My Online Travails - Need Help

[lily S]

How do I start?...OK I hope I ain't breaking any admin rules in this little rant, I just need your help, views and whatever.
Always wanted an online biz for years and after I graduated and got nothing much to do decided to put all I have into a biz. Bought an amazon affiliate store and an auto content site. Laboured on this for about 2 years building links and trying to market it...traffic but not a single dime for about 2 years and more...until I gave up the hosting and domain. After I bought 4 other sites but no real results.

I decided to take matters in my hands, studied a few courses. Web design, affiliate marketing and lots more after which I built my 2 current sites and its the same story after some years of labour...writing content, building links, searching for target traffic.

This moment, I don't know what I am doing wrong or why its all not working out. I read about success stories a lot and yes i am really happy for you guys making it big but i am here still stuck. Feels like I just going around in circles.

Currently I am about to discard these two sites I laboured on for a microniche site I am about to buy...I am not again starting up from scratch as long as it will work out....but I need your opinions, advice or whatever has worked...ANYTHING PLS.

I can't send a pm but if you willing to see these two sites I am about to do away with I will share them.

Pls any help..

And admin sorry if I broke any rules

For general knowledge, you're unallowed to sell these sites if that's what you're intending.

traffic but not a single dime for about 2 years

Perhaps you should analyze what you could be doing wrong and adjust your processes.

As a BHW member with the knowledge available to you as being one; two years and no earnings is unacceptable, especially with the many spoon-fed methods others have shared here to earning with Amazon.

Try a different niche, target less-competitive keywords, curate better content; all things you should try before dropping out of the affiliate space altogether.

Also, use the search function; you'll find methods others are using to perform with Amazon.

I'd share some but don't have time at the moment; will only take you a minute to find guides that'll get you on the right track.

Try to stick to one thing, even if it is hard. You need to be laser focused and reverse engineer your competitors' sites. The beginning is the worst when you have no idea if what you are doing makes sense or not, you have to wait for the results for months. Later it becomes easier as you have more experience. Websites need at least 6 months to gain traction, don't quit too soon. It is completely normal to struggle when you are starting out, just keep experimenting and don't give up. What kind of websites are you working on?

Looking to start out again with some micro niche sites...was previously working on the health niche, trying to monetize with clickbank and other affiliate links.
Tnks dear

Health is a very competitive niche. If you don't have the necessary budget/knowledge, in my opinion, it is better to start with something easier (or at least that's what I did).

Yes...totally agree with you. Almost all my sites have been in this niche. Will try out easier ones.
Tnks again
