you'll notice I'm in a different
location here because I'm hanging out
with my buddy Graham we happen to be in
were sitting next to each other actually
I could turn there you can pop your head
in here just for a second and hey yeah
so Graham is in like the vicinity so I
came down to visit just for you know
work work together for a little bit and
he's going to answer some questions
later he was actually a student of my
course and we've just been geeking out
on internet marketing like all morning
long so we have cat on you you can hear
me thank you we have Brian from BC
fantastic and it always takes a few
minutes for people to join up here so
I'll say that I'm slightly like under
the weather
Graham and I had a couple beers
yesterday and we should be able to push
through and make this work but yeah I
was talking a little bit slower earlier
today and I continue to do that so Hugh
goes on as well what's up from Honduras
and then other Doug fantastic Alan's on
as well so I think Brian also cool so I
think well we'll get moving here because
I was just reviewing the slides and
there are 50 of them and we're going
over 17 tips if you are unable to stay
for the whole thing it'll hurt our
feelings but there is a replay you will

at your leisure and you know really be
able to you know dig into the details so
without without further ado and brian is
from toronto and allen and adam says the
beers will get you indeed indeed they
will so we'll see we'll see how this
goes and like I said Graham's gonna
answer some questions with us he's a
student of the course he's been in for
about a year and a cool thing he just we
were sitting here and he he was like hey
I'm gonna send you some analytics so we
have this really like sweet looking
graph of how his traffic has went up by
a like dramatic amount was like a
hundred X or something cuz I mean you
can't even see this scale in the perfect
graph at the beginning cool yeah so he
said 50% growth month over month and I
mean it's still seem well we'll look at
the graph later so that'll be at the end
I'm gonna go ahead and start sharing my
screen here and boom there we go
as I said this is 17 tactics on and
strategies to I think I lost the feed
there this this good old webinarjam
always keeps me guessing here so let me
try that again
and by the way if there are any sort of
tech issues if the video goes away if
the sound goes away let us know in the
chat other people may be able to help
confirm that there is a problem or not a
problem and I believe there's like a
refresh button so you can hit like
refresh and I think it reads syncs the
feed or something helpful but let me
know if there's any kind of issues as we
go so can you hear me already confirm
that and just curious who has a full
time job out there just let me know in
the chat and you know feel free to
converse amongst yourself as we're going
here so I'm Doug Huntington and I think
a lot of people do know me that's my old
dog there Brody and we have a we have a
new dog Brody died unfortunately I
should remove the pictures it's a few
people told me that they they're like
how we get
that when we see we see Brodie but you
know Georgie's over there sleeping and
it's all good anyway we're actually
fairly close to this Beartooth pass sort
of close to the national parks right now
where we're sitting but I'm the founder
of initial site project and I talk about
affiliate marketing and project
management and stuff like that and a lot
of people I think have seen some of the
other material YouTube channel the blog
and so on I do have the you know past
track record with niche sites coaching
other people guest blogging on like
bigger blogs and I have a PMP
certification this is sort of the why
should you listen to me section so I
actually have done a lot of these things
and helped other people do them as well
and I do see Sagna says you do have a 9
to 5 Doug had a job until 2 weeks ago
but now you're free and clear it sounds
like Adam does have a full-time job so
cool Doug what what did you do before
and what feel free to mention what your
gig is if you want to and next question
is whether you've created a site or not
and this sort of helps me like tailor or
this presentation so I could speak at
the right level depending on who's in
the audience so here's a handful of
places that have been featured and in
the last year was featured on social
triggers actually a couple times I
realized after I went in and took a look
I was on there a couple times so I put
this timeline in here for a couple
reasons one to remind me that there's
there have been ups and downs and like
sometimes everything sort of goes
sideways
however the other thing is a lot of
people a lot of internet marketers don't
mention that they've had periods where
they struggled and things went wrong a
lot of times they will just share the
highlight reel the most impressive like
headline that they could come up with
and they just make things sound easy
things are not easy things are very hard
and even when things are going wild like
you'll still have some issues or
challenges along the way
just keep that in mind and there's ups
and downs I won't read the whole thing
but there have been some some dramatic
like penalisation 's and stuff like that
Oh Adam Adam is actually in the course
so awesome thanks for for joining in
today and it's always hard to tell like
when we only have first names on here so
okay Q&A is at the end again there's a
lot of material in this presentation so
I'm gonna actually speed through it
pretty quickly but feel free to you know
ask questions along the way I probably
won't be able to see them until towards
the end but feel free to ask so you
