$0 to $4,000 per month in 1 year with a Blog in 2022 - How we'd do it
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 5 มิ.ย. 2024
- Getting to a full-time income with a blog is a great goal, and one that a lot of our members achieve. But doing it in a year requires a serious and directed effort. In this video we lay out exactly the strategy we're using right now to build new sites, rank content, get traffic, and monetize it all quickly enough to achieve a full-time income faster than ever. This is exactly how I would take a new blog to $4,000 per month in just one year.

Doing it right now. 3 months in, 17 thousand plus monthly page views, $200 month.
Thank you.
So does their methods really work?
whats your niche ?
What about now..did u quit too?
define "Search Analysis"
Bro i commend you SO MUCH, i'll be honest.. I thought once Jim left the channel would fizzle out and die, but i'll be honest.. I feel the videos have gotten BETTER. Keep crushing it bro and i'm going to keep watching and supporting brother.. Great job!
I absolutely agree, I had the same fears, but we see the real Ricky know. He stood in the background but has now the room to shine.
Way to keep it honest.
Why’d Jim leave? Is it due to that hunting thing he’s doing now?
@@Yarrney think he said he wants to focus on his own thing..
@@ambitiousjohns thanks man!
You guys changed my life. Thank you so much for being there all the time. Although I never bought project 24 because I was not able to afford it in my early days but I will just buy it to support your setup now as I get successful with my sites due to your content. Thank you. For a person sitting miles away from the shores of America in a third-world country, even a failed blog can make wonders due to the currency exchange rate. Thanks
Hi, please can you help me know whether you built your site in English or in your own language? And what courses helped you achieve that?
@@joebadger2409 I made my site in English and I recommend you to do the same. No language other than English can help you make big money with ads since top dollars come from the American audience only. So if you are aiming to make money, target American audience followed by the UK, Australia, and New Zealand. And as all of these countries have English-speaking people, you have to make site in the same langauage.
I used to be a freelance writer with clients on Upwork and Fiverr. So it was more like a transition for me like writing content for my own sites instead of that of clients. But this very channel helped me in learning search analysis which is crucial for blog success. I never paid even a cent for any paid course.
@@arslanajmal9994 I once had a client on Upwork who's a P24 member. Hoping I could transition the way you do, though I'd probably purchase the course before I make some money from the blog.
last year i made loss in blogging but now i have started my hustle again, one day i will come here again and comment like you
how much are you making now?
Interesting thoughts here, though people should know the average is a bit inflated because some people just do exceptionally well and drive that number up. I've been doing this for 2 years and have around 170 posts on my main site and it earns $1500 per month. I've seen others at similar numbers, some less, some more. But I feel like for most people that's a more reasonable expectation which to me is still an AMAZING accomplishment.
May I know your monetization strategy? Is it ads or Amazon affiliates?
@@JoeMac1983 rewrite them. I rewrote many of my early articles
@@JoeMac1983 exactly, good point
@@magicblogging both ads and Amazon. Ezoic ads make up the majority of the income
@@TortoiseCashFlow Thanks!
Thank you guys so much for this video. I really appreciate how much you share without holding back. Your intent seems so pure, to give information that works on its own without having to join Income School. It is a blessing to those of us who are startig out and do not have the budget for a good course. I built my website last year and kept watching different videos on TH-cam and really got into analysis paralysis. Now I have a clear road map to move forward. Thank you and I plan to join Income School - just putting it out there in the ethers. May your success continue to increase exponentially.
You guys have done a fabulous job..these videos are super encouraging and make us want to reach for the stars..keep going..I have watched yall for a while and even with such a big change in your original group you just keep going and keep getting better!
Subscribed! You guys are great. Thank you for your interview on the side hustle review podcast!
I have been mapping these out into quarterly goals every time there is a white board video. This has definitely matured. Great insights! Thanks for putting so much thought into it. I also L❤VE how you include more members of the team in a little story!
That's gotta be one of the best videos about blogging I've ever watched, absurd quality. Thanks a lot. I'm gonna use this guide as reference. 👍
Thank you, great job Ricky, Nathan & Anna, keep up the great work. Really appreciate this video and how carefully everything is explained. Creatives like me get much more than you know from your videos and my takeaway from this one in ideas and inspiration was so appreciated. Thank you to the entire team. All the best throughout 2022 to all of you and to everyone reading this. Appreciative Creative Beginner
Guys, thank you so much! You're definitely one of my best findings of 2022. ❤
So glad I joined Income School! Everything I have tried in your TH-cam videos has caused noticeable changes in viewers- I can't wait to make this happen😁
Great informative video guys. Thank you!
