A New Site with an Awesome Growth Trajectory

Hidden Gems of Niche Research, Big Discounts on Premium Aged Domains, The Ultimate Textbroker Review, and a Drupal vs Wordpress Showdown...

I love niche research.

Sometimes I'll choose a niche and go down an Ahrefs rabbit hole.

It's really easy to do. You just pick a topic and search relevant keywords. If you can find sites with DR 35 or below ranking in the top 10, you got yourself an opportunity.

I came across one of these kinds of sites a while back. It was during my owntheyard.com days so I was curious about everything outdoors related.

In my search, I stumbled across a site called Outforia. It was a new site that looked nice but hadn't yet gained much traction.

Fast forward to today (less than a year later) and that site is now generating an estimated 138,000 organic monthly visitors.

Now let me caveat this by saying this site is likely not their first rodeo. The team behind the site obviously know what they're doing.

Hint: Check out their About Us section (they seem to be doing great with HARO), and post layout (author section, table of contents, etc.).

Pretty cool stuff!

So how has this happened? Well, beside quality HARO links, it looks like they also built cool content about nature. Check out their top pages (according to Ahrefs that is):

I like that even though they're an outdoors site, they weren't fazed by Covid (maybe it actually helped?).

They started in December 2020 and still managed to grow to a significant size and that growth shows no signs of slowing.

Maybe we'll get the owner of the site on the podcast some day.

Anyways I hope this example inspires you!