don't forget and by the way before we
get moving into it so much
get rid of distractions so if you could
turn I'm actually gonna do it right now
I'm gonna turn the phone to like do not
disturb and on my machine to so when a
telemarketer calls me it won't interfere
with what we're doing here so yeah get
out of notepad take some notes and you
could go and you know research this
stuff a little deeper later if you have
you know more questions about a specific
strategy so number one and starts at
like a broad level so it's not just you
know change the color of a button kind
of stuff these are all encompassing so
number one get the right kind of traffic
with buyers keywords so if you do get
the right kind of traffic you won't have
to push so hard you don't have to have
so many like affiliate links on your
page you can really you know just know
that if they landed on your page that
they are interested in making the
purchase so let me give a couple of
examples and this is how the format is
generally going to work I'll mention you
know the point and then we'll look at
the like a specific example so some
buyers keywords are like the product
name and then review best and then the
product name what kind of product should
I get and here's some exam
right so kitchen faucet review best
kitchen faucet before we go on one that
I didn't add in here but this is one you
should write down is a product a versus
product B those are great because it's
like someone who is already so aware of
the the product line that they are
mentioning like two specific models that
they're trying to figure out which one
to buy
so a versus B that's a great one to like
go for next is targeting longtail
traffic that's low competition and as
you know I like the key word golden
ratio so if you follow the key word
golden ratio usually that'll you know
place you in the right sort of level of
competition especially for a younger
site if you try and go after stuff
that's too competitive you may have a
little bit of an issue especially with
the young site maybe you're still in the
sandbox
so there's a whole masterclass by the
way on the keyword golden ratio on
YouTube I worked on it with my friend
Alex from WP Eagle and the basic idea is
you're finding keywords that are just
generally underserved on the internet
and it's the kgr is the number of all in
title results divided by the local
monthly searches or LMS where the LMS is
less than 250 so because there's so much
material on that on the YouTube channel
I'll move quickly from from this one I
won't dwell on it too much and this is
how you search for the all in title by
the way so make sure you type in all in
title colon no quotation marks just type
it in like you see it here and then
you'll get some number at the top it
says you know it results or 180 results
or whatever so that is how you check it
and quick I guess quick note I have
heard you know people say when I check
the åland title multiple times or
different times a day or something
they'll get different values and stuff
and I usually just check once and then
just move on I barely
check again but I'm not sure what causes
that and obviously that could you know
throw off answers a little bit but like
I said I usually just check once and
move on and I would say if you're
getting results where you know it fits
in the kgr like just go with it
next use the International Amazon
Associates Program so in general if you
add if you give you know more countries
a chance to purchase through their
respective program you'll make more
money now there's a couple things to
remember some of the the I think they're
like 14 or 17 I can't remember how many
countries have the associate program but
these are the ones I would recommend
focusing on in general these are you
know countries we you'll be able to get
paid a little bit more easily I think
like India and maybe Japan you have to
have a bank account in that country so
if you don't have a bank account there
it could be a little bit problematic to
get paid but these are the ones to check
on it now just because you can't open
accounts in these countries doesn't mean
you should so you should take a look at
your traffic and figure out like are you
getting traffic from those countries if
you're not getting like much traffic
then I wouldn't worry about it you know
if it's just a small very small
percentage I wouldn't worry about it so
I would say if you're if you start
getting you know 50 visitors a day from
a particular geography that's maybe when
you would pay attention in this case
you'll see the green arrows that I've
highlighted there where there's a
significant number of traffic coming
from those three and like cumulative Li
so obviously there's a lot of traffic in
the first ten countries that are listed
here and 27 percent twenty seven point
eight percent of the traffic is coming
from the US but that also means that you
know when we look at those green arrows
it's like
thirteen and a half and then four it's
like 16 percent so 16 percent of the
traffic is coming from those other three
countries and what you'll be able you
know when you do the math I think it's
something like with sixteen twenty seven
so it's like you know something like
fifty percent of the traffic is coming
from other countries as well so gotcha
alright so apparently the video may be
frozen okay thanks everyone
all right let me see
you
it should be I think it only needs to be
okay are we back
I am I just made it back hello can you
hear and/or see me anyone hey Georgie
alright thanks everyone for your
patience with all these technical
difficulties
alright this this one will be a sloppy
one if I move it over to YouTube so
