I found myself caring about traffic and money when I first started, but having money be your only motivation is not a great reason for creating sites. It's the subject matter. You've really got to love what you're writing about and just focus on providing value to people. The money will come.
How long does it take to make u money and how much post u wrote to take u there?
I totally agree with you on that!
Couldn't agree more, well said !
Agree
Perfectly said.
I almost gave up until i listened to these guys,nowadays i keep posting articles not worrying about traffic.
Can you send me samples of your articles?
@@ibrahimdude2565 noob
8 months later, how is it?
Yeah, how is it??
Well??? How long butter cup?
Your videos never ceases to amaze me. In the crowded biz opp/make money online space you and Ricky convey authenticity and talk about things that no one else does. Keep up the great work!
I notice my posts start to get some activity within a month, but they really start to hit their stride around the 6-8 month mark.
Thanks this is very helpful!
how much is ur traffic now?
These were probably just spider visits or you checking it and working on it...I do this a lot too. :-)
It's the hardest part of building an affiliate website... being patient! I can hold my hands up to launching a new post and checking google then next few days. Silly really. Now I just write and post and forget about them.
These guys are the REAL deal. I've been in IM for 15 years and they really do know what they are talking about.
this is probably one of the most sincere informative articles that I've watched. No false promises, just correct expectations. You've gained a subscriber sir!
My website was dead and had been running a year before I found your channel, I put way more effort into the content in March and today is the first time I have seen it make any money $47, thats ad-revenue and some cash from affiliate links.. to be honest I had been slacking on it because I didnt think it was going to work but now I see it make money wooohooo I am going to put way more effort into it hahaha😜👊
Marks Shrimp Tanks good luck!
I didn't know you could revive a dead website. I neglected one of my website and recently published 4 long post but it hasn't peak... May be in time 25 to 35 weeks time it might pick up.
mInes has been a year since I put real effort back into it and I make a reasonable amount of money from it and its attached store, last month it was averaging just 100 views a day now it around 250 a day.
@@MarksShrimpTanks,,, How is your website going on mate?
Mark...Please update us on how your website is doing today...Thanks!
Hi Jim and Ricky,
First of all, I am your huuuge fan. I have been binge-watching your videos since I got to know about this channel. I seriously fell in love with your videos. I got inspiration and started my own micro-niche site. too. I followed your advise and wrote a response post and then a staple post. And, you were correct, the response post is amazing. It took a lot less time and brought in tons of traffic. When I first published it on my website, Google instantly ranked in #14. I have only 2 posts till now and I am writing the third one.
My website is just 10 days old and I am getting benefit from your advice. I am a school-going student from India (14 yr old). I am blogging in tech niche but still seeing the results. When I start earning from my blog, I will surely purchase your project 24 course.
I know it was a long comment but thanks for reading it. By the way, you deserve to get 20 million+ subscribers. ❤
Every video is a gem. I like how you guys seem to find out what people want to know the answer to the most and then address it.
Videos like these definitely help put things back into perspective and give hope to the people who may want to quit or have just lost all motivation to keep going due to the time it takes to rank or see any desired result.
On behalf of all of the people struggling out there, I want to give you guys a big thank you for actually caring about the members and taking time out to provide exactly what we need.
Man I seriously never even thought of that... I always thought that the keywords you target are the keywords you get, and it would only be little random keywords that get thrown into the mix. That gives me motivation for the articles I wrote that I quickly ranked #1 for on the keywords I targeted, but didn't bring in the traffic I expected.
BTW, I found myself fascinated by that light reflected on your face. I was waiting for it to hit your eye, and was hoping for a major squint, but you were too determined and focused. Your constitution impresses me, my friend.
Also, can't wait to have you guys over in Ecuador for the weekend. Since I'm obviously going to win the comment competition.
My website is 67 days old with 12 articles, I got my first sale on amazon after 57 days. An average ratio of my article is 1500 words. Hope will see some great results within the next few months. I got 10 organic traffic per day.
Solid point about being impatient! Who isn't? ;) I'm just focusing on gathering information that answers questions and helps people out with thier intended search. Thanks guys!
