basically I don't know like my friend
Alex Cooper over at WP Eagle he and
myself have noticed that the last few
live streams like trolls will pop up and
it's usually like when more people are
watching and the chats move in fast next
thing you know there's a racial slurs
people asking me about my bald head and
stuff and it's like I'm obviously
comfortable with my bald head like it's

I mean I can I can work with it in
general I'm quite patient you know it's
a little bit amusing but yeah just
slightly and convenient all right thanks
so we have a couple questions that were
sent in and we'll get to it if you have
questions you could ask in the chat and
yeah I'm good and it turns out the
people that I hit up for this they are
students I have other relationships with
them so nothing personal I just know
these people already so anyway we have a
handful of folks on please say hello let
me know where you're at and we're
getting into a couple cool things I just
wanted to talk about before I you know
dive into the questions number one this
is the Q&A session you can ask whatever
questions you want and basically you can
ask about the Amazon affiliate sites you
can go deeper into some rabbit holes and
basically I trying to think of other
announcements basically I wanted to
share that I'm sort of trying to
streamline and optimize my youtube
process so I'm hoping in the coming you
know weeks months that I'll be able to
you know publish more content and that
sort of thing
and okay I think we do have a troll here
so we'll just take care of that so
basically I have an assistant who's
helping me a VA who's helping me and
there are certain pieces of like the
YouTube process where I like bogs me
down and this translates I'm mentioning
it because it translates well to like if
you have an affiliate site or you're
just trying to do some work right a lot
of times you know as especially as we're
learning and process like we do each
piece it's good to learn the process so
when I have been publishing on YouTube
it's been like over a year-long process
of me like publishing more often and
that sort of thing but like you have to
you know come up with the idea create
the video edit it publish it do a
description I ignored doing thumbnails I
ignored doing descriptions for a while
but those are you know pretty important
when what you heard you're trying to do
a better job so there are pieces that
slow everything down so from a process
perspective if you're working on a niche
site if you're working on YouTube or
something else if you're able to like
figure out what you have to do what only
you can do right and look at other
pieces that you can get other people to
help you on that maybe they're better at
so a great example on the YouTube side
I'm not a great graphics person you
could probably tell and if I can get
someone who knows how do you say like
you know Photoshop or some other
software the software it doesn't matter
I don't care about the software I don't
want to know how to use it I don't want
to know how to do it or anything like
that
I just want a better thumbnail but if
you could hire say a graphic designer to
help out and take care of that portion
well then that frees up a whole piece of
the puzzle do that over and over again
then you end up with a little bit you
know something more manageable it'll be
easier to execute again I would just you
know for my piece it's like coming up
with the ideas adhering to a schedule
publishing
and getting it over to the editor and
then after that everything else can
happen without me someone else can do
the thumbnail someone else could do the
description they could schedule it all
that stuff I could shoot it and then you
know that's it I don't mind you know
shooting writing the scripts in fact I
wanted to do just more writing period
like come up with ideas write it and
move forward so I actually like sketched
out the idea and I'm gonna publish a
video on it right if I'm trying to
publish more videos that's a great thing
to do just walk you through a process
and figuring out like what do I need to
do what other people you know need to do
instead of me and again to generalize it
you can take that idea and look at your
niche site like a lot of times once you
have the core set of skills then you
could hire people to do those things
even keyword research right so once I
figured out how to do the keyword
research you know the way I wanted to do
it
I could teach someone else to do it and
get out of the weeds so all right a
couple questions coming through so we
have ranch in so there's a PayPal
checkout working you want to buy the
basic package but the transaction is I'm
being completed from my side
can I look into it okay the other
announcement yes PayPal is working if
you have any information that you can
send me range in that will be the best
way for me to look at it so I don't know
I have heard some people having issues
particularly if they're off offshore
from like North America sometimes
there's issues but if you give me more
information I should be able to help but
