hello its Doug here from five-figure
niche site and niche site project I was
having a beer and I thought hey I'm
gonna do a quick little livestream here
and share another success story from a
five-figure niche site student so if you
are coming on live just say hello in the
chat I'm gonna try and be a little brief
this evening this is an unannounced chat
so just gonna highlight this story now
if you want to read the whole thing you
can follow the link in the description I
see jared is on that's awesome I'm gonna
hop over back to the chat in a second
but I'm gonna jump right in now I did
four interviews with students success
stories that I published today if you
didn't catch them do check them out most
recently published stuff on the channel
so you should be able to find it sepg we
have Bynum all Wayne all Wayne's always
on a lot of that PG PG zhan often as
well Justin's on good to see everyone
here so I'm just gonna jump into it so
this is one of those interviews that I
did it was text-based alright so Joe is
an international person she's actually
not from the US and she didn't want to
do like a live interview which is
totally cool so we have a you know a
text interview so I'm just gonna go
through and kind of read it read it a
little bit and I'm gonna you know I'm
always gonna throw in my two cents and I
see a lot of people are hopping in so
Cheers I'm having a pale ale
right now we have Kelvin and Fred and
Lance and all Wayne and I'm gonna hop
over to the stuff that I'm gonna read
out so I don't lose my focus here so
here's the question what's your name and
current profession and it's Joe from the
TV broadcast industry how did you get
started building niche sites and how
long have you been building web sites so
Joe started back in 2010 and she
ventured out and started getting paid to
build the web sites
she has also created a couple like sort
of local paper lead type sites so she
gets a commission
whenever she connects a student to a
specific coach in the sports industry so
paper lead is a totally different
business model but viable and it can be
really profitable so she said that this
got saturated and you have trouble
keeping up with the competitors and that
happens in a lot of industries where it
just gets saturated and you know you
have to keep growing or and keep
learning but as for Amazon affiliate
sites Joe says that she started in April
2017 and she joined five-fingered niche
site in March of 2017 so over a year and
the cool thing with Joe is she has been
she this is only with like 13 posts so
I'm gonna go to the punch line really
quick as far as her earnings so she's
not making like a crazy man of money but
she only has 13 posts and generally has
treated this as a side project you know
she still works in the TV industry and
broadcast industry in there's 13 posts
and last month in June she made 70 bucks
right so with 13 posts it's a minor
investment she hasn't been doing a crazy
man of work on it or publishing 200 or
300 posts but 70 bucks is not bad in
this year she's made two hundred and
twenty three dollars screenshots are on
in the link that I sent over so as you
can see I mean it's not like crazy
growth it's nothing hard to believe but
it's 13 posts doing you know relevant
you know content using the techniques
from five-figure niche side okay
how did if I figured a niche site help
you so before I took if I figure a niche
site I didn't know much about the
keyword golden ratio or formulas she
generally tried to rank popular keywords
to have a lot of competition so she
didn't really know how to have like like
use any criteria to qualify her keyword
phrases so she really didn't know what
she was like targeting when you do that
you end up going after things that are
either too competitive or maybe you make
a little mistake along the way and you
publish something and you wait
months right and then you end up not not
getting any results and you're not sure
why you don't know if you made a mistake
with the keyword research or the content
or some other thing or if it's too
competitive
so without the right criteria you're
kind of like in the dark so she didn't
know the best format to write a name is
on review either so after taking five
foreign insights she learned how to
choose the best keyword phrases with a
moderate monthly search volume so she
could get visitors and actually get them
to buy from her links so her new post or
neater and easier on the eyes for you
know people that are trying to get
information for products and they could
buy on Amazon and by the way I did I
purchased a couple things on prime day
you know just some good buys out there
all right so her results so out of her
ten initial article seven are on the
first page fiver in the top ten which I
guess let's see fiber in the top ten
there may be a typo there because if
seven are on the first page then seven
should be in the top ten she has teak to
keyword phrases that are in the first
spot her first earnings came in
September of last year so six months
after launching it was relatively quiet
until December until the Christmas
period the retail season so you can see
the google analytics and the earnings as
well so in you can see there she had a
little bit of traffic but with only a
few posts here and there she really
wasn't pulling in anything really
impressive and now she's you know going
on over a year and the earnings seem to
be growing a little bit alright next
tell us about one preferred oh sorry one
of the successful image sites so she
