This is a good point, both of his methods can be combined for some great results!

Ordered Plat + 10 PBN to an old authority site stuck at #5-10 for about a year already with no linkbuilding. Should be an easy move up, let's see what happens.

Will give it a shot on one of my older sites that's a bit stagnant now. PM me the coupon.

It's more about figuring out the target audience not the specific product. I.e. if you're promoting hammers, you wouldn't look for a hammer forum. You'd look at construction, home improvement, DIY and maybe cars etc.. Think bigger.

Can you guys imagine how much money this thread has made people in the past 15 months? Astonishing work Meathead :)

Keep going. If you don't get a sale by 200 clicks then you should be getting worried. Just scale up the clicks and you'll see the results soon enough

That and focus on higher quality traffic sources. That's probably the main factor.

Might be a bit problem because too big forums get posts too often so your threads will not get traction. They also may have stricter posting rules.

It's pretty clear if you read the original post - you have to choose some kind of affiliate product. Check out clickbank for example or maybe even Amazon Affiliates.

You kind of bring up another really good point - it makes sense to create your forums accounts ahead of time, before actually posting so it looks more trustworthy.

What would you say was your #1 breakthrough when it comes to this method?

Actually keywords virtually don't matter with this method since you're counting on forum traffic for the first sales. Basically the more competitive it is in search engines, the higher your odds of success.

In my experience linking to Amazon.com actually has higher clickthrough rates because people recognise it instantly and trust it.

It's pretty controversial, I've avoided it for two reasons: 1) In theory could get you banned on Amazon. 2) People actually do trust the Amazon link a lot, so it's good for our business.

This is probably the easiest way to get started as a beginner and the money is definitely there, I made over $400 in the first month with a brand new site doing this when bored.

Totally agreed - just start doing something and you'll learn a ton. Even if you screw up with the niche selection, you'll be much further than before and will probably still make some cash. It's not like you're marrying a niche - go on a few dates first and try it out, haha.

Yeah I think so, but you should use TablePress or Thrive Content Builder to create a table for all 5 products - that tends to work better than individual reviews for "top/best" posts.

Check out author hreview - it's probably the best out there.

Having competitors with affiliates sites is an amazing sign. Shows that you're able to rank for the keywords. If it's only huge sites like toptenreviews, wirecutter or Wikipedia, you'll have a tough time.

You're better off choosing something sustainable all-year-round for your first project.
