3:47
I started doing as Ceo

3:51
It was easy. And
3:55
just tried a bunch of affiliate
3:57
sites sell it that you know
3:59
back. The exact match. Days.
4:02
Like I think one of my sights
4:04
was helmets for sale.net. We. Can
4:06
kind of like bench your had a couple
4:08
that exact match domains as well. Yeah,
4:11
that does. Definitely the the
4:13
thing at the time ah
4:15
Sienna to brothers kind of
4:17
sites but that yeah I
4:19
I. Moved. On from
4:21
there and tried to do my own
4:23
agency which failed. And
4:26
then I started working for a Smash Digital. It
4:28
was a cotton at the time, but on. That's.
4:30
What they're called now cabs. Jamison
4:32
is pretty well known in the
4:34
community. Ah, helped lead as Ceo
4:36
there and actually quit there in
4:38
about twenty eighteen and I went
4:40
to work for Siege Media for
4:42
like two weeks. Not
4:45
not a good set a good
4:47
are you know corporate culture gonna
4:49
guy? I guess. But.
4:52
I. Was can it's you know
4:54
for the whole time messing around with
4:56
affiliate sites and. that that
4:58
January a plane eighteen one of my
5:01
sights in the Cbd nice started to
5:03
take off and then in March it
5:05
really took off as printing money were
5:07
doing like. Fifteen Hundred
5:09
And Twenty Five hundred a day
5:12
in Cbd affiliate? Wow, I'm. It
5:14
was a while couple of months who I
5:16
outrank. It's doesn't back when you could wreck
5:18
first for ah, you know that the main
5:20
key word as a featured snippet. And
5:23
also the first organic result so double
5:25
dipping to good good old days. Someone.
5:28
Approached me and I saw that site and I'm
5:31
than I just kind of kept rolling I in
5:33
the cannabis nice I was doing. Like.
5:36
How to grow cannabis Type. Keyword:
5:38
silly stuff doing really well and
5:40
silver. Twenty Twenty December Update: When
5:43
I get crushed, I lost like
5:45
ninety nine percent of my traffic.
5:48
And. I
5:51
kind of as.a couple sites going on but that
5:53
was the main ones and I kind of moved
5:55
away from a silly at sites. At.
5:58
That point and and kind of wound. Down
6:00
My my big area of
6:02
expertise is. A. H Domains.
6:05
I. All of these sites
6:07
day except for one will.on H
6:10
domains and to use that to
6:12
really. Skill. Up in.
6:14
You. Are still? It's like that Rank is
6:17
magnificent. Let me I guess
6:19
ask you From the outset we got okay
6:21
you're involved in something things now that we're
6:23
going to. I think this is gonna be
6:25
such a fun episode for but Im listening
6:27
because there can be something for everyone. Arm
6:29
and you talked a lot about each domain
6:31
from the your last interview and what it
6:33
would like work that would you seen as
6:36
age domains role nowadays. For.
6:38
Whether we're talking about starting a new
6:40
site or something else, something different with
6:42
the role of age domains with website
6:45
building nowadays. Yeah.
6:48
I think they worked really great. still
6:50
ends. You can see that reflected in
6:52
the price. Damn, it's not easy to
6:54
to pick up a message to mean
6:56
for teeth in a back in the.
6:59
Twenty nineteen, Twenty twenty period.
7:01
You could get a like
7:03
a solid the or fifty
7:05
plus with a bunch of
7:07
nice relevant. Rate. Referring
7:09
domains for like. Low.
7:12
Thousands maybe? And now that's like the
7:14
twenty. Now the dollar name. Okay, So
7:18
it it's I mean. It's
7:20
hard to pick them up because they work so well.
7:23
that's why the that's what. They're so competitive. Ends
7:26
yeah it's It's a great way to start.
7:29
You have some of from capital and I
7:31
think there are some things that are different.
7:33
I don't have the wanna. Really?
7:36
Go into that about how I would. Deal.
7:39
With age domains these days it's and that we
7:41
could get to. but did they definitely still work?
7:44
Yeah, me love comeback. I've got a guy note
7:46
on it and maybe let's come back to it's
7:48
Ahmed. Maybe tell us where you're at right now?
7:51
You can s p that a bit about how
7:53
you've moved away from a from a couple things
7:55
were what's going on right now at recording early.
7:57
Two thousand Twenty Four. Yeah.
8:01
My main thing is writing an essay
8:03
of newsletter. Called.
8:05
Ring Theory I. You
8:09
know, do some sponsorships here. They're not
8:11
a big part of my income. I
8:13
really love writing it. people seem to
8:15
love it and I guess what I'm
8:17
really trying to do is. Find.
8:20
Services or have products that
8:22
you know my readers. Resonate.
8:25
With and and can purchase more so
8:27
than building out a lot us in
8:30
a like having a huge portfolio sites
8:32
or something. So
8:34
you know we we do
8:37
some agency related stuff as
8:39
specifically around strategy consultations and.
8:43
Yeah. That's that's my main income source at the
8:45
moment. Like. Like riding the domain trying
8:48
to get our newsletter, trying to get. Some.
8:51
Agency points. So
8:54
let's talk about newsletters. They're certainly talked about
8:56
a lot. I think a lot of people
8:58
that have heard that well be in a
9:00
space where a newsletter feels like a good
9:03
both on right like the when you first
9:05
hereby like I have a website said I
9:07
both a newsletter honor. I have a business
9:09
like a local business or I've an agency
9:11
should. I bought a newsletter under that you're
9:14
doing it as the primary driver. Of
9:16
what you're focusing on that like talk. what
9:18
a difference is in using as a bolt
9:20
on and why you're talking out why you're
9:22
doing it as a primary driver of where
9:25
you spend your time energy. Yeah
9:27
I think it comes down to like. What?
