my last video which was about content I
also went in to earnings in that video
and yeah boot boutique is doing very
nicely so I'm gonna do some work on it
add some more content and tidy up the
products and you know general
maintenance because I've not really
logged in and done any work on it for
quite some time now and it's gotten to a
done a few tutorials on it you know
added some Adsense and and other bits
and bobs on it it's got a bit got into a
bit of state so I'm gonna work on it but
it's still doing
you know 80 90 pounds a month at the
moment she's good for a site I've done
my work on the firmest has rhihub that's
the rehab theme looks like a bit of work
to get it set up and looking nice it's
not too bad the visual editors not the
best I've heard the X theme cornerstone
editor but it's not to you but it comes
with a lot of demo content so you can
use that to you know give you a bit of a
head start
Radovan I don't know yet that is why I
skipped at you
you spied that red on maybe if you could
type it phonetically I'll try and
pronounce it hello Ian happy New Year to
you as well hello Jason so you'll be
pleased to know that Robin the baby it's
time in bed fast asleep so I'm hoping
there'll be any disturbances my wife is
in as well today so it should be fine if
you saw the live stream I did for
Christmas it didn't quite go to plan
because yeah the baby wouldn't sleep and
yeah watch it if you fancy she's
watching me struggle do a live stream
with a baby on one up red one hello red
one now that does sound better hi
Charles
hello tomorrow okay so there's quite a
few of you on now so we can get started
with the questions and that will let me
know what you've been working on if
you've had any success or any you know
topical subject you want me to talk
about that's fine too then run for a
good hour today to make up for having no
live streams over Christmas and also the
baby stream the infamous baby stream
really end ralien asks are British
people interested in Amazon affiliate
program do you have a lot of clients
from UK yeah there's a lot of viewers
from the UK a lot of people building
Amazon a Fitzroy some UK my sites a UK
based so yeah I think we
like the Amazon defeated site yeah sites
why not Amazon's really big in the UK a
lot of people use Amazon Ian says I
created a post for my slider on my home
page but it also showing up on my post
page is it possible to keep us like a
post but remove it from the post page
yeah it should be what theme are using
for that one hello
Everett you guys have all got quite
difficult homes for me to pronounce
thanks for the car words I'm glad that
you you're enjoying the videos um mono
Kai says how many articles should have
saw it at least have two should a site
have at least to us something like that
how many articles do you need to rank
well in Google is what I'm trying to say
um there's no kind of hard and fast rule
the more the better
obviously but I say as a minimum you're
gonna want at least 10 and those
articles need to be you know good
quality useful be at least a thousand
words have rich formatting so you're
using bullet points and bolds and
headings and all that time I think maybe
including tables and some images a video
if you can so you know some really good
articles when it comes to articles it
really is about quality over quantity
so 910 really good articles will do just
as well as 50 you know rubbish articles
photos how I know
jobs from the beer site paid for posts
yeah I have
I can't obviously track them back
directly to sales however if I look I'll
bring up my thing now look at my reports
within Amundsen I did quite a big push
around the Star Wars stuff the Star Wars
be stuff so let's just have a look at
how many Star Wars products I actually
sold the other thing that did work very
well with the ads was building likes on
the page I was getting likes for hardly
any money they were really cheap so it's
working well and I'm adding more content
as you've seen in the last video and
yeah I think it's gonna be alright let's
have a quick look I've got it up now let
me share my screen what the heck why not
here we go
so yeah his wishes you probably go back
a little bit further but then I'll need
to have a look I mean I've spent more on
Facebook than hover and so far so I'll
just question is there an ROI not yet
but there is lots of people on the page
that's bringing out the page yeah 415
people so the ones that I was boosting
that's how I could look um was this one
wasn't that one anyway yeah let's have a
look at the products I definitely was
boosting star was once so there doesn't
say I know no it doesn't seem to be any
Star Wars ones in this so I know it's
difficult to say the site is doing good
though um so whether it's down to the
Facebook ads it's so hard to track with
an Amazon affiliate site
Hitler likeness any stuff or stuff
actually being sold even they could get
good engagement so good question I think
you know it's pretty bit early to say
anyway so let's carry on hey we're back
how do you get the yeah how do you get
the new arrivals or whatever your Bishop
stays down below in your page yeah look
it's just within the customize area of
the theme now for some reason I don't
know what's going on but P shirt site is
running really slow like there's a bit
of a problem with it it seems to just be
this site so I'm not quite sure I
haven't installed anything new it's not
allowed for me now I don't think so
that's a bit of a nice showing enough to
look into that maybe I'll do a video
about it I don't know what's causing it
but my site has just suddenly sort of
died I don't know is that is it coming
