- Article 4 - 3166 Words.
- Binge watched a bunch of Anastasia Blogger's YouTube videos to try get some ideas for Pinterest.
- Managed to get a new organic traffic record for my niche site case study domain again last night, still, sub 30 but it's growing and not even 3 months old yet.
- Put some cash into a stocks and shares ISA, it's just using a Vanguard fund right now while I try gen up on stocks but I might just leave it with the fund rather than try do stuff myself to keep it as hands-off as possible. With the new lockdown in the UK, I'm thinking of just changing the goal of my online stuff from traveling/digital nomad to FIRE asap so been reading up on that a bit today too.
- Crypto is heating up more and more so I added more of my accounts to the BAT system as people have been donating BAT to my YouTube channel.
- Finished planning my new article template for the way I want to try informational articles. It's probably going to take much longer to write these articles as they are higher word count and need more research but I want to try get 10 on ASAP as they have decent potential for Pinterest and Google in theory.
- Spent some time building out pins for my legacy content as well as the 3166 word article from today using my new method.
- The UK is going back into lockdown and it seems reservists are being activated for it. I havent been activated yet but it might throw a spanner in the works for the next month or so if I do but I dont have a drama helping out if its needed.
You are earning consistently and with constant efforts. This is an example of the tenaciousness that our newbies need to recognize. Unfortunately, too many are too lazy to make the effort.
Congratulations on an award winning strategy that proves to be a winner! You have a great future in the business!

- Made test pins for my new theory for pulling Pinterest traffic.
- Started planning out a domain that I want to start in January based around focusing on pulling traffic from Pinterest rather than Google and the plan seems to be coming together well so far, just need the initial tests I have online to go well so I have a little confidence that it will actually work.
- Spent the rest of the day catching up with offline stuff that I fell behind on when I was sick a few days back.

Look forward to the pinterest experiment. I've been playing around with pinterest sending traffic to cpa offers. Nothing serious but it seems like it could have potential.

I'm really looking forward to it to be honest, take a break from worrying about Google and worry about Pinterest instead.
- Heard back from Ezoic about a article type that I want to try but wasn't sure was ok with their network. Its basically quote images for the niche of the domain to try pull traffic from Pinterest with very little words on the page of my blog for it but they explained the conditions and how their system works so I want to give it a try this week.
- Made more pins and I am finally catching up with all of the articles I have published for the niche site case study now.
- Started to try a duel to do list system where I use Google Calendar for deadlines and each morning I write down goals for the day in a notebook too. It actually worked really well today but i'm not sure if its just because its new so I kept checking my notebook but I have noticed I havent been checking my digital to do list app much recently.
- Planned the Pinterest only traffic domain a bit more and its coming together nice as well as made plans for how I want to move forward with the domain from August too.

Good advice
I use Google Calendar w/desktop & smart phone alerts
Google announced new program called Google Workspace last month
It's scheduling tool integrates all Google apps
Think you have to pay after 14-day free trial

Basically taking today off but I did manage to get my niche site case study video online.
Cheers dude.

- Realized that I may be able to blend my Pinterest plan and Google passages plan into one article type so spent some time playing around trying to workout the best way to integrate both in one and I kind of have an outline to move forward with but it took way more time than I thought it would.
- Did the initial article prep for the first Pinterest/Google passages hybrid article and typed up 500 words for it.
- Did the initial outreach for my blogger round up video for November.
- Went into IFTTT to try make some new recipes but it seems they have gone over to a paid system now and you only get 3 free recipes so decided against it.
- Finished planning my blogging/YouTube strategy for 2021.
Cheers dude

Cheers dude, I just type my content up directly in Wordpress right now, I used to use Surfer SEO and may go back to it though. If I do flip over to using the iPad Air rather than my Macbook I may start to use Notion though.
I use Trello with their calendar module activated.

- Added around 2100 words to the article I started a few days back and published it, total word count is 2652 Words.
- Noticed a drop in traffic for pretty much every site in my portfolio but I think it might just be due to so many people watching the US election and people on Reddit are reporting the same. My rank tracker says that the ranks for my articles have held so i’m not sure what else could have coursed it but I will keep an eye on it over the coming days.
- Made a bunch of new pins for the article that I published today. I also checked the Pinterest account for my niche site project and it's starting to get re-pins and followers.
- Prepped the next Google Passage/Pinterest hybrid style article but they are taking longer than I would like just to prep never mind type up, I need to try to workout a way to cut down on prep time over the coming days. I might actually switch to just low comp keywords for a few days or Pinterest targeted keywords after this next hybrid article.
- Finished reading The Power Of Habit by Charles Duhig. Great book and I am actually going to try come up with a plan to hack some of my habits.

I'm guessing you downloaded Wordpress from wordpress.org? Just because there's wordpress.org and wordpress.com which are two different things.

I use the 1 click installer to put it on my hosting for me but that uses the .org version.

I use Alfred for my templates so I can quickly paste them into Wordpress, its more research and planning the article between Google and Pinterest thats taking so long.
A very distinct possibility. Everybody worldwide is glued to their TVs to see how it's all going to end. If it ever does, feels like it's been dragging on for years already.
Hopefully, once the world has done a collective sigh of relief, things will pick back up. If no other reason than Black Friday and Christmas are coming!