9:30
What Are you Good Alec? What's your
9:32
core competency? And for me, It's
9:35
writing, which is the you know. Kind
9:37
of unfortunate since the whole internet seems
9:39
to be swinging toward video. I'm not
9:41
sure I'd on video. Not great on
9:43
the spot. But. I'm
9:45
a really good writer and so
9:48
it just makes sense to me
9:50
to. Your
9:52
of I'd invest a lot in that
9:54
and you know that you can say
9:56
okay the you have your own newsletter
9:58
like. You. Know you. That lit, it's been
10:01
said a hundred thousand times. Like, you own
10:03
your newsletter, You don't own your Twitter audience.
10:05
Your Facebook got it. So. That.
10:07
Like all that adds up in my opinion,
10:09
to be like newsletter is a valuable place
10:11
for me to. Say.
10:14
What I think of what I care
10:16
about I'm and have an audience and
10:18
cages and then you know if you
10:20
you have a nice cider, a you
10:22
have a brand or whatever you. You.
10:25
May be aren't putting all of your
10:27
energy into a newsletter because you're trying
10:29
to rent for the keywords the you're
10:31
trying to. You know? Make. Euro
10:34
Tip Talks. On.
10:36
Point or whatever. so as the I
10:38
think he just comes down to what.
10:41
What's. The thing that you're gonna focus on
10:43
where you good. I
10:45
still think I've not heard that brought up. I think
10:48
you bring up a really good point that. Riding
10:51
his core to website building.
10:54
Creating. Content. The people resonate with that connects
10:56
with people and you're right. A lot of what's
10:58
happened with the Serbs with Google the last
11:00
couple years has attended that Ted Drive a
11:02
lot of writers away thinking like oh man, what
11:04
do I do with my time and energy
11:06
And a lot of the encouragement is you
11:08
need to be on video and lot of
11:10
you are. So I want to be a video
11:13
I want to be writing. I want to
11:15
be on the other side of the screen
11:17
So I think that's. A Really
11:19
compelling. It's a really compelling point, so
11:21
I'm I hope people can have heard
11:23
that now if. I guess why
11:26
this shift to riding a newsletter and
11:28
some of your other projects from building
11:30
affiliate web sites. And I think from
11:32
what you said that started Ali back
11:34
in like twenty twenty and beyond. this
11:36
isn't a recent adjustment you've made, but
11:38
again, like a listening might be having
11:41
the same questions, the same thoughts about
11:43
sixteen where they're focusing, why did you
11:45
shift your focus and how that develop
11:47
over time. Yeah.
11:49
So I I started writing. About
11:51
Aids domains and twenty nineteen and as
11:53
far as I know, not a lot
11:55
of other people are reading about that
11:57
like that came later like I would.
12:00
It wasn't like super mainstream at
12:02
that point. And
12:05
I just sort of started doing it for
12:07
fun cause I'm just kind of under about
12:09
the mean like I just like that's how
12:11
I got into age amazed I just like
12:13
domains and I can't stop buying them and
12:15
and so I started building on them. It
12:17
was like oh. There's. A whole
12:19
thing. I'm so yeah. I started
12:21
in two thousand and eighteen just
12:23
reading about Aids domains. There wasn't
12:26
a lot out there. I partnered
12:28
for a minute West I enter
12:30
Rosemary. Who is the
12:32
owner of Media Options his days
12:35
and great Domain Broker their The
12:37
Destiny Brokers. As
12:40
so that really helped me. kind of.
12:43
And until. I. Guess legitimize the
12:45
news letter writing for a bet. It was
12:47
like a paid product for a while but
12:49
just wasn't the right thing to be focusing
12:51
I guess for him so we can have.
12:54
Parted ways of you know was. Was.
12:56
Friendly, nothing with says no drama there.
13:00
And then I just kept. Writing. I
13:02
I. I had swung between charging
13:04
for the newsletter and not a
13:06
bunch and I settled on not
13:08
charging for it because I'd rather
13:10
have more readers then gonna limit
13:12
that you can have. I mean
13:14
what when I write newsletters isn't.
13:17
Five six hours of writing work like I
13:19
don't want that to be behind a paywall
13:21
that only a small number of people read
13:24
Mineral have you know, a huge Ezio influence
13:26
or audience to really make that of a
13:28
no brainer. How have you
13:30
grown the newsletter? How is that? Like Ebdon
13:32
flowed, it sounds like you've gone back and
13:34
forth. a lot of models that perhaps a
13:36
lot of people would be. think about any.
13:39
I don't have like a little small newsletter
13:41
as well that I just started last year
13:43
and these Rothys I still like a good
13:45
to ask you. They like all the questions
13:47
I've had in my head for the last
13:49
nine months or so as I've been building
13:51
that you know charge or don't charge how
13:53
you get new readers arm you know and
13:55
how do you find the the ability to
13:57
balance getting new readers up against writing com.
14:00
That every week or every month for how do
14:02
you settle on a Cadence South thing with these
14:04
are all the question I bother me. Start with
14:06
how have you grown though has how are you
14:08
focused on trying to go list what worked? what
14:10
has he may be adding he you can share.
14:13
Yeah, I'm. Like being.
14:16
That there's a lot to be said
14:18
for being consistent. When I'm consistent, everything
14:20
goes up. and when I take a
14:22
couple months off as I did in
14:24
the past, side tracked this anymore. Him:
14:27
He. Would go down of be harder
14:29
to can get them momentum back and
14:31
ask for me I think. Prior.
14:34
To the Twitter Changing Hands
14:37
I I drew a fair
14:39
amount of subscribers on Twitter
14:41
on I don't think I'm.
14:44
I'm I'm not the target. Writer
14:48
on Twitter these days to have it really.
14:51
Tempted to to grow and to get out
14:53
there in I think a lot of like
14:55
I don't know. In engagement
14:57
baiting or something is is the
14:59
way a lot of people really
15:01
you know talk about their ezio
15:03
highs and get a lot of
15:05
attention. And dad. That's. The
15:08
an omelet? Quiet or so. I
15:10
used to grow it a fair amount on twitter
15:12
have none of looking more with the main. Growth.
