For a year and a half, the website showed no signs of life at all. And then suddenly, it took off.
The reason?
If I knew, I would tell you 🙂
I realize more and more that it’s impossible to understand how Google works—it’s a black box. The only clear thing is that you need to do more. And as soon as you do more, you get a formula like this: 20% of websites generate 80% of the money, but I don’t know exactly which ones will perform, so I do everything I can 🙂
It’s precisely these 20% of sites that pay off all investments and yield a great ROI.
It’s not in our power to understand Google; it’s in our power to do MORE.
I bought an expired domain on a GoDaddy auction for $100 and it popped off, even though according to all the online advice, you shouldn’t buy that kind of expired domain. But it worked!)
People often think you have to wait a long time with Google. That’s partially true—I shared analytics on how sites perform in Google here.
If you build 1 website, you’ll be waiting. But what if you build 10? Meaning, instead of sitting around complaining about how slow Google is, you work on the next thing?
And the wait isn’t always long—earlier I mentioned a website listing that was listed for sale at $200,000 just 10 months after launch. Just 10 months.