transactions have been coming through
the other mini announcement is my course
five figure niche site it's open for
enrollment till the end of the day today
so I open enrollment few times a year
happens to be open right now so if
you're interested in the course if
you're interested in creating a site
it's a helpful course if you're new it
takes you from the start brainstorming
mindset keyword research developing
content hiring writers doing outreach
getting links and
it goes into more advanced stuff with
the advanced packages where we talk
about you know scaling selling your site
email list building for niche sites and
other affiliate program so it goes from
very basic to very advanced and if you
have an existing site it's a great way
to refine your skills get a better
improve your foundational information
and knowledge so that you can make
changes hopefully get a quick ROI on
your investment in the course and then
improve your you know revenue pretty
quickly and actually the people that
already have sites end up you know
making their money back faster than
anyone else so but ranging sorry about
the issue shoot me an email and let me
know like where the problem is and I
should be able to help troubleshoot it
and unfortunately I only can work with
PayPal I don't do any other like payment
processing so only via PayPal okay and
yeah says how useful is being search
engine you're ranking every article on
bing do people use it not many can I
give a percentage between Google and
Bing searches I don't know exactly but
if you just google it
you could find that answer I think the
last stats that I heard Google was
something like 70% of the search engine
traffic so some people use Bing but not
really and I basically ignore it so I
would say don't worry about it it's not
helpful it's cool that you're ranking
but not helpful
yeah next question is hey Doug is the
process to finding keywords for
affiliate keyword and informational
keywords different nope it's exactly the
same I actually just published a video
like 10 minutes ago on finding
informational topics if you're unsure
but basically the keyword research
process is the same you can get ideas
from
four places additionally if you go over
to Alex's channel my friend Alex Cooper
at WP Eagle I just we collaborated I
sent him a video on getting ideas by
looking at other sites so similar type
content go over there have a look at
that video too if you need some ideas
and my friend Marcel cents and some
questions as well
so his questions and they're listed in
the description here I should actually
probably put the five for your niche
site link as well the question is do you
ever report competitors to Google for
spamming and there's actually a link
right if you wanted to take a look at
that I've never done it but I've thought
about it you know once or twice but I've
never done it I think you know I've
heard I don't know okay I don't mean
gather my thoughts I haven't seen or
heard of anyone specifically do it I
have heard of people like I've seen a
link like in forums and stuff like the
google webmaster forums I've seen like
people report things and say nothing
ever happens so I have no clue how that
process works I mean Google has a whole
spam team but I don't know how it works
I would say you know if you're not doing
anything wrong then there's probably no
harm in reporting your competitors I
don't know if it will help but it seems
like there shouldn't be you know an
issue in doing that so that said I don't
like yeah I guess there's no issue in
doing it it would just you know don't I
don't think you should view it as being
a snitch I think it's just you know it's
it's competition right if they're gonna
use things that they can get in trouble
for then they're susceptible they're at
risk anyway so I don't think you should
you know you know it's not a snitch
situation here if that makes sense
a good question on that okay ragin
thanks for sending the email I'll have a
look at it and you know work it out for
you okay and JP says search engine
market share and 2017 so there you go
yeah so wouldn't really worry about Bing
it's not really important next at least
to our model right other people may love
being but for what we're doing what
we're talking about right now it doesn't
really apply all right next question
again from our cell how's everybody
doing out there today by the way it just
started snowing it was actually quite
warm yesterday it was like 44 here in
Bozeman something like that and I brewed
a batch of beer so I actually I tried to
take some video tried to vlog that and
it's a little tough it's a little
difficult to like video and do something
and I had my dog outside so it was a
little it was a little difficult but
it's snowing today and because it was so
warm yesterday it's like a slushy mess
it's really really kind of crappy I wish
it was just like much colder and the
snow didn't yesterday like a lot of snow
kind of melted yesterday I got I see and
then it's snowing now so anyway next the
question is the key word golden ratio