15:15
Channel is these days, but in the
15:18
past that's worked on. Word of Mouth
15:20
has been pretty solid cause I think
15:22
you've read a few of my menu
15:24
for this. Kind of weird and yep,
15:26
kinds of your forties. Yeah, quirky and
15:29
yeah, yeah, so so the people tend
15:31
to kind of share. that. And
15:34
as I guess that and that and
15:36
podcast like this. People.
15:38
Discovering because I'm not in. I cannot that
15:40
myself after all. For. That most
15:42
of the house groom. You. Mentioned
15:44
as we're preparing for the interview,
15:47
the Racks bought a newsletter. Ah,
15:49
I'm and I mean there's a
15:51
market for everything, right? Ah, but
15:53
there's a market for newsletters. especially
15:55
with yeah, now some of the
15:57
big big big newsletters saleen of
15:59
late. Over the past couple years
16:01
and stuff on our up he tells more
16:03
about that story. Yeah.
16:07
I just. I
16:09
think I was reading. These
16:11
could use do you use ie.com it
16:13
a newsletter in there like hey there
16:16
that as he and his letter for
16:18
sale this was. Last May
16:20
I think. So
16:22
at at the time I hadn't been taking
16:24
it super seriously, writing reading a newsletter to
16:26
kind of searching for what to do next.
16:28
you know, like an on again off again
16:30
thing and I was like Id to get
16:33
back into this. I'm in a make a
16:35
commitment and in April of last year I.
16:38
Said my do two months of daily
16:40
newsletters on the sub Second A on.
16:42
so I did that. It went pretty
16:44
well as like I'm I'm ready to
16:46
really. Get. involved in so
16:48
I saw that listing. I I
16:51
took the down choir.com and it
16:53
was the weekly as ceo.com. Tell
16:57
casket at the as a lot of
16:59
people might have might have heard of.
17:01
it is assist. The
17:04
started during coded and it was like each
17:06
week it's like years. The. The.
17:08
Best article of the week and a couple
17:11
other interesting things and you know that was
17:13
it. And as like as. A
17:16
You know if a fellow kassa
17:18
my train acquire this and you
17:20
know integrated into my newsletter and
17:22
and you know the the purse
17:24
subscriber. Rate. Was criticizing
17:26
a part for like. Three.
17:29
Dollars per subscriber. Ah, which seems
17:31
Elissa that time to be like
17:33
the industry standard for like trying
17:35
to. Pick. Up News has got
17:37
Rizvi ads or whatever. So
17:40
yeah, I purchase that and I
17:42
integrated it with my newsletter. Like
17:45
that. June and I definitely learned a
17:47
lot. kind of or what not to
17:49
do. But overall it and you know
17:52
I'm happy with the purchase. A think
17:54
that's a decent way to grow Newsletter:
17:57
It's. Funny because I mean a lot of people will
17:59
start a web. Right right and then use
18:01
and eight domain and maybe merge that to
18:03
their website or three. Oh, and redirect similar
18:05
to the website as I'm sure there's some
18:07
differences, but it sounds a little bit similar
18:09
when you buy and acquire a newsletter and
18:11
and can emerge at him with your newsletter.
18:13
Know that. Yeah that
18:16
there's a lot things to consider like it. I
18:18
mean it just feels really fraught like ah, these
18:20
people like they didn't sign up to hear from
18:22
me and my dumb you know antics like. How
18:25
am I gonna convince them to
18:27
stick around? And yeah there,
18:29
there's a definite learning curve there.
18:33
A lot of people will grow. Newsletter with
18:35
like a free be a downloadable like something
18:37
that I'll give you this in exchange for
18:39
your email address and hopefully than I can
18:41
kind of win you over with like a.
18:44
An auto respond or sequence of my best content mean
18:46
this is not the only way to do about. This
18:48
is another way to get new people to be played
18:50
around with that at all. he tried that. Any thoughts
18:52
on that. Know. I
18:54
may I probably should like the
18:56
one of the. Kind
18:59
of like recurring storylines of my.
19:02
Journey. Is I don't do.
19:06
The best practices all the time. Probably.
19:08
For the worse. But like you it it makes
19:10
what I end up. Working
19:13
on kind of unique. But
19:15
no, I've never done. I probably should. I
19:19
say like that it makes sense to do that
19:22
in and like run ads against said Geico. Here's
19:24
the thing you want. I made it. can can
19:26
write met him and stick around but. Ever
19:29
done that yet? While
19:31
I'm instead of the flip to it would
19:33
be little I will say that you don't get
19:35
necessarily as high as I is as high
19:37
very like an engaged last are my bad so
19:39
items which he said. so everything's we're trying
19:41
but not everything is, we're sticking to you. Are
19:46
you have? You stayed focused on each domains. With.
19:48
The newsletter could that was the original
19:50
reason and original kind of i'm cadence
19:52
with it with the content right? Is
19:54
that something you broaden? Doubt I'm gonna
19:57
go more broad as he our even
19:59
outside of us. Are you stuck with in
20:01
that lame? Yeah
20:03
I. I. Started like
20:05
here's the you know. Ten
20:08
domains I would buy this week at auction. That's
20:10
gonna happen is that are started. Here's what I
20:12
would do with that. Here's what's valuable his the
20:15
winter has of of us and then that became
20:17
like. It's. Not everyday that a
20:19
lot of people were doing that like
20:21
here's the best domains it in. Odis
20:23
came on the scene and everybody is
20:25
promoting Otis, you know? So I moved
20:27
away from that. My.
20:30
Writing style is sort of. Kind
20:33
of sarcastic. kind of like everyone's
20:36
and on the joke to them.
20:38
Yeah, no. I
20:40
don't know south the that is to
20:42
say. I moved away from. Really?
20:45
Like here's how to do as the oh
20:48
here's how to do this. think of a
20:50
bar and now it's like taking a couple
20:52
of stories that are in the news and
20:54
like writing. My. Reaction to them.
20:57
This is why it's important. This is a white stupid.
20:59
You know this is what you can learn from it.
21:01
This is what you should ignore. Kind
21:03
of my take on it. So it's almost like
21:05
ab. Know like
21:08
like tantalizing or renting against
21:10
the. Did. Se or
21:12
headlines. Are
21:15
just want to pull any
21:17
insights you have from. Like.
