Awesome journey! I've read the first 42 pages a few months ago and just now read pages 42-62. Great stuff!

How do you get accepted on Adsense or Ezoic tho? I've seen a ton of sites scrapping PAA or StackOverflow or Quora and they all seem to load Adsense/Ezoic/etc ads. I applied with one page for Adsense and got rejected. Another page I got accepted on Ezoic but Google Admanager/MCM rejected me.

Do you temporarily set up a fake/legit looking page, apply and once approved change back? Would that work? How often do they re-check?
 
Hi Satre, need your advice. I have a 1 week old domain, not even a .com. As with all PAA, they are low volume but also very low competition. My posts are struggling to rank even for the first page. I am seeing positions >50 in GSC.

Is this normal and am I overthinking? Do you build any backlinks?

you work on EAT. set up awesome front page and about page. Check the top 20 performing articles, and those who appear on first category pages/frontpage and human-edit them and make them look good. Apply until you're in.

wait you're asking if it's normal that you're not ranking after 1 week? I'm usually not building backlinks. only for a few sites that are top performers.
 
Hmm, seems my fresh domain site got sandboxed? We have started to get indexed in google and had around 3k indexed pages when one day all but 9 pages left, is this to be expected from a simple PAA copy-paste site, is there any counters to this or how to avoid it in future? And the main question is will we be indexed again or is it permanent? :confused:
 
I assume you use ACF to automate FAQ schema?
How do you post via wp rest api to acf fields?

I'm not using ACF. a little custom PHP function.

wait, so you had 3k pages indexed and suddenly google deindexed them? I don't work with copy paste content.
@Sartre Does it make sense to buy an aged domain, but without backlinks and authority?
for the age itself it gives a little advantage, especially if there was a site of the same niche there before. I mostly buy domains with great names for the aim of building a brand there later on.
 
do you think this kind of business will last long-term? What would you do if you had money to invest. Something that would work for 5-10 years?
 
@Sartre for fresh new registered domain how many post per day would be good to publish per day for good indexation in google and in order to avoid the google sandbox.

dude. this is such a big question. i can't tell you what will work in 10 years. Maybe there will be thermonuclear war. I diversify and invest in everything. I'm blogging, I'm youtubing, I'm trading domains, building sites for people, I'm building another SaaS, etc.

I would start with a blog, turn it into a brand, and make a Youtube channel. Reinvest the profits into other things.

I'm not going to comment on investing in stuff like stocks/crypto. I wouldn't do that anymore. Businesses all the way. Even if Bitcoin kept growing as it did 2 years ago, I would still outpace it constantly by building small online businesses. The online value and margins are insane. You can build a million-dollar online company in 6 months nowadays without hiring anyone.

To be fair, I invest in some weirder assets because I have an exceptional knowledge about them - rare gems, collectible cards, and watches. But that's an exception to the rule. Even if I don't make a profit on my watches, in the end, (although I doubt it), I'm not going to cry. I need to spend the money. Money in the bank is the worst thing ever.

I could write a whole article on Google Sandbox. But I don't have the time to do this right here right now. Let's just say that, IMO, it's not what people think it is and amount of posts and indexation has nothing to do with it. 200 posts/day + ping using API.

This is the kind of thing I want to see. May not get to a million, but not that I'm not chasing it either.

Any chance you give me a guideline? Must not be in your niche. Just the idea how to readjust my thinking and take it from there. If it means inbox, it's fine
 
It's a long process and a complicated algorithm. In the end if you want to be 100% sure you either need a human to check the articles to a second AI that evaluates the quality.
I am interested in hearing some more about the italicised part if you can share. This is the part that takes me a lot of time manually reading through and editing a pegasus paraphrased article. I tried looking into python libs like readability and other stuff but they didn't seem to fit the bill as they just show comprehension level which, when I would check the articles myself, doesn't correlate with the quality in terms of how well it is written.

i mean. my way was to learn coding and marketing and then just make a project every month for 5 years until something picked up and I REALLY learned how to do this stuff.
this topic is start from 2021 ...How is your income so far?
the income is in 5 figures monthly now. I'm going to start a second journey for a site that got into MV recently to show people how I'm scaling it.

it's not comparing phrases. at this point I have a model that is comparing my generated answer to a highly rated answer found online using ML.

This means that in the course of the 5 years, you may get into different types of projects. Because as you are on it, Google may strike your present line or it may become obsolete, income wise.

I have many different ideas on how to optimize stuff and scale, but I don't know coding, and to be honest, I also don't want to learn it. Will be 50 next year and I feel I'm late to the party and must not learn. But also getting people to agree to go into coding my idea hasn't been easy

I have a bit of trouble understanding what you're saying exactly.

I'm diversifying a lot so Google can't kill my projects because a lot of them aren't based on organic traffic.
