I've always looked at BHW's Journey section as a great way for entrepreneurs to MOTIVATE themselves by looking at a PUBLIC record of their project's progress.

With that in mind, here's my ADSENSE BLOGGING JOURNEY

I've built a new adsense blog

I've built it around 3 concepts I'm testing

- It will rely on social and referral traffic only
- It is built to maximize DWELL TIME (ie., the viewer views as many pages as possible)
- It is built on several page reads - the content is written in a self-referencing way so people have to backtrack to get the full meaning of what they are reading

This project seeks to test the following ideas
- It's possible to generate DECENT PER CLICK INCOME from non-Tier 1 traffic
- People will put in the time to read highly interlinked high dwell time content

It's only a day and a half old

So far, here are the traffic results: https://prnt.sc/nslsj8

I plan to post the income results after a week or so

Short term plans: (I'll be checking these off as I complete them)
- post 1 new piece of content every 10 days
- optimize visitor traffic volume and quality
- optimize page views per visitor
- optimize per click value over time

Great one, seems a nice plan and good stats you get there, do you plan on doing keywords research or just not yet? Good luck

No. Join niche-related groups and participate by posting curated links to build credibility. Later, I add my own posts

DAY 4 UPDATE

Stats: http://prntscr.com/ntojfj

NOTE: Days 3 - 4 = weekend. Traffic across my network usually dips during the weekend

Improvements: added a 3K word article / added more self-replicating calls to action to increase page views

So that’s about 50 page views per visitor?

Actually, it varies. But I'm shooting for an average of at least 30 page views per visitor.

Thanks for the motivation! How are you getting your traffic? I’ve been figuring it out and sometimes when I post good content, I get discourage because there’s no page views.

Keep it up bro, you seem to have a solid plan. What's your criteria for an "authority" post?
