New Google Update + Affiliate Site Making $6 million/month

Well, this week in Niche Pursuits News...there's a lot of news!

I sat down with Jared to discuss all the latest happenings in the SEO and affiliate marketing industry.

You can listen to or watch the full episode of This Week in Niche Pursuits News Here

First, Google just started rolling out the latest version of the Reviews update on Wednesday.

And of course, the November core update is happening right now as well.

So, does Google actually listen to the complaints, suggestions, and "chatter" of SEOs?

Well, the answer is definitely yes, and Danny Sullivan (Google Search Liason) has evidence to prove it.

We also share an article written by the Verge that was intentionally written with AI, pokes fun at Google, and is still ranking really well for "best printers 2023"

It's kinda crazy.

Next, we share the analysis done by Glen Allsop and why he thinks The Wirecutter (an affiliate site acquired by the New York Times), is now doing $6 Million per month in revenue.

He has numbers to back it up from reliable sources.

Then Jared and I jump into 2 weird niche sites.

First up is a site about "Miss Rachel", the YouTube star. As we discuss, we find out live that this site is likely using black hat strategies to build links...listen in to see that unfold.

Oh and finally, Jared shares a site about measuring things...and it crashes the podcast recording multiple times...

Overall, if you want to stay up to date on the SEO and affiliate marketing industry, I HIGHLY recommend that you listen to the full episode right here.


Want an Alternative to GA4?

During the episode, I announced that Rank Logic (my new WordPress plugin) is releasing a Google Analytics integration!

What this means is that you can now get all your Google Analytics 4 data directly in WordPress...in an EASY to use and understand format!

That's right, you can now just log into your website to get all your stats instead of trying to find your way around GA4.

This feature will be released as part of Rank Logic next week.

Anyone who already has Rank Logic or anyone who buys in the future will get access to this Google Analytics dashboard.

Go Ahead and Try Rank Logic Right Here

This is one of many features that Rank Logic has to help you better analyze your keyword rankings, content performance, and much more.

Hope you have a great weekend!
