🍩 Good Sunday, Donuts!
Last night I shared on Twitter that I will try to grow my current niche website project to a level where I can sell it for at least $1M. To sell it for such an amount of money, I will have to grow it to a $40K/mo if I use a multiple of 30.
It won't be easy, especially with a brand new website. But I believe that it is a doable goal because the niche is huge, some of the products are expensive, and there is room for new competitors. I will drop every other project I work on and pour my soul, time, and brain into this project. And I am super driven by this goal. $1M is a life-changing amount of money.
Let's see how this niche website did in March 2021.
Niche Website March Project Update
For all new subscribers, here is a link to the 5 previous updates.
Content
In March 2021, I added 22 articles. Here is the type of articles I've added:
- 6 "Top 10 Reviews" articles;
- 3 single product reviews;
- 7 "Best" type of articles;
- 6 "avalanche" articles.
Link Building
I've built two links via outreach. I am testing one link back method through outreach, which I came up with some weeks ago (I think I haven't seen anyone sharing it). I will call it the "Giver Method." I will test and measure the success rate before sharing it.
Expenses
In March 2021, I paid:
- $606 for 22 articles.
For these 22 articles, I used iWrtier's and Textbroker's services. Some articles are 2000+ words, others 1000 words. The average price per 1000 words is $22, which is pretty decent.
Earnings
Here is a screenshot from my US Amazon Earnings in March.
Comparing March to February, this month's clicks have almost doubled. The conversion rate has dropped (unfortunately). However, at this point, I am not worried about earnings.
My primary goal is to grow the website's traffic. Money comes with lots of traffic. Lots of money comes through conversion rate optimization and experimentations. Let's first make some money, after that - lots of money.
Traffic
March's traffic growth has been even "steeper" than February's, which is a good sign. With the avalanche technique put in work, I expect exponential growth in the next six to twelve months.
Keywords and Rankings
We can see a bit of "keywords bleeding," but that's a normal process after a keywords rally.
The term "keywords bleeding" is the process of losing some organic keywords. It usually happens when you have a period of gaining lots of new organic keywords (usually) in a short period of time.
Talk to you next week with an update about the avalanche and KGR SEO techniques, which I mentioned in last week's newsletter.
Own your future, Friends!
