- I was always of the opinion that Facebook was a lost cause when it came to niche websites. I focused on organic traffic 100% (and still do for the most part), but I've come to discover that maybe I was being hasty when I came to the conclusion that Facebook was worthless traffic a few years ago.
In this video I talk about what I've been doing to use Facebook as a traffic source for my niche websites, and if I think I can make it profitable going forward...
Super useful. Thanks, Jesse.
Hey Jesse, great to see you back. Always love your vids.
Thank you for the video, I have a request to make, can you please make a complete video about snippets ban and what did you do to get them back?
Hey, any updates on your strategy? Perhaps a new video?
Big fan Sir, please try to upload videos regularly. I am learning a lot from your videos.
Or maybe you can try making a course where we can learn all these traffic hacks to grow our sites.
Hey Jesse, Good to see you back! Quick question. Do you ever have indexing issues? If so, what do you do about them. Manually entering URLs into GSC only allows 10-12 per day. Any suggestions that I can do that won't put me in the doghouse with Google? Thanks!
Great stuff. So interested to see how it pans out. How big is your site to share so many times on Facebook?
2 different sites. 1 with around 400 or so posts and another with around 550. But as I mentioned in the video, you can share the same posts multiple times
Cool. I might try this out but on a smaller scale. I’m thinking listicle style articles might do well.
im doing something similar with LinkedIn
80 SUBS AWAY...
Awesome! How much did you spend per follower?
I’ve found that it largely depends on the audience you’re trying to attract. I’ve got one page right now bringing in followers at .02/follow and another closer to .15/follow. You’re likely to get charged according to the value of your followers.
@@NicheInformer thank you so much!
Do you write click bait Title for Facebook traffic
Have you experimented with FB ads that drive traffic directly to your blog posts?
No, and I'm not going to with this strategy. The ultimate goal is eventually stop running ads... You want to own the audience, similar to an email list. What you're describing would be difficult to make profitable with display ads, and you'd be reliant on running ads forever.
That makes sense. In fact, I’ve never seriously considered paid traffic in any of my projects for exactly this reason.
The one scenario I have considered it on, however, is as a kickstart for traffic early in the site life. Which brings me to my other question: why pay for likes to a Facebook page where eyeballs and engagement are still captive, subject to the whims of the platform? Is it significantly cheaper to pay for likes and Facebook page engagement as opposed to paying for clicks off the platform over to our website?
You run into this problem almost anywhere you seek traffic whether it's Google not ranking you, Facebook not showing your shares to all of your followers, or Pinterest. This is just another strategy to get traffic. PPC advertising just isn't going to be profitable with display ads almost every time. It's going to be for if you have a high paying affiliate offer that you know how to convert, or you're selling your own product. Yes, I'd say it's significantly cheaper. I should hopefully reach a break even point in a few months after stopping ads then it will be all profit.
Hello sir, where are you? need your guidance videos 🙃
Hey I’m still alive. I just haven't been making any videos lately. I'm working on something new that I will reveal on this channel 🙂
Hey, I'm still waiting for new video. Any updates on when it's coming out? @@NicheInformer
sorry friend, life got in the way. Google HCU rocked my business and I'm trying to right the ship. In relation to this video, I'm currently working on monetizing Facebook reels.

Blogging is in a tough spot right now, and it's hard to figure out what Google wants.
Recently, I checked my old keywords and found out that a one-year-old website with not-so-great links and authority was beating me on almost all my keywords.
Surprisingly, this website's traffic has shot up like crazy since August, reaching 1.1 million visits, according to Ahrefs.
I'm not sure what to do anymore. It feels like all the hard work I put into my 2023 content has gone to waste.
The frustrating part is that new websites with questionable content and places like Reddit and LinkedIn are the ones getting all the top spots.
What do you think about this? Do you think regular folks can still make blogging work, or is it just too tough now?
