Accelerated Mobile Pages AMP for Affiliate Sites #Best Education Page #Online Earning

in this interview I talked to Dave Fox

and we discuss accelerated mobile pages

or am Dave has some experience with amp

and I have none so it was an interesting

conversation and hopefully after you

watch it you'll have a better handle on

whether you need to look at amp or not

and maybe you know put it on the back

burner for a little while so let's get

to the discussion now hey what's up it's

Doug Huntington here from niche site

project I'm here with my friend Dave

looks like a rock star having a

Frappuccino there or something

mango smoothie cool so some people may

be newer to the channel they don't know

you so you and I work together a little

bit a few years ago I helped coach you a

little bit with some of your early

Amazon affiliate sites and you've been

doing it Sencha lee full time for the

last about three years or so and can you

tell everyone just a little bit about

yourself otherwise outside of you know

that sure so yeah basically I was

teaching music for the past ten years

before I got into niche sites and then I

got into niche sites and it helps

supplement some on the income that I

needed through you know teaching being

somewhat inconsistent and then

eventually I moved into full time and

that's what I do so yeah this video

we're gonna talk about amp or

accelerated mobile pages which I to be

honest have pretty much ignored that I

have a few websites I generally use like

WordPress and I generally use actually

always a responsive theme and I just

felt like hey I'm covered but dave has

began diving a little bit deeper into it

so Dave since you've studied a bit more

can you just sort of describe what amp

is right for the people that don't know

so my understanding is it's like a

Google sort of run initiative that it's

like they're trying to like speed up

mobile pages so they have this special

thing that basically strips off like

excessive code to make it so your mold

pigs are super fast and it gives you

like a little lightning bolt when you

achieve your amp amplitude or whatever

so that's so

the idea behind it and then there's a

you know when I first got it it was

because I was seeing like one of my

sites was getting like kind of pinched

for some reason I was like well it could

be this or that but I'm like one thing

that seemed like it could be a solution

is I was speeding up the mobile pages

right because we were getting more

mobile traffic so that was why what

prompted me to get into it essentially

awesome okay so in general it's making

making the web pages load faster for

mobile users yeah yeah okay

does it also impact like non mobile

users too like does it compress the code

or optimize things otherwise I don't

think so I think it's just no because

what it does is it makes like a an

alternate set of URLs for your site that

are amp URLs so it's just like only on

the mobile pages that load does it do

that and so and that's what it strips

the code away and that's working cause

problems too if the code is like not

easily strippable okay got it

so in general it sounds like a

no-brainer it sounds like a good thing

today like try to implement amp although

like any sort of implementation or

anything we're doing technology stuff

problems could happen right so did I

mean you had some issues when you

returned to my grade right yeah

basically so I took my one site that's

like that what would be the easiest one

to turn into an amp site and basically

tried it tested it on that site and then

that still gave us problems because we

like you know we're not really coder

people but we have a sort of big concept

of coding and so right away we bought

once we got the plug-in there's a

plug-in that makes it easy supposedly

and then we put that on there and then

we ran into like your typical like

indecipherable error messages and that's

where we're like okay now what will you

so yeah so that's we didn't get stuck

though we basically like bought that

premium plug-in and got the support

which you know immediately they were

kind of helping us solve solved with

sort of the puzzles that were happening

as far as the coat there like that error

messages and stuff so then and we got it

up and running and it was working so got

it and I guess from when you

installed the plugin until things were

resolved with the help of support how

long did that take you definitely like a

few weeks but I think it was sort of

more like we were trying to fix it first

so I mean like this could have been

condensed into like a couple days but we

were like no no we can fix it it's like

no big deal like we can figure these

errors out because like my buddy was

like I'll just research this it'll be no

problem but of course it was like it was

a problem so that's what we're like okay

fine we'll get support I know the

feeling yeah you you're like oh that's

not too bad in an every time you pull

the thread like the whole sweater comes

undone right I think yeah

all right cool now earlier you mentioned

like your site had a little bit of a

pinch that did that mean like the

traffic went they own is that what you

were saying yeah I was kind of like at

first you know you're thinking like it's

is it the season or is it one of Google

as many updates or what's causing the

traffic to flag a little bit and so we

were just like you know in that you know

when that happens you kind of start

brainstorming and what can we do what

can we do so you know amp was just sort

of seemed like a no-brainer like you

said to like possibly solve some of the

problems like you get some the traffic

to come back if that was the issue

because we weren't sure at that point

all right

well and I think based on what you were

saying we were chatting beforehand so

like once you got amp going did like the