I’m in a high paying niche and my epmv is no where near 32 dollars. I average 20. I also think 700+ page views per article is VERY inflated. You’d have to have an insane number of winner articles that bring in tons of traffic and most articles won’t be winners to that magnitude. I’d consider an article bringing 200+ pageviews a month good. Niches are way to saturated and you’d need a crazy good unsaturated niche to even get close to these numbers.
I am 30 posts in and getting about 32k page views per month. I am in the art niche and my EPMV is close to $30 and that is with crappy affiliate money currently and no other monetization. I know a lot of people in project 24 that are at 700+ per article and some are in some crazy saturated niches. It is possible if done correctly.
Those average values Ricky is talking about is over a TON of P24 members.
Also, the posts of (Let's say) 2 last months will take time to rank, so the maths of earning 4k$ isnt exact.
Should take more time 🙂
@@davidvoorhies812 my article get $12 per 1000 views…. I wonder why. I am with ESLÖV and in the pet niche
@@davidvoorhies812 So your epmv is 32 on ezoic or some other ad network or are you combining everything? I’m mostly talking about ezoic.
I also know it is possible to get super good traffic with a lower number of articles but it’s hit or miss. Sometimes you will hit gold and sometimes you will hit dirt. Overall it’s not likely the average person is going to average 700 pageviews per month per article. If you are that’s fantastic but you are the exception, not the rule.
@@Its_Just_Brad I think that is where your limiting beliefs are hurting you. You need to give more credit to yourself.
In project 24 over a sample of about 1000 people the average *and mean* of those people are getting 700 or more pages per article and the average ad revenue is $32. My average in the crappy beginning of year (Jan 1 to today) EPMV for only Ezoic $33.89. It can be done. Even in competitive niches (albeit they take a bit longer) you can achieve this as an average person. Also, I am definitely an average person when it comes to my writing compared to some of the people in my masterminds and focus groups.
By following a good process and solid writing of helpful content even an average person can have success.
I will also say that having a decent video for some or all of your content is almost a requirement now in the age of Google/TH-cam.
More quality content in less time = faster results 🔥 looking forward to the content warrior challenge next month!
Thanks for sharing the numbers, and a tangible plan :D I am trying to grow my blog, just started, two articles out in the world, will see how that goes.
THIS!!! This break down helps understand and see what others do not share!
I appreciate the study and the breakdown based on pure, numbered results. Well done.
UH- mazing content organized into actionable and clear steps. For anyone who is feeling lost with their blog and need some structure, this is the video for you!
This is an incredibly detailed break-down which is great for new and inspiring bloggers. I just had one request, can you do a sample video picking a topic and breaking down the details of search analysis for complete beginners. I’ve seen all videos on Income School, but I still feel a video on complete beginners way of doing search analysis is missing. Maybe could you show us a sample blog niche and breakdown the first 30 search analysis topics for it? I’d love to see that!
You guys are the cat's meow. Thanks for breaking this down so specifically. I'm going to breathe new life into a blog with this formula. Gracias.
I love this I'm trying to do this for my TH-cam channel! One delish !
I love the content and the effort you guys put into these videos. I see lots of love in the comments but none saying that they will be testing this video's teachings. I have just made a brand new site With No Content on it I will take up this challenge. Thanks for the roadmap guy now I know where to start.
how is your site doing? Any success?
Nice... amazing content here!
Great info thanks!! 🙌
Awesome info as usual
Will leep learning from all ofyour videos. Thanks a lot
Ok, who wants to try this!? I want to see what I can do.
The energy, production and organization of this video is great!
Thanks guys. I had some setbacks on my site, but I'm getting back at it. Just need to keep on chugging.
Awesome video!
Excellent work. Thanks.
Unlike 99.999% videos out there, u give a realistic time frame
Great content!
I started in January, published the first 9 articles in one micro niche, now I've written around 20 more articles but i haven't published them yet. This is helping a looot. I will add my affiliate links, then make interlinking, before publishing more. I'm late as what've planned first (i can write 60k in 10 days only) but now ive shifted my goal to publish at least 200 neat article by the end of the year. Hopefully I'm on the right path.
It's daunting to see this amount of work, but it is also motivational. Even if you end up with 25% of the money mentioned, that's a great base for years 2 and 3 onwards. And a lot more than if you sit thinking about it but doing nothing
@@iatealready5544 For real? what is a realistic number you say for a year worth of blogging I should be aiming for. I am currently at month 2
Thank you!
