hi all, this my first post and I have joined this forum to try lean as much as possible. I recently launched a small nootropic/pharma dropshipping site. At the moment I only accept bitcoin payments because I have struggled to find a way to accept credit card payments. The site was all developed by me and a friend so it's experimental but we're happy with it. We already had a few sales but haven't really driven much traffic to it. I get a few hits a day from reddit posts, facebook, twitter. I think i have covered the basic seo on page requirements at least as far as i understand them.

I was hoping maybe some of you could give some suggestions on what would be the next steps that you would take in this scenario. any suggestions for credit card gateways for small high risk sites? I have seen a couple advertised on here but would like to get a broader view of the options. i don't know if any would accept us anyway . Also what sort of seo service should I be looking at? I'm really new to this and just trying to learn as i go along. I don't have a huge budget at all but I am able to invest some money into this.

thanks and hope to hear some suggestions please
 
Hi Grffin9,
Regarding the SEO part, you need to continuously send links to the site in order to gain traction. Backlinking is an art and a science that requires time and experience to be properly executed.

Traditional SEO doesn't usually work for you niche.

You should be looking at SAPE links.
 
You could build up a fitness site concurrently, and have banners and advertising to your mailing list.
Marketing fitness articles over social media would be easier, and you would have a bigger global audience to funnel down with.
 
Yep SAPE links. And it still works but you shouldn't just send SAPE links alone which is obviously a super big redflag. Mix it up with PBN and traditional links.
alright
any good service u tried before can recommend?

ok had a quick read on SAPE and seems interesting, never imagined something like that existed haha. So how do i know how many links of each to get? And all at once etc, I have no idea. I'm not expecting you to spoon feed me despite your name , I am researching, but any suggestions of any kind regarding this process would be welcome

Yes, I have started a sort of blog on nootropics and time management. I have it as part of the main site. Is that ok or should I have a separate site?

Competition Analysis.

There are several keyword research tools available out there which roughly tells you how competitive your keywords are and how many links the first page ranking sites have,etc.,

Read https://www.blackhatworld.com/seo/are-pbn-links-the-most-important-thing-for-ranking.976027/#post-10441609 a few times to grasp what you need to rank your site.
 
Ok so I have been doing a bit of research, thanks for the info guys! I have come to the conclusion that it's all very interesting and I am keen to learn. However I have to recognise that I am way out of my depth and will need some help for my site. Spoonfeeder I know I said that you wouldn't need to spoon feed me but I think I need a little bit lol, I think it's obvious I will need to hire someone, I know you don't recommend vendors but could you perhaps help me in what sort of package should I be looking at firs. With regards to the SAPE links for example, you mention I need to mix it up a bit. Are there services that offer a sort of complete package? Say SEO analysys and diversity of linkbuilding?
Anyone else who feels they might be able to help me is encouraged to chirp in or email me too!
Thanks guys, this forum has been great so far, very helpful people and so much info available
 
Hey Griffin!

Pharma is in the category "Super Competitive keywords", together with Casino, loans, dating etc.
Since the competition here is extreme, It is close to impossible ranking with traditional SEO tools.
I have two recomendations:

-Try to attract traffic using other marketing tools than Search. (Forum posts, affiliates etc)

-Or, if you have the budget for it let a company build you a custom-made PBN based on your needs. If you DM me I can help you further.
