Niche site to $2.500,00

Any chance you could share what this editorial guide looks like? Obviously, it's effective.
It also helps a lot when you have $700 to invest in a 4,000 word article with writers, proofreaders, Ph.D. for fact-checking and a graphic designer team.
 
Got to know about your journey from another member's journey so following :)
 
@feIix OP Hope you aware of google YMYL update on August 2018. After this most of the health related websites are badly effected. So how come you overcome this.
  • Are you adding real author profile on all your articles?
    • If Yes, Is he real person like doctor or PHD candidate?
  • Are you planning to purchase any Health related certificate like HONCode?
    • If Yes, What is the process and how much it costs?
I'm badly struck and planning to stop my project :weep: after knowing the YMYL update.:(

Any of your advice and suggestions are much appreciated.

Thank you.
 
September 2019 Update:

In total there are...
  • 3 product roundups (Best XY) online and 13 blog posts (mostly linking to my roundups).
  • 35 root domains pointing to my site, generating a DR of 26.
  • 306 visitors that came from Google.

Gold Hint: SEO Wise it is working very good if you have relevant blog posts. E.g. if you have a Best Lawn Mower post write at least 3-4 guides on lawn care and link them to your roundup. Yet it's a simple trick most people don't do it.
 
The content (4-5 articles), that will be published, are going to:
  • be the best piece of information that you can find regarding that topic.
  • have at least one awesome infographic.
  • have multiple images, illustrations and videos.
  • have a great content ux.
  • be 3,500 to 4,500 words long each.
  • be reviewed by a PHD.
I plan to spent $1,500 for this.
$1500 for content. Could be amazing - if you can get the readers to it.
 
Since I had no time, I decided to sell that site.

All in all I made a small, profit of $5000.
 
Where do you flip your websites for 28-32 times ?
 
Update:

I hired a writer for $0,05 / word and an editor / proofreader for $0,02 / word. When the proofreader is done I already have a very nice text. To secure quality the article is getting fact checked by a PHD.

So overall like $0,1 / word. That's expensive but worth it.

When the PHD says the article is fine I'm getting my graphics department on it. They create custom illustrations and infographics. That means I'll get the BEST content out there.

Once this workflow is created I'll create 4-5 high quality articles and start doing outreach to build some links.

Following this, amazing. That's not that much money to spend to get that income, do you believe it's possible?

Why do you use upwork, rather than here, for content writers? Out of interest?
 
I'm interested in hearing some details about the sale if you are willing to share :)

Well, it was a small sale compared to what I normally do.

What are you interested in?

Metrics of the site - content, traffic, earnings. For how much did you sold it and how - using a platform or a private buyer?

I know you spend a lot of money on high-quality content so interested in if that influenced the price of the sale. :)
 
It was a buyer from my network.

Right now I'm starting a project in a similar niche, because it's still unsaturated. I also sold some of my other projects so I spent some more time.

But I don't think I'm creating a journey thread for it because it seems that there has not been much interest.

You bought a domain for $150, paid $700 for a 4,000 word article, got 6 backlinks for free, and then sold the site for minimum $5,850 when it was getting 300 organic visits per month?
 
No, of course it had more than one article and more than 300 visitors per month.

Now I'm tackling down a bigger niche, aiming at 15k / month.