traffic like go higher or was it pretty

much like the same or Wow well basically

on that one side we lost the problem was

that we lost our mobile tracking on

analytics so we lost half the traffic

and just disappeared because the

tracking wasn't working on the mobile

pages because of the amp and then by the

time we fixed that came back and then it

seemed to be about the same essentially

like so we did get our little amp

lightning bolt on mobile and I think we

might have gained like a slight amount

of load time like this faster but we

didn't like see crazy results or

anything which is kinda like this is

okay sure

now can you can you tell us where you

find that you're talking about this

lightning bolt thing

no where's

where would I see this lightning bolt um

when you load it and on mobile like page

and it works there's like a circle with

a lightning bolt to be like it's like

you know you got the amp going so it's

like like it's a router like going on

your rug yeah like it's in the top

corner there's like a little circle okay

I'd have to load it up again see exactly

where it is sure okay I think that's

like the symbol for app got it it is

that on like I have an iPhone and use

like Safari the default this do you have

to be using Chrome to see the lightning

bolt or is that like ubiquitous on all

browsers I'm gonna say if you think what

is I don't know all right cool cuz I

I've never noticed a lightning bolt but

you know I've never looked for one so do

you have it on there I mean like for any

site ever that I've oh oh yeah so I I

have no amp enabled anything so I

started seeing it the first time I saw

the lightning bolt I was looking at with

like some kind of like meme site or some

kind of like image repository and we're

like there's the lightning bolt so these

like image guys they were like doing

like act like was like I gag or

something like that is that they had it

we're like okay so that's what we're

looking for so that's what we we

eventually found saw it on our own sites

look okay yeah so I'm gonna go out on a

limb and you could correct me since you

actually have worked with amp a little

bit by the way will place links for the

amp project in the description so you

can check it out and learn about it

you're on your own do some investigation

but here's my assumption if your site

generally is like a fast loader for

mobile you're probably not gonna see

like a huge benefit by moving to amp and

my assumption is if you have a slow

loading or less optimized site on for

mobile or in general you'll probably see

more of a benefit from load time which

potentially could have better like user

visitor interaction because your site

will load fast and they'll be happy to

be there do you have anything that I do

not is that accurate from your

observation or yeah I'd say like I mean

if you have a like for instance my my

buddy he has a real estate site which is

like full of like crazy code from the

real estate listings and why not so aunt

belated HAMP process is that it kind of

goes like okay well just like scrap all

this listing crap and whatever and and

so that the board loaded the code is the

more amp is gonna try to like slice

through it I guess so certain sites

would really probably benefit more than

like if your sites already kind of

responsive and mobile-friendly then it's

like you're probably just like splitting

hairs a bit but then with like some

giant like real estate site it's like if

you can get an amp to work on it and it

actually doesn't like ruin the whole

site then you're probably gonna see some

serious benefits I would assume you want

because like that code that's causing

such havoc with load time is not there

so it can't be in the amp environment

right cool that totally makes sense yeah

and so I think we could tell people you

know check it out do some investigation

maybe see how your traffic is like

interacting on mobile you know through

Google Analytics and stuff and then if

you decide to go the route of

implementing it I would oh like always

highly recommend if you're messing with

your site have a backup that you could

easily and quickly restore mistakes are

always made 100% at a time yeah so do

you have anything else to add Dave to

the migration or anything yeah I would

say like yeah again like if you have a

site that's not going out like that's

pretty simple to apply it to that's not

gonna it's gonna cause the least

problems like and it's you're not gonna

lose money the second you apply it and

it screws up and do it to that site so

that's what I did I apply it to a site

that was like not a mother site and it's

just like that way when it it can

crashed for a bit there I was like well

at least I'm not losing money right

sure well and the other thing is I'm

pretty sure you could hire someone a

contractor that is an expert in

implementing amp and they could go and

do this probably pretty quickly and then

solve the problems pretty fast as well

and in fact this will tie in a little

bit to our next conversation in the next

video so people we're going to talk a

little bit about you know working with

contractors paying them and some other

stuff like that so

be sure to check out that other video

yeah that will link up as well yeah I

just want to throw on there that like if

you are a total noob and you have no

concept of codes and errors and stuff

like that and it's gonna be like my

experience and frustration when you see

some weird coding error pop up from amp

so just like keep that in mind that you

soon a season could run on on the amp

thing you might encounter an error so

just be prepared all right on cool well

thanks Dave for joining us where do you

want people to follow you and like that

sort of thing as as always I'm trying to

promote my my youtube channel which is

music project so if you can check that