says my if I figure niche site Amazon
site is something I agree to love I
didn't have much experience in the niche
but it fit Doug's criteria so I went for
it I was considering another similar
niche which she has more interest
initially but she has
but it had less or fewer keywords in the
kgr area all right
so however would the small success for
next stage we'll be including a similar
niche within the same website she says
it's close enough it should be able to
fit blintz and it sorry if I missed any
went on here so Fred from Belgium Lance
from Boston all Wayne really enjoys his
success stories William says you would
really like me to help you set up a
niche site that makes you just 20 to 40
dollars a day pretty straightforward
check out the course alright that is the
bet like if you want if you want the
shortcut it's a lot of hard work alright
so the the shortcut it actually isn't
that short but if you want to make
twenty to forty dollars a day that is
well within your reach you could
probably do that in under six months and
you know there's the course isn't for
you right the course isn't for everyone
that's okay
there's tons of material on this channel
literally hundreds of hours of content
this shortcut is the course doesn't have
as much content and it's the blueprint
it's the framework to do this stuff
alright so I know there's actually a
couple students in the chat right now so
welcome everyone and see we have a
handful of folks moving on to the next
question so how much money do you make
from this site each month so Joe says
the earnings are inconsistent you you
can see on the screenshot if you follow
the link it does go up and down but she
says there's always a commission come in
and she hit the highest month seventy
dollars last month which was June all
right in Lance there's a link in the
description to five figure niche sites
that would be the you can get tons of
information and there's actually some
helpful information three mistakes that
people make often on their net first
niche site so if you go to five figure
niche site com
that is where you can get a little more
information next I asked what is the
reason for the website success and Joe
says the reason is to get the right
phrases using the keyword golden ratio I
believe good content also play plays a
big role hire good writers and always
check the
next essay should the overall strategy
for finding a niche getting traffic
making money and so on so the initial
strategy is what's described in five
figure niche site from choosing the
keyword to getting links from the guest
post now I know it's in the course and a
few people here know what's in the
course but Lance I'll mention more
information for your benefit and others
as well but just kind of give you an
outline on what's covered so there are
there's a basic sort of set of content
that is eight total units so it starts a
unit zero alright so unit zero is
setting the stage kind of prepping you
for what you're going to do all right
it's gonna get you in the right mindset
you know one is keyword research and
selecting your niche you know two is
more selecting your niche and then we
get into competition analysis where I
have like a proprietary worksheet that
helps you look at quantitative and
qualitative data so you can really get a
picture unlike what the competition is
like then unit three setting up your
site Unit four is creating and
publishing content so go over that like
the perfect Amazon review and then in
unit five applied to the Amazon
associate program so that your accept
that and not rejected very important
unit six is promoting the site doing
outreach and link building next unit
seven is scaling up and then there's
advanced units there's five advanced
units which for most people you know
three of them you're probably not going
to be getting into until you have a site
going for about a year or so but they
are advanced and they can take you sort
of said the next level unit eight
starting that Advanced section is
advanced link building I go over grey
hat techniques even though I recommend
that you don't implement them it is very
good for you to know those techniques
even if you don't use them so you can
learn from them of course they are
effective techniques even if you don't
want to use them but if you could sort
of figure out like how to blend ideas
from grey hat and use them in a white
hat way well that's pretty useful if I
if you can make it happen
unit nine is interviews with six
niche site owners talk to people like
Kevin Graham Dom Wells who else do I
talk to him trying to remember a couple
other folks that have been in the
channel Dave Fox Rob Atkinson a couple
other people to unit n email list
building for niche sites unit 11 is
beyond Amazon Associates where I talk
about other affiliate programs and then
unit 12 finally is a six-figure exit I
sold a site with a business partner for
235 thousand last year and I see a
couple questions over there but I'm
gonna power through the content that
will come back thank you for asking them
feel free to ask more cheers to the
people that maybe just join in my friend
Duke thanks for hopping on on this odd
hour one of the kind moderators so the
question to Joe is did you make a
mistake so you learned from so that we
could avoid that mistake so always check
your writers work she says that she had
a writer who were really well for the
first article but the rest weren't as
good and there were a lot of grammar
errors so always double-check don't