Interesting Video. Nice clear concise.
I'm just starting In this business and I'm going to follow your plan, will also update you guys as I progress.
Thank you for helping newbies like me on how to start in this new world.
That is close to what i am seeing also....thanks Ricky and Nathan....
I have been mapping these out into quarterly goals every time there is a white board video.
Excellent video. Thank you.
This is exciting! When is the next Content Warrior challenge? I saw they mentioned it's coming up in a recent podcast (mid Feb), but I'm not a member yet so I couldn't listen lol!!
IM IN ❤️
Thanks guys good job!! It will truly take quite a long time to get to 4K a month for beginners like us.
Useful info for every beginners . Its very impressive
Great video, thank you.
This is a lot of articles. Now... how to know if you chose the right niche. How to know when to pivot and when to keep going?
I appreciate your help. All these videos are worth a lot In my country. Some people who have this kind of knowledge are busy selling for $$$ but you gave it out free. I'm grateful for this. I have been sharing and trying to recommend all your content to my group members so that they can also watch it. I think these are the least I can do to reward. #incomeschool
From Nigeria 🇳🇬🇳🇬
I love that attitude, success is better together bro!
The results look promising, but just learning how it's imperative to have plenty of content and do search analysis is already a big takeaway for me. I don't write and publish daily so I've got to start again from search analysis, then work my way up because my prospect topics aren't that interlinked with one another and don't fall under 2 to 3 categories yet.
Starting from today, will update here after a month!!
Always valuable. My goal is to finish every single video on your TH-cam channel. 😅
I'm so glad I stumbled on this channel. Go Ricky go...from a new sub
Thanks! Welcome to the channel
Nice video guys. Im confused by your Amazon statement a little tho, there was a video back during the commission change where you made a blanket statement you were taking all the amazon ads off all your sites. I take it you didn't go that far? Just curious. Thanks again, I binged a lot of videos over the weekend. :)
best thing I like about this video is that it doesn't bluff about how to make money online. So many online courses try to sell us the get-rich-quick scheme which is ridiculous
I'm just start learning about blogging and get excited, but I have only 1 hour a day, plus my weekends. This is a good plan, but for my case I should do some adjustment related to the revenue plan.
I would like to see more content on monetization: who here sells PDFs or courses? That process, building an email list, that kind of stuff. Most subscribers have started a blog already if I had to guess. We don’t need any more niche selection ideas or how to start a blog type of content.
I know you said how many blog posts you need to hit that goal, but it would be great to know what percentage of blog posts actually hit the recommended minimum number of monthly page views.
This is really motivating for every beginner. Though the figures seem big, we just have to work.
Hi! How may I help you?
Great both guys. Thank you I have a question, How we create a video without experiencing every produt?
Gosh this way of clear thinking is incredible . My ePMV has fluctuated from 8 to 44 dollars because of multiple factors haha . The assumptions can change for sure haha .
amazing.. Thanks
Cool video 😎
Great tips, question on embedding Tiktok videos instead? When I do I believe there is video markup with that, is it not as strong? Should I be adding these videos to TH-cam instead and embed that way? thanks.
Thanks guys, i follow you from april with my secondary email and now i make 400€/month with 1 hour work daily.Thanks again
Great video! Wonder whether the introduction of Auto Ads in Adsense is a way of trying to bridge the gap for some of the AI features of Ezoic?
incredible!!!
Wow...impressive!
Nathan what is your black board called....where did you buy it....thanks Greg
Wow interesting video, I love you guys actually workshopped and worked it out
Nice video. What if I have tags in place of subcategories. Will that work?
Thanks!

Got 70k views with 75 articles at just over 13 months old, you're teaching gold!
in which month did you see the hockey stick
@@MohamedMed-ip6tp I didn't really get that shape. It grew by 50-100% most months, but jumped about 250% between months 6 and 7. It's a lower competition, lower epmv niche, though
Would love to get a more in depth search analysis guide!
Great video very informative. Can you guys make a series in which you make a new blog and make good profit from it within a year
I just started my website 3 months ago, so let’s see how it will turn out in a year’s time.
For the videos on your blog. Do they need to be from your own channel? What about other people's channels is that permitted?
I got rejected by Ezoic, they said I have bot traffics. You made many videos like this. I love these, No complain. But can you please make a video on website security, traffic modifications, firewall settings. Not much. But atleast how to block/reduce bad traffic. This is very important.
Do you guys have a way in P24 to determine what will be a good niche? How to know if its too high competition or what?