thanks everyone for your patience I'm
gonna try to share my screen again and
hopefully it won't screw up and you know
what I'm gonna turn off my webcam to see
if that will be a little bit less
bandwidth coming through all right
hopefully hopefully you'll be able to
see the screen check your traffic and by
the way if people just joined you can
you know get the replay later and watch
the first part so I think we're at the
check your traffic and this is just to
recap what I talked about you can enroll
in other associate programs but you
should definitely make sure that it's
worthwhile so if you're only getting
like one percent of your traffic from
somewhere and it's like under say 50
visitors a day or something like that
may want to just skip it and not worry
about it so there's I mean there's no
like real harm and applying or anything
but it's more like a waste of time if
you are not getting much traffic so I
would just focus on the ones that really
make a difference alright number for
call to action above the fold so this is
like probably one of the number one
things when I ought at someone's site a
lot of times they won't have an
affiliate link until you know 50 percent
through the article people skim people
are in a hurry and if you don't have a
call to action early a lot of times you
may miss just having someone click over
again if you have the right kind of
traffic you know they're actually
interested in whatever
reviewing or whatever the topic is so
feel free to add a call to action above
the fold I personally like to have them
like in the first like 150 or 200 words
usually a text called action like hey
are you in a hurry here's my favorite
pen that I'd like to use because it
works really well right so just
something like that and here is what you
know one of the spots where I'm gonna
give you an example so most of these
come from the wire cutter a few of them
are from other areas but they have a
call to action like in the first like
sentence or two there and quick call
back to one that we mentioned before
it's an IRC word right so best action
camera that's a buyer's keyboard and so
that is key to note there a lot of stuff
and by the way the wire cutter is one of
the sites that I studied a lot to come
up with this presentation and more on
calls to action so you have a lot of
opportunities to use like different
types of calls to actions so me
personally I usually stick to text call
to actions but you know when we looked
at the wire cutter we see that they have
several ways for a visitor to get over
to Amazon or wherever they're pushing
people so the button of course were the
green arrows the button in the image are
affiliate links but the the red text
they're the Yi 4k action camera that is
also one too so the wire cutter gives
the user a lot of different ways to get
over to Amazon in a quick quick note
like if you're on a if you're on a PC if
you're on an actual machine not a mobile
device then you hover your mouse over an
image and you can see that it's actually
a link but imagine you're on your phone
and you're just sort of scrolling on
your phone you don't know that an image
is actually a link right and unless I
mean you may try and like click on it
but you don't really know what's going
to happen so for me that's why I sort of
default
to the the text calls to action and it's
simpler for a Content Manager to you
know add text versus like a button or
anything else
moving on since I like those text links
so much I do put the text links
throughout the text you can you know
provide different calls to action you
can even put it like within a sentence
so again the wirecutter
an action camera post they are just you
know writing their material and whenever
they're mentioning the product it'll put
the link on the name so very
straightforward a lot of times i would
like to add some sort of curiosity make
it slightly more interesting like maybe
in parentheses you know see an image of
that's a little long but maybe it's like
see image on amazon in parenthesis next
to hero v black and now it's like oh
wonder what that that new one looks like
the hero of five so if you're gonna
introduce some kind of curiosity that
can entice people to click it number
seven is comparison tables so when you
look at best-in-class and people that
know what they're doing amazon is
obviously one of them and when you look
at some products especially something
like an action camera over an amazon
you'll notice they have very nice
comparison tables and actually that's a
good place to start from because if
amazon has figured out that it's good to
put you know certain features and
attributes for the technical specs in a
table comparing multiple items you could
probably you know get some ideas from
them now don't copy the table exactly or
anything like that and put your own spin
on it but it's a great starting point
another good place to look is just a
manufacturers website so if a
manufacturer like gopro has a lot of
devices products that are similar
there's overlap a lot of times it will
have a table so that you can
differentiate them across their product
line I am going so fast because there's
a lot of material so that's why I'm
trying to push it here
number eight recommend related products
so if someone again for example is
interested in an action camera is highly
likely that they need to buy some other
accessories as well and it's really you
know again we can just go to Amazon to
get ideas because why recreate the wheel
or like get stumped so you're gonna need
extra batteries you're going to need a
bunch of other stuff so just have a look
over on Amazon you'll see customers who
oh but yeah customers who bought this