up for you is it just me are you able to
access beer shirt still credit you came
right now it could just be me and we
just try different browser may me hope
still slow
so when it loads I will have a look at
that and let you know how I did the bit
on that homepage right where are we and
so I'm getting traffic to my site I have
sold any yet except for a blog can I do
anything else I just keep going keep
more traffic keep adding more articles
maybe add a few more products if you
have got an e-commerce type site hello
Helen
Dominic says I'm starting an affiliate
site it's using Divi builder okay for
this kind of thing I make sure you shop
specific themes yeah you can use do be
it might be a bit of overkill though for
an affiliate site because it's got lots
of nice you know designs bits and bobs
and you can lay stuff out which is fine
and if you want to do that that's great
but if you want to get a site at boot
but you know a bit faster then a more
simple theme might be might be better
like storefront which is the the free
one or just a simple sort of blog type
theme obviously depends on the sort of
site you're gonna be building the firm
says it's down here too so yeah
everyone's having trouble getting on to
be HSI I'll raise it with those cater I
guess to a same it seems I did raise it
within the other day in it as I was
talking to someone that live chat just
started working again so I thought they
must have done something but maybe it
isn't so mana quite says what does a
good free WordPress theme that you can
use to rank good in Google is it
necessary to buy a premium theme it's
not necessary to buy a premium theme to
rank well in Google any site will rank
one in Google if it's got good content
and it's got a good reputation and it
builds reputation by getting links to it
so guest post for example is a good way
to build links but you could use forums
or social media and your theme is not
that important really when it comes to
SEO
Azonto bwe hello I want to build an
authority site via WordPress any theme
suggestions come to mind if you just
want a kind of flexible theme Divi as we
mentioned is good X theme is good any
kind of magazine style theme just have a
look on theme forest and check out the
different ratings and reviews but a
general-purpose sort of theme often will
do you well so you had Divi or X name of
both really good general purpose themes
or read the end says what is your
opinion on Amazon ads to use them on
your sites do you add to convert
wealthier I don't really use Amazon ads
I never tried them so I don't know
success rollercoaster what is better a
blog or a shop and a blog a blog you're
gonna need to be really focused on the
content obviously that's all it's got
content so you know it's gonna need more
than ten articles to be a proper blog I
find that the shop sites work well they
get traffic to the shop pages the
category pages and the product pages so
you know that's got to be a good thing
often coming up on longtail searches
some people have been very specific
about a product you can rank and even if
you rank below Google as I mentioned in
my last video you can still get traffic
and you can still get Commission so yeah
I still like the shop size but it's
really up to you and it reads depends on
how much content and sort of look you
want your site to have it are you gonna
be really content focused and offer a
really good value on your content there
may be a blog sites for you if you're
gonna just kind of have a few affiliate
sites and add a bit of content and have
them tick over and in a few hundred a
month or whatever then a shop site might
be better
tim says excluding the websites you've
made for online teaching what do you
have rich for income on your active
sites just a ballpark number um it's a
few hundred pounds a month so another I
don't do any work on them as you will
know if you watch my videos my main
income does come from affiliate stuff on
YouTube but that's going to change
because I'm working on beer shirts so I
am hopeful that in a few months the
income and that would be quite a bit
more
hello terribly British great username
have you got an opinion on whether a
site should have a sidebar or be full
width I don't ready have an opinion on
it
I've got sites with both my one thing I
would think about when it comes to
sidebars is how they look on a mobile
because on a mobile there isn't room for
a sidebar so that content in that
sidebar has to go somewhere on a mobile
and what can happen obviously depends on
the theme you're using but say the
sidebars on the left that would often
mean that the sidebar will be at the top
which will mean it will be above the
content and that can make it look a bit
weird so I would ya consider mobile and
then make a judgement on that if it's
for shop navigation and stuff sidebars
can be pretty useful ens what did you
say you retracted your message Oh mister
hello Jen happy New Year to you too
you said Amazon put on hold my account
you know what I need to do um it depends
on why they put you on hold that will
give you a clue as to what you need to
do Matt says hi Alex was wondering if
you've had any luck in generating
traffic via Twitter I haven't all and
end up giving up with it but interesting
your force I II don't really use Twitter
much so no I it's something that maybe I
should look into but yeah Twitter is not
something I use that much I use it
obviously to put little notes up about
live streams and stuff but no I'm not
used it on any of my freely sites I'm
gonna use Facebook and Pinterest
a sense has what about viral sites for
that sense in 2018 I think my still
irrelevant they probably bigger than