21:20
Your newsletter journey which is really gone three
21:22
four years. If you look at it now
21:24
what are you know? What are just some
21:26
some from the top things you've learned from
21:28
the different parts of the news letter of
21:30
the last three or four years and again
21:32
I'm thinking about somebody who is really thinking
21:34
about making a dollars and of a newsletter
21:36
in this calendar year. You know someone who's
21:38
trying to learn from you about some of
21:41
the ups and downs you've had. Just may
21:43
be any insights you can give those people
21:45
that that are thinking about a newsletter and
21:47
trying to have turned that may be skipped
21:49
summer mistakes that are. Out there or or
21:51
or try to get to the I'm the things
21:53
that really help influence it's growth. I'm
21:56
definitely consistency is important. That's
21:58
the hardest thing. Is
22:00
to to sit down each week and do the
22:02
work. But I really
22:04
think it it stacks up and becomes
22:07
exponential over time. The
22:09
other thing I would say is like. Learn.
22:12
All the best practices so that
22:14
you know what to break or
22:16
how you're breaking it and how
22:18
you being unique by doing that
22:21
you know. A
22:23
lot of people you know, like you're saying i
22:25
go have a have an offer and and you
22:27
know convince people have a welcome less than all
22:29
this stuff. It's
22:31
like I know I'm not doing that and I'm
22:33
doing this other thing and. Maybe.
22:36
It doesn't help me grow as much, but
22:38
like as soon as you get the welcome
22:40
email for me, it's it's weird and you're
22:42
like oh, that's interesting I get it just
22:44
stands out. Ah, I
22:46
would say. I
22:49
mean this is my opinion and I guess
22:51
I'm pretty biased, but like. I
22:53
see a lot of people may looking
22:55
down the barrel of a I Newsletters
22:58
newsletters written by a Ice There's so
23:00
many newsletter that they're like why why
23:02
would anyone read your A I summaries
23:04
of the news you name mean like
23:06
at I'd just like if you think
23:09
about from from the point of view
23:11
if someone that has you know they
23:13
get ten do letters a weaker. Fifteen
23:16
a day, or whatever number like. Like.
23:18
Why why would they read yours? I think
23:20
you have to be able to answer that.
23:22
Maybe not at first like you know, I
23:24
didn't come at the gate like out. this
23:27
is the best thing. It's super unique and
23:29
was gonna love it, but like you know,
23:31
you read it a bunch and you're like,
23:33
okay, like this sort of thing resonates with
23:35
people and this gives me a lot of
23:37
responses. So what? Kind of doubled down on
23:39
that. And. And so damning. Like anything
23:41
you do it a bunch of and you can.
23:44
Find your way and. You
23:46
know the your early work you look back and a
23:48
couple years you're like earth. Like. As
23:50
as I am flat I'm not writing
23:52
bad him were so you know you
23:54
You can see your self improving. On
23:58
Saturday the way I read we were
24:00
recently moved our my little email less
24:02
from Miller Light over to Convert Kitten
24:04
so he had like looks are a
24:07
lot of your the emails. To
24:09
figure out the format, Email that boy.
24:11
It's only been nine months and I've
24:14
already feel like my first emails were
24:16
garbage. Anyway, I digress. arm let some.
24:18
If we can't like I want to
24:20
sure to get a little bit your
24:22
thoughts on each domains and say i'd
24:24
I'd do I transitioned just a bit
24:26
to hear about that. I mean I
24:28
I if if you seamless plug. Whereas
24:30
you haven't listened to sounds first interview
24:32
it really is like an eight is
24:34
the on H domains and I feel
24:36
like a lot of it still applies
24:38
I'm I I listened to open a
24:40
red at the the recap email or
24:42
up some page on and it's proceeds
24:44
podcast about it of in preparation and
24:46
I feel like it's still a really
24:48
good eight as the on how to
24:50
use age domains to start and build
24:52
and potentially flip web sites, how to
24:54
merge them to gather all that sort
24:56
stuff. I mean what's changed about each
24:58
domains of the last. Couple of years if
25:01
anything, and maybe let's use as a springboard
25:03
into talking about each domains at it this
25:05
year and beyond. This
25:08
This is. Mostly an anecdotal
25:11
like just from observing things,
25:13
but. The. Way that like
25:15
the biggest seems. That. I'm
25:17
doing myself is I think
25:19
the days of doing a
25:21
bunch of redirect chains are
25:23
coming to an end or
25:25
had ended. I've messed around
25:27
with it a bit and
25:29
the haven't seen any real
25:31
success doing that. I've seen
25:33
other sites talk about how
25:35
they. Aren't having
25:38
success with the As he used to be
25:40
Like it A Habit domain. You build it
25:42
out for three months and you redirected to
25:44
your main site or that becomes your main
25:46
site and then you buy another H domain
25:48
to redirect that he can stack up these
25:50
referring domains. but. I. Think
25:53
there's a certain kind of. Signal.
25:56
That that's can. Produce.
25:59
An A. Why isn't. Something.
26:01
That was picked up on at first, but
26:04
I think these days it can be like
26:06
you know if a site like Forbes or
26:08
something and. Vr. One million
26:10
can have a bunch of redirect
26:12
coming in. Whatever. But
26:14
like if you're d r ten site with
26:16
like. Forty. Pieces of content
26:18
has three like domains being redirected
26:21
like. That that
26:23
doesn't make sense in like
26:25
a real world use case.
26:28
So. For for me like.
26:31
My advice would be by and
26:33
age domain or an expiring domain
26:35
that's already a good brand and
26:38
that's gonna be expensive because good
26:40
domains. Go. For thousands of
26:42
dollars even with no Se. Oh. Yeah.
26:44
No authority to speak of. so finding one
26:46
you can really built a brand on. That.
26:49
Has also like a bunch of
26:52
nice relevance authority. This
26:54
expenses that really itself. It's a
26:56
lot harder to to have some
26:58
success there. Exists. Or
27:00
so if I were paraphrasing age domains
27:02
for new projects. still seeing a lot
27:05
of success. And we
27:07
can talk more about it. But age
27:09
domains to redirect to a current project
27:11
or current site outside of super high,
27:13
the are sites that are already ticking
27:16
on their own. You're. Not seen
27:18
at were quite as well Now. It's.
