How long would it take for a website to get indexed on Google?
Getting indexed on Google?
this can take 1 day
and I'm not joking
because you create a perfect website
then you connect some software
--> Google Analytics
--> Google Search Console
then you upload a sitemap.xml file
now Google knows about your website
and if it likes your website
it can be indexed straight away
And how long does it take to show up on SERP?
This is a separate question
because being indexed means
just that your website is included in the directory
but getting served
this means your website shows up
for keyword searches
and I cannot answer this question
because I do not have your keyword list
or your website address
and cannot check search volume
or ranking difficulty
too many variables
for a simple answer
Keep asking questions
it is good to flesh this out
and many people read this thread
so it is good for many people
 
I want to explain more about this list
why it is so important for SEO
and something cool I learnt today
--> you can copy and paste tables
from Google Drive > Sheets
directly to Affiliate Fix posts !!!

Affiliate SEO ResourceHow it helps you learn affiliate SEO?Weekly Hours
Google Search Central DocumentationThis is a website created by Google to help you learn affiliate SEO by providing technical documentation and publisher guidelines not to mention free tools including Mobile Friendly Test and Rich Results Test and Page Speed Test< 1 hour
Google Search Central BlogGoogle updates the official SEO blog about 1 x each month which is not very often but worth SEO affiliates subscribing so you stay in the loop about important technical updates< 1 hour
Google Search Central YouTubeGoogles official SEO YouTube channel has nearly half a million subscribers but only 10% of them actually watch the weekly 1 hour long SEO Office Hours Hangout sessions which are very technical but also very useful for serious SEO affiliates plus there are some other useful SEO update videos from time to time< 2 hours
UbersuggestThere are many SEO rank tracking tools to choose from and I use Ubersuggest by his holiness the pope of digital marketing Neil Patel< 1 hour
Neil Patel TrainingWhatever SEO rank tracking software you use has training and its normally free or included in premium packages so it makes sense to take the training courses and get to know the important features whether its Ubersuggest SEO training (with Neil Patel) or Moz SEO training or Semrush SEO training (with Backlinko founder Brian Dean) or some other SEO rank tracking software training< 1 hour
Neil Patel BlogThe reason I like the Neil Patel SEO blog is it contains so many digital marketing actionable tips that not reading it seems like a dumb thing to do when I want to increase traffic and conversions (while we are on the subject of conversions you are cordially invited to visit the new Conversion Wise website set up by Affiliate Fix founder Oliver Kenyon and they run an excellent YouTube channel all about increasing your conversions even if it is kinda weird that you cannot subscribe to it)< 1 hour
Neil Patel YouTubeLove him or hate him over 1 million people follow Neil Patel on YouTube because he knows what he is talking about and if you follow his advice you can skyrocket both your organic SEO traffic and your sales< 1 hour
Yoast SEO AcademyIf you use Wordpress to create your affiliate websites then you probably use Yoast SEO plugin free or premium which is easily the best Wordpress SEO plugin (all the others are inferior) and so you should take the free SEO Yoast courses (and premium courses too if you are advanced SEO) to get the most out of this amazing SEO software< 1 hour
Yoast SEO BlogThere are so many reasons to subscribe and read the Yoast SEO blog which keeps you update with things like the latest Wordpress and Yoast version technical changes plus SEO tutorials and actionable SEO tips to improve your affiliate website and climb Googles rankings< 1 hour
Yoast YouTubeOn the Yoast YouTube channel are regular short SEO tip videos which are really useful and also monthly SEO news progams which last 1 hour and are boring as hell but you get some very powerful SEO tips if you can stand the super boring presenters and their weird Central European humor< 1 hour
Total weekly learning time -->Less than 7 hours

Quick update
my affiliate commission for Jan 2022
across all my websites and networks
is now $752 --> paid Apr 2022
= 9% of my overall affiliate income goal
which is $8,333/month by Dec 2022
but I didn't reach my break even goal
of $2,000 during Jan 2022
which is both a disappointment
but also predictable based on my input
--> I have launched 3 new websites
over the past 24 hours
total number of active sites
now stands at 7
the rest are on the back burner for now
but I want to reach 10 active sites
by Monday night
so thinking about which 3 to reactivate
 
