[JOURNEY] Road to $10K/Month Dropshipping Revenue with Organic Search Traffic

Hello guys,

I hope you're doing well and you're enjoying the weekend!

I'm running a dropshipping store. At the moment my traffic source is paid advertising with a nice ROAS. Now I want to add organic search traffic as a second source. The main reason for that is that I like the idea of putting in the work which will pay multiple times in the long run. Another, secondary reason is "splitting the risk" - If one traffic source isn't working properly the other one will still bring in the revenue.

The platform where I'm running my store is Shopify. My strategy is to find low competition KGR keywords in my niche, translate them into English, search for the top results in Google, translate them back into my own language (german), re-write and correct the grammatical errors and pass them to 2-3 plagiarism tools to make sure it's an unique article. I will embed article related products directly into the blog, so that the reader can add them to the cart and check out very easily.

What I have done so far:

• Researched KGR keywords with the in-built keyword planner of Google Ads
• Wrote the first article

What needs to be done:

• Structuring the blog properly - It's a little bit tricky with the Shopify blog/menu
• Indexing the first article and my product pages for Google ranking - I have requesting the indexing through the Google Search Console already but so far the new pages aren't listed on Google when I search for site:exacturl
• Researching more keywords
• Writing more articles

This journey is to exchange and learn from each other, hopefully inspire other people around here and also to keep myself motivated even when my paid traffic source is working well.

If something isn't allowed to be said, just let me know. I have been reading posts in Blackhatworld since 1-2 years, but wasn't actively posting myself here. But I'm a very active member in another big forum, so in general I'm familiar with forum vibes 'n' rules

Cheers!

Good luck on your journey, mate. I will say that I tried Shopify too, and many people from the forum will wonder that what I haven't tried because I am always commenting on threads saying "Done this, done that" lol. It didn't work out for me as I was just learning about FB ads. Fast forward 6 months, I learned enough about FB ads that I could even run BH ads. Currently taking a break as advertising needs money which I am short of atm. This journey will be a nice motivation for those who wanted to try out dropshipping but didn't have enough to spend on ads. I did some KW research in my time but I guess I was too lazy. Enough about me, show us what you've got. Good luck once again!

Thanks a lot!

Yes, paid ads is all about cashflow - the most important part is to manage even just to break even in the testing/development phase.

Absolutely, there are a lot of ways how an online store can make the revenue. The market is big and traffic is everywhere. If someone has a smaller bankroll it doesn't need to be paid ads, organic just takes more time.

I think he means BH = Blackhat

I'm writing a few more articles right now and hope that those articles get indexed faster than my first one.

The indexing is my biggest challenge right now. When someone has a few tips on how to speed up the process, or at least actions that I can take on my end so that I can make sure I have done everything what's possible, I would appreciate your advise!

I already posted the article on the stores' twitter & instagram account. Would posting it to more social platforms and websites help with indexing?

Did you give up already?
