Are you tired of the daily grind and looking for a way to make a full-time income online? Look no further than the world of Search Engine Optimization (SEO). With the right strategy and dedication, you can turn your passion into profit.
In this secret and fast-forward guide, I’ll walk you through the steps to create a sustainable online income using just SEO.
So, let’s get started.
- Create a Niche Website
The first step on your journey to online income is to create a niche website. Yes, no more general blogs or websites without any specific and focused topic. You also have to choose a niche that genuinely interests you because you’ll be investing time and effort into it. Your website will become your online business hub so make sure you pick a topic you can easily write about.
Actionable Tip: After 50+ posts that you have to create using keyword research and targeting low competition keywords and then waiting for 2 months, you can monetize your website with display ads and affiliate offers for the next 6 months. This initial income will help sustain your project as it grows.
- Power it with SEO
SEO is the backbone of online success. Start by focusing on long-tail keywords that are in low competition using Ahrefs and SEMrush, especially if your website is new and lacks authority. These keywords are easier to rank for and can drive valuable organic traffic for free.
Actionable Tip: Create a goal of developing 100 SEO assets, such as articles, videos, or infographics, to build a robust online presence that attracts backlinks so you don’t have to pay or do any blackhat methods just for creating backlinks.
- Create a Lead Magnet
Your email list is a valuable asset for future revenue growth and it is also a speedbreaker for any chance of your site being hit by a Google Algo update. Create a lead magnet, like a free eBook, template, or course, to entice visitors to subscribe and eventually give their email addresses to you.
Actionable Tip: Offer a high-quality lead magnet that addresses a specific problem your audience faces and then ask them to provide their email address to find the solution. You can then use these email addresses for getting targetted traffic and even monetize your email list for making some extra money.
- Acquire Backlinks
After all, backlinks are crucial for SEO and as I said create some linkable assets like data-driven content or free tools that others in your niche will want to link to. Then, start a blogger outreach campaign to secure more relevant and high quality backlinks.
Actionable Tip: You should send at least 10 outreach emails per day promoting your link worthy assets, gradually building a network of quality backlinks.
- Document Your Results
Every keyword you rank for is a victory for your website/blog. Document your progress meticulously, including rankings, traffic, conversions, and all ups and downs. This data will be invaluable in the future.
Actionable Tip: You can also use tools like Google Analytics and Search Console beside Ahrefs and SEMrush to track your website’s performance for free.
- Use Your Results to Generate Cash Flow
With a portfolio of results like 100+ daily organic traffic, 100+ daily email traffic and some social media traffic too, you can take on client SEO projects such as promoting their websites on your site and showing the stats to your clients for winning jobs for SEO, etc. This provides seed capital for scaling your niche site and expanding your income streams to eventually make a living out of your blog.
Actionable Tip: Offer your services on freelancing platforms or reach out to businesses looking to improve their online presence and show them your niche site, this way you can easily start making $5,000+ every month.
- Scale Your Efforts
As you gain more clients or invest in your niche site to make it a passive earning source, your income will grow. You should continuously add to your portfolio some insights of results to make it easier to close SEO deals.
Actionable Tip: You can also consider outsourcing tasks or hiring help to handle the increasing workload and have complete peace of mind.
Flip it
Finally, after you reach some audience and start making at least $100+ every month from your blog, you can easily flip it on Flippa, Empire Flippers, Website Broker, Motion Invest, FE International, Investors Club, or some other trusted website flipping services.
It will give you instant liquidity and help you earn at least $20K to $30K easily. That’s a great way to capitalize on making websites and then selling to others to make quick money.
However, that’s not an easy way, you will need to provide complete details about each and everything and be loyal to the investor (the person who is purchasing your site).
PS:
To me, there’s no reason why you can’t achieve a monthly income of $5,000 – $10,000 or more by following this simple and straightforward blogging roadmap. The key is dedication, consistent effort, and a passion for the niche you choose in the first place.