I love your content! You have been so helpful in creating my new website. Patience is a key thing you've taught me - that's probably the biggest problem of mine - it's probably why I have failed a few times in the past. I'll be sure to tell you, once I hit pizza day.
I'm glad I joined project 24. Its a huge leap of faith to put that much work into a site without seeing any results at first. Seeing people that have done it before and getting step by step instructions really helps. I just focus on the next step and don't worry about the traffic for now.
@@generalkai2417 I wrote 30 posts and left it. The income started growing at the beginning of this year. I wrote another 15 and the income is still growing. I would recommend it as a good way of earning some passive income if your prepared to put the work in. 👍
Traffic traffic, looking for my chapstick, feelin kinda carsick, there's a ford maverick! That's a million dolla rhyme right there.
Great info. My site is 8 months old and looks like traffic just starting to pick up
How is your site doing today? Much traffic?
please do tell us your traffic amount or website progress
As usual a nice, grounded in reality approach. Sometimes good things take time! There isn't a hack for everything as much as people would like to believe otherwise.
Jim, great video. I’ve been waiting for this one.
I’ve taken you advice from the video you did for me and rebuilt my fishing site as per your advice. I’m now starting to rebuild the rowing site , but with a step backwards so it isn’t so niche.
I have been watching your videos been since last week. You are different from rest of the world. I can't say anything now. I will watch more videos of yours. Thanks. Love from #India
Great video. Patience really is key. Don't waste the time waiting though. Keep creating new content in the mean time so that when it starts growing it'll KEEP growing like a rocket...
You guys are awesome! Had about ten years of hard knocks and trying to get out of it. Started my first site about 8 months ago and not doing so well, but going to keep trying your techniques until I get it cleaned up. Thanks!
The reason that time to 90 percent would be important is that it will tell you how long you have to wait till you see when a change in content strategy works or doesn’t work.
Good research + Helpful content + Time = Good Harvest. As he says, we're impatient people - at least I am. Need to work on that! Thanks for another helpful video.
Thanks for sharing this. My blog is 3 months old and about 30 articles. I have not been seeing much growth but this gives me hope that it will come!
give it time and try to create more great content while you're waiting for the first 30 articles to rank and get traffic
Postpartum Period thank you. I am not rushing at all, but it’s just the hump to get over
chris bittner thank you
i have noticed that depending on site map submission and longtail keywords it can take almost 8 moths for google to find you. keep posting consistently. and think local search terms. onces google finds a few articles, you see that google will start finding more and more of your article. i also use a service called google fetch. its in the google webmaster console tool. after every post i use fetch as google, its like a ping to google saying hay new content come see me. and the google bots come running. i hope you best of luck. come say hi at www.homebiznetworks.com for free seo,blogging advice.
HomeBizNetworks.com I actually got an email yesterday about an error on a recipe from google search console so I guess they are starting to find me!
I started this finance blog but I'm switching after watching you guys. I already got me a new domain and am switching to blogpress this weekend (financial blog is on wix) I have pretty high hopes for this niche in mind. I think there's part of it that are a bit competitive but there is alot of searches that top results are forum posts like quora and Reddit. That's a good sign right?
I can corroborate the 35 weeks with at least one article I've written, and it's the most-viewed article on my site. I wrote it in March 2017 and the pageviews gradually kept climbing all the way to October 2017. Then in November, it spiked from about 375 pageviews per week to nearly 800. Since then, it's been in the range of 500-750 pageview per week. So, from March 2017 to November 2017 (around 36 weeks give or take), the traffic grew and then leveled off.
This is helpful because it level sets expectations about how fast a new website will build traffic. I've had my website for several years but didn't put much content on it until recently - starting about 15 weeks ago. Fingers crossed for that hockey stick graph result but plugging away on content in the meantime. ...now if I could just settle on a niche.
Jim,
First I would like to thank you for what you do! I have yet to see anyone else as straightforward as you guys!
Now to my question, what do you think about a niche website that is bilingual. I speak, read write English and Spanish. The niche I am in has very strong viewers from both languages, so by being bilingual will this rank my website faster?
