Productivity:


Wrote & published 2 informational articles. 865 words and 1064 words for a total of 1929 words today. Still feeling like shit, barely wrote those two articles, and I'm not that satisfied with the quality of writing today. Still, I feel that it's better to publish two mediocre articles than not publishing anything, so I'm happy with that considering the circumstances.

Following you mate
Thank you for following the journey mate, support makes me work harder!
Man, I really hope that you'll achieve your goals. It's always nice to see someone that wants to change his life.

Like the Monkey Dude from Bojack Horseman said:

"It gets easier…Every day it gets a little easier…But you gotta do it every day — that’s the hard part. But it does get easier"

Cheers!
Thank you, man! I'm not familiar with the quote, but I totally agree with it! I'll keep on pushing and I know that I'll get rewarded for it at some point!
Wow, following. Best of luck
Thank you!

Hey, some days are better than others. After I started in January I've become a great believer in grinding. If the keywords are there and content is pushed out, something will happen. Do it consistently and something is being built there.

Of course, it would be best if the content is great, but you can always revisit it on a better day. I've found that it works great for me at least. Also found out that all my articles are indexed today. :D I had problems, but I did some inner links and it seemed to solve the crawled - not indexed problem I had.
 
I'm looking this thread OP, thanks for detailed explaining.
 
excellent journey bro, one question, your knowledge is only SEO, right? you don't know anything about HTML, CSS, JS or other programming language?

thank you and I wish you the best of luck.

Productivity:


Wrote & published 1 buyer intent article. The length of the article was 3036 words. Feeling a bit better today, throat isn't swollen anymore and the headaches are almost gone. Happy with the productivity for today.

I also added the code for dynamic changing of the current year in the title of every post since I use years in titles a lot. I just didn't imagine myself going through hundreds of articles on new year's eve changing the titles to the next year. It's a lot easier this way.

Hey Halch, thank you for following the journey mate! I wanna let you know that your message motivated me and made me feel a lot better today! The support from the BHW community gives me such a motivational boost, it's wonderful!

I'm very happy that you sorted the indexing problem! Let's keep pushing forward man, and we will both achieve the desired results, I'm certain!
Following this. Good luck with your journey man!
Thanks!

Thank you! Yes, I know SEO only. I dabbled with front-end web developing (HTML, CSS, JS) for a bit, but that was years ago and I know so little now that the knowledge is practically useless. It helped me a bit when I needed to edit some shit in WordPress themes and what I did today with the dynamic year change but I still don't know how to do that myself completely and need tutorials, so at the end of the day, I know nothing about programming. I would like and hope I will learn it someday since It's very useful to combine coding and IM in general.
Best of luck @RedMoonVPN

Hope your successful journey..!
Thank you!

Productivity:


Published an amazon buyer intent article. The Word count for the article is 3200 words.

Got a bit distracted by a good-looking girl that was cleaning the office this morning. I know her for a long time, but we are just acquaintances though. Guess I'll be seeing her around the office from time to time. If the opportunity arises, I might strike up a conversation with her. Still, I'm 100% focused on work, and that's my main priority. Overall, happy with the productivity today.

Tomorrow is the weekly update for the domain with all the stats for this week. Looking forward to that.

Weekly Update


Productivity:


Published 2 informational articles today. 814 and 1104 words, for a total of 1915 words written today. The little experiment with dynamic year change doesn't seem to work, so I guess I'll remove it for now.

Stats For The Site:

Before we go through the screenshots, let's see how well the articles published during the journey are doing.

All of them are indexed and show in site:mysite search except for the ones published in the last 2 days. This is excellent and I'm more than happy with it considering the problems I had with indexing.

There are a couple of articles that already received some clicks which is amazing! That's a really good sign, and I expect things to go upwards from this moment on.

Now to the stats.

GSC:

Basically the same as last week, just 7 clicks less. Still way too early to draw any conclusions. I'm actually expecting some traffic dips as google is probably doing a lot of testing for the site now as I started publishing like crazy when compared to my previous publishing rate.

Analytics

Again, really small dip. Almost the same as last week. Not expecting a large increase in visits this month. We need to wait for the published articles to kick in.

