  1. tested out new beta rollout Ubersuggest AI copywriting tool
Hey, glad to see the momentum building up. How do you find the ubersuggest AI writing tool so far? Is it any better than the likes of Jasper, writesonic and so forth?

Was your site hits by the Google May core update? I would assume no given that yours is more like an hybride ecommerce (woocommerce) type?

Keep pushing!

All are effected as quality and frequency of content is what is evaluated, no matter the structure of the site(s).

tried out the Ubersuggest AI tool yeah
it works
but not a standalone tool
you need to do editing after
but very good start
its beta mode right now

I take ZERO interest in core update hype
unless it comes DIRECTLY from official Google channels
the rest is propaganda to me

How I make money from Google images
Its cold & Zoe who is out walking her dog wants to buy a scarf
she loves the feel and quality of cashmere
her favorite color is sky blue
& she loves the tartan pattern
Zoe sits down at a cafe with a mug of warm cocoa and goes to Google & searches Google Images on her phone
her search "sky blue cashmere tartan winter scarves" returns a page of results
one particular scarf worn by a female model stands out
Zoe taps the image
she lands on Honeybadgers scarf affiliate website category page
she is very pleadsed the site loads in 2 seconds
and impressed with the professional logo and sleek design
the H1 title is "womens sky blue cashmere tartan scarves"
the page description is "Shop for high quality womens sky blue color cashmere material tartan pattern scarves from all the big brands like bellemere, dior, dolce & gabbana, gucci, gap, burberry and lots more"
Zoe sees the scarf she liked and taps to read more
shes so happy that Honeybadger put loadsa information on the page
secretly shes very impressed that Honeybadger has gone to so much effort
optimizing all the images with detailed descriptions
cropping all the high quality low file size pictures to load quickly on her iphone
writing in plain English with no spelling mistakes
but Honeybadger is just happy that Zoe is happy

Zoe scrolls through the 6 product images
then reads all the detailed product information
finally she watches a video of cashmere scarves being made
Zoe is ready to order the scarf so she taps "buy product"
she is a bit surprised that a new website loads
but all is well because its Amazon.com and shes already logged in
Zoe gets some product recommendations & fills up her basket
her basket total is for $200 and she pays up
meanwhile Honeybadger gets an Amazon Associates report
the report says somebody ordered 2 scarves for $80 & some eye liner for $20 & a fancy kettle for $100
Honeybadger receives 6% for the scarves and 1% for the additional products
$80 x 6% = $4.80 + $120 x 1% = $1.20 = $6 commission

similar versions of this story happen to me again & again & again & again & again & again & again & again & again & again & again & again & again & again & again & again & again & again & again & again & again & again & again & again & again & again & again & again & again & again & again & again & again & again & again & again & again & again & again & again & again & again & again & again & again & again & again & again & again & again & again & again & again & again & again & again & again & again & again & again & again


you can do this too
simply find a quiet place
order a large coffee
and START
cos if you have an internet device
& speak good English
you can just copy my method
--> Ive shared nearly everything I do
plus you can ask anything I left out
whats stopping you?

Two things:

First of all, I have no idea when you or @T J Tutor sleep!

Secondly:

Can I earn $2,400 per month by Christmas?​


Yes, of course, absolutely, no question in my mind, please don't have any in yours!

P.S. I find products via image search. It's sometimes the only way I've been able to find where a particular product can be purchased, it's a great search tool.

enough time for sleep when we are dead
I mean 8 hours is optimum
but so my strategy is sleep 6 hours weekdays
means am losing 10 in the week
can take 5 extra hours in the weekend
Saturday & Sunday
think @T J Tutor is super human
doesnt need sleep
its so funny with images
cos my competitors steal eachothers images
try to watermark all over them
to stop other competitors stealing their stolen images
but all forget to optimize for SEO
I watch all this play out and dont copy any of it
instead I go to manufacturer page on youtube
grab 6 or 8 high quality unique screenshots
optimize each image like on a schizophrenic person level
then I have unique optimized product images
they rank top of Google Images
& cool people like you click them
the best 1 is when they post a picture
but the file is png not jpeg
so the file is 3 mb instead of 100 kb
imagine that multiply by 10,000 images
my competitor has 30 gigabytes to store & load
but I only have 1 gigabyte to store & load
end result is my image gets @azgold clicking on it