item also bought and then you'll see a
bunch of stuff that you can also you
know either find keywords around or you
can just add like a little section at
the bottom just like Amazon does like
hey if you're interested in you know the
hero 5 maybe you want to take a look at
some extra batteries and a selfie stick
use high quality header images now I go
back and forth on this one but I'll show
you an example on baby gear lab so right
away we see this is for like a diaper
bag right so we see that it's a an image
that a person like actually took it's
not a stock image from you know just the
manufacturer or straight from Amazon
like that's out in the wild there's
trees back there it looks like they're
in the jungle or something like that but
the point is you're able to like quickly
identify that hey if someone is let's
assume I'm looking for a diaper bag by
laying on that page I'm like hey that's
the kind of stuff that I'm interested in
I see a water bottle there it's
relatable and it's high-quality now the
caveat that I'll mention this sort of
contradicts the call to action above the
fold and I actually like to have you
know text up front so if someone starts
reading verses like seeing the picture
but obviously baby gear lab outdoor gear
lab they have a tremendous amount of
traffic they know what they're doing as
well so it's really just you know you
could pick one or the other there's no
right answer
it's really kind of up to you but me
personally I usually don't do this huge
image at the top but it is something
that you know denotes quality on your
site number 10 don't offer too many
choices so we may think it's a really
good idea to you know give people as
many options as possible for like
everything but I can tell you like you
know when you walked in the cereal aisle
and you're trying to figure out what you
want to buy and there's like 400
different cereals and maybe you want
some sort of a you know Captain Crunch
for example and there's like five
different types of Cap'n Crunch and you
also have you have like the store brand
and a couple knockoffs also and it's
just confusing it's overwhelming when
really I just want you know the crunch
berries or something like that so anyway
don't offer too many choices and we'll
look at this diaper bag on baby gear lab
again so they have like reviewed many
more bags than just five but in the like
in the on one screen they only give you
five to choose from a lot of times if
you give someone too many choices like
they'll make no choice at all and it's
just a little confusing so I like to
limit it to usually five like in the top
table and then if I want to add other
products in there maybe I add them in on
the second table in on the bottom so
it's like you know if someone is reading
that far down in a post they're
obviously trying to really figure out
what they want another note on like not
too many choices the wire cutter has a
projector that they reviewed here and
you could see they only reviewed like
four models or so they mentioned a
couple others that they considered but
they narrowed it down to just four that
they actually put a review out on on
this particular post now a lot of times
in this case it was like the best
projector for
a specific use like a best projector for
your home theater best projector for
people on a budget and so on so if you
can narrow it down that way it really
makes it a little bit easier for someone
to make a decision so not too many
choices don't overwhelm the visitor next
is provide accurate reviews so when I
first got started writing these reviews
I basically I was writing it myself and
I think I made like every product sound
like it was a great one to have even you
know if it was a ten dollar product
versus a hundred and fifty dollar
product I'm like this one's great too
and you know I think it's fantastic and
everyone should own one and I said that
about like every single one of them and
some new writers may do that as well if
you don't give them some instructions so
if you provide accurate reviews and say
you know what the ten dollar item will
get the job done in a pinch but it feels
cheap or it looks cheap and the
materials like campy is good because
it's just cheaper right that's sort of
like authentic and yeah basically an
authentic more truthful review is gonna
provide like more credibility for your
site and even if you don't own the
products by the way a lot of times you
could read the reviews on Amazon and get
an understanding about you know whether
it's a good product or not if it's
high-quality you know the packaging like
the whole sort of experience right so if
you think about getting a product from
Apple they have like really high quality
packaging and in the box and it's a
little experience when you you know you
you open up the box and you peel back
the plastic and all that stuff like you
can get an idea from the reviews because
people write stuff like that or they
could say they may say though there were
no instructions it came in a plastic bag
and it looks like someone just threw it
into the container but it kind of works
right so those are the kind of accurate
reviews you can provide I guess like
need them unless you're buying the
product yourself and then you could
translate them into a more general sense
12 is include videos of the products so
this does this a couple good things now
number one I usually get videos from
YouTube you can embed almost all videos
on YouTube unless they're like there's
no embeddable option so by default
YouTube has like the embeddable option
on and a YouTube creator wouldn't have
to turn it off
intentionally to prevent that basically
people want you to watch their videos
