Hey Friends.
I have a small project which gives me headache from time to time, maybe you guys can help me out.

I write every now and then on a technology blog when I have time and desire. The blog earns almost nothing (5$ per month / adsense) and I lost more and more interest in the blog or the topic.
In the meantime, the number of visitors is increasing and I'm thinking about continuing to work in this area because the main topic will be extremely important in the future.

If you see these numbers attached, do you think it would make sense to scale this German technology blog further?
So far I have only written a few posts here and there, but no guest blog posts or anything like that.

When did you start this? Have you checked if your links got indexed?
My first post is from Summer 2019. I have never uploaded in bulk any posts, just from time to time.
I have uploaded a screenshot. Should i be concered about the not indexed links? They look like bot commands without any clue about the content in the title.


How many posts does this blog has?
Sitting on 125 posts now, very few of them were google trends which got visited a lot for a short time and afterwards the trend dissapeared.

Your average position is 23 which is good. I would scale it.
 
since the topic will be very important in the future you should definitely build up your blog's authority to position yourself as an expert in that niche when the time comes.

And yeah, your earnings are pretty low for the tech niche, but then again, you only get 100 visitors a month, so it's not bad. With more content and better rankings you'll definitely earn more. And if your traffic is good and consistent you can monetize it in other ways (ecom, display ads, etc). The important part is that you grow your site's authority (you can do this with very good backlinks from relevant sites / articles in your niche) and its topical relevancy (which you can do by covering all relevant topics in your niche)
 
So you have around 100 visits now and less than 150 articles. You should not give up writing because as you said the niche will be valuable in the future so you will be benefited with that. Try to pump in more articles if possible. Because once you increase the number of posts it will naturally fetch more visits.
 
This is your shot at a future authority site. The average position of 23, bruh!!! This is a goldmine waiting to be mined, just take it more seriously, discipline yourself, and go to work.
 
did you build any type of backlinks?
No, not yet. I'll guess i have some homework to do here.

@Everybody here: I didn't expect so much positive feedback to be honest. You guys gave me a lot of positive vibes and helped me a lot.
I will try to publish more regularly and try to scale that beast up. Lets see how my journey will continue.

That's how this community rolls, just read more especially in the Journey section, you'll learn so so much.. Things you'll typically not find on Google... Here, everything's here.

Yeah you should publish more content at the same moment start build the link in this way you can achieve your target quickly
 
Looks promising, keep injecting it with helpful and original content then as your domain ages things will only get better.
 
Your blog has the potential to go forward but only continue if you think you can continuously work for at least 6 months without caring for the results.
 
I think you should. It seems that your interest is dying down precisely at the time that a lot of people are finding your content online.

This is a very dangerous juncture for any kind of online publication.

There are many different ways to go from this point forward and a lot of them can lead to dead ends and outright failure.

One of the worst things that you can do is to stop producing content.

More and more people are seeing your stuff.

Your traffic is picking up, but there's not much new stuff to consume.

Another dead end is to just blindly outsource your content.

If you're just outsourcing content and the parameters are to basically just write on certain keywords and and not news or the latest developments in your tech niche, you probably may not get the results that you're looking for.

I would suggest that you partner with other bloggers in your niche and see if they can write content for free in exchange for backlinks.

Another alternative if you feel you don't have much time is to do dictation blogging or dictablogging.

Basically, just take notes of the news items that you feel compelled to speak about.

Once you have your notes together and you're clear as to the overall message you're trying to get out, put the microphone on and read your notes quickly until you can dictate a full on commentary article.

This is what I do to produce over 25,000 words per day.

If I can do it, you can do it too.

I would suggest though that you use human transcription because there is quite a bit of editing that needs to be done.

If you were to transcribe your dictations using software, the amount of time you need to invest to edit the transcript pretty much cancels out whatever time and stress savings you may have enjoyed.

I will try to do some guest posting first and get in touch with other bloggers. Maybe i can get some backlinks. I guess i will write some more stuff while waiting for replies.

My blog kinda exploded overnight, 2 days after starting this thread. Super weird i didnt do anything special.

Yeah, write more articles, and go in-depth. Build your website as an authority. That's the way to succeed!
 
Your feedback went into the project, as far as i can see the project is on a good way.
