To be free from paychek Amazon affiliate niche

Hello friends. let me start this..
This is the forum i have settled finally after trying many before.
i am from India country working in middle east for a long term now ( logistics sector )
My dream to live without worrying on paycheq at least rest of my life ( btw i just turned 40 while posting this ) . I am little organised and disciplined nature so continous learning is something i love always..
I think its more than three years i utilise whatever free time to learn IOT and dream. I have tried few projects and failed successfully and lost money. now i got amazon affiliate site ( not FBA ) . site which 5 months month old. Its getting late .. i will continue tomorrow..i hope it will be an interesting thread.

Niche : i learned thats one you should not share hi . so i wll not break that rule. I am familiar with fiver platform. So most of the work done from there.
Target countries UK US etc..
Now site got twenty posts around 1500 words each. 15 posts are buying guides and rest informational articles related to nice.
Content: I tried two from BHW market place which was cheapest . i can say the quality will be that kind. Then i tried three from fiver and finally settled with one.
I find quality is much better there , then its good to order few together to save fiver's processing fee.
Revenue /Sales = 0
Costs:
Domain: 10
Site original design with 3 buying guides (2000 words each ) 100
one link package used from BHW :70
i am not in a position to tell you how effective was that but his customer service was very good.

Guest post: 10 ( through fiver)
Content: first phase: 100 (6 articles)
( its combination BHW 2 articles - 20) rest from fiver)
Since i dont know about this Seo stuff second month ie May 2019 i have hired seo guy from fiverr (I knew from past few works ) . 125 per month.
His work expected to complete in 6 months: Expected out come 20 KWs in page 1 and few sales. ( about this work its little slow and some issues going on )
Hosting : 1 year free with the developer i need to change it: Let me know if you could suggest good one on a fair fee.
Created FB page:
Created instagram: after initial few posts i could not do , basically due to limited free time i am getting .
Earlier one VA was helping me, he also created one FB page but that got banned . content was few photos from website and shared in few groups website link also included - as i said in first place these kind of things i am still learning .. so i dont know what reason it got banned. this part will be continued Current search console look like this . Thank you ...




These writing is like reflection for me.. need get up early morning as usual for the office work. Good night and see you tomorrow...

Good luck with the site, mate.

Hi thank you.. GA analytics look like this. why search console giving a different when looked at separate. I wish to understand this well. Rankings of KWs are moved up but no clicks. Now what i am thinking this ranking can be done with the help of SEO. But no clicks or no sales..How to make use of these rankings.. let me know if you could suggest something. SEO work did not do after couple of months..

Since its my first thread , there could be some lapses in presentation or flow.. .. let me continue the costing sec.. the seo guy said site need to be re designed and optimised so that cost also came additional...(no logo was there )
Site re design, logo, some new plug ins etc added: 130 ( yes later realised this could have done in cheaper way )
since SEO guy was busy with his other projects i tried running FB ads
FB ad one week cost : 25 (from this got views but again no sales )
Anyhow i was not convinced and did not try that again since spending alone happening..
I have continued getting new articles / buying guides . Now i have stopped that. As the over all cost so high now i doubt how things going to work out ..

During this process i learned how to post on website, add links from amazone, adding image etc..then bascially some yoast.
earlier I got mad and spent more time while yoast was not giving a green signal . Later on realised should not give much weight on that.
If some of really new to this , can watch this video to learn about how to add affiliate links on wordpress site.
.
Now i am learning how to use elementor theme..as posting looks like easy but the others entirely different from earlier theme.

I understand where you are coming from, I hate the 9 to 5 lifestyle too. Good luck on your journey man.

Goodluck bud, I will follow along. How old is your site in total? I saw you were showing 3 months in search console .. is that about age of site or older?

Hi Site is six months old ( six months and two days now ). But some active work done for three months only. Last 40 days not done any seo related things. I have uploaded two posts that's all.

Are you making money from that or still 0 sales?
Any profression in page rank?

good luck and never give up

So far the cost is Usd1000+

Revenue: 0

Majority of cost gone for content ( I was so ambitious on this project so thought of getting quality content )

There are additional cost but since cant say a direct cost not putting here.

But henceforth I need to write up.. free time my personal knowledge on niche is very limited.

BTW niche is finalised by the service provider after running a basic KW research. ( from WF )

After that I ran another KW research done from fiver cost was Usd25

So flow was like this.

Niche selection / Web design ( from WForum)

(along with first three articles )

KW detailed research (Fiver )

Content from BHW (few I think around 6 )

Content from Fiverr ( 14)

First back link package from ( BHW )

Hired SEO from ( fiverr) and did manual link building , forum postings. Etc..

His promise was at least 20 KWs on first page then few sales.

First two months I pushed him like any thing to get updates.

Work report was always delayed than promised. But he done some work .

For all these I use savings left from salary ( earlier did few courses to learn as well now I have stopped )

Now my salary also getting delayed and have to be careful again with spending.

Most of the company’s face same issues here. ( your one month salary is paid after 45 days ).

This why I wanted to stay away from depending pay cheq to pay cheq.

Then spent some quality time with family back at home country ..see my son growing up..

( then irrespective of long years of work one day you have to

Go back to home country there is no pension or no citizen ship offered here)

Unless financially you are not secured then friend trouble awaits there. Now back to work.

Now seo guy realised he cant get promised conversions ..and stopped working.

Now I realised getting on page I alone doesn’t make any sense ( if you expect some return ).

So that’s the position now…

thanks. 0 sales. three sales I made from my side ( of course with payment to a service provider here ) to maintain the affiliate id - so this cant consider as a sales.

I look forward to your journey and for your income to make up to your expenses. May have gradual and baby step milestones but keep up. Good luck!

How many total words do you have?

Did I read that wrong that you only have 2 post up?