Very honest, clients should understand this fact... thanks for your video.... TIME + SEO + CONTENT + PATIENT
Thanks, Jim
Just started a website in self-improvement & philosophy niche...only 1 week old ....6 articles and 2k page views. .let's see
This is such great information. I know so many people who've given up after just a couple of months because the blog isn't gaining much traffic.
excellent video again. The crazy thing about this information is that it's all generally the same from you guys, but people just don't seem to get it. It's all about great content and patience.
Great advice, as always. I'm curious - does editing a post have any impact on how long it takes to rank? That 35-week lag would encourage me to get a volume of content up quickly and then refine it, but I'm twitchy about how Google might respond to the changes.
I've found that editing content that is ranking poorly will only help in the long run, but if it's doing well it's better to leave or or only make SUPER minor tweaks.
Thanks, that makes sense.
I have a lot of experience with this. If you can add content and actually improve the user experience of a certain webpage, it usually has a much faster effect than producing an entirely new article. I performed major updates to my company's top 25 pages. The page improvements ranged from 50% to 465% in 2-3 month time periods. Mind you, these were major upgrades to pages that were already doing well. Going from 500 words to over 1,200, adding images and cleaner backlink profiles, adding keywords to blank alt tags, etc.
That's really interesting. Thanks, Connor.
Refreshing insight that helps folks stay focused on what Google wants folks to do--create great content. Love your expression, "a LARGE grain of salt".
Your knowledge is really practical based, and like a pure gold. Thanks for sharing
It's great that you put so much time and effort into providing not only helpful, but accurate information.
Just the question i had on my mind these days! Thanks!
HI, thanks for the video. Can you make a video on ads next and everything to know about them
Yes, I think this would be a great idea too.
I agree!! would love to find out some good ways to have people pay to display ads on the site, and some display ads. A video on this would be awesome.
Love your content, keep it up. I just had to deal with my 1st ever site hack and had to figure out how to fix it. I would love to see a video about your experience with being hacked and fixing/preventing it.
My blog is about 1.5 months old, google gave me adsense approval within a month but I don't see much traffic though so adsense is useless right now, however, your video is very inspiring & is giving me hope, atleast enough to continue writing quality articles & forget about anything else. Let's see how it goes.
How did it go bro?
Thank you! I've been searching for this answer for a long time. I will be patient. Sigh...
I'm getting decent traffic compared to 5 months ago (avg. 30 visitors a day). Now I'm getting about 150. That is great and all, but I'm hardly getting anyone to click over to the affiliate site(s) I link to. I'm not sure what to do about this? Any advice?
I know the video focus on traffic more than ranking but... I followed your great strategy of the alphabet soup on google to find long tail keywords to write about and it works, as soon as my page is indexed on google I was able to rank on the 1st or 2nd page. The problem is that a few hours later, out of the sudden, im not ranking even on top 100 anymore. Does anyone knows why is that?
great video, love watching you guys and your awesome advice. Quick question...I have around 25 articles, and the site is about 3 months old, its starting to get a small amount of natural google traffic. some articles are better than others and I'm turning those into videos, whats your take on embedding the videos on the article and do you think there's any benefit to doing this? cheers!
Just planting the seed and let it grow, great video
It takes time but when done correctly it works. Thanks the informative video.
Hey man,I gotta say this...."I-LOVE-THIS-GUY" you are educating and at the same time entertaining to watch.😁😊
Top stuff, Every time i post an article it gets index in google within an hour but it never is in the top positions, there always averaging page 2-5 of google
BTW, i am making money ($200 per month) but it took a long time.
That's where the backlinks come into play .. You reach up on page 2-3, to take it further up ... backlinks are needed Period! Google's algorithm is written around backlinks ... There is no mambo jumbo in it ... Good quality content with a few relevant links otherwise .. keep waiting ... :)
Your advice is gold, keep it up. Data-backed advice is the best :)
Thank you so much for this. Do you know if this is the same for CZcams videos since CZcams is owned by Google?
Thank you. You gave me a motivation to move on with blogging
Started in May, saw the spikes and now it’s gone a bit quiet. Seems to be right on track!
This is so refreshing to hear. All good things take time!
Exactly What I needed to know,
Thank you
This is a great video, down to Earth sincere guy, backed up by stats = credibility Thanks!
forget about traffic,but your crazy smile throughout the video makes it intresting. well i got a hope after watching this video that I have to work hard for at least 30 more weeks to reach somewhere in google to get traffic.
