How to Make Your WordPress Affiliate Site Google Friendly
I’m going to start this post by telling you just how pissed off and frustrated I am with my bar stools website. I’m also going to throw in some extra text links to the site in this same sentence because I’m so fu**ed off with things – the site also compares kitchen bar stools, breakfast [...]

I’m always whinging on about how my affiliate website has yet to start earning properly. I’ve moaned about how I set up the site in February and it’s only earned about £50 since then, £45 of which was accidental…I’ve moaned about how it got an initial rankings boost when it was a new domain and [...]

There’ll be some smug grins out there reading this, I know. I’m hoping though, that there’ll also be some sympathetic types who have been exactly where I am right now with my bar stools affiliate site. Once more I find myself squarely in the midst of the affiliate marketing rollercoaster and quite frankly, it’s bloody [...]

I’m not kidding. My bar stools affiliate site is driving me round the bend. Its been online now since the beginning of February and whilst I have had a couple of spikes in SERPs, my site has pretty much stabilised now at the arse end of the rankings. I always had a feeling it was [...]

As I write this post my affiliate website is not ranking for any of its target terms in google, not even its own site name. In yahoo, the site is showing that it has 23 backlinks from other sites. In google’s webmaster tools, it shows 11 incoming links. In terms of pages indexed, according to [...]

Bollocks! I knew it was too good to be true. 3 days ago my affiliate site re-appeared in google’s SERPs and since then, sold 3 items. That was giving me real hope for the future. In the last 3 days I’d been averaging around 25 visits per day where, for the previous 6 weeks, I’d [...]

Two days ago I wrote a post about how my site had returned to the SERPs for the first time in about 6 weeks. It’s a new site so I was expecting the ‘blackout’ period. Anyway, since gaining back its rankings a couple of days ago, I’m overjoyed to say that it’s made a sale!

For any of you that have been following this blog over the last few months, you’ll have heard about how my latest affiliate site experienced a nice boost in traffic in the first 4 weeks of its existence but then completely disappeared out of the SERPs. I explained how I believed this was due to [...]

11. April 2010
I’m at that time in my life where my friends are all starting to settle down and build families. Fortunately, it means there’s lots of opportunities to go away on stag dos. This weekend saw me hit the shores of spain for a suitably refreshing couple of days in the sun with not a computer [...]

So the Bank Holiday in the UK went by with only £65 in commission earned. This isn’t so bad really but I was kinda hoping to cross the £100 mark. Since then, everything has returned to normal on my bar stools site – flat sales, very few visits or clicks. Despite this, I seem to [...]
