Ch3stys first journey to $50/day with CB, CJ & Amazon

Hi!
Short info about me, been hustling as a webdesigner on/off for a few years targeting small business and I can't take it no more. "I want to change that, could you come back and fix that, I want another color there" and so on.

Anyway. Since a few days I've been setting up a new project, with around 10 articles on a few good keywords. (I think)
I will try to be pretty straight forward on what I have going on since most of you *for obvious reasons* aren't.

This is my site so far (-the header)
Landing page

Products page

Program page


Yes, I'm in the fitness nische and I will try to monetize this journey with clickbank, commission junction aswell as amazon.
As of today I have little to zero knowledge on how to see my stats on google, is there any free tool similar to semrush?

Earning so far:
Clickbank: $ 0
CJ: $ 0
Amazon: $ 0

I'm creating this journey to give myself some extra motivation and a good tool to follow my own history. And please excuse my english, not a native speaker/writer.

Good Luck OP

Day two:
Just ordering more articles, started to include som amazon products and started my first (probably the only) facebook campaign, just to see how people respond to the new website.

Also started to rank on a few keywords which is good. But none of my main keywords which is worse...

But slow and steady wins the race.
Instagram follower count: 271

Well said, slow and steady wins the race. All the best.

Day 7:
Placed an order of 7 new articles from Iwriter.
Started to build one web 2.0 linkbase (need content)
Been posting 4 links from 4 different outdated pr1 tumblr blogs
Been active on reddit, placed 2 informative links to my page.

Also tried to find any good off-page seo option, which I havent. Really need to gain traffic and convert into sales soon.
CB Hops: 72 (Missleading, most of the new ones is from me due to the cloaking of the links)
Instagram count: 643 (+ 72)

Good luck mate

Breakdown of organic vs paid traffic? Definitely worth tracking conversions/hops by source if you have the technical know how.

Day 8:
I GOT MY FIRST SALE TODAY.
Bought two new articles.
Dropped one reddit comment (trying to contribute with value, so I'm not spamming)
Also been temp banned on instagram.

Today's stats
Instagram: 665 (+22)
CB Hops: 75
Sales: $12.34 (CB)

Total in sales: $12.34

Day 9:
Bought one new massive review.
Got a second page rank on one of my kw's which is good. (Found out through live traffic on my website. No rank can be found on any of my free tools im using)
My Amazon links doesnt work since I cloaked them

Today's stats
Instagram: 711 (+46)
CB Hops: 82 (+7)
Amazon clicks: 20 (stuck due to cloaked links)
CJ clicks: 48
Sales: 0

Total in sales: $12.34

Day 10:
Placed the new articles.
Starting to get a small traffic from google, yahoo and bing (like 1 user per search engine and all different kw's)
Slowly starting to rank, still with zero backling due to me being a complete noob

Also un-cloaked all my Amazon links due to the error + the fact that Amazon will kill you if you cloak their links (Didn't know that)

Today's stats:
Instagram: 744 (+33)
CB Hops: 83 (+1)
Amazon clicks: 42 (+22) (Mainly me testing + a few extra)
Unique visitors: 19
Sales: 0

Total in sales: $12.34

Day 13:

Been a few boring days.
Bought a good seo offpage boost from this forum, (no useless spam links)
Bought a new article.
Been doing meatheads method (just a bit). Joined a forum in my niche, placed my url in my signature and posted relevant and uselfull comments.
Also did the same on reddit and left a link. But I dont know if this will hurt my ranking, so I stopped after a few posts. (don't want to over do it)

Got like 200 visitors, another 10 CB hops but not much.

I also found a cool method to place good links to relevant sites without anyone knowing. I'm sure many of you already know. But for you who doesn't, checkout "Hidden link method" ( I cant post links yet)

Besides that I removed all my cloaked links due all the errors that came with it.

So here is the stats so far.
Instagram: 826 (+82)
CB Hops: 95 (+12)
Amazon clicks: 66 (+24)
Sales: 0

Total in sales: $12.34