Another great video - Thanks! Want to be in your random drawing for Dec, 1st - Do more than wish me Luck! My son Randy Martin & I are in your Income School together. We are really benefiting from it.
Patients is a virtue! Keep pressing forward 😎👍
Your videos are so amazing. Thanks so much for sharing your knowledge.
I've gotta say that this takes a lot of the pressure off. Just keep writing top notch articles and don't worry about the traffic.
How you doing now?
Thanks Jim, glad I signed up for Income School, great community!
I am so happy that I found your channel.
Love your channel and content, and I'm very interested in giving this a shot, but I'm a bit anxious that your course is "too" US focused for internationals?! I would like to focus on the german market, but I'm guessing that there will be a lot less possible traffic, compared to the huge amount of english speakers. Also the tools and places you're suggesting for hiring writers, creating logos, even the community to check a new blog, ideas and such ... would project24 be also a helpful resource for people like myself, wanting to try this in another language and country? Would love to hear your thoughts on that.
Good question. We actually have more customers outside the US than inside the US, so I’m sure you’d be fine. The only real difference in making a specific language site other than US is that you should target a much larger topic to get sufficient traffic since there will be less competition.
Income School Thank you for taking the time to reply! That helps!
This is just what I really needed!
Thanks guys!
Hello guys, an important question that I bet a lot of people watching has to: is this 7 to 9 months until the traffic starts increasing, or to get any traffic at all from Google? For example, I have a website where I have about 15 articles in long-form format, and google hasn't sent any traffic at all, no clicks and the articles are all crawled but not indexed, status excluded. Is this normal? Its a website about how to create online courses, so there is a component of how to make money online on it. It's all benign information.
This gave a lot of general information and made it slightly more clear on the different ways to take
Just to clarify. If a keyword has the potential to bring in 1000 visitors per month. Your study says that this keyword should get to 900 visitors in about 38 weeks or so. Is that right?
Very interesting video. I think a lot of new affiliates hear people talk about having keywords rank in 3 months or so. It is nice to have someone tell the truth about what really happens so that new affiliates know that they are in this for the long haul.
That is correct. The average was around 35 weeks to get to 90% of the monthly traffic you'll probably ever see on that post. So if it's a 1,000 pageview per month article then you'll be at about 900 in 35 weeks on average.
Thank you. It is nice to hear realistic numbers. Now I feel more confident that I am on the right track. I was beginning to think I as doing something wrong. Great job guys.
My new website start getting traffic just after 15 weeks.
But some articles takes longer time.
Btw great video.
Thanks
Hello. Can you write for me? Will pay cool
Content is KING.
My website is 2 months old. Everytime I take 3 days to write a blog and pour my heart into it. The next day google indexes it and it's on page 16 everytime. I'm so discouraged any tips?
Wait for 6 months....
Like the new thumbnails. Very Swedish.
I have a blog that is of an old domain with Dr 27 as well as have 88 articles that is two month old. I have 56 keywords ranked with less than 50 page views per month and my query is how long will it take to get ranked and start to make traffic with an expired domain.
So how long should you expect to at least find your site on Google? I've got a niche blog (wix) only two-three weeks old, and I put a lot of work into design, seo and content. But key words search doesn't make my site found at all it seems. And the niche is pretty tiny...
Another great bunch of tidbits! Thanks!
Hey, I have a question hopefully you guys can answer. When I am writing my blogs I like to write a lot of information on whatever it is I am talking about and slip some affiliate links in. Should I not try to monetize all of my blog posts? Or should I find a way to make money with all of my posts?
Reached here from Ruan's channel. Awesome content!
Thanks for this video. I have a brand new fasion e-commerce where I try to Target long trend keyword. After 2 months, I have 600 pages indexed...but on web master I have no displays except for the home page. After how much time could I expect having my first visitors from Google?
Quick question. How do you track your posts ranking? Do you use a service? Or do you look at Google analytics?
You can try googling the topic for your article and see where it ranks. Just make sure you're not logged into Google when you do it so you can get an accurate representation of where your article sits.
Thank you very much.