versus a high key word search volume do
I have a recommendation for the ratio of
kgr key word golden ratio content versus
total site content and basically you can
do whatever you want so if you focus on
the key word golden ratio content each
piece of your content is going to be
bringing in a small amount of traffic
it's built around low volume low
competition keywords just logic tells us
Jen
really those are not going to bring in
large amounts of traffic so it really
spreads the traffic that you're getting
to many many different pages now
personally like I would recommend a
blend that blend I don't know what it
should be
right the fact is if you just have high
volume keywords and you have like ten
posts but they're high volume keywords
and you have a lot of backlinks then
most likely you can make a lot of money
however it will be much more competitive
it will be harder to stay ranked highly
it'll take longer to get ranked
but you potentially can make more money
it's more volatile though right so if
you have say ten posts they're all high
volume versus someone who has a hundred
posts and they're all low volume search
terms if one of your number one ranked
pages falls to number two it is a huge
impact if you only have ten posts if it
happens and you have a hundred post and
it's only one percent of the traffic
instead of ten percent then it doesn't
matter as much so you have to look at
your risk you have to look at you know
what you're working on and why you're
publishing certain things now in my
opinion I think it's probably viable to
have you know over 50% of your content
as keyword golden ratio and then the
rest of your content could be you know
higher volume search terms it's totally
up to you though there's no right answer
next is some people discredit the
keyword golden ratio as it really as a
way to scale a site due to low ROI and
you reference a site that I had I made
70 K last year and you say it's huge
thank you appreciate that it makes you
wonder if the main strategy is keyword
golden ratio or a supplement to big
keywords I could tell you that it's
mainly what's a blend but there are more
cagey
our posts and high-volume posts if
that's helpful the thing is people on
forums may not know what they're talking
about so if right if you put all your
money into content right probably not
the best way to go and I will tell you I
wish I would have invested some
additional money last year not on
content but more on link building it
doesn't mean it was wrong but when I
look at it it would have been better if
I would have split the money that I
invested which was about $6,000 or so if
I split the money that I invested it
maybe would have had better results do I
know for sure no you don't know until
you do it and try it and the fact is you
never like we can't go back into that
moment last year and then basically like
redo it like we can't redo it we can try
new stuff next year but we don't
actually know if that like would have
made the difference
so anyway duh
basically don't listen to people in
forums unless they know what they're
talking about if they do know what
they're talking about maybe you know
they're right and maybe it's not right
for them the model that I outlined is an
interesting one there are many many
others and it's again totally viable to
have you know small number of post
focused more on link building focus more
on high volume content and you know
there's a lot of way to do a lot of ways
to do things okay cool
next hi hi says has anyone tried and hi
hi I think you're you're alright you you
said someone named it is suspiciously
like a you know potential Patrol name
but that's a legit question I don't know
that I think you may have some issues
pushing your site with Craigslist you
know like most things I'll tell you
- you know experiment try it out see if
it works
my hunch would be that no it will work
next lien says do we link pillar post
the high volume keyword posts from each
of the kgr post and vice versa mostly
but really what you want to do is here's
the way I think about it each of your
posts should link out to like two to
five other posts on your site and each
post should receive two to five links
from other posts on your site if they're
relevant that's the best case scenario
link relevant stuff but you don't want
to necessarily do every single right the
way your question reads Lance is you
know link every single one you don't
want to link every single one you want
to link two to five per and have two to
five coming in so I think I think that's
pretty clear but if you have follow-ups
let me know Martin says my your sales
page is too long you're not trying to
offend your sure people are gonna buy it
and already know it's an amazing program
Thanks
interesting Martin I'll take that under
consideration it actually takes a long
time to do a sales page like that but I
think you'll find that the more
expensive a product the longer the sales
page needs to be and there's a lot of
reasons for trying that there's a lot of
ways to do things