and like they want you to embed the
videos so don't worry about any sort of
copyright stuff I don't say you shot the
video yourself or anything like that but
you can embed videos now the benefits
are one Google has a pretty good
understanding about what those videos
are about of course YouTube's part of
Google so they know what the videos are
about and it can build up some good
relevancy on the topic right so Google
knows that your your page your URL is
covering ballpoint pens because you
posted a video about ballpoint pens so
that's one benefit it gives you some SEO
relevancy and then the other part is if
you know someone restarts watching the
video they're spending more time on your
site that's a good thing so it's like a
positive metric if people go to your
site that Google is something and they
go to your site and they stay there for
a while that's a great thing to have so
no real downside to put videos on your
site although I will mention someone
asked in the last couple days about you
know if I put a video maybe the person
that owns the video would get the
affiliate Commission instead of me don't
even worry about that if it happens then
it's probably a very small percentage of
the time and the other part is honestly
if someone went to the trouble to like
follow that specific affiliate link like
the person that made the video
probably deserves the credit so all
right and by the way this is how you
find the embed code so click share
sometimes I think the the buttons are in
a different location now but if you put
you click on the share click on embed
you'll get a little code snippet and
then you could put that right into
WordPress next link to the Amazon review
pages so this is like one of my favorite
calls to action one of the reasons why
Amazon like does so well or at least
they grew elide is you could go and get
like honest reviews from like real users
who own the products that stuff has been
a little bit you know compromised as
people do like fake reviews or people
putting out there FBA products and
getting their family and friends to buy
it and leave reviews that are biased but
you can still get good information from
the reviews everyone that's purchased on
Amazon usually has that understanding so
here's what I like to do you click to
see owner reviews on Amazon and then
that is the affiliate link you literally
can link over to the like the review
page and they land right on it it's an
affiliate link and they're cookie for
you all right
use nest of lists so to make this a
little easier you can just go to Amazon
again and get ideas there so I like to
have a look at like the editors picks
and you can I just arbitrarily chose
this like whatever this home where stuff
so they have wall mirrors decorative
pillows clocks so you could do this in
like any category and there's going to
be some editors picks and I think I
picked mirrors here and there are a
hundred and twelve results for like
editors picks of decorative mirrors
right so you can go pretty pretty niche
in this area and get editors picks and
then you can
you know maybe filter on price or it
looks like most of the reviews are going
to be pretty darn good their editors
picks after all so they probably
wouldn't find bad ones and then after
that you could just you know pick
however you want to choose the pitcher
site in a way that fits your site so a
deals page so a lot of times there's
like a daily deal going on for you know
several different items it could be a
little to be honest with you it could be
a little overwhelming if you're gonna
you know try and do this very often but
maybe you do like Friday deals and you
check it out on Friday
you put the deals in and then you can
sort of attract people to check out
stuff that maybe is discounted now what
you can do is sort of like during
holidays like Father's Day is coming up
here in the US you can actually like you
know find the deals for Father's Day or
Mother's Day Black Friday
fill in the blank you can sort of get
ahead of the curve and publish those
deals pages so it's like deals for
Father's Day gifts that sort of thing
now if that's a good keyword or not I
don't know but if you take a look at
stuff that's discounted everyone likes
to get a deal so it could be a way to
help encourage people to you know make
that purchase and this could be if you
have an email list this could be a good
thing to do where you push people to the
Friday deals page and you send that out
say every Friday and if people are
interested I mean they have to sign up
for it they have to be they have to be
good emails that they care about but
that would be a viable option to utilize
an email list and some people you know
information that they're that they care
about all right next is conduct a be
testing use it using a dedicated tool so
there's a lot of caveats in this this is
an advanced one and in general I don't
recommend people try and get into a be
testing if you use a dedicated tool a
lot of times it's very expensive however
Google
has a tool called optimize it's in
Google Analytics had people use that by
the way and Thomas I see your question
I'm going to come to it at the end has
anyone used optimize so I played around
with it but it's basically an a/b
testing tool that you have like a
front-end editor and it general it's a
little bit harder to use than some of
the other dedicated tools like visual
website optimizer or Optimizely but it's
free and I think in general you know you
can test headlines you get test button
color stuff like that
now it's something you could do if you
have a lot of traffic the hard part with
a be testing is to get any kind of
meaningful data you have to have a like