assume that it's correct the second tip
is not to spend too much time deciding
what theme looks best
just get the content out there to get
traffic it means time to be ranked by
Google and you know I I totally agree
with that I mean just pick a theme get
it good enough tweak it later all right
what keyword tips can you offer combined
you or a teacher qualified keywords into
a phrase with other comparison and
buying phrases like top 10 or best or
best budget for that sort of thing so
cool tip there I usually don't give that
specifically but I understand what she
means as far as content tips she says
always researched the content of your
competitors ranking above you and then
add missing content to your own so
you're sort of finding the gaps in the
content and then filling the gaps
hopefully so your contents better she
mentions that she had an article that
ranked at 5 so she researched the sites
above her and found missing parts that
she could add and she added more words
and after a few months she moved to
number one great technique by
whay and other tips for link building so
sign up for Haro that's help a reporter
out and it links you up with reporters
looking for content providers and in
return they usually link back to your
website I think there's a lot of work
that you have to do with that help a
reporter out so I haven't gotten into it
there are some you know ways you could
sort of automate it so how is this
success impacted your life I believe
that it's possible to have a work from
home lifestyle but that belief was
challenged due to multiple failures
online for a few years
however five-figure niche site is the
only thing that is working out for me
currently in the internet and her
internet life it's given her a sense of
confidence that earning money online is
possible if you work hard be consistent
and stay focused and she mentions neil
patel is a great person to follow I
agree Neil Patel very smart and next we
say that she has an Instagram account I
follow her over on Instagram so you can
check it out and you know there's no
internet marketing anything she's just
you know a person who has an Instagram
all right cool so that's kind of one I
wanted to cover be sure to check out the
full article so you can read it see the
screenshots and all that stuff my course
five figure niche site is for sale this
week enrollment is open until Friday and
of day my local time here in Mountain
Time area I think maybe a couple couple
students are in the chat so thanks for
that and I will answer a couple
questions here while I finished my beer
and then I think me finishing the beer
will signal the end of time that sounds
fair to everybody all right cool
hopefully you found the information you
need under pressure says it's the first
time seeing me live yeah I thought I'd
do like sort of different time frames
this week with the course coming out and
all that so glad you made it
cleaning things says you have a website
that has six posts you're bumping it up
to 26 in two weeks your first post has
been up for a month
it's 3,400 words long you made $0 when
will I begin making money
well I'm gonna make some assumptions and
the assumptions are that you did a good
keyword research there's no like grammar
mistakes and this written well and as
far as you making money I have no idea
all right this is a really hard question
because I don't know enough about you or
your site my guess is if everything is
going right you should be potentially
making a little money you know not ROI
positive all right but I would expect
that you probably could be making a sale
within the it's been up for a month
within the next two weeks now you got to
work for it all right and I'm not
assuming that you're not working for it
but if you just publish stuff and expect
people to like just find it may not
exactly happen you do have to get out
there and like let people know about
your site talking about like doing blog
commenting stuff like that now if it's
kgr content there's a good chance people
are gonna find it but it does rely on
the fact that you would choose a good
kgr term in which you could actually
like rank for right and then that it is
a buyer's keyword so if it's not a
buyer's keyword not gonna make any sales
right or it'll it'll be like fewer and
further between so I hope that helps and
I'm sorry it's really hard to give
advice on generic generic questions with
you and I know you gave specific stuff
the thing I can tell you is this is a
long hard game all right this this is
good everything is going to take wait
what's your name cleaning things which
let me know your name basically
everything's going to take longer than
you think it's going to take and then
patience is key all right you're going
to make mistakes since you're asking
this specific question it makes me think
that maybe it's your first site you're
gonna make mistakes so just keep that in
mind everyone makes mistakes over and
over again like Joe's story that I
shared here all right I mean she made
mistakes for you
and she kept adjusting kept adjusting
and finally luckily she took the course
so she was able to you know sort of
taken a new approach to what she was
doing so you will make mistakes things
are gonna take longer and you'll get
better as long as you you know make it a
goal to you know figure out what your
mistakes are don't make them again and
try and improve the next time a hundred
percent you will be successful if you do
those three things all right I hope
that's helpful Theo what's up good to
