...if we don't count a linkbuilder.

Post

SUMMARY
Start date: Mar 2020
Niche: Finance
Num of articles: >600

HOW: Made kw research with free tools and used his own knowledge about the niche. Planned to make 10k per month in 2-3 years but managed to reach that number in just 1 year, after making 13k in February 2021. That same month he was reached by a competitor who offered him around $450k for the site, he declined. Soon after the site rankings started dropping and$$$ dropped to just 3k per month as big competitors started taking his keywords.

He tried everything (content outsourcing, agencies, scaling and all failed. Finally he has found a worthy link builder and made big posts with custom graphics and such, which required hours to be made.
After worthy and shitty investments totaling $50k and a few months of hard work and waiting he has reached $235k off 225k pageviews! 92% affiliate

Says that his competitors continue to produce shit content and all his strategy is great content + links.

Going to buy condo in Asia and getting the site to 500k per month, planning to sell at least for 15 million, but believes can bring the evaluation up to 40 mil.

That's it folks!

looks like a good plan to me

finance is one of those niches where i can really see great content tilting the scale. folks wanting to learn how to trade will take care of who they are learning from; they won't just read page 1 of google and call it a day. i will pick the first thing to pop up if i am checking what toaster to buy, and i won't care how well written is it or who wrote it. a learning journey for something complicated and risky as trading implies a very different way of picking the content to consume.

 

[Richy1]

Does anyone here actually have a guide on how to do this? It all sounds impossible to do. It seems like so many variables need to be right.

 

[Destorchy]

Sounds like a good dream come true. Good for him.

Too good to be true. Starting from a brand new domain and suddenly in 1 year you are making $10k a month and in 2nd year $200k a month?!

Come on, we need proof lol.

GSC, ahrefs and semrush screenshots lol.

 

[Deleted member 1501362]

Damn, I want some more proof on this. Some screenshots or sumn

its pretty fishy that someone could be so successful with SEO in a YMYL niche (finance) within 2 years.

not saying its impossible, but SEO takes years these days, especially in YMYL niches.

he also hasn't responded to any comments in the reddit thread and his username has "meme" in it.

Maybe it's just a "social experiment" to see who is that naive to believe that and then sell them a course or something like that.

Could be like "filtering" your audience to see who is gullible enought to believe that and then sell them crap

I wouldn't be surprised to see the op of the reddit thread full of PMs asking "how to do it" and then redirecting them to some scam pdf

 

[Kyle Veit]

Wow, this is very interesting. I wonder if it's true

Yeah, when you write "case studies" it seems very serious and people think you are telling the truth.

 

[LuckyGamble]

I will write a case study of how I went from 0 to a million bucks with seo in 3 months!

Nothing but quality content!

 

[wankawonk]

plus its suspicious that anyone would publish a case study about a method that is generating 7 figures revenue

you strike gold like that, you're gonna keep your mouth shut about how you did it.

Not suspicious, i do it every day to help people.

I win around 100k per month easily and help 1000 people per month reach the same goal.

Not suspicious that a stranger on the internet is giving these infos for free to strangers.

Now buy my course dear

 

[LuckyGamble]

He said how he did it, content + backlinks!

Nothing suspicious about that

Definitely a thing you shouldn't outsource to AI.

This is a great example of what all of us should aim for. $40m. But you only need 1/10th of this to be happy about the outcome.

I believe 1/10th of it is realistic and doable. Doesn't matter if that case study is fake.

Like for real, guys I used to hang out with are now 5 figure money makers. And they aren't doing anything special.

These days $10k/month is akin to being "a good freelancer". Some people can hack their way to get 10x that number and that's beyond solo freelancing realm.

6 figures on monthly basis? Hard s*it and you shouldn't trust anyone who claims they get it unless you've seen the process IRL.

I smell something fishy going around

that's me, sorry

 

[crainichum]

Is almost impossible this story..... Like it takes a lot of time until you ranked and to rank so fast and be able to make all that money seem fishy at least