ever actually viral sites they're
everywhere whether you're asking whether
I'll do another tutorial on making a
site then yeah I probably will find a
new theme and a sorry new and let's do
it
it's not something that I've obviously
got the viral site I've got um the
Labrador one which I again I haven't
done any work on it was quite some time
yeah I think this year I'm going to take
on a assistant and I'm going to ask them
to work on a lot of my affiliate sites
because I just don't have the time so
I'm gonna see how that works out Monaco
says do you know a free wordpress
treatment is as good as Divi X theme I
don't you always have to pay for such
theme you do the old-line you get what
you paid for
I've not found a free theme that comes
anywhere near the premium themes in
terms of the quality the features and
the ease of use so it's generally worth
you know investing fifty sixty dollars
in a good theme jenrog says i have
someone who wants a separate section on
the wordpress website that has a secure
login never done this before any plugins
yeah you can do that you can do it with
a membership plug-in I guess that's what
it's for unless it's for an e-commerce
site in which case you get a login with
WooCommerce anyway to make you secure
you'd want to install an SSL certificate
as it videos on the site or on the
channel even about that but yeah if you
want like a membership area there's a
number of members plugins I've used one
recently let's name it escapes me now
have a quick look so that would allow
you to kind of secure content that kind
of things so if you want to hide pages
so there's just members only you can do
that all right let me have a look what
its name is there's loads that I've used
things like s free member before I think
that's one it's quite a few different
ones I'm using
the ship - which is a bit of a generic
name so I'm not sure I got it from a
look but I quiet slightly I'm working on
I this comes with air wpm you dev I
don't know if you've heard of them
before just share a link with them
they're like a club that you join and
there's a monthly fee and you get access
to tons of really cool plugins so yeah
that's what I'm using okay a masters how
do you promote your affiliate marketing
oh there's loads of different ways I've
been for this a number of times on a
channel you've got SEO so you got search
engine optimization making sure that
your website is optimized using a plugin
like Yoast
then building links to it using guest
posts or forum posts or social media
that kind of thing you can use social
media and to draw over people to your
site from social media you can use paid
ads to build up your social media and to
also draw people to your site you can
use platforms like YouTube which is how
I promote a lot of my affiliate stuff as
you know there's loads of ways if you
google that question you'll find article
with almost 50 different ways that you
can get traffic and promote your stuff
Jen says she's having no luck on twitter
eva stupid robot fighting League hello
good to have you on
rented sales page for products on a
subdomain for me experience is better to
publish products as articles or as pages
for a better conversion static product
should probably be pages and a thought
or they should be products and you
should use something like WooCommerce if
you're gonna have like a landing page
then that should definitely just be a
page CD says my site got about a hundred
visits last month for that any
advertising is that good yeah I'd say
that's pretty good what do you been
doing where they coming from success
roller coasters any niche website ideas
yeah you got I have you got any passions
or any idea any where you want to start
all might would be to go and look at
some other affiliate sites and trying
get some ideas from them but if you
wanted to roll some ideas out on my head
then we could do some brainstorming
together as a group for leash ideas if
you'd like but give us a give us a
sector to start with and we'll see what
we can point with success rollercoasters
I should do an interview with income
school like Doug did ah maybe I should
I'll get in touch
David says do I recommend storefront
over kingdom--the in these days no I
still recommend Kingdom I think kingdoms
got a lot more functionality than
storefront interestingly I'm I want to
do some more with storefront and it is
very limited because it's a free theme
so I'm gonna have to do buy their bundle
of extra stuff which may make storefront
a similar price to Kingdom beer shirts
is loading now how strange
I'll go back to the question regarding
the new in if I can log in I think it's
going to work
so um good question I can't see it now
must be honest somewhere I should go
back and watch the video I made you're
still being a little bit slow the site
that's not loading we'll come back to it
Richard says for an Amazon affiliate
site with blog do you recommend for as
an affiliate shop site would book do you
recommend email opt-ins with an
autoresponder and if so which one do you
recommend and is a domain email
necessary yeah I would recommend it if
you can it's always good to build a list
because then you can send out emails
with affiliate links in also your
autoresponder needs to have something of
value a reason for you'll sign up so try
and think of something that you can give
away for free or some really good
information that kind of thing I would
recommend MailChimp I've used marching
before it does all that stuff it's free
until we get to a certain level of email
addresses and signups and yeah you
probably are gonna needed two main email
for that but with your hosting you