27:21
Would you do? You mean he said you're
27:24
moving away from affiliate. Sides. With
27:26
a human. Just as expense righteous because the
27:28
East cost two thousand dollars to buy in
27:30
his campaign. That was awesome And add twenty
27:32
thirty forty thousand and I seen you share
27:35
some of that like crazy som. Er
27:37
och, since on go daddy like you're saying
27:39
some that are over six figures. Ah,
27:41
I'm and at I mean I agree to like
27:44
the even three or four years ago that would
27:46
just be insane. But
27:48
on the tents are still working. If you
27:50
do have the budget to say say you're
27:52
going to invest in a new website, Your
27:54
build new website and you want to earmark
27:56
twenty or thirty thousand dollars or even a
27:58
little less. You can. In a good deal like. Are
28:01
all the basic tenet still working the same way? I'm
28:03
in terms? Are you build it. Yeah,
28:06
I would say so. I think the main thing that's
28:08
changed and in one thing, this kind of. Turned.
28:10
Me off as affiliate is. I mean just
28:13
just the way the Serbs have gone. You
28:15
know, if you look at who's ranking for
28:17
affiliate at keywords, it's not. Affiliate
28:19
sites. In increasingly that's true.
28:22
Like there are some exceptions here
28:24
there, but like these huge media
28:26
sites that they're really started in.
28:28
Late. Twenty Twenty. That. Nice
28:30
off. You. Know that
28:32
the are all these and magazines
28:35
in these companies sites Ranking for
28:37
like Best Testosterone, Best C B
28:39
D Like all these really historically
28:41
valuable affiliate keywords and that's just
28:43
gotten i think worse and worse
28:45
from an essay of point of
28:47
view or in Philly markers point
28:50
of view. And and now. Like.
28:53
Me Personally, I wouldn't start.
28:57
A new project that is planning
28:59
on being an affiliate site or
29:01
and an ad revenue focus site
29:04
because every update it seems like
29:06
those sites loose and sites that
29:08
do something. Sell something
29:10
provide some service. Our
29:12
brand. Or the sites that are
29:15
winning and I think you can still take
29:17
an H domain and like really kickstarter project
29:19
by. Like. Having something
29:21
to offered building and on an age
29:23
to me. And of course there's a
29:25
thousand exceptions, but that's the general way
29:27
the tide is moving. I
29:30
wonder what's not to say that person
29:32
is sponsored by Search Intelligence. Here's a
29:34
short clip of Ferry from Certain Talents
29:37

it shows you how you can

from official sources. If.
31:07
You want similar link building
31:10
Pr campaigns for your website?
31:12
Had to search-intelligence.co.uk and get
31:14
in touch with them now.
31:20
I'm. Amp throw kind of random question at
31:22
you. he might have heard it already, but
31:24
it's always been in the back of my
31:26
my and I seen chatter about it I
31:28
bet. certainly. with Twenty Twenty Three behind us
31:31
and a lot of the landscape shifting types
31:33
of updates and certain movements that we saw
31:35
the you how to just reference like helpful
31:37
content updates, continuous core updates, product review are
31:39
now review updates that are now just beta,
31:41
the algorithm and other stuff changing like a
31:44
lot of people listening. You're going to have
31:46
sites that. Are. No contest
31:48
sites and affiliate sites are no longer where
31:50
they used to be rights and a lotta
31:52
talk has been about what I do with.
31:54
ah I'm what do you think of an
31:56
idea that I've seen tossed around a bunch
31:58
which is by any domain in five? The
32:00
Edo reboot it and take your content a
32:02
move it over to a fresh H domain
32:04
and try to rebuild. Did a little bit
32:06
more with the Continent place but with all
32:09
that more of an aim to be a
32:11
business and to be offering something and but
32:13
taking that continent use it somewhere different again
32:15
I'm I'm not recommending this and I'm just
32:17
asking us someone in the age domain space
32:19
like is it really did you that concept
32:21
you think or is that is that not
32:23
worth the effort. I
32:25
think it's worth it if your. Your.
32:28
Site that you had is just added
32:30
zero. Like there's nothing. There's nothing lasts
32:32
because at that point you have nothing
32:34
to lose. If my site
32:36
was working at with it was just outside the
32:39
top. The. Top Ten or something.
32:41
For the mean keywords, I don't
32:43
know that you would. Really
32:46
get a lot out of moving it
32:48
to an age domain comic restarting vs.
32:50
sixteen. Whatever the reason is that your
32:53
sights on ranking. And maybe
32:55
it's something you can't six like, you're just
32:57
competing in a space where the top ten
32:59
It's always gonna be like these medical authorities
33:01
or something and like. You.
33:03
Know that that sucks Like. I don't
33:05
know how to fix that, except for by
33:08
becoming a medical authority and investing hundreds of
33:10
thousands of dollars into content and. Links
33:12
and whatever. But.
33:15
I have heard people that have
33:17
had a site pennywise. They.
33:19
Move the content to a.
33:22
Lighter. And age the main that they
33:25
have or another project they have but
33:27
they don't redirect things one to one
33:29
which was traditionally the advice and all
33:31
of their rankings. Come. Back on
33:33
this new domain it's some Then and
33:35
Jackie Jackie Chiles talked about a lot.
33:37
Which. Is super and seen I've not done it personally.
33:39
I've heard. Secondhand: Yeah.
33:42
I guess that gets a death collect. The idea
33:44
talk about like is it the content that's causing
33:47
you not to rank and content quality in which
33:49
case often times we had to an h the
33:51
main probably wouldn't do much. is it to the
33:53
our gonna be prohibitive from you ever ranking in
33:55
which case it as a matter what to do
33:57
with your content in this matter if it's you
33:59
know. Experience of going to rank
34:01
because you don't have a D
34:03
or ninety in the medical space
34:05
or could it be a domain
34:07
level type of penalisation which ah,
34:09
does exist right? and then maybe
34:11
get enough that domain could reboot
34:13
that content. So interesting. He mustn't
34:16
Jackie Chan. You have a partnership
34:18
or community with him, don't you?