a tremendous amount of traffic and you
have to run the test for a while so on a
site that I was working on for project a
white hat if people are familiar we
actually had enough traffic to try you
some a/b testing and we were paying like
two hundred and fifty dollars a month to
try and something like that it was more
expensive to try and do some AV testing
but we ran into the issue that it was
kind of hard to get a good definitive
results based on the amount of traffic
even though we had quite a bit of
traffic and at the end of the day a B
testing is like a full-time job you have
to continually tweak and test and most
of the tested you are going to fail so
if you do most of the stuff right and
points you know one through 15 you
should be in good shape and dedicated
testing isn't really necessary
it's very rare that you're gonna be able
to like change the color of a button and
then like grow your income by 50% that
just doesn't happen
so if you see studies on it or specific
one-off case studies usually it's not a
repeatable thing otherwise everyone
would just use like red buttons or
whatever color is the best so a lot of
things vary and in general don't worry
about a/b testing but it is a tool that
you could use maybe testing headlines as
a valuable thing to do
all right number 17 increased your trust
and credibility with your about page so
this is not going to like directly like
improve conversions and a lot of people
may not take a look at your about page
but if you have a good about page that
does provide some information like why
you started the site what why you're why
you're sort of an authority enough to
start the site and by the way it could
your authority may just be I'm really
interested in ballpoint pens and I love
to write I've been writing my whole life
and if that's the case then like that's
good enough right an interest and like
you're studying and trying to do
research like usually that's enough so I
actually have a few videos on YouTube
where talk about the about page and just
the stuff that you may want to include
there so have a look at those videos if
you want more details but in general you
know it's it's better to have like some
details of like why you started your
site why you're qualified and what you
want to you know help people with versus
just hey I decided to start a site on
pens I hope you find it helpful right so
don't do that it's not that was good
alright quick notes questions are coming
up and five-figure niche site is a
course that I developed over the last
couple years I've had a lot of students
go through it over time and sitting with
Graham today who enrolled like last year
and I think we're gonna because of our
technical difficulties I think I'm gonna
I'm gonna try to remove the I'm gonna
try to remove the microphone and see if
this works without like exploding so
we'll see how it goes actually you know
what maybe maybe we could just set the
microphone down here can people still
hear me right now let me know I'm moving
the microphone so let me know if you can
hear me so cool thing here is the course
was created with
proven principles techniques and
strategies okay people can hear me
excellent and we're gonna you'll see in
a second I have the headphones on the
table so we're gonna try not to we had
to move them or touch anything and just
speak loud and clear but here's the cool
thing gram enrolled in the course this
is a screenshot of his traffic he just
pulled this a little bit ago and I'm
gonna I'm gonna let you remember this
but it's a nice curve of growth and
basically he enrolled in July of 2017
right here and then he's been doing the
coursework and at this point Graham what
kind of traffic are you are you getting
so this is my first first site here we
go well probably testing testing coming
in loud and clear about about 40,000
people okay a month all right so went
from generally like no traffic
absolutely and I guess Graham you you
were a premium level student so I
remember we looked at your site and I
was like how much traffic it was from a
previous project that he was working on
but in essence he he was able to like
build up the traffic over time through a
lot of like work of course and and I see
Chris you took the course and you say
it's worth it thanks for the shout-out
on that I agree so at this point we're
just gonna do Q&A so like I'm not
pushing the course today I'm just
mentioning it because people do ask
about it
Thomas I see you had a question before
so I you can ask questions about
whatever you want it's great if it's
related to the conversions and stuff but
will will feel anything
so Thomas says you've been using the
WordPress add media
in linking to the YouTube URL know that
this should be fine that's totally fine
there's a lot of different ways to do it
in fact I think if you just paste in
like YouTube URL like I think WordPress
like automatically like changes it up so
I'd like to say something oh yeah sure
if that's cool um I just want to like
remind you guys that it's so easy to get
like especially when you're new to get
bogged down
unlike the you know Oh should my buttons
be blue or red
you know oh should I have you know what
should my side banners look like like
this industry is amazing but it takes a
lot of time and a lot of like effort
obviously but like just free like for
the new people out there just like take
a deep breath slowly work hard on it
like every day this site and dog will be
the first to tell you my first site like
was in a horrible niche because I had no
idea what I was doing and I set it up
before I met Doug it was designed super
poorly but like over time you learn this
huge basket of skills that is affiliate
