    Website Seller's Remorse

    I had a site a sold a couple years ago that was doing pretty well. The new seller tried adding some content to the site, but apparently he didn't understand the niche at all & made the site worse. His goal was to grow the site 2x, which was very doable IMO, I was just tired AF of that site &...

    Should I buy a Starter Site on Flippa as a beginner?

    First of all: BEWARE of things that seem too good to be true on Flippa. They prey on people who don't understand the business/get tripped up by fake analytics and/or promise things that likely won't happen. Couple questions: Is this an affiliate site? What's the % commission for the products...

    Your TOP Website Getting TRAFFIC Tips?

    As se900se already said: buying traffic is the fastest & easiest to track way, but it's not effective for everything because, well, if it costs you more to get a customer than the cost of your product (if you even sell a product) then it doesn't work. In that case it's the usual of: Engaging...

    Creating a Website That Makes Money: Day 1

    Seems like you're already to day 12 on Medium. How do you plan on integrating the content from there to here? Also, it might seem more genuine that you care about helping people rather than promoting yourself if you actually edit the posts for BHW rather than just copying them from Medium. Cheers

    One month in, low CPCs, far in the red

    Unless you're an media buying expert or are getting some great advice from one, I wouldn't go for arbitrage as the first choice of action. I know one guy who used to do arbitrage successfully, and the difference in CPC was negligible. He could get enough visitors to his site to get an ad click...

    Blog posts - show the date the post was published?? YES OR NO?

    It depends. Are your blog posts evergreen content that will be applicable for years to come? I'd leave the date off as it's not really necessary. Does Google prefer older content in your niche compared to newer content? I'd leave the date for people, but backdate it to make it look older...

    what is Growth Hacking?

    At its origin growth hacking is the process of quickly helping an early stage company grow rather than simply focusing on "general marketing things," growth hackers would focus on one main thing: growth. However, now growth hacking is basically a buzzword used to sound fancy. At it's core it...

    How to improve Adsense CPC

    One thing to keep in mind is that not all CPC ads will be related to the content on your website. If a visitor is getting retargeted by someone who sells high ticket $1,000 coaching and they click on that ad on your site, the CPC will be higher than if the visitor is getting retargeted for some...

    Why GaryVee Did This?

    Used to be a time when the only thing he sold direct to consumers was his books which pretty much had the goal of getting his advice out there, showing his clients he knows what he's doing, and getting some keynotes. Lately though he's been selling and promoting more and more stuff. Pushing...

    How do you organize/plan/structure your stuff?

    I mostly use Evernote to store things/plan out things for myself, Google Drive to share stuff w/ my team, a whiteboard for long term goals/plans so it's always in front of me & sticky notes for daily todos & "nice to have" todos. Works mostly well for me. From what I've seen the biggest issue...

    Quora hack to find the best questions to answer

    A goldmine of a first post. I used to outsource this stuff to a VA as you said, and it took FOREVER. Now I'm still going to outsource it, but it's so much faster. Thank you!

    Is Medium Good For Posting?

    I do something similar to what Hasan said, but instead of having a shorter version of the article, I post the actual length version with the goal of increasing my following on Medium for now. I figure the larger by following is, the easier it will be to get featured later on, and that's when...

    Boat Advice Theme???

    For future reference I recommend using builtwith.com for questions like these. The theme seems to be something from WooThemes, but as tilberius said, it seems to be highly modified.