have you on
Kelvin says our Jos 13 post made with a
cage er I'm not a hundred percent sure I
can't remember if it's all 13 but at
least 10 of them all right I can't
remember but at least 10 Jill's on
what's up alright Duke says you have a
question you always assume that 5 figure
niche site meant 5 figures per month but
you heard me say that I meant 5 figures
per year no I never said 5 figures per
year someone wrote that in in the chat
the two two things is you know either
five figures per month right that's an
easy definition but a five figure niche
site could be for any interval of time
that you want basically within the
course in unit zero I define it as
either a website with a valuation of
five figures or more right so for
example if your site makes $500 per
month for a consistent basis say six
months or so you could probably sell it
for 10,000 probably over you know up to
$15,000 or so and that would be a five
figured you know niche site in my
definition five Biggers per month some
people you know maybe after one year
right maybe they've grown their site to
that amount but it's a loose definition
intentionally right it's pretty I mean
people that make five figures per month
are you know if you have to put a lot of
time in basically it's not you can't
accidentally do it
you're not gonna luck into it that makes
sense to all right and by the way
everyone seems to really like Dukes
appearance on human proof designs really
cool good job there and then a see
what's up from DC let's see see Gil says
can you ask a question about the sandbox
does the sandbox
start ticking once you publish your
first article basically yes
there's no here's the thing the sandbox
is kind of a loose definition I believe
there's randomness to it I don't think
you're coming soon page is gonna help
though to be helpful and answer your
question I don't think if coming soon is
not going to be helpful if you publish
say your first article and then a few
more pretty quickly like that will sort
of get the time ticking all right and do
says it takes annoyingly longer for
things to come together indeed yeah
Quinn says excuse me cleaning things
says thank you would I be able to
contact you with further updates on your
site if so where yeah okay so here's the
the thing so cleaning things I can do
one-on-one coaching and I think that's
what you're asking for if you're asking
if you could just send me emails to ask
me questions
not really alright you sort of can
contact me like the these sessions but
basically I'm very busy and I usually
just work with students so students take
the priority as the students know that
are in the chat here
you send an email you get an answer
usually within like 24 hours 36 on the
longer end you get an answer quick and
you get it directly from me or my
assistant which helps with some of the
common questions so if you're in a
consulting session yes and go to my site
niche site project comm and you should
find information of the higher its
higher - me but if you look around on my
site niche site project link in the
description you should be able to get
touch with me pretty easily including
things if you're not aware about the
course if I figure a niche site you
should check it out it sort of like
takes the guesswork out of the questions
that you are asking it just kind of lays
it out like really in a straightforward
way
all right um next next okay
Duke says oh you were just wondering
about the definition for five figure
niche site you didn't succeed
congratulations
Alec says do I think Amazon will ever
grow to a point where it no longer needs
affiliates interesting question
not really all right technically I think
Amazon doesn't need a filius now I mean
I think they'd probably make a lot of
money with affiliates and it's a great
way to funnel traffic over and I think
that's probably why they do it now I
don't in my opinion I don't think
they're going to just cut off the
affiliate program turns out unless
something like drastic really changes
because people have sites which get
traffic if Amazon like killed the
program we could all direct traffic over
to say Walmart we may make fewer sale
sales but it's more than nothing so
because we have the traffic we do have
some leverage collectively and as a you
know as a free market we would as
affiliates figure out the best way to
make like revenue from the traffic so we
would shift it over to some other source
of Amazon didn't pay it but for me Alex
is not a concern at all all right let's
see let's see what do you think Alex
what is everyone see as far as Amazon
all right there's only a couple more
questions worth a beer let's see it does
that focus well I'm like trying to
trying to tap it this is how it works
all right instead of just looks like my
hands are dirty they're not that dirty
just the camera so sharp
all right uh yeah that says so yeah
cleaning things give me shout contact me
and see if we want to hook up for
consulting session all right you bet
says what's up you bet good to have you
on quick question is it best to post
articles frequently like weekly or
publish all the articles you have at
once it doesn't matter
publish them as quickly as you can
that's what I do your guitar guide says
how much is the course first level so I
think you're asking for the basic course
so the I do go to the sales page all
right
if I just tell you like the answer out
of context it's hard to understand I
won't I'll just tell you the answer
sharing because I know you