marketing and like if I can do it like
literally literally anyone can do it but
it takes time like and most people give
up within those first few months because
they don't see like immediate results
but just like take a deep breath as long
as you keep moving forward you cannot
fail but understand that it's gonna take
at least for me it took like six months
to see some results for other people
it's quicker for other people it's
longer and yes that's my rant no now
that I think all great points and I
think I mean I'm just thinking of your
your site I looked like it was like from
2010 or so yeah like it was terrible but
the thing is
I think as long as you're like like you
said as long as you're trying and like
you're moving forward you're working on
it each day or at least like a few times
a week right people get busy over the
summer or the winter or whenever like
holidays are coming around as long as
you can like come back to it and do a
little bit a lot of times what people
run into an issue way this'll work hard
on it for like two months and they're
like oh there's no traffic and then they
stopped if they're lucky they'll come
back in like six months and realize oh
crap
now there's traffic and then you know
once you're out of the sandbox so yeah
good points and I see a cursor says you
mean I may need you to clarify this
question I'm not sure I follow it so
what can you suggest that top 10 top 20
articles which bring in traffic is only
informative and then the conversion rate
is really low it's a ten month old
website you're getting 10k visitors per
month but some negative SEO headed into
5,000 per month so you're saying what
can I suggest so are you asking about
the conversion rate being really low or
yeah can you clear keys rephrase that
I'm sorry Eggers I just don't follow do
you follow exactly okay I and one thing
figures I know you sent in an email
again I'm working on the answer but one
question that you did ask is how can you
get out of the sandbox sooner so the
best way is just so like make it past
the six months right to be honest with
you there's some stuff that you can try
but it's inconclusive if it'll actually
work the people that I've seen that have
been able to get out of the sandbox
quickly usually they get a they're
getting a lot of links usually to their
home page maybe like 40 to 60% of the
links to the home page with like branded
or sort of generic anchor text and when
I say a lot I'm talking like you know 50
per month in there for a couple months
and then maybe a hundred and fifty per
like they're getting a lot of links so
it's not just in general that's a really
hard thing to
or a very expensive thing to do so yeah
there's really no shortcut but once you
get through the once you get through the
six months like growth happens fast so
Eggers I know in the details of the
question that you send me you're doing a
ton of work it looks awesome and I think
if you keep your you know keep the gas
down you keep doing what you're doing
like your growth after you get out of
the sandbox is going to be like
exponential it will take off yeah yeah
and there's no I mean people asked asked
that all the time and again there are
some techniques that you can try but
they don't always work and at the end of
the day it's like just you know start
the site keep moving forward the more
work you do the more it's going to come
through at the at the end okay and then
Brian says I wanted to get your input
and insights on using tables above the
fold and how it might translate on both
desktop and mobile track the traffic
good or bad add lots of details showcase
minimal features hide on mobile blah
blah blah what do you think I'm petting
at the dogs down here she's got her
belly belly out to be honest Brian like
I am NOT the best at like kind of
tracking like doing like the a/b testing
like like Doug was talking about my
personal philosophy with this stuff and
I know it will differ from Doug's is
like make the content look as great as
it can use use the plugins add add the
the tables or whatever but don't like
don't overthink it like a lot of people
there's this phrase call or this
expression done is better than perfect I
think it's something like that like my
personal philosophy is like get as much
great content as possible like I don't
know man like look on like look on your
phone if it looks bad
remove it but like it this kind of stuff
is usually not make or break yeah so
there are only so many hours in the day
so like I wouldn't worry about stuff
like that
I like I try to worry more about like
the big-picture stuff because at the end
of the day like a lot of content a lot
of good backlinks that's what's gonna
make you money yeah so in my input
tables above the fold I don't I don't
know um you know at that point you're
good yeah I don't know I usually don't
do that I'd rather have copy draw
someone in to the post so now that's not
to say you couldn't have a sentence and
then the table but if you have the table
like right away you lose the opportunity
to like draw them in now as far as like
desktop and mobile yeah the only way to
know is like take a look I think as far
as like adding a lot of details versus
fewer you wanted to display well you
don't want it to be like scrunched up
and look crazy so we'll just get that
out of the way I would look at the
tables on Amazon and see if they are
putting a lot of detail in there so the
one that I showed before for the gopro
hero cameras there was a decent amount
of detail there's a lot of technical
specs that people care about so that's a
great way to think about it and just go
look and see like what do people care
about versus say like oh i guess like a