thanks for your input though no offense
taken
pre Tam says your domain name your
website title name website description
navigation and page name is does it have
an effect on the SEO if yes give some
tips yeah it does I would say make it
brandable a lot of it is around like the
website so for that stuff that you're
asking it has to do with branding so I
would get anchor text with the brand
name to your homepage all this stuff
you're asking is about the homepage so
do that and that's probably the best tip
I can give you on that yeah is asking is
a link pyramid useful without private
blog networks in 2018 the general answer
I'm gonna give is just know I'm
interested in that topic so I'll just
leave it at that
no and link pyramids in the you know the
way you're using it is not useful it's a
bad idea
so anything yeah fi the way the if
you're looking for any shortcuts or
anything like that you're thinking about
everything in the wrong way so there's
no shortcut if someone is telling you
there's a shortcut they're selling you
something okay Martin says am i doing
social profiles with my pages some yeah
and if you refer to I think there were
there was a video I did maybe a week or
two ago a way to get free links so I'll
create a social profile and just have
like bare-bones information in there I'm
not a social media person I'm kind of
bad at it and generally dislike it so I
don't spend a lot of time with it
however if you're into something if
you're into Facebook if you're into
Pinterest if there's a really big like
social media community built around the
niche right feel free to explore that I
think a lot of times the traffic that
you'll get from social media is not
going to be as well targeted right I
mean they're not necessarily going to be
buyers so that is the flaw in it good
question though
right feel free to put in your questions
and for me and since you tried a few
social posts with new accounts linked to
your site and paid for Facebook ads so
ok yeah and the thing is with ads you
know in general if you're not an expert
in running ads and paid traffic it's
cool to learn and if you have a budget
great but most people do not and it
could be a you know not a very not a
very good investment
generally next adil
Adelia says you're noticing that sites
on the first page are ranking with a
majority of nofollow links can do follow
a nofollow links from blog commenting be
enough to rank you in the first page yes
technically you know it depends on a lot
of things if it's a highly competitive
term with a high search volume probably
not gonna work out however you know if
if you're just going after low
competition stuff yeah potentially I've
definitely heard that Duke says have I
ever used to affiliate programs on the
same page like given a choice between
Amazon and Walmart I haven't I haven't
tried that I think it'd be really
interesting to do between Amazon and
Walmart I think I don't know most most
of the people in my like circle of
people that I know family friends
whatever they are more likely to order
from Amazon because they're the prime
number earth's prime numbers then Prime
members Prime members so it's easy for
them to you know get stuff fast and
they're more likely to order from Amazon
than Walmart most of the time however
I've never tested it I'm not sure JP
says the income school guy said his
photography website which has millions
of use per month only gets 2 percent of
the traffic
from Facebook I would say it's a waste
of time seeing the thing is that is an
interesting data point but it is only
one data point I know that there are
probably certain pockets where you it
would be worthwhile to spend time but
it's unclear and I would not recommend
people like you know build a brand or
build out your traffic on a social media
platform unless you realize that you
will have to pay for the traffic at some
point so Paul says what would you do
with negative SEO just disavow the links
and wait
yeah disavow the links and somebody asks
something the other day and it's
probably a good idea and I don't talk
about it too much but as your sites get
older it's probably a good idea to
monitor the links and look a little more
closely I've talked to a friend the
other day and he mentioned that there is
a model out there for I don't know what
it does but there's a model for like
curating and syndicating content and
essentially they take your content
publisher on their site and then there's
links coming off of it I don't
understand but he was telling me about
it and I mean I've seen these sites out
there and I don't really understand like
the mechanism that makes them worthwhile
somehow they're worthwhile for some kind
of spam activity but anyway those links
do pop up and I do recommend you know if
there are crappy links disavow them it
does seem scary like if anyone has done
the disavow process you will see that
Google warns you a couple times and says
that like you know it can have
detrimental effects if you don't know
what you're doing so be sure you know
you seek like expert advice and make
