[Case Study] Launching a Crypto News Site

Nov 22 -- Yesterday , officially Big News.

Gave a popular crypto site a test of how I create news & spike traffic, through social media & news influencing.

A traffic leak job, that's consistent and REAL , organic traffic.

After seeing the content job done & traffic results: 11k+unique visitors, 1 day + gained back-link from a site doing a 1.4-illion visitors a month on SEM rush (and more) , we concluded I could be an asset to them and vice versa

Site ranks high in Google News search.
They also have a lot of direct sponsors that watch them

So, I will provide my serice to them 1-3x per week.

BENEFITS:
1 - $750 per month to help them -- this will help offset my costs for my site . Soon I can be operatinga a $0.00 expense per month with daily writers
2 - I get much needed back-links
3 - Sponsors may trickle down (I expect it) to boost income


Keep grinding people. It Pays off.
We dont have dreams & vision for nothing.

 
I'm very interested in this. I'm developing my own custom strategy tool and a comprehensive crypto trading tutorial, selling each for $500 USD a pop, already have 25 people interested and pre-registered barely promoted. With your traffic we can partner and bank $$.

Add me on Discord Tando#6035 to discuss this opportunity

Nice to see your success. Hope you get more associations.
 
I have about +20 crypto subreddits under my control, some bigger some smaller, and botted too that have a constant flow of actual users but due to the bear market not as many as they used to have.

If you are interested then I can give you free Reddit pinned posts in these subreddits. You need to create one interesting post and link back to your site or whatever and we can use bit.ly shortener for tracking the visits.

The posts are you for free but I get some data at least to know if it's worth for me to run some offers through these subreddits.

Anyways let me know if you are interested.

Sent a msg of course. Will review the subs.

Nice journey.

Thanks. Far fro where I need to be however.
 
I've been a busy man , making people successful the last 2 years.

This is the first product of my own since selling off my smart watch biz about 2 years ago. And I've always believed Cryptos would be my biggest success to date. Lets hope so.

Here's how traffic's been the last 28 days. I can make traffic rain.

Understanding Traffic Leaks , Social media influencing, and Google News let me be a POWERFUL influence on-line when I want to be.

I had a renew news report make 2 YouTubers with a total of 100k followers mention my brand. No telling how many others as I'm not hunting it. WE"RE CRUSHING IT and so much more to go.

Here's a screenshot of traffic since our first post on 8/16/22 (August 16, 2022)

Bulk of visits (23k of 24K came November 2022 after I had assurance i could have daily content ; Began influencing social media and creating traffic leaks

SiteKit.jpg

I've had at least 5 articles that did great numbers but 2 in particular went viral. Scored BIG! back-links.

YardBarker even picked up my content.... but it was from a site that stole our headline. No worries, YardBarker is now connected to my site... so we still scored BIG TIME last month

- Another site is also syndicating an RSS feed from my site currently



Article count ------------------

369 news articles posted thus far
0 interviews posted


earnings------------------

4x Sponsored posts so far: $180 (gave it all to writers .. included in above expenses)
1 collaborative deal: $750 per month ( ~$550 is truly going to my site howeve; Helps me cover expenses at least)
PROFIT: $0.00 . I wont take money until site hits 4 figures

Domain Stats ------------------ 12/6
Domain Authority: 19
Page Authority: 22
^ moved up another 2 points since my last update on November 22nd (i believe it was)

Google News Status------------------
Totally approved. All content now shows up in Google News. I need to produce a certain level of content before I show up in the general search however. It's still getting "Generation 2 search" only, where I have to type "site;domain.com" to see stats; However, Google's ranking my posts instantly now and it's ranking high in open niches I find low to no competition. And I get traffic.


Traffic------------------

11/14/22 - NEW HIGH! 3875 users visited site
Low retention still but I feel great, just knowing the branding process is reaching nearly 10,000 people monthly
~6.3k visitors this month as a whole and this count will be doubling or tripling by end of month
Growth of ~4,175.5% compared to the 16 days before this month


Last Goals (checklist)
11.1) Reach 10 posts daily ... Still struggling but once I have the money, this will be sealed
Did This 1x, it def makes a difference. I REALLY WANT A TEA TO DELIVER THIS DAILY!
11.2) Prepare interview questions for Crypto brand
11.3) Get 2 Sponsored posts for November
11.4) Get 3 CryptoNews.com back-link/mention
11.5) 50 unique visitors daily avg (10 is past)
11.6) Get Twitter / Instagram content flowing (telegram is going well)
11.7) Begin planning on YouTube channel / Launch Username
11.8) Get subreddit content posted daily (almost done with this)
11.9) Create a Tumblr???? Hmmmmm....
11.10) Catch up on the unique artwork. I wasnt going to add images at all, at first but now I willl. Googles just not ready for an imageless news site. All of the imges blog site uses are done in-house. Custom. Vector.

Still hoping the Crypto world doesn't crash. People dont realize, this type of stuff has happened before. However, Government regulation is coming. That could hamper how the money's so abundant currently.
 
Hello, thanks for the update.

what do you mean by “traffic Leaks” ?
 