Amazon

Now, this is what really surprised me! This is probably the best week on Amazon I ever had and the most clicks by far! The number of clicks doubled compared to last week. Really happy about this, but again, we gotta wait for the new amazon articles to start ranking. Really interested in what will the earnings for the next week look like.

Summary of productivity for the week

Words written: 15,750

Articles published: 8

Very happy with the improvement in productivity. We doubled the number of articles published which is the main goal now. 8 articles per week seem to work for now. The goal would be to write 2 articles a day which would include 1 buyer and 1 info article daily. We'll see if we can get closer to that in the next week.

That's it for this week, guys! Tomorrow I take a day off so the next update will be on Monday.

Stay safe!
 
Great 2nd week!
Just keep it up for couple of more weeks with this routine. Then it will become almost a routine, and you won't find it hard just repeating it week after week, until you start seeing fruits of your work :).

Productivity:


Published an Amazon buyer intent article of 3172 words. I struggled so much to write this one... Felt like not working the whole day. Mondays are like that sometimes so I hope that it gets easier tomorrow. I wanted to add more things to today's update but I won't. I can't wait to get home and just relax.

Thank you for this post! Very inspiring and motivating!
Thank you, man! I'm glad that you found it inspiring and motivating. Hopefully, the results of this journey will make me and the readers even more inspired and motivated :D

Thanks, man! Yeah, I'm kinda getting into that routine mode now. It gets more natural but a bit more boring since amazon articles can be quite repetitive. At least that will push me to try something different in articles to make them stand out more.
 
Good luck, I'm starting similar journey soon. You're an inspiration for many who's quitting their mundane job.

Productivity:


Published an Amazon buyer intent article of 3199 words. Wrote the article easier than the one yesterday. Felt much better while writing.

Renewed hosting, domain name, and positive SSL today, so I won't have to worry about those for a while.

Good luck, I'm starting similar journey soon. You're an inspiration for many who's quitting their mundane job.
Thanks, man! I'm glad that people are finding the journey inspiring, that's one of the main goals of the journey.

I'm looking forward to your journey man, be sure to tag me when you start the thread. Good luck!
 
Mar. 17, 2021 | Day 17

Productivity:


Wrote and published 2 info articles of 823 words and 1223 words for a total of 2046 words written today. Wednesday is kind of a cheat day for me since I can write 2 informational articles slowly without any rush. I can push it to 3 info articles on that day, but I want to have a day in a week where I can take it easy and relax with a bit slower day.
 
Congrats on quiting your day job. its the first step in the right direciton and a relief but also scary. seems like you got a good grasp on how to make it. Will be interested in this follow along.
 
Mar. 18, 2021 | Day 18

Productivity:


Published one amazon buyer intent article of 3028 words and started another one for which I wrote 1098 words. That's a total of 4126 words written today, which is my new little personal record for the number of words written in a day.

I had a lot of inspiration and focus while writing today, and that's why I wrote that many words. I'm very satisfied with the productivity today and I hope that I can finish the article tomorrow and then write another amazon buyer intent article on the same day. That would be another record because I never managed to write 2 amazon articles in a single day. We'll see if I'm able to do so in tomorrow's update.

following this! keep going
Thank you man, will do!

Thank you! Yeah, it is scary since you depend fully on yourself. While it is a huge responsibility, it makes me work harder to achieve my goals. Thank you for following the journey mate, appreciate it.
following, good luch. BTW are you using shared hosting or vps
Thank you! I'm using shared hosting. I plan to switch to a VPS once I have steady monthly profits that can allow me to do so.
 
Mar. 19, 2021 | Day 19

Productivity:
Published 2 amazon buyer intent articles of 2625 words and 2628 words. The first article was already half-written, so I wrote additional 1527 words, which makes the total amount of words written today 4155.

This a record I hoped to brake and I managed to do so today. I wrote 2 buyer intent articles in 1 day for the first time. I struggled so much with writing today, and this task seemed too much to bear, but in the end, I did it because I set that goal yesterday.

The quality of the articles is much lower than yesterday, and that article quality reflects my mood today perfectly. I'm still happy that I managed to do it but won't repeat such a task again until I become a better and faster writer with more knowledge in my niche.

That's it for today. Tomorrow is Saturday's weakly update to the thread.