34:20
Yeah, it's sad the advise community
34:22
with okay really kicked it off
34:24
last July and work together. A
34:27
Can we talk about Community We had our
34:29
we've had a couple on the last year
34:31
that talk about who they think Communities the next
34:33
big thing I hit in and expecting by the
34:36
way or makes me sound like a like
34:38
a newscaster pets arm. but you know as
34:40
we talk about other areas to put our
34:42
time and effort. If you're if you're not
34:44
wanting to spend your traditional maybe time on
34:46
a side has a like an affiliate sites
34:48
are a member of that. Flynn from Smart

34:52
in building community and stuff. So I'm you
34:54
know what was the genesis of you and
34:56
Jackie starting the community gather. I've
34:59
kind of known him for several years.
35:03
Interacting. On Facebook Groups: where are you buying
35:05
so Insights: He's got a lot of stuff going
35:08
on. So he was. He
35:10
would pop up when I was looking to buy or
35:12
sell something. That we
35:14
never really. Made. In happens
35:16
and I. I. Don't remember exactly
35:18
how we started talking about this. I think
35:20
he saw that I was. Tweeting.
35:23
About starting my own community. Around
35:26
rent theory of a Mean on his
35:29
letter and seven and pull the trigger.
35:31
but it's something I was investing off
35:33
time into. Learning. About signed up
35:35
for take classes I treat or science.
35:37
He's got some courses on community and
35:39
he's got a private community that that
35:41
I mean as well. And
35:45
in I think he just the amazed like
35:47
hey i have this is no existing humidity
35:49
do you want to go in on it
35:52
together and and at the time So this
35:54
is maybe like. Maybe.
35:56
Like. May, mays of last
35:58
year. I
36:01
began, i really do my own thing and
36:03
then I just never said he never did
36:05
it, never pull the trigger. Ah so and
36:08
so I'd like I'd. But.
36:10
The you know? let's let's talk about this
36:12
more. Let's let's do it. So we we
36:14
chatted and it's just basically a fifty fifty
36:16
partnership. It's something that he created. An
36:19
that never really put a lot into.
36:22
So we think it was doing
36:25
like three hundred s a month
36:27
at that time My took over
36:29
and he basically said you. You.
36:31
Know handle all the administrative things
36:34
in the you know. Like make.
36:36
A trip like there's a billing era like you
36:38
talk to the person, figure it out and all
36:40
that kinda stuff and he said i'll just. He.
36:43
Promote it in my. Newsletter.
36:45
And you tube or whatever and so
36:47
that's kind of split and it's crone
36:49
really well since then. Done. Really love.
36:52
What I'm. Again,
36:55
Trying to get the mindset of to
36:57
be listening, who is a writer or
37:00
somebody put been a precise content and
37:02
is trying to understand the differences between
37:04
writing content for a website, creating content
37:06
for a newsletter, and. Running.
37:09
A A our membership. you know month
37:11
when the community I guess as a
37:13
better place what are the like? What
37:16
are the differences in how you have
37:18
to manage something like that? And I
37:20
guess I ask because in many ways
37:22
dies. Having a community mean
37:24
you have to create content for it
37:26
or is it very different from a
37:28
newsletter and a website where you're less
37:30
content creator, more curator of people's topics
37:32
in People's Thoughts. Yeah.
37:35
I A I really think it depends on.
37:37
You. Know what you've got going on
37:40
and I don't know if you're
37:42
familiar, traffic think tank they are
37:44
and humidity. and I've been a
37:46
member since he started. They went
37:48
really heavy into education, so they
37:50
the you know they have this
37:52
whole library of of educational content,
37:54
So it's really it's a compelling
37:56
reason to join. The
37:59
the main. Like Value Prop there is
38:01
like you know, hey, there's a community. It as
38:03
a lot going on but we have a whole
38:05
library of all this diverse. Content.
38:08
You can can learn from So
38:11
like that. that's one direction. Like
38:13
that's not the direction we've gone.
38:15
Ours is purely a slacker community
38:18
where we just. Interact
38:20
or day. It's
38:22
definitely you know, a different vibe
38:25
from running an affiliate site or.
38:27
Publishing a newsletter arm. But
38:32
as to what? like? It
38:35
it just depends on what you want
38:37
to buy to be. And so because
38:39
I'm working with Jackie he's very transparent.
38:41
He's very i'm He does a great
38:43
job as saying like this is what
38:45
I believe then this is what. People.
38:48
Believe in traditionally and they're wrong. And
38:50
there you know. The. Enemy
38:53
in quotes like my
38:55
philosophy is. It
38:57
is against there's you know and
39:00
so people that. That. Really
39:02
resonates with are interested in joining
39:04
and talking about that. Isn't
39:06
so and so that we have to think
39:08
about like it? You know if you have,
39:11
if you're sitting at the community like, what's
39:13
your philosophy? what's your theory? What are you.
39:15
Bringing. To these people com.
39:18
That's. You know, Kind
39:20
of at in conflict with what
39:23
other people think. That that's
39:25
one way to frame and I guess. Yeah.
39:27
Now I get it. Yeah, you have
39:29
to. A reason for people to be
39:31
there may be, and if you don't,
39:33
if you are doing a lot of
39:36
educational style content like he talked about
39:38
with the other community, perhaps having a
39:40
different take on things and people are
39:42
intrigued to come to that nearly daily
39:44
To get those press takes like that
39:46
makes a lot of sense. Yeah.
39:49
And it's like you know that
39:51
this stuff that we're sharing their
39:53
is very. I
39:56
I'd say it's like. What's. Actually
39:58
working now Mike. The whole like
40:00
as soon as Reddit sort of rank of
40:02
for everything everybody was like you know let's
40:04
talk about this. How do we had we
40:06
take advantage of that to rank staff had
40:09
as as become a part of our strategy.
