header of this page and then scanned my tips list 1 through 4 and then jumped to number 2 without reading this paragraph. :-)
Here' an example - notice the number of shares that Samar obtained. Not too mention the plethora of backlinks from niche-related sites. Folks, this can vault your website into stardom fast!
Not bad, huh?
1. choose a niche
2. build a website
3. promote a product or service
4. make money
That's it! and 100% of the people who work hard make a living online.
Implying that those who don't make it, aren't working hard enough. That's easy or maybe they all aren't smart enough to grasp all the training all the time.
Clearly you state it takes more than that.
Frankly I'm overwhelmed with all there is do to be successful when at every turn there is this and that to do
and...
I highly doubt for most of the hundreds of ordinary folks who join WA that this training is duplicatable.
It is a very select niche that can benefit from this, mostly the tech saavy is my guess
I think I'm in the wrong place and was just meant to be a 9-5 slave
It is posts/training like this that makes me stop and think, why am I here?
This is so much work and it depresses the hell out of me, not encourages me.
I've spent over a $1000 on website building and I highly doubt I'll see any of it back just blogging away with a monetized site.
