Oh that's handy. It's been a while since I've tried mine but last I asked ours won't recognize foreign ones. They always tell you it'll take 2-4 weeks to cash but yeah it's usually a lot sooner.

Enjoying your journal by the way. Making me feel like getting back to standard SEO projects more.

I'm with Barclays and their old ones wouldn't process foreign cheques and I used to have to use the person on the desk. They were refit mid/late last year sometime and their machines were upgraded and these new ones have specific sections for cheques outside of the UK but I think it only works with EU, North America and China if I remember rightly from the buttons on the touch screen.

Cheers many, SEO has changed a bunch from what I used to do but I am enjoying this new project. Just hoping it shows signs of working come September .

• Typed up more of an “ultimate how to guide” rather than a “buyers guide” for the zero back linking domain that was around 3000 words. It uses the format I penciled out for future buyers guide. It flows and looks better than I thought it would. I still think the format needs a little work for buyers guides though. Typed up two how to based articles too.
  
• Spent some time researching Googles AMP. I have seen a bunch of people mentioning it in a few communities but it seems like its got a fair few problems so I will hold off for now.
  
• Looked into how to get my zero back linking domain SSL. As its hosted on cloud ways I can get one SSL for free so I will activate it when I have some free time.
  
• Listened to Audible.
  
• Although its too late to implement for my current zero back linking domain, I did a little brain stoming on SILOing for my next one. I’m still not sold on SILOing doing much more, if anything at all in comparison to regular internal links though. I will see how much effort it will need when the time comes.
  
• Tweaked Rescue Time a little to make it a little better at tracking me working on my domains.
  
• Turned off a few PBN auto renews that I forgot about when I canceled the BN and PBN re-bills.

Thanks for sharing and Good Luck for your future.

Following along with you on this journey. Hope it ends up turning out how you desire it to.

Went to gym, listened to audible... You keep doing same stuff everyday, you can't stick to a routine, it doesn't work that way... You need to build something, paint your way, stop doing so much yet doing nothing.

Dude, seriously, start over...

You are procastinating, in 366 days i kept learning different tasks, i own a gym, i fix my own equipment, i clean the floor, paint the wall, renew furniture, build my own stuff. Dude, you will never make money doing nothing but routines.

IMO I have learned more about IM in the time I have had this journey running than the whole four years of doing it as a side project previous to it. I have been hit by countless updates and penalties but adapt and keep moving forward.

I saw you mentioning that you DJ and use facebook groups in your comments on your profile. Any chance you could link me to your facebook groups for both your gym and your DJing? I'm just curious as to how your IM game is coming on. Its all well and good teaching yourself to clean a floor or paint a wall but its a totally different skillset to being a SMM or SEO.

• Listened to Audible, finished book of the five rings.
  
• Updraft seems to have corrupted on my zero backlink domain somehow. Reinstalled it and it seems to be taking backups without issue again now.
  
• Ran out of ideas to write about for my zero back link site so I did some keyword research. This next batch of articles will actually be based around keywords rather than just my themed articles theory. I have kept the competition to what I would class as low when building my old style sites. They are a mix of how to, best of, review, and general information keywords.
  
• Deleted a bunch of projects from my rank tracker to clean it out. Screenshotted some stuff I wanted for a possible future video on the random ranking factor.
  
• Went to the gym.
  
• Typed up a few informational articles for the zero back linking domain.

How are you managing to write so many words per day? By the time I have researched the article topic, I can only usually manage around 1,500 per day.

I pretty much treat this as my full time job even though its not earning anything and I don't expect this site to earn anything until September time if it even works. This means other than going to the gym for 1-2 hours per day and listening to audible for 30 minutes to an hour each day I pretty much focus on my zero backlinking domain right now.

This is my rescue time for yesterday...



It tracked 9 hours 25 minutes online for the day with 80% of it being productive. A few days back I updated my tracking categories so that my zero backlink domain is the only thing in my "miscellaneous" category. You can see I spend 49% of my time on my domain typing for the day that works out at around 4 hours 30 minutes. That is only the time spent on my actual domain typing/editing posts. In those 4 hours 40 minutes I managed to get 5403 typed up and published.

In addition to this, 39 minutes tracked on YouTube (I track it as unproductive time still but I watch videos sometimes about my article as research but usually its background noise, no idea how much of the 39 minutes was productive for the day in all honesty), 23 minutes tracked on amazon.com (i'm from the UK so I track .co.uk as unproductive as thats shopping time and .com as productive as thats product research), and 17 minutes tracked on random niche related domains for research.

If we guess 50% of the youtube time was productive and add everything up we end up with around 5 hours 30 minutes to research, type up, edit and publish 5403 words. These are "how to" type articles too so they don't need much product research and you can usually get the jist of a topic quickly. I use the free grammarly plugin too and its honestly a life saver when it comes to quickly fixing typos. I'm really not looking forward to typing up proper buyers guides in the future though with more indepth product research.

In addition, I was a signaller in the Royal Air Force for 8 and a half years. As part of our trade was typing, a week or so of our trade training was spent learning to touch type quickly and accurately so I imagine that helps get the speed up.

You should make an update Post which summarises all of your websites progress. I can't even remember how many websites you have now and how many have been penalised

I just wanted to post in this thread one last time.

I just want to give a special shoutout to @MonkeyJohn for being here with me all the way from page 1 all the way through to page 44!