40:11
What are we testing which has not you
40:13
know quite the vibe on my traffic been
40:15
tank which is now owned by some rest.
40:18
He. Notes that that's more. May. White
40:20
Hat Enterprise Focus And there's room
40:22
fat tissue for both, you know,
40:26
I'm. Partnerships.
40:29
Come up sometimes and that's a partnership you
40:31
have. Ah, like how do people think about
40:33
partnerships as they we move forward? Is that
40:36
a good opportunity for people? On me it
40:38
sounds like saying you were come on the
40:40
fence about but goes really well for you.
40:42
What things have you learned from a partnership
40:44
that can help people value eight. Perhaps.
40:47
Partner up with someone going forward with up
40:49
with a project or venture to take on.
40:51
yeah, I think was one thing that's really
40:53
important that hasn't worked out for me. Is
40:57
the scene on pointer recognizes partner with
40:59
somebody who. Is. Very.
41:02
Similar. To you in work
41:04
ethic, I think I'm the kind
41:06
of person that. Just
41:08
I want to do things like let's let's do
41:11
it Let's you know, let's not plan for three
41:13
months and have this whole thing like let's just
41:15
was his go and figured out as we go.
41:17
And Nairobi like is like that, like that, tracks
41:19
and people nuts, you know, any means are like
41:22
don't partner with that kind of person. If you're
41:24
not that kind of person, you constantly be in
41:26
conflict. I think I think that the
41:28
super important one. And and Jackie's definitely someone. That.
41:31
I think is similar to me. It's
41:33
just like. In. Of let's go let's
41:35
do the thing. Wow,
41:38
You have a lot that you've been diving
41:40
into. May be like how are we talked
41:43
about a domains ah I'm in terms of
41:45
were used to use them how use him
41:47
now how you see them now. He talked
41:49
about your newsletter and how your folks seem
41:52
to grow. That we've talked about the community
41:54
aspect and how your partner with Jackie like
41:56
Jeb you, the things that take up your
41:58
timer or your look. looking at doing
42:01
this year in terms of business
42:03
opportunity? Yeah,
42:05
I, speaking of partnerships,
42:09
have partnered with somebody to
42:12
build out a really like 10 out
42:16
of 10 top tier domain name in a
42:18
pretty lucrative space. I don't want to say
42:20
what the brand is at this point because
42:22
we're just getting started, but
42:25
it's for sure a million domain
42:27
name. And I
42:29
just, you know, they
42:31
reached out to me because I am
42:34
known in the domain investor
42:37
space as someone who has
42:39
SEO skills and, you know, they were
42:41
like, hey, I just acquired this domain. I want to see if
42:44
it makes sense to partner up. And we talked about
42:46
it and went back and forth and we're doing basically
42:48
a 50-50 split. Like this
42:50
guy brought the domain to the table.
42:55
I'm bringing the SEO and the content and
42:57
we're just going to, you know, go forward
42:59
and build it out and
43:01
see what happens. So that's
43:04
good. Oh, sorry. I was
43:06
going to ask, I didn't mean to cut you off. Is
43:08
that like what kind of what style of website is it?
43:10
Is it like a content site or is it a business
43:13
that is being launched on this age domain? Yes.
43:15
So the
43:18
obvious thing to do is
43:21
so this domain used to be a
43:23
business. The
43:25
domain by itself is really valuable, but
43:28
it also has a ton of
43:30
authority. Like it's almost DR
43:32
70 has a bunch of really
43:35
strong, real backlinks. And
43:38
it ranks for the main keyword, you
43:41
know, with an empty website, which
43:43
is amazing. It
43:45
gets about 2000 to
43:48
5000 traffic a day,
43:50
just on a dead website right
43:53
now, depending on what
43:55
Google's ranking. So like that,
43:57
that in itself is valuable. So I
44:00
was just like, man, like put
44:02
up an affiliate offer, like cash in.
44:04
But, you know, I already said like, that's
44:07
not the way to go. I think it's a
44:09
way we could go because the domain and the
44:11
brand is so strong. Um, but
44:13
what I'm trying to do is find somebody
44:16
who already has this
44:18
kind of product that we
44:20
can white label, put it on top of
44:22
the domain, because now we're a brand that
44:24
sells a product, which as I stated, I
44:27
think is a much stronger position to be
44:29
in than just a pure affiliate. Um,
44:31
we can definitely go in that direction, but you
44:34
know, I'm holding out for trying
44:36
to be a product and trying to integrate with
44:38
someone else. Cause I don't know the first thing
44:40
about the, I'm not an expert in the space,
44:42
but you know, I can, I can get the
44:44
content done, you know, I can get the, the
44:46
links. Um, all built out
44:48
and going where they need to. Um,
44:51
yeah, so that, that's a big
44:54
project. I think that's going to take a lot of time
44:56
this year. So I'm super excited about. Um,
44:58
yeah, that's, that's the word I was going to use.
45:01
How exciting. Oh my goodness. Yeah. I mean, so that,
45:03
that came about just, you know, publishing
45:05
stuff for four years, just kind of
45:08
built a reputation for myself. Well,
45:11
and that's the hidden value of say a
45:13
newsletter that perhaps is hard to put a
45:15
dollar price on. Like we,
45:17
you know, we talked about how to get new
45:20
subscribers and you know, we, we didn't really get
45:22
into monetization, but you kind of mentioned like, Hey,
45:24
I'm trying to partner up my readers with good
45:26
opportunities that I see in the space and stuff,
45:28
but the secondary benefits and
45:30
the tertiary benefits that come from having
45:32
a newsletter and even, you know, potentially
45:34
other opportunities that come along that already
45:36
have or will come along in the
45:39
future that don't even get mentioned to
45:41
the newsletter, but you know, you
45:43
get an introduction from someone who was on
45:45
your newsletter and you know, et cetera, et
45:48
cetera. So it's hard to put that in value,
45:50
but it's also important for people to take
45:52
into consideration when they invest in projects like that.