should have some email so you should be
fine yeah Matt says error establishing
the database connection there that is
the error on beer shirts I'm gonna fixed
so I would
it's no good promoting it and all that
kind of stuff if the site's not working
very well I don't know what it is I
think I'm installed any plugins or
anything recently I've done something to
break it tim says have I ever bought
traffic for my size yeah I bought
traffic from Facebook and from Google
Adwords
they're my two main ones I wouldn't buy
any traffic from you know fiver on you
like that I'd use a proper advertising
platform seems to have a DDoS attack on
the business website maybe I do it's
kind of up and down at the moment that
could be in obviously really pissed
someone off maybe what I'll do is I
could fire up a hostgator chat while I'm
on the stream let's just see what they
say wouldn't that be fun let's do it and
we can test out Hostgator support I know
but I have to put information in here we
go eat the questions coming anyway I'm
just going to log in and see if I can
maybe I ought to tell me if it's having
an attack I'm sure tech support
description is I've got web site issues
we go our chats should be connected to
an agent in five minutes so they're
gonna wait and see I'll try and keep it
where I can see it I always miss that
with the live chat join the queue then
do something else and completely forget
about anyway wherever you're gone yeah
Matt says it's working it's up and down
so more questions
ah okay Ian sorry yeah let's get back
when your friend I'm not used access
press at all but I'm sure there is a way
to hide the slide on your blog post and
we checked all the theme options if not
you could probably use a little bit of
CSS to hide it if it's a premium theme
there maybe just drop the developer a
quick message and they should go to help
you out the thermosets kind of video
about google analytics what to look for
please yeah I can but generally you want
to look at you know a few key stats so
obviously the amount of traffic you're
getting is important you also want to
look in the acquisition section to see
where that traffic is coming from and
within there you can drill down so you
can see you know the terms that are
coming up on Google that kind of thing
you wanna look at pages per visit and
bounce rate that gives you an idea of
the engagement so how good the traffic
is if people are clicking around that's
that's gonna be a good sign but yeah
I'll have a look at you don't succeed if
I can put a video together Jen says when
build a site for a client do you build
it as a subdomain to your main site and
then copy over to clients the main
weren't finished um what I tend to do is
I set it up on their the hosting that
they're going to be on so I create their
account that kind of stuff and generally
we're hosting you get a preview URL so
it'll be you know something that they
give you for example on WP engine it's
the username or whatever of the client
and then WP engine calm and then I build
it just on there I like send that link
to the client I make sure that it's not
indexed by search engines there's a
little option in the Google sorry in the
WordPress settings under reading and you
can stop search engines coming in and
then when we're ready to go live with WP
engine there's a very simple process
that you just go through to survive with
other hosting sometimes you have to do
kind of a database lookup to replace the
URL but yeah generally I put it on the
live hosting but just don't point the
domain until we're ready to go by you
pointing their domain hope that makes
sense thanks Luke oh hang on my
Hostgator support has just keeping that
didn't take long did it let's ask them a
question it's like beer shirts no credit
UK is not working it's up and down yet
database connection and other loops and
one-up success
kosha says do I use dashlane that's very
personal but yes or do please don't hang
me
did you see it then when I shared my
desktop or something David Suzuki wife
gettin SSL for a standard affiliate site
yeah it definitely is
slicer SSL tend to rank better
[Music]
really says SSL is mandatory since lost
yet anything SSL is mandatory it's just
a good thing to have
it just says hostgator chat support it's
not that bright
I've great luck on the phone okay we'll
see they're not fixed it yet so we'll
see their tips
how am i today I'm fine but my site's
not working
I'm FLT 1979 says I'm working on my site
I described today that it looks good on
Google Chrome but it looks all messed up
on Internet Explorer an edge have you
ever had this before yeah all the time
it's a nightmare to be fair I've never
really tested my sites on Internet
Explorer but I have had problems with
clients in the past that have said oh my
site doesn't wreck you don't export it's
a bit of a nightmare
depends on the theme you're running you
can generally get help from the theme
developers on that issue but yeah it's
just a nightmare I don't know why that
is Internet Explorer it is a pain it
just says there's anything related to
sports betting I can do already one it
related to betting on sports kindly help
please give us in two to three minutes
on it a couple of ideas on that one so
you could have a voucher site where you
get a load of affiliate coupons which
I'm sure are easy to get from betting
sites and that kind of thing and you
just basically put them all together so
people can get the best you know value
when they sign up for a betting site
maybe it's a free bet that kind of thing
only one way of doing it
the thing that is quite competitive
another way would be to focus on a