sure you're doing it right but the thing
is like if you do see bad links like
most likely it's a good idea
to get rid of him if you see bad links
okay
yeah is asking something about gray hat
no I'm not really saying that so the
question is do I mean the blog
commenting and guest posts and social
profile and direct links can rank our
post to the first position without
pyramids or tiered link building oh yeah
I mean you're mixing a lot of stuff in
there yeah I feel like you need to do
more research and I don't know where
you're learning stuff but a lot of the
stuff that you're saying makes me think
that you're reading like old things so
don't do linked pyramids that's bad all
right trying to do private blog networks
unless you know what you're doing by
your questions I know that you're not
experienced but what we're saying is if
you do blog commenting and guest posting
you could rank number one yeah so Wesley
what's up if I ever stopped working on a
site and had it retains its earnings
each month for a long period if so how
long before noticing earnings drop yes
so that site that I referenced before
that made like 70 K there have been
stretches of you know eight months where
I didn't do anything and the earnings
actually went up and I didn't wait to
see when the earnings would drop I
started working on it again before that
so once you get a site established it
can do pretty well these things are
pretty hands-off unless you're like in a
growth mode yep
and Duke says Facebook is a waste of
time they said they're not gonna put
publisher page post in your newsfeed
yeah okay
and then schewe says once the course
begins has a youtube schedule gonna go
about the same as usual Wednesday and
Friday yep
basically I think I may publish a little
more often with the like just regular
videos I haven't been as consistent I've
been pretty consistent I usually publish
about five times
a week but um you know sometimes I don't
schedule it in time sometimes I'm just
off a little bit so and Sheila says
Sheila says if I took the income school
niche sites I could explode them into
monsters thanks appreciate that and you
know what I'm sure those guys can do I
bet they do link building on some of
their other sites I don't know I haven't
talked to him about it but it's funny
it's it's funny people are so passionate
about it okay and Martin says special
tribute to people who are here key words
starting with can I blank while blank
have an amazing kgr oh nice yeah good
idea thanks for mentioning that there
Paul says what's up Paul good have you
owned do I think the blog's that accept
a lot of guest posts are not valuable at
a lot so it depends but generally you're
on the right track so what happens a lot
of times and you may be seeing this more
and more often as more and more people
are doing outreach and really bad
outreach by the way I try not to
complain too much but for a niche site
project I mean I'm getting pitches like
every day from someone who's like hey
you want to take a look at my
infographic maybe I've already told him
not to email me back and I'm like I
don't want to help your affiliate I
don't want to help your hosting
affiliate site like they're probably
making crazy amounts of money and they
just want me to waste my time and post
their stupid infographic and those are
like legit ish sites right I mean they
have someone working outreach and
there's like a real person behind it so
anyway the point is a lot of sites have
their Paul have like a right for us page
or something like that or they have some
guest posts and these people are just
sending guest posts and they're
potentially paying so the more guest
posts that you see the
less valuable probably the link will be
not always sometimes that's just um you
know a common thing right go look at the
Tim Ferriss blog right he actually has
quite a few guest post on there there
quite a lot of guest post on there but
they're from like big other you know
authors and bloggers and content
creators and those are hugely valuable
right so I would look at it more like
that like is this actually a blog that
will bring traffic in the more traffic
that it actually would bring it
indicates it's like a real site with
real fans and stuff like that and if
that's the case it's probably a more
valuable link so right and what what
else what other questions we have other
good really good question Paul and you
know to that point if you're doing
outreach I haven't talked about it in a
while but my recommendation would be
that you do you know more relationship
building overkill on the relationship
building versus asking for something as
there are no questions there I'll
digress into a story so I got an email
from I think it was like a a new
financial blogger and he was like hey do
you accept guest post I write about you
know financial blogging I'm a
professional you know working some
corporate job and I'm blogging here and
I hear a guest posting is a good way to
go
couple big mistakes like when enough
like his opening was do you accept guest