Thoughts on a personal blog with a mixture of content? I play college soccer and study computer science. I make videos and write blog posts about both college soccer and technology (mostly software). My website essentially serves as my portfolio. Will this index as well as a niche site and is this a decent approach to building a business around a website?
I used to get high ranks within a few hours but now google has let me slide away.... need to brush up and put out some better content.
As a botanist I can say that, at least in shorter growing seasons, that one week can make a huge difference. It can be the difference between getting 2 cuts of hay, or sneaking in that third. I get what you mean though, I just know too much about plants lol
Thanks for the advice, I watch your videos all the time!
This is good confirmation... This is what I've been seeing with my websites.
Great content my friends! Really nice work!! Thanks!
Super helpful video. Thanks Jim :)
Never knew it took so long. Gratifying to know you don't need to bother with link building - personally I'd rather cut off my balls with a rusty spoon than partake in all that malarkey.
Steve Jabba I literally burst out laughing at this comment.
I think the modern term for that would be Laughing Out Loud.
Hello Jim, is it still around 35 weeks if you don't see any specific keywords for that article in your Google Console? Some articles produce the keywords straight away, and some don't. Does it mean these articles will not rank ?
I think hes suggesting that the 35 weeks is like a ballpark figure, some may rank sooner and others take a LONG time. May just be that your articles that aren't doing so well as others will just take a bit longer..Stick with it and take some pride that some of your articles are ranking, I'm sure your other articles will pick up in time.
My "good" articles are roughly in the 3rd/4th page or higher, so far I'm stoked that they're even getting there and getting traffic...albeit tiny amounts just now.
Thanks for your reply. But that’s the thing - if you look at your console, articles that trigger different keywords rank better and faster. I have many articles that don’t have any associated keywords in the console. I just want to know if it’s connected and to which extent. :)
How old are those articles? Its taken mine about a month or two to get to where they are at, some have the keyword that I selected and some have similar keywords as well.
so it's worthwhile to link build to get higher, not faster rankings depending on how it's done. i know you're generally against link building. also seed analogy, it's worthwhile to water the plant by gradually extending the article if you can, or let me know if that is bad. I have a disability and type very slow and have started expanding articles, i think that would hellohelp.
Personally I would concentrate on just getting the articles posted, let it do its thing for a while and keep writing articles using Jim and Ricky's techniques to find good content to write about.
Then when they start to get good amounts of traffic you could think about building links if you wish, its your site, just dont do bad link building.
I've been sending traffic to my articles using twitter and some reddit posts (non spammy) which helps to get views and links...which wont do any harm. Also just started turning articles into youtube videos which I hope to get more traffic from.
Also started doing outreach for a round up post which has been getting me positive results, once that post is up the other contributors will no doubt link to the post which is going to give good backlinks...but its more about the content than the links for me.
Make good content, leave it for a few months and google will figure out where you should be, content is king!
Hope that helps.
Does it matter if the keyword I'm trying to rank for is competitive? How competitive should me keyword be?
could you turn on auto translation plz
35 weeks is around nine months. Makes sense ;)
Patience xD
I know this video is a little outdated so I just wanted to ask if you still have the same position you do in this video about backlinking today? (How you don't do it)
Yes. It’s become even easier since this video. We don’t follow mainstream link building strategies at all.
Just found your channel. If I change my template on squarespace, does that reset my ability to rank on Google?
Thank you very much. It really helped me a lot...!
Linking will rank faster but not forever. Soon Google sees linking is manual (don't know how) but then rankings just drop.
That sun spot. Jim is enlightened!
Can't beat the farming analogy = you can't force growth 👍👍
Hello,
What different recommendations would you make for someone who wants to start an authority site from scratch? My blog is 2 months old and I have 18 articles.
Yes... the first page does not matter for getting traffic according to my website.
I have a websites that Two of the post gets ## Rank no.1 in google search for this specific keyword after three month.
But didn't get too many visitor. Soon I found out that after one more month it was getting many visitor to those pages. The secret was Google was taking those post on another keyword. Those page was ranking as on first or second or third page as similar keyword or question too.
Eventually Now those page is getting more traffic like you said on the video about JSON search term. Now I believe it after watching this Video. Thank you to do research like this.
@Rohit
How do you know it ranked?
