I only skimmed it but your Quora article looks very nicely detailed, a.k.a. provides value for people looking for detailed information.

I thought about this after ...
There is a python program called html2text
aaronsw/html2text
Ubuntu Manpage: html2text - an advanced HTML-to-text converter
how to install:
https://pkgs.org/download/html2text
this would allow you to edit out the menus and other body content not related to the article text itself --in ether nano, vi or in a gui (like gedit or other test editor) --to extract what is important to you (in your case)
*this would be the correct way and a bit easier ...

  • Article 3 - 1521 Words.
  • Article 4 - 4336 Words.
  • Had it pointed out that last night was 4th July so thats probably why conversions was so low and its picked back up today anyway.
  • Force indexed all new pages on the blog I launched at the start of the month as a bunch were in the "Discovered - Currently Not Indexed" category on GSC and most of them seem to be indexed a few hours later.
  • Ordered 5 x Logos off Fiverr as content for a YouTube video but also to screen gig providers for logos for my new blog and future blogs as I usually just use a logo made from a Fiverr gig on my money site blogs.

Great thread. Followed this from the start. Thanks for all the updates. I was wondering:

Do you write different pages on 1 domain for different keywords that are related to each other? For example you find two suitable keywords like : "how to change parker pen ink" and "best parker pen ink"?

Also I see you writing about different domains. Do you start a new domain for every niche?
Thanks!

  • Stumbled onto a new sub-niche for my new domain when researching one of the articles for today so did a little Keyword research for it. Products tend to be priced $20-$40 but there seems to be a bunch of keywords in there so I might actually make them as hybrid pages on the domain and supplement the income for this sub-niche with display ads too. If this works then it might be the way that I move forward with my new domains where I just make hybrid sites for low price point items on Amazon and supplement the income with display ads.
  • Some of the keywords for the new domain are on the first page of Google already after around a week, it is just low page one and they are the zero search volume keyword batches, just waiting for them to climb top the top three and see if they get traffic.
Published my new video on YouTube about ordering content on iWriter and how the more expensive content on there is a waste of money.

I would do two different articles for both of those keywords, searcher intent is different and I doubt Google will offer much cross over. Yea I start new domains when I move into a new niche :).

  • The article writer that I was going to use for the content my domain from May this month has emailed me saying that he has overtime with his regular job so cant do the articles. In all fairness, I am happy about this as it gives me more free cash for next month for other stuff.
  • I spent more time doing keyword research for the domain I started this month as well as keyword research for YouTube.
I also uploaded a video going into how I work out the word count that I want for my articles too.

  • Found another sub-niche for this new domain so spent some more time doing keyword research for that too. Although I initially wanted to keep this domain around 100 pages, I think its going to be more than that now as its more of a test/proof of concept domain for moving forward with my money site network with three types of test on it right now.

  • Started some SEO tests for YouTube as I want to play around with YouTube SEO in my downtime.
  • 1300 monthly search, $200 item that I lost in the 4th May update jumped from 4th to 1st. Another page jumped from 5th to 2nd for a 320 search $400 item but T3 are 1st so I wont beat them but its good to see some recovery.

  • Finished my first batch of tests for YouTube SEO for my existing videos. I will leave it for a few weeks and then see if I see any benefit.
  • First organic hit from Google for the new domain that I started at the start of the month, with one hit, it still has more organic traffic this month than the domain from May, even Bing has sent more traffic to my domain from May. Makes me think there may be some other issue with it so not planning on going back to it next month like I was planning.
  • Thinking of getting an AHRefs sub next month as i’m sure they have a tool that makes it quick and easy to find terms that have YouTube videos on the first page to try and save time avoiding anything that was potentially hit by the May 4th update. They also have a few tools that I want to try for keyword research for the YouTube channel too.
  • The domain that I started in January seems to be going from strength to strength with the content that is actually indexed. It had its first 100 organic hit day last night and I am hoping for more of the same. The domain had an initial spend of $1400 on it and it has made me just over $600 but with this growth rate I think it might be profitable within two months even though a bunch of its pages are not indexed with Google.

  • I had a video call today with one of my friends whos portfolio is mostly display ad sites as he was hit by the May 4th update too. He went over my domain from May and said its pretty much the same issue that his newer domains are having too but he did say that the search volumes that my domain from May is targeting may be pushing it closer to the 8 month sandbox mark as he said he usually experiences a longer sandbox period with higher search volume keywords even if they are low competition for a new domain.
  • I put some content orders in with new writers on Upwork today, partly to see if I can find any new writers to actually work with, partly for YouTube content for two future videos.

Been binge watching the AHRefs content on YouTube ranking today actually, probably the best content on the topic I have found so far :).

  • My laptop has been giving me hardrive error messages all day so I think that it might fail soon, it is an old 2014 Macbook Pro and its been battered over the years and had water spilled on it too. Backed everything up to Dropbox that I might need from it and spent some time researching a new laptop, I really want to try the new iPad 2020 Pro but I think I would miss the Alfred app too much.
  • The domain that I started this month is on track to be finished soon so I need to try workout what I want to do from next month, I am in two minds about trying to start a zero backlinking domain or to actually put more time and effort into the domain from May but I think the domain from May might just be a waste of time and money now after the 4th May update.
I also uploaded my video on how you are able to come up with blog post ideas for free that may you money that might be helpful to some people.

  • Spent some time doing keyword competition analysis for youtube videos, Youtube seems like its going to be a total pain for search traffic when compared to google for my actual blog network. Might look into more traffic leaking or parasite SEO from Google with YouTube embeds or something in the future as its probably going to be the best way forward for this niche.
  • Due to getting through the content that I had planned for the test domain I started at the start of the month so fast I have done some niche research for a potential new zero backlink domain for my next one as I dont really want to do much with the May domain.
  • Ordered some manual forum posts from Fiverr to test the Gig, he is half the price of the current manual forum post supply I use so if it works out I will use him for my live projects. I can also use the links he provides for YouTube content too as a way to actually show what I mean by manual forum links on live examples.
  • I got an email from Amazon Australlia saying they are going to withhold 47% of the income from that storefront due to not having an ABN number. As I am not earning much from that storefront right now I will just add it to the bottom of my to do list but if its anything like the USA system it should be a pretty easy fix.

  • YouTube Channel got Monetization turned on for adsense.
  • Surfer SEO has been a total pain today, been down and crashing a whole bunch making it a pain to get my articles done.
  • Did some keyword research for the potential niche for next month and it might be a solid option for a zero backlinking domain but I will look a bit more before making a decision.

  • Article 1 - 1509 Words.

  • Article 3 - 1588 Words.
  • Server problem with Surfer SEO still happening with it white screening on me and locking me out of my article, its really annoying when trying to churn content out, seems to be getting more frequent too.
  • Did a little bit more research for the potential new domain from next month, at this rate this test domain will be done in a week or so then I will have a few free days at the end of the month to smash through the keyword research and decide on what I want to do.
 
You've reached the point of consistent income. With you working so hard, I'm sure you'll be scaling in the not-to-distant future.