post basically right I mean mid there
may have been an intro for who he was in
the first sentence or so but essentially
it was an ask he didn't you know express
any like interest in what I was doing or
helping me at all he literally asked to
do a guest post and then he asked if I
had any tips for him and I should have
just deleted it but I did give him a tip
and
to not ask for something right away and
to work on building relationships so to
be a little redundant and make my point
with the same point that I told him you
know spend time like you know trying to
at least pretend like you're being a
friend to them you'll have a much better
chance at getting accepted
so you'll potentially notice that I've
done a few interviews with people and
I've been on their channels on their
YouTube channels or like podcasts and
stuff usually the root of that is me
sending multiple emails developing
relationship versus just asking for
something so that is a key point
all right next yeah says if you have 100
articles on your site how can I start
blog commenting for each and every
article manually I will take much time
any faster idea back to my point before
there's no shortcut it just takes a long
time so if you want to do that I would
recommend doing a little bit each day do
10 comments each day and then in a
hundred days you're done right you've
done you've done that in a hundred days
you've accomplished that you've
commented on ten different blog posts on
other blogs and in a hundred days I mean
that's no time man that is like three
months in a couple weeks right like that
is you're there like start today and
you'll be done by April okay
so it doesn't take that long just start
doing it actually if you stopped coming
to these live streams and instead spend
your time doing the blog commenting
you're done and I bet you don't have a
hundred post up yet let me know do you
have a hundred posts up yet all right
rinse
you added a sponsored post guidelines
page and now you get less guest post
request ah interesting I wonder why
that's a filter interesting all right
Martin says is it better to do 100
articles each with two backlinks or ten
articles each with 20 backlinks I don't
know it depends on it's a cool
philosophical question my gut right my
gut says the second one do 10 articles
with 20 backlinks each but I think you
better answer is a blend of the two so
maybe not you know a hundred articles
maybe you do 25 articles and then what
is that 4 links / or something like that
or maybe you do 25 articles and four or
five of the articles have 80% of the
links and then the other ones are maybe
keyword golden ratio type type stuff so
all right yeah yeah that that's the idea
start tomorrow start today man just
start today why not why not get started
right now and you say you're gonna do 30
to 50 a day okay yeah so you'll be
you'll be banging through it in no time
and you have to look at it like a you
know training for marathon I think I've
I've given an example like this but if
you're gonna like run a marathon or
half-marathon that's kind of my distance
that's 13 miles for people that don't
know and that must be that is 20k for
our international folks about 20k and
basically you can't just go out and run
13 miles or you know if you can you're
probably gonna be sore it'll be a little
harder on your body and you have to do
things
like incrementally slow you have to like
increase your mileage by like 5% per
week you have to run like you know three
to five depending on how you train three
to five times per week and you're
increasing your mileage very slowly so
you're never like overextended hopefully
you're not getting injured or anything
like that and really anything useful
that you're gonna do it's probably gonna
take a long time that's kind of an area
that I am good at like my personality
does well with that long-term goals
where you have to be committed you have
to stick with it I'm good at that and if
you're you know some people's sites you
know they have a DD they're interested
in too many things and I mean fact is
you gotta you do have to focus up for a
lot of stuff so you have to figure out
how to harness that okay I'll shut up
KBT says what's the best price for two
thousand words a two thousand word
article and upwork it's a weird question
what's the best price I'm not really
sure you probably shouldn't shop around
and buy content at the cheapest price so
if I just had to tell you what is the
cheapest price I think there's like some
minimum a mail-in upwork which you could
just look up so it's whatever that is I
have no idea but if you pay the cheapest
price that you possibly can get for two
thousand words it's probably not going
to be very good so bad in a bad way to
think about it I would recommend so -
I'll answer a different question that I
think is it's better for 2,000 words I
would recommend that you pay twenty five
to thirty five dollars or so can you get
a cheaper sure is it more valuable
probably not so I would say you know
don't skimp alright
and Wesley says three cents per word yep