Numbers are not relevant because earnings depends on various things. However, the info and method you shared are pretty helpful for making a site successful.
On a previous video of yours, you mentioned that the first 30 posts should be 10 Response, 10 Staple, and 10 Pillar posts. Should you maintain that 30% moving forward IE should a 99 blog post site have 33 Response, 33 Staple, and 33 Pillar posts? How do you recommend maintaining a reasonable ratio as you grow?
This mentality has changed over time, especially with google changes. Write what search analysis gives you and early on it's good to go for long tail keywords and response posts so you can get fast EAT and a big number of articles to bring you traffic.
I'm in P24 and just starting my 7th month. On my 80th article now and I have 26 who are Staples (with some around 4000 words) and 54 response posts.
P24 kinda dropped their mentions of pillars and combined pillars and staples into staples.
I genuinely curious if you've ever looked at the numbers for a site that's entirely the site owner's own products and affiliate income? I'm thinking that you may not have access to a sufficiently large data pool, but since it's what I'm working on, I'm curious.
I would think you would have done a ton of research to make your product enticing to a buyer. So what info would that buyer be looking for? Then tell them why your product scratches that itch. That’s what you need to write about. So then these numbers would be similar, I think.
I'd really appreciate if you guys made a video on search analysis, is this the same as SEO? What are some things to look out for, a well rounded video on this would be heavily appreciated.
I would imagine that’s the content you have to pay for in their course. Search analysis is basically their topic and keyword research, which is absolutely the foundation of any successful site.
I have a site that has nearly 100 posts. My approach was scattershot - I knew the niche I wanted to enter, and just had a bunch of articles written in that niche - I did absolutely no keyword research.
As a result the site makes around $600 a month at its peak each year, and drops to around $150 a month during the quieter parts of the year. This is because there is 1 article that has ranked very well in the site, but it’s a seasonal topic.
So if I had done better (or any!) keyword research, the site would undoubtedly be earning well into the thousands per month at this stage.
What if 50% of the Page Views have CC in hand and what to buy immediately??
For that alter your analysis results?
Where can I learn more about search analysis? Thanks for a great video! :)
What length do you recommend per article? I read that an SEO optimised article should be between 2000-2500 words. That seems like a lot to do everyday and keep high quality content. Especially writing them in evenings after a whole day at work, looking after family etc.
We start at 1,000 words. But some topics merit the 2000+. It’s just often not necessary.
The ideal length is between 1500-2000 words per article. I have been touching the low mark(1500) with some post also around 1000-1200.
Hallo Income School, I must confess that you are a great team. I have been watching your videos and I am getting tons of tips. My concern however is revolving around how the specific location of the blogger can influence this income range. You see, I am a Kenyan freelance writer and unlike writers from US or UK, it's hard to get well-paying clients irrespective of how good I am in what I do since am not regarded as a native English speaker. My question is, can the location of the blogger affect how good my blog would do?
@ManuelO Speaks thanks so much
What about ezoic videos? What do you think is better creating a TH-cam channel or creating the videos on the ezoic platform?
Hi,
the Acabado theme is having issue with the mobile hamburger menu in the latest update of the theme, when will you fix it?
How if the epmv of site is really low... Should the blogger continue the site or just burn it?
Great content, thanks ! How about infographics ?
@income School; Amazing video to learn from. But do you guys find an optimized way to achieve that? any follow up video?
In watching some other videos, I have seen that a common practice would be to write about 30 or so articles per site then move on to another site/niche. While I am sure that this does not bring up the same kind of authority that doing writing 210 posts on one topic would, it is certainly a strategy I have seen other videos talk about. What are your thoughts here? One mega site or basically like 7 smaller "complete" by googles definition, but not as authoritative sites?
What wordpress theme would you recommend for organic SEO?
Rick, I have yet to learn how to do the linking; you sure have videos about it. Please, when you have time, point me to those videos. Kind regards
How do you manage affiliate links on posts that have a cookie duration of 24hrs. >Amazon products. What would you suggest in this aspect or do differently?
Amazon´s cookies are crap. Go for aff programs with longer cookie life, there are lots out there.
When you talk about blogs on my website, should the blogs be written blogs or video blogs.
Does this mean that we only need to come up with articles that are low competition, that easily get ranked up on Google, only for the first month? How about the rest of the months? Should we still make sure that the articles we come up with are low competition or not necessarily?
How much time do you estimate for follow your plan?
Am doing this challenge, I already reach 3 blog posts 😂 I have a long way to go and am not giving up.