but basically have a look at the sales
page it kind of breaks it down so it's
anywhere from six hundred dollars up to
two thousand dollars which is a lot that
is intentional for several reasons maybe
I'll talk about it after the course
launch get into the nuts and bolts of
how I arrived at that price which is
very interesting like from an internet
marketing standpoint but basically
there's a monthly there's a monthly plan
to write so if you if you don't want to
pay all upfront then it's totally fine
there's monthly plans broken out over
the course of ten months so you're able
to pay between sixty nine dollars and
two hundred twenty seven dollars for the
same sort of package they did I mention
so $69 a month is the cheapest to get in
and when you think about it alright
let's let's break it break it down a
little bit so valuations of sites are
roughly in the like twenty five to
thirty five times the monthly profit so
for example if you had a site making
like say a hundred let's make the math
easy for me a hundred dollars per month
you could potentially sell that for you
know we multiply
by a hundred you know 2,500 bucks to
3,500 bucks I'm doing the math right
I made the math easy so that should be
right but basically it's not necessarily
easy to you know get the traffic do the
work it takes time and all that stuff
but if you have an existing site and you
just need to place a framework and
understand what to work on and when and
what order it's a pretty decent
investment in my opinion now these
results that I'm talking about they are
you know exceptions to the to the rule
that no results are guaranteed I
actually get a few emails every now and
then and they say actually they say like
hey can you just give me the course for
free and then I'll pay you back later
well actually I'll explain why I don't
do that at all they say if the course
works you should give it to me for free
and then I'll pay you back twice as much
after I make all the money so that's one
aspect the reason why I don't do that is
every time I've given a course away for
free people literally don't do the work
right there's no motivation if they got
it for free they're like that's a lot of
work I'm not going to do it turns out
charging charging a premium price really
motivates people
so the completion rate for the course
much much higher and the success rate is
much much higher as I raise the price a
little bit and I tested this over time
okay so I hope that's helpful Justin my
man says do you see Amazon lowering or
raising their Commission race anytime
soon I do not see either one of those
things in March of 2017 they lower the
rates they change this structure so they
didn't like just default lower the rates
but effectively the rates went down for
most people that were already in the
program so I at the time was getting you
know sort of on the higher end of the
Commission rate which was like eight and
a half and my effective rate went down
to like five point seven five or so
roughly down by thirty four thirty six
percent something like that so because
they adjusted it
like less than 18 months ago I don't
think that's coming anytime soon but you
know who knows adjustments come here and
there all right few more questions as I
said the beers running running allow
Thomas says hey I found your site in
youtube ten days ago
awesome so far you found a niche made a
list of 20 keywords for the domain built
the wordpress blog wrote five articles
you motivate motivate me brother awesome
Thomas it's an amazing man of work if
you keep pushing you're gonna do great
what's up search engine cleaning things
what about info products about health
how would I go about that
I wouldn't alright I would you need to
go get philosophical for a second not
really that philosophical basically
anything works alright FBA works drop
shipping works you could do Kindle books
you can start a podcast you start a
YouTube channel start a blog you can do
anything right open a food truck open a
restaurant like sell things on eBay
anything works alright you can flip
stuff from Craigslist as well but the
thing that doesn't work is if you try
each one of those things and you're like
hey I'm gonna try this that didn't work
alright I'm gonna try the next thing
that didn't work either I'm gonna try
another thing then that will not work
pick something and just stick with it
for I would say 6 to 18 months or so
trying to improve along the way don't
make the same mistakes again and any one
of those things will work fantastically
but I do not recommend you try and do
like an Amazon site and then you try and
do info products and you try and build
an email list cuz you're gonna fail at
all three you're gonna do a bad job with
all three Duke says oh this is
interesting
as far as like Amazon cutting off
affiliates it sounds like in Dukes
perspective
eBay converts pretty well as well so
people would go to eBay interesting
search engine marketing says any free
guide to learn affiliate marketing yes
you're on my channel watch all the
videos it's a great education cleaning
things says Duke have you made money on
your websites yeah he's doing awesome
there's an there's a success story
interview with Duke on the channel if
you haven't caught it already cleaning
things and in fact I think I have
probably like 10 of super recent success
stories either using the keyword golden
ratio or five figure in it check
students four of which were released
today cool cool cool cool all right so
we're going down through here and I mean