I mean that that's a that's a fair rate
for for good work Martin says okay so
you're gonna do the page today you fam
in an amazing niche awesome and last
question am i afraid that writers could
steal the idea if they if they assume
your earnings you have trust issues
could steal your eye your niche if they
assume your earnings I'm not sure so
generally no I'm not worried the writers
could steal the niche it's all in the
execution right the fact is I won't do
this but the fact is if I gave you a
niche idea and I gave you all the
keywords that you would need in fact if
you sign up for the email list you get a
lot of keywords the problem is it's all
the execution right so yeah that's a
good example he was asking like about
isn't it gonna take a long time to do
comments yeah everything takes a long
time everything that I'm talking about
it sucks it work it's work and it's
gonna take a lot of time there's no like
fast way to do it so basically generally
not always but the writers often don't
have enough skills to execute and even
if they knew the niche site idea it's
still not exactly cut and dry again if I
just gave like a niche and a thousand
keywords and set up hosting for you like
you still may not be able to make it
work another good example around that is
the done-for-you sites right a lot of my
friends they have companies that sell
done-for-you sites I'm you know I'm a
proponent of building your own site
because you need the skills to get
traffic which is my point if a writer
has the ideas if they take my ideas and
the keywords and stuff they see the site
that I'm working on or something
and they wanted to do their own they
still would have to figure out the piece
of the puzzle of getting traffic and it
turns out even with training even with
the training that they've done for you
sites provide a lot of times people end
up never making any money from it
because they don't understand the other
pieces if that makes sense
so good question Martin good luck on on
your site there Sharon says after you
have a title using the keyword golden
ratio then how many different keywords
need to be in the actual article I don't
think about it that way basically I have
the writer write the article in a
natural way so the keyword should be in
the article probably one time I usually
put it in once and that's basically it
most of the time a keyword golden ratio
term is a long rare phrase that
shouldn't be be weird if it was in there
like five times so I usually just put it
in once Paul says do I have a special
interlinking strategy or just inner link
where you feel it's normal to do it yes
that's right okay cool
says you're 16 and you want to do great
by the time you're 20 awesome sounds
amazing I wish I had this sort of
insight when I was that young Barry says
what's researching a niche do I
recommend a single product web do I
recommend single product websites or
niches with multiple products Barry
multiple products for sure
my idea around that is to find a you
know a narrow like product niche but
brand the site in a general way so for
example I always mention pens or markers
or something like that because they're
always laying around so if it's like
pens and markers I would not make it
like best markers and pens comm I would
make it like office products because
then after you focus narrowly on
whatever you find you can essentially
add products later right so you want to
be able to expand later if you want
so Barry definitely multiple products
but with a focus early on on just one
product ok kbtu bought a company domain
with ink on the domain name do you think
you could face legal issues not sure you
should consult a lawyer Wesley says is
it good to put LSI keywords in your
article there's a good site to find
outside keywords just google it
you know what I don't pay attention to
be honest with you so LSI is the latent
semantic indexing and basically it just
means synonyms so if usually if you have
the writer right naturally those should
pop up in there to be honest with you
Wesley
I've heard people saying that it is
quite effective but I've never paid
attention so have you have you tried it
have you put it into your articles and
seen a good effect
and KBT is saying the domain was expired
yeah I have no idea so I mean if it's a
trademarked name then you could have run
into trouble someone sent me a couple
messages they had a domain with like a
trademarked movie name in it and I I was
like oh actually it's Kevin right here
so Kevin I'll get to that in a second so
the domain was expired and basically you
shouldn't use like other companies names
in there Wesley if the company is still
in operation then yeah you may run into
issues here's the weird part if you if
you start the site no one's gonna care
right Kevin so no one's bothering you
about your site right now as soon as you
start getting traffic as soon as you
start becoming successful then you will
have a problem because you'll find your
site inevitably no one's gonna pay
attention when you're getting started
because you have no traffic no one knows
