The Site – Herbal-Supplement-Resource.com

Flippa Listing - https://flippa.com/10210541-herbal-supplement-resource-com

Date Sold - 3^rd July 2019

Price Sold For - $31,000

Age of Site When Sold – 13 Years

Details – Here's a great example of a site making just $650 a month in profit, that has sold for an awesome $31,000. Whilst it uses Adsense for monetization, it could easily be improved by using other affiliate programs.

Keywords Targeted – It targets keywords related to herbs, plants, gardening and herbal supplements (also marijuana growing).

Backlinks – According to MajesticSEO there are less than 100 backlinks in total.

What My Plan Would Be To Clone The Results – I would set up a brand new site using a domain name that had the word 'herb, herbs or herbal' in it. I would then create 3,000 word content posts that target relevant keywords and place Amazon native ads and Adsense on each page. I would most likely need to have 70+ posts on the site to become more of an authority but these can be added on an ongoing basis.

I would use social, Web 2.0 and PBN links to rank the site over the course of 12+ months. I would heavily focus on getting topically related and thematically related backlinks.

The aim would be to get to $1,000+ per month in profit and then sell for $20,000 - $30,000.

The Sniper Lab is all about creating small 3-5 page websites that target buyer keywords with an Exact Match Domain (EMD).

You simply browse the Amazon marketplace to find products, then put those into the Google keyword planner and see what searches come up. Find one that gets 250+ searches a month that has a .com available domain and you're good to go!

You can use a free keyword tool like this one to get more accurate search volumes than the Google keyword planner now gives you.

These are really simple sites to make and each can make you 4 figures in profit when you sell them. They make great additions to add to your Amazon empire.

Stealing Backlinks

I've mentioned this before but stealing backlinks from the competition is one of the most overlooked methods of getting some great links for free. Whilst I always build PBN links, it's very natural and powerful to mix in other links too.

So how do you do it?

Simply do a search for your main keyword in Google and note down the top 10-20 sites. Then put each site into a tool like AHREFS or Majestic and see where they are getting links from. Then visit those sites and see if you can get a link from there to your own site.

This sounds really simple but not many people do it. You just go through all your competition and get links from the same places.

So we go and visit those sites and see if we can place our own link on there. Whether it be a blog comment, paid listing or whatever the case may be. If a link aggregator is showing and recognising the link, then it's going to be powerful in the eyes of Google too.

If you just go and try and get 2-5 links a day, or even a week, following this method then you'll jump up the rankings faster than ever. And of course, for the most part these links are totally free to get too.

Don't underestimate this method, it may take you a tiny bit of time but it will pay off when your sites start ranking and making you money.

Questions that have been sent in this month:

Q – Can I get traffic from social sites like Instagram instead of SEO?

A – Traffic is traffic. If it's targeted, then it's well worth getting. So no matter if you're paying for it or getting it from Google, Instagram, Facebook, as long as they are interested in your niche then it is traffic worth getting.

Q – Can I not promote digital products instead of using Amazon?

A – Sure. Once you have ranked your website, you can monetize it however you wish. Having other income streams is always recommended.

Q – I've seen Fiverr gigs for $10 that say they will rank my website, shall I use them?

A – Nope. Those types of links from unrelated sites will only hurt your SEO efforts. Just stick to the training and get links from related sites. The shortcut is very rarely the best option!