DAY 57 -->

Project Goals
June Goal --> $600 commission
Last 30 days --> $640 commission (106% of goal)

Quote of the day
Its not over when you LOSE its over when you QUIT
Unknown

Progress
  1. $640 affiliate commission past 30 days
  2. daily traffic dropping on 2nd affiliate fashion site
  3. need to fix broken links (found in Google Search Console)
  4. gonna spend 1 hour daily on YouTube Video Creators channel
  5. posted new 1,000 words pillar content on 2 dead affiliate blogs
  6. got my draft format 4 affiliate product videos --> storyline sketched
Christmas
195 days until Christmas guys
have you got a plan?
start creating your content now
even if its in draft mode
get ranked early 2 reap the rewards
 
2614 /15
174.26

2614 /7
373.42

If this is organic search engine traffic

15 / 2614
.0057
7 / 2614
.0026

Your site may be being boted and scraped BIG TIME --those are really bad numbers IMHO for organic traffic looks like fake clicks --unless the economy has really gotten that bad now?

Hundreds of tool users checking your website maybe?

Don't feel bad: my push traffic from DE is 40% questionable t-ipconnect.de proxy or tor --I just discovered. Maybe $12.00 worth but it distorts your metrics badly.
 
Hope you know what you are doing here with images that are copyright the original publisher.
Meet DMCA and it's consequences if you get caught doing what you propose doing.
get what your saying
but Im promoting their products
& making them money thru high quality content
following brand guidelines (generally)
dont affiliates generally get carte blanche?
never had a problem so far
all my sites has this catch all emails
never had 1 email about it after 2 years
 
I could be wrong about products
getting into Google Trends again this week
need to start ranking solution list log posts for
the customer pain points
--> forever changing
& promote only the best products
its raining --> i need to stay dry --> how to stay dry in the rain?
its cold --> i need to stay warm --> how to stay warm in winter?
so my Google Trends search is like this
"how to"
"where to buy"
"where to"
"what can i"
"how can i"
"what is the solution"
"how to fix"
"best way to"
problem is if trend is emerging
then Ubersuggest wont show search vol
if trend already exists on Ubersuggest
then I can use Google Trends to calculate uplift in traffic
still its a good way to get blog content titles

Finding an 'expert' in WordPress? Software for what?
just getting distracted
cos editing blog posts is way boring
nothing wrong with Wordpress
 
whats your main reasons for hating Wordpress?
code kiddie (c0d3k1dd13) exploits I don't even have an install :rofl
they mess up my reading of the server access logs

other reasons
  • I used WordPress years ago when I was a novice and every install got hacked or the install failed for some reason.
    It's better now but I don't like being someone else's guinea pig experiment.
  • Too slow PHP+MySQL for all the site --too many database requests.
  • spaghetti code --too limited for me
  • I am not a form-monkey I know how to edit a website
  • I know how to rsync (what is FTP :rofl) a whole domain that I develop on one of my local servers/computer towers/'workstations (if you will)'
  • I have been coding for 20 years now --learning the basics myself took maybe 10 years.

Which is the money page?

I have often had long discussions on this topic with some of our contemporaries. In our content marketing realm, we find this is based on conjecture often as the money pages often turn out to be closely linked to a topic in the headlines.

I posted an article a few months back on lux destinations and I had links to another article I wrote, "Know the Local Wildlife". Turns out, that was the money page for the on site funnel for the particular type destination.

It's amazing to follow the path with heatmaps. I'll do a heatmap follow along for us in the coming month.