who you are
no one cares the problem is once you
start getting traffic and you start
making money that's when they'll find
you and that's when you'll get a letter
from their lawyers and then you'll have
to move your site now Kevin you sent me
several questions and I appreciate the
interaction and I wrote in there I'm
super busy I don't have time to answer
your one-on-one questions unless you pay
me for a consultation session so I'm not
trying to I mean I'm sitting here right
now so you can ask me questions right
but if you send one-on-one questions to
me it's a little inconvenient so one
could imagine I get a lot of questions
like that I literally probably get about
10 questions per day where someone is
just asking like something
straightforward and simple one question
not a big deal 10 people kind of a
problem multiply that by seven days
week big issue and Wesley so I can't
answer your questions unless your
student and that is the main reason I
don't have time I have a course called
five-figure niche site and basically I
spend a lot of time with the students I
answered their questions we do sessions
where we talk about the material and
it's nothing personal Kevin I just I
literally don't have time to answer like
a YouTube message but I'll answer your
question here in the live sessions it's
literally what they're here for so Kevin
I hope you I hope that makes sense
nothing personal at all so my most
successful niche site there was a
project called Project a white hat I
wrote a 12-part blog series on it go to
a niche site project and look at project
go white hat my friend and I sold it for
235 thousand and those are you know I
don't talk about everything that I work
on that is helpful
you know to share some stories but not
all Wesley says the LSI keywords have
helped bring in more long-tailed traffic
other software like market Muse are
helpful but it's very expensive
cool so and and I think like the LSI I
was talking to a friend the other day
and she was doing old-school like manual
analysis so she went to the search
console and she looked at the keywords
for a given URL she looked at some pages
that were already ranking well that were
getting quite a lot of traffic and she
just looked to see what you know what
search terms were bringing people in and
then she looked at the content and
figured out if you know it was optimized
around that topic then she if it wasn't
she added a section for that and you
know I believe you know it's not
directly LSI related but that's sort of
thinking where you look at the keywords
that potentially could help that page
bring in different traffic bring in more
traffic than you add those you had a
section right do a subheading with LSI
and then right you know 200 words on it
it's perfect so thanks Kevin appreciate
your understanding Paul says do you I
intend to have some more courses in the
future potentially and you say on
several specific topics could you
elaborate Paul I am interested in doing
more courses and Paul are you the Paul
in the productivity course because I did
have a productivity course and basically
you know I enjoyed working on different
topics too so
okay and then yeah is asking about what
is the site that I sold so a couple
things you may not understand this yet
yeah but from a professional perspective
you know when you sell a site you don't
want to out the site because that could
be bad for the new owners right so
basically I don't share the site for a
number of reasons but one of them is you
know if I ever want to work with a
broker again I have to respect thing the
new owners so it's a funny it's funny
people seem to think it's not a big deal
but it's actually a big deal
alright Barry says do forum do follow
links send link juice to your blog so
yeah generally yeah in really any do
follow links are good forums can be
great even nofollow links and forums can
be good if they are bringing in traffic
it Wesley is deep on the LSI keywords
maybe I need to look into that it's a
good topic I don't know much about it's
a great way to come up with more content
to thicken up an article I like that
verb to the thicken up and Paul yes it's
you in the productivity course yeah and
like so there's a couple areas to go
sort of like deep into what I'm working
on I'm constantly trying to like build
the audience right it's an ongoing thing
build the audience grow the email list
right everything is around the email
list to the point earlier that we were
talking about Facebook groups and stuff
like I luckily never got mixed up in you
know building a Facebook I have a
Facebook group but it was sort of like
gifted to me so I have a Facebook group
but you know there I don't feel like
there's good activity in there and I
don't have interest in working with it
but the point is I've always like
focused on the email list which is you
know something I own I possess versus
yep it's
the email newsletter email list yep so
it's something that I have and you know
I could send out an email and people get
it and they read it where if I post