particular sport and maybe offer tips or
advice information that kind of stuff
you also need to do your research and
know a little bit about it then within
your sports site you could offer a link
this to betting sites that kind of thing
um the two ideas the top my head I hope
that helps Jen says don't you worry that
the client might log you out at the
website and they're not paid the final
feet I've never worried about that and
it's never happened um I generally
wouldn't give them any passwords or
anything that they didn't need until the
site was live so I wouldn't give them an
admin password if the site is behind a
maintenance mode of something that I
might give them just a simple login in
um WordPress there's different roles so
could just be subscribe or whatever and
you could let them in that way but now
I've never had a problem with clients
Nick insights generally they need you
anyway you know to make the site offer
you unless you're falling out with them
then you probably couldn't see it coming
but there's no reason why they do that
because they then have a site that they
don't know what they're doing with and
all that kind stuff ok host kids who are
checking out a site doctors is I'm
counting on most of my link clicks
coming from video descriptions in
YouTube I'm just making a site to get
approve Rosen does Amazon account click
differently based on their source no but
you have to be careful they don't like
you linking directly from social media I
don't know if that includes YouTube but
for something a few posts and Amazon
affiliate links straight onto Facebook
you can get into trouble and they they
know that you're sending stuff from
Facebook so they can see in the logs so
you probably want to link to a website
your website from YouTube and then I've
seen link off from Amazon link to for
Amazon from your site you can use cards
as well on YouTube to promote our links
Dominic says for any
like do you know any plugins that allow
employees to book time off needs better
stop booking time off for someone else
um a while back and I'm talking a good
while back so it could be over yeah I
did a video on a calendar plugin which I
think had that sort of functionality so
go over to code Canyon and do a search
for some calendar stuff and you'll
probably find a plug-in that will do
that successfully Coe says what do you
think about CJ affiliates I think
they're fine I've used squish injunction
before it all depends on the merchants
that you need there's that there's a
good choice on there but they're in
certain niches David says it was useful
chat yes to go to work now David hope it
goes okay thanks for coming thanks
joining us Richard says what your
thoughts on building a web server and
hosting your own sites I wouldn't do
that it sounds like too much hassle yeah
I've never never thought that I'm not
that techie and I can't be bothered and
you know you'd have to have it hosted in
a datacenter you can really at home and
it would end up costing a lot more I
think in the long run you pretty better
just hire someone else and let the
professionals do it hello Batgirl
Jake a-star gonna have you create
content easily with the products she
avatars from Amazon is a magical formula
maybe there isn't a magical formula I'm
afraid I've done a few videos on how to
create content you really need to there
is a bit of a formula you need to think
of a certain sort of article so it could
be a how-to it could be a review you can
always resort to lists you know they
kind of write themselves pretty much you
make a list of certain types of products
then you write a little bit of blurb
about each one and put them together in
a list and before you know it you've got
quite a good article
but yeah there's no kind of magic
formula just look at what some of the
other big sites doing and try and kind
of mimic that so you'll see that a lot
of them have reviews and how-to guides
and they're very detailed and structured
and they include lots of different bits
of media those saying earlier so there
isn't any magic formula there is never a
magic formula or button generally and
there's always work involved and
research and try stuff out into the did
a Google or a Google page speed test on
a new WordPress translation so a content
edit and one plug-in I still only scored
42 Mobile on 50 PC why would that score
so bad considering it was an untouched
site
who's that hosted with and a default
WordPress installation does not take all
of Google PageSpeed boxes so for example
it doesn't have compression enabled it
doesn't have browser caching enabled
which is why it's never going to school
particularly well because there's a lot
of optimization that needs to be done
it's a wordpress in order to get it
score in high success rate everyone's
asking him about he's made a comment
earlier about you'll get banned from
Amazon if you use threatenings yeah
basically they want you to do links from
your website so if you start posting
links in other places like emails like
social media they don't like him so
that's why all your links should really
point to articles or products and things
on your website and then your affiliate
things come off from there also getting
people on your site as good things you
can do other things you can show them
other adverts you can collect their
email address that kind of stuff
yeah River regard - you have server
there's some things when it comes to
business there's only so many hours in
the day and I find this a problem
there's not enough hours in the day so
you want to focus on the stuff that's
gonna make you money and stuff that you
need to work on so it's going to be
