Hey, will totally be following this even if it doesn't work out fully.

You should make this a monthly thing, with new sites. It's a really good strategy.

Also how hard was it to find a niche? I'm totally lost on what kind of niches I can churn/burn with.

This is not a churn/burn project. I plan on having this site for a long time.
For niche I did not dig in a lot. Just went with a random kw i was familiar with in the gaming niche

Nice results. You should not stop building links, keep building them slowly.
Also did you built links to youtube video or it ranked itself?

I did some on-page optimization and then built around 3k GSA backlinks to it and around 200 likes to the video. I already have around 3k subscribers on my Youtube channel so that may have played a part too

It's Serpbook.

Gaming niche? So in the fake generators niche or what? I used to be into that and could probably still make a crapload of money but I find it really immoral so I don't do it anymore

Good luck and so far great results

Saw a major decrease in rankings today. A few keywords which were in the 20's-30's went out of the serps.


I've heard normally when such a thing happens they come back stronger with a better rank. Lets hope the same is the case with this one.

Aww damn dude you were on your way to first page.

Which websites do you recommend for general SEO?

I currently use Moz, Majestic, Ahrefs, and some more. I've been out of the game for a while.

I heard Serpbook is good, and Pingdom?

I've heard Ahrefs is good. I don't use any of them though. I use OpenSiteExplorer and Majestics once in while to check website stats.

Serpbook is good. I have no idea about pingdom.

UPDATE
Yesterday when I tried visiting my site I got a red alert stating that my site contains malware. I checked in the serps and saw that Google is displaying the "This site may be hacked message" below the result.

I have got a guy from Fiverr to clean it up for me since my hosting is asking a bomb to clean this up and my Webdesigner seems to be busy as well.

So I am losing out on money until this thing gets sorted out.

I think this might also be the reason for the serp drop.

EDIT : I am officially out of the SERPs. None of my keywords can be seen in thr TOP 100 now. I'm now going to clean this up and submit a reconsideration request.

Shit man so sorry to hear this.

Hope your site gets back up.

30 days are almost over. Only 2 days to go.
I took an oath that no matter what I'll be executing a method till the very end irrespective of the results I see along the way.

I am glad I did it. I haven't hit page 1 yet but I am close.Very close.

I cleaned up the malware on my site. I was very tensed because I this was something new to me.
Luckily Google approved the reconsideration request within a day and my site is now up to where it originally was. Better actually.


I'll be waiting for a few more days. If it doesn't hit page 1 then I'll build a few more PBN links to it. Hopefully, that will get it to page 1. #1 even, maybe.

I plan to build my very own PBN and web 2.0 PBN. I'll have to refine the process of searching for those web 2.0 because it's getting really hard. I guess I'm gonna need a strong VPS and loads of proxies.

Also, I plan to build a lot of such hack/cheat sites. I know a lot of people find them unethical but I personally don't see a problem as long as I'm not scamming them out of their money. The main reason I prefer them is they do not require me to have a lot of content. I cannot afford to buy content atm and writing it is really mundane and pain in the ass if you do not know about the topic.

Anyway, it's early to discuss all that considering this site is not generating any revenues from the SERPs. Overall, these 30 days have been quite awesome. Got to learn quite some awesome things within a small span of time

All of the keywords are on page one.



March Earnings


I was expecting a major increase in traffic. However,I guess that is not the case. I'll have to break into Top 3 to get some serious traffic. Getting about 100 UV's daily.

Also,I see a drop in my conversion rate. I had a 10% CR with Youtube.However,it has dropped ever since the traffic from the SERPS started rolling in. I'll embed my YT video on the LP now. I'd appreciate some other suggestions as well.

I also plan to create country specific subdomains and put a geo-redirect on the LP to increase conversion. Hope this does not affect the ranking. Lets see how it goes. Will update later

Good stuff man. But yes, you will need to get in at least top 5 to see some more money rolling in. Never give up. You're doing great.

Whats the volume and keyword difficulty (from any tool) of your keyword.

It would be much more help if you can provide from where you have bought your services. ANd what are your monitory options Adsense , Affiliates or what... {Sorry if this is a bit noobish}

All the Best man hope you will bank hard soon.

Awesome rankings man, btw did you put more links to that website or did you leave them at 10 pbns and 10 web2.0's ?

The main kw has about 3k US monthly searches and the kw difficulty according to kw revealer is 17. I'm monetizing it using CPA

I added 10 more PBN's so that brings the total to 20. Also,apart from the PBN's and Web2.0 I also did some manual comments and bookmarks to add to the diversity

UPDATE

Bought 2 Reddit accounts today with high link karma to run a parasite experiment. Ordered a GSA blast on both. Once/If they rank I'll leave one as it is and put a clickjacking script on the other(which will probably get it deleted but will get me a lot of traffic while its live.)

Apart from this, I plan to drive traffic to this using Social Media (FB,Twitter,Youtube Comments,Instagram,Pinterest and a few more).

I was thinking about this site today and figured out the game hacks/cheats is not something I want to do in the long run. I started this site because it was easy to setup and I did not have to spend on the content.

Although, I don't feel bad that the people who complete the offers don't get what they are promised,(lol.I'm a heartless cunt) I just feel that if I am investing this much time,money and effort into a site and SEO then I'd rather build a site which provides real value so that I retain the visitors.

I'll probably sell this site once I see a good ROI

Hey Man! Another question, did you buy expired domains or pbn posts or did you find them yourself? Thanks

any updates? Im also on the same boat as you are.

Hey OP. Good journey to follow along on. Hope it has gone well for you.

Seems legit. Waiting for the next update. Let's hope it's all good news. And hey, don't worry about money spent. I'd spend any amount of money (not very rich) to get experience of failures. They teach you somethings success never will and it is those lessons learnt from failure that help you make serious bank on the internet.

UPDATE

So these are my rankings. Achieved them a few days after the last update but now they have completely stabilized. I am done with this site. Not gonna build anymore links. I know if I do I can easily get the #1 spot but I am kinda unhappy with the ROI, so I won't bother. This months earning is a little under $300

I tried ranking a subreddit which i created for the site but it is nowhere in the serps.lol

I absolutely loved doing a 30-day challenge without keeping a monetary goal. I'll start a second journey thread soon. I have 3 other projects in mind right now I can work on. I'll select one and focus entirely on that project/website.

Apart from that 2 of my uncles have approached me to design websites for them and rank them if possible. One has a machinery business while other is in the printing business. So apart from the 3 projects which I plan on doing I now have 2 local sites to work on. Im gonna do it because this can possibly get me more clients through word of mouth as both of them have decent contacts with people running actual brick-mortar businesses.

Very interesting journey thanks for sharing. Looking forward for the next ones