I keep a monthly spreadsheet
of all my 12 affiliate websites
--> some are more developed than others
list is arranged in alphabetical order
columns are related to traffic and income from ads
top is a combined total for each column

Project Targets
  1. February 2022 target --> $1,000
  2. Break even 2022 target --> $2,000/mo
  3. Overall 2022 target --> $8,333/mo
January 2022 stats
  • Total number of Search Impressions --> 238,789
  • Total number of Search Clicks --> 5,512
  • Total number of Indexed Pages --> 2,941
  • Total number of Page Views --> 15,105
  • Total number of Ad Clicks --> 1,166
  • Total number of Ad Sales --> 90
  • Total Ad Revenue --> $7,655.62
  • Total Ad Commission --> $768.81

Henry Miller said in his 1957 book
Big Sur and the Oranges of Hieronymus Bosch
“One's destination is never a place but rather a new way of looking at things”
Its true and am looking at things differently now
take my new website builds for example
I start with a blank HTML page
in bold font H1 the question
in paragraph font the answer
and everything else added must contribute
to providing visitors with the best answer
this is a new strategy
and always the final question before publishing
--> how does this help the user?
 
Quick update hommies
most of the sites are indexed by Google
actually have more like 20 sites now
many are in the same niche
promoting the same products
so I have 3 sites listed in Google top 10
for the same product
each site with unique content
--> unique writing, unique images, unique videos, unique reviews
pretty cool huh?
Anyways I use Google Search Console
and I extra promote popular search queries I get
anything that pops up under 'Impressions'
so all sites are moving higher in Google
and some are already getting traffic

One more thing
I'm already planning for Christmas 2022 !!!
Got some sites online
spending a couple hours each week
--> to build my ranking profile
way ahead of the competition
 
Update
20 sites online
all different niches --> all things I have experienced in life
18 indexed in Google
using a simple system
  • website with pillar content
  • woocommerce shop
  • publish blog posts
  • embed products from Woo shop
  • clicks = commission
Getting real precious about time now
one hour of my time needs to generate $20 min
round about $950 commission due in 4 weeks
this is peanuts
a disappointment
pocket money
but its going in the right direction

--> Again! SEO Guys! Check IMPRESSIONS in Google Search Console
if you start getting impressions THEN HIT THAT SH1T
--> with everything you have <--
blogs - images - videos - podcasts - social - links - products - audio - wallpapers - infographics - ads
you may think I am some nut
--> but it really works

  • Strong use of automation & artificial intelligence
  • Manage entire project myself from a smartphone
  • Keep software costs below $1,000 per year
Commitment

i've benefited too
 
Going through all my old posts
looking for templates and checklists
found this nostalgic post from Dec 1, 2020
had totally forgotten about this
here it is again -->

Passed $3k target on the final day
I'm listening to this awesome song
To everyone following --> it's possible
Set goal your goal, choose date, make plan, then act
Only stops you is when you say "I quit"
It's about discipline & belief inside
F*ck the odds, just embrace the challenge
I'm not smarter than you, the secret is I won't quit​
 
Updated Target
I want to generate $6,000 commission per month by December 1, 2022

FrequencyPer Site Commission20 Sites Commission
Daily -->$10 -->$200
Weekly -->$70 -->$1,400
Monthly -->$300 -->$6,000
Yearly -->$3,650 -->$73,000

Here are my milestone goals for the rest of 2022
going up by a dollar per day each month per site
and I think its achievable

Month of 2022Daily Commission per site (avg;1 day)Weekly Commission per site (avg;7 days)Monthly Commission per site (avg;30 days)Yearly Commission per site (avg;365 days)
March$1$7$30$600
April$2$14$60$1200
May$3$21$90$1800
June$4$28$120$2400
July$5$35$150$3000
August$6$42$180$3600
September$7$49$210$4200
October$8$56$240$4800
November$9$63$270$5400
December$10$70$300$6000

The challange now for March is simple
20 affiliate websites
--> each earn $1 daily commission
 
If you can make the success cumulative with a low (attrition or churn) rate then you will benefit long run.
But if it becomes get and give --and requires constant new ideas to maintain the pace --then the return ratio v. the effort will get old real fast.
this is peanuts
a disappointment
pocket money
