Update
Ive been building out 2 new affiliate sites
all sites are in seasonal fashion niche
so all 3 sites target similar products
but the content angles are different
1st site is pure affiliate product listings nothing else --> its my legacy site
2nd site is new its single product review posts
3rd site also new its problem & solution posts with affiliate product links
all sites are very different from the others
i have a lot of work to do
& google is coming down hard on thin content
so i guess its time to dive into AI

Lets go way back
ONE
I was advised (on this forum)
--> by somebody i have respect for
that my affiliate strategy wouldnt work
TWO
I couldnt find a single site
that was doing what i was planning
THREE
I took a big risk
spending the time to set it up
FOUR
I didnt know if the tech would sync
if i could fly with free software
or if i had the ability to run the show
FIVE
All of my previous business attempts
ALL OF THEM
had ended in failure
Until i joined this forum
in summer of 2020 with no cash
well behind on my bills
empty refrigerator
---> so i had no choice
Maybe i got lucky
but i spent 1000 hours trying
and i hit a green light
im not sharing the website address
--> cos im gonna try the same thing again
---> & cos of the industry relationships it could break
but theres 100s of captures
at the internet archive
& someday i will share the whole story here
---> its an epic story of affiliate success
as in
it got me out of debt
So then lets fast forward 3 years
i have a choice now
im ahead with my bills for once (thanks in part to @T J Tutor & @Graybeard & couple others)
i have a full refrigerator
so theres no urgency
thats whats needed now
URGENCY
cos my struggles are all self inflicted
i hit the oil and get bored
its the hunt for oil i thrive upon
What im thinking is this
when im loaded i get lazy
& when im poor i get motivated
maybe its time to partner up?

ThisEventually, sometimes sooner that anticipated, those 'wells' become low production or inactive --we used to call those stripper wells. Point being, the work never ends until you are senile or dead
It happened over and over
i hit a popular trend
product was hot
web page or image or video got 1st in Google
the clicks & actions sky rocketed
& the cash rolled in
then the trend fell away
the clicks & sales dropped
--> the money stopped
point is
like @Graybeard said
everythin has a expiration date
--> my mistake was not acting faster
& getting new lines
should really have a spreadsheet
with top 10 lines
& hit those every day 1st
but also watch the wave cycles
chillin this weekend
bunch of dangerous sports
then its ON