45:54
Yep. Yeah. It's yeah. It's one of
45:57
those things that you said you can't really
45:59
assign a value. to it or be like, oh, this
46:01
happened because of this. It's just like I
46:03
published stuff. I had published for the last four or
46:05
five years and now like starting to
46:08
pay dividends. Yeah. Yeah.
46:10
I've talked, I've told Spencer like off air when we've,
46:12
when we chatted about it. Like I've been hosting this
46:14
podcast for a couple of years now and we
46:16
don't really ever talk about my marketing agency,
46:19
but I definitely get the occasional person who's
46:21
like, Oh yeah, well, you know, I've listened
46:23
to you here, there on the podcast and
46:25
I follow you on Twitter and, and, and,
46:27
but really what I'm looking at is your
46:29
expertise in this SEO question, but you just
46:31
never know which connected first and how many
46:34
dots it took to connect and all that.
46:36
So anyways, just piggybacking on what
46:38
you're doing. How do you spend
46:41
your time and how do you, you
46:43
know, set your kind of, I don't want to get
46:45
too tactical on like time structuring and stuff, but I'm
46:47
just trying to understand like you have
46:49
a lot going on and they're in a lot
46:52
of different spaces, right? Like a newsletter is very
46:54
different than creating a website on an age domain
46:56
in a partnership, which is very different from running
46:58
a community, which is very,
47:00
and so how do you kind of plan out your,
47:02
your, your week or your time or how do you
47:05
think these things through to kind of get these different
47:07
things accomplished? Yeah. I'm, I'm
47:10
the wrong person to be giving good
47:12
advice here because mostly how I do
47:14
things is just reacting to whatever the
47:16
loudest, you know, most
47:18
pressing matter is historically the whole,
47:20
you know, ADHD, which
47:23
I totally have thing. But
47:25
it's, it's something I've been working on for
47:27
years to get better at. And,
47:31
and I think just that slow work
47:33
has, has paid off a
47:35
little bit and allows me to be
47:38
able to plan until like switch gears,
47:40
you know, get everything
47:42
done. I also
47:44
recently hired an executive assistant,
47:47
which helps a lot getting,
47:49
getting to a place where I can afford that
47:51
has been Super helpful. But Really
47:53
like, you know, the other side of that is
47:56
just having like being able to build a good
47:58
team. The
48:00
able to know. What? You're
48:02
good at and what you're terrible
48:04
at. I'm terrible at like really.
48:07
I. Don't know, I don't. I like
48:10
the administrative side of things, but
48:12
like remembering to. Yeah.
48:14
No I don't know testing examples but
48:17
the just by. Being. The responsible
48:19
person I'm I'm historically not great at
48:21
Adam, much better at like dreaming up.
48:23
Oh, let's do this with. Like
48:26
in. A being creative and I'm.
48:29
And. And building new products are
48:31
new businesses. So
48:33
yeah, I spend my time probably
48:35
badly. There's probably you know that,
48:38
like an engine that consumes a
48:40
lot of gas but doesn't go
48:42
very fast. I think Historically Guy
48:44
has been my productivity style and
48:46
that something I'm getting better on
48:49
because the like, If you're doing
48:51
this, many projects have to. Am
48:53
I didn't talk, ever talked about my
48:56
publishing company but I also started one
48:58
of those and it. It's. Just.
49:01
You. Gotta. Get year. Your.
49:05
Organization. Together to be able to do all
49:08
this where you won't be doing all of this. right?
49:11
right? Well I think you're doing all right. you
49:13
know? I mean if he talked about all the
49:15
different things you haven't we didn't talk about a
49:18
lot of you know the I know cause you've
49:20
shared them publicly. Zoc are just tap. Been in
49:22
yeah someone in your community for quite a while
49:24
now like you've had a lot of big axis
49:26
of the years. you know if a lot of
49:29
website accepts you saw little projects like companies and
49:31
stuff like that. So I'm. Clearly.
49:35
He said engine. the can seems lot of gas.
49:37
There's output at the end of it. You know
49:39
any. Go on. how can has estrogenic? That's kind
49:41
of that. The important thing like. Everyone.
49:44
Has to decide what sort of shiny objects
49:46
to lean into and terms of that's worth
49:48
my time and I'm going to make a
49:51
go because I don't know how ah how
49:53
much it how much you could i be
49:55
an influence vs say no to something and
49:57
same like at still a good idea but.
50:00
For. Every the right now I have to say no to
50:02
that. I think that's where the toughest things that. All.
50:04
Of us have to go through is what
50:06
to say yes you what to say no
50:08
to having multiple projects in the value of
50:10
having some diversity and having are at different
50:13
hours in the fire vs been spread too
50:15
thin and and been a no good for
50:17
nothing related. Yeah. For sure
50:19
as strongly agree with him. In
50:22
in that vein, let me ask you. Are there
50:24
any? Is there anything that you would love to
50:26
get into? right? Now because you
50:28
know the the idea is super engaging,
50:31
are attractive or something but you're saying
50:33
no to this year is. Nothing
50:37
comes to mind. mostly because I
50:39
usually say yes the details and
50:41
then I'm off of that. I'm
50:44
really trying hard to stick focuses
50:46
year. He
50:49
you know I I I think there's
50:51
a like how that is coming out.
50:53
If I'm releasing Focus is like okay
50:55
I got is publishing company we're going
50:57
to do for been released four bucks
51:00
a year and like oh what if
51:02
we really like to read novel let's
51:04
you know, shorter like oh what about
51:06
this idea So with them the idea
51:08
there's still a lot of you know
51:10
and disciplines focus but at least I'm
51:13
keeping it in the. In the
51:15
right bucket. Which. Took
51:17
a lot of effort to get to that point. Yeah,
51:20
Yeah, that makes sense. That's awesome. Awesome What
51:22
you do have a newsletter where people can
51:24
follow along with you on can you share
51:26
a little bit more about me? Wouldn't from
51:28
the So now I know it's Sovereign. The
51:30
web sites rank theory.com but sure more about
51:32
Like is what people can expect if they
51:34
do a newsletter arm. you can have gone
51:36
through a lot of that but I'm you