Hello, thanks for the update.

what do you mean by “traffic Leaks” ?

What is a Traffic Leak? What is Traffic Leaknig?​

This is essentially another phrase for targeted marketing or placing your content in front of a targeted audience at the right time. And the traffic isn't from SEO or paid
 
Crypto World is in shambles right now.

But money is still being made.

I've had a conversation already about selling my overall project and also about a merging.

The merger idea interests me even though I'd not have ownership in the other project. I just trust the ownership of it.

Otherwise, nothing really noteworthy to update. FTX has pretty much taken over all headlines. Really digging to try and find things more positive and innovative.

Google News Status------------------

  2. Now taking photos & doing short videos of physical coins in various locations to continue publishing only ORIGINAL images/photos
  3. Getting someone to handle a critical issue with site today, improve the SEO & site speed. Hoping this will help me win over google but also fix an issue that popped up with the site.

As stated before, I've been wanting to launch a crypto news site with staff.

It's been done now. It's complete and rolling.

Key Factors:
1) Name branding was amazing! I have 'Crypto' in domain name.
For me, it was extremely hard to do this for a .com . Try yourself and see what you can find available. I'd love to see what people come up with name wise.

2) I plan to invest $X,XXX per month in site staff. Dedicated writers. I already have 1. Another has given spoken agreement they will start. Working on a 3rd & 4th. Will likely have 6 people involved in long run.

3) Exclusives: I'm connected with some crypto coin market brand owners and celebrities. Ill have some 100% exclusive interviews that will be only be available on my site and I'll take sites down that violate.

4) As a veteran internet marketer at this point, I know how to get posts distributed all across the web. I know how to get syndication pick-up. And of course include my own site in crypto news on other sites. & More.

5) Will launch social media communities as an added benefit .

Ways to earn:
1) Press Release features
2) Social media promotions
3) Other promotions
4) 1 adsense cube

Early Project Goals:
- 1000 visitors in first month; I was thinking 10 days before but I need to work out bugs pushing content to audience with the potential to go viral
- Keep site free of multiple ads
- Get first 4 writers rolling and consistent

Long-project goals:
- 100k+ visitors monthly Before 2022 ends.



A lot of opportunity in Crypto and I just hope I'm not too late.
Will you also have your own shitcoin? Good luck YES there is still a lot of opportunity!

Very nice journey, so far. I was actually very close to going all out with a crypto property as well, but I redirected my focus to something else that's been weighing heavily on my mind that I really wanted to work on. Wishing you all the best, and I'll pop in from time to time. You've got this! Keep'r goin'!

  • PROFIT: $0.00 . I wont take money until site hits mid or high 4 figures
  • Haven't moved on profits during holidays and will likely not do so until next month because I've been so busy with typical personal things, plus moving.

New reveue:
- just applied to join coinzilla
- going ot start setting up pages for commissions
- Nothing from Fiverr yet. Going to apply myself a bit to try and get this money source going.

Domain Stats ------------------ 1/16/23


  1. Domain Authority: 21
  2. Page Authority: 33 (+1)
^ with the 'www' added; my back-links count is different
Backlinks = WWW:1000+ vs 56.
Quality backlinks = WWW:53 vs 41.

Google News Status------------------
Still in generation 2 Status. But closing in on a goal that should change this.

Content & Traffic------------------

  1. Just set up social media profiles: Youtube & instagram created. Telegram group is on auto-pilot. Starting to reply to others' twitter posts to build our audience.
  2. Made my first IG reels post, announcing our profile being up. Over 150 views. I can see this being very beneficial.
  3. Hired a guy from Fiverr to improve site performance and fix some layout issues.
  4. Thinking of adding Coin prices / etc to site.
  5. Now looking to build out some 'how to' pages
  6. We've keyed in on generating 'daily articles' that analyze diff token prices, etc. VERY GOOD For consistent production.

    Last Goals (checklist)
    11.6) Improve Twitter / Launch IG

    11.7) Launch YouTube Shorts
    11.8) Subreddit had an issue.. have to relaunch.
    1.6) 75k visitors by end of January 2023 < probably wont happen. Need to do other things before shilling/pushing brand
    1.6) Now taking photos & doing short videos of physical coins in various locations to continue publishing only ORIGINAL images/photos
    1.7) Getting someone to handle a critical issue with site today, improve the SEO & site speed. Hoping this will help me win over google but also fix an issue that popped up with the site.

Next goals?
1.8) 10+ post daily
1.9) Just purchased figurines to create more unique photo content and will also have some very HIGH END photos with international backgrounds; hoping to blow away the crypto world and send some art viral
1.10) Create 3 instagram reels daily using my short videos

side note: Just bought a secondary domain name to prepare my next project after this is sold. Want to start the ball rolling on the page having content and being up but nothing that will take heavy focus or more than 30 mins daily.

I've believed Crypto would be my biggest project since being in the Affiliate marketing world.

I've KNOWN. Just hoping i can get this site maximized before next big bull run. 6 to 7 fig sell of would be nice and a life changer for me. I've been working & playing too hard. Now I need to find the stability. 2 homes from this project is ideal.
