- Use multi-marketplace upload tools, this helps you upload to as many different marketplaces as quickly as possible. Note: some people choose not to use some marketplaces due to their policies and/or pricing, or out of protest of the current microstock market.
- Organize your folders correctly, and ALWAYS have redundant backups with physical harddrives and a cloud service as backup.
- Have your specific location tags done by hand for accuracy, but use AI to quickly generate your other tags.

spending hundreds of dollars every year
damn dude, that is some really expensive hosting... you can easily switch hosts and save a ton
plenty of great hosting services for 5$ bucks a month or 60$ per year or less
you could host a Ghost blog on managed hosting Pikapods for like 2$ per month
Should you add a Non-Dismissible "Turn Off AdBlock" Message on your Affiliate Marketing Website?
no
try it and watch your traffic diminish
ain't nobody got time for that
Are user comments worth the hassle?
they aren't a hassle
there are some small SEO benefits.
small benefits? the benefit is that you are building a community with regular returning traffic, which is great for SEO
And on average, 9 out of 10 comments that reach my queue are spammers.
get a better captcha system, you need something like ReCaptcha and Askimet on top of Cloudflare
do you simply not allow comments on your blog?
that would be a mistake
Are ads on your website purely to make money?
usually
I do not like the way it looks. It’s also super annoying for me when a website is crawling with ads.
agreed, that's why I focus on affiliate marketing instead
Is it important to run ads for anything other than making money?
maybe...
Do you need to advertise another website without charging them? Does your friend have a website in a similar niche that you want to help promote? Is there some non-profit organization that you feel strongly about? Do you use a free host that requires your site to contain their ads in exchange for the free hosting?
You need to make money somehow to pay for your hosting and domain name, otherwise a website is just a drag on your finances.
Publishing AI writing is not a winning strategy, is it?
nope
for some reason, many people think that they can get rich quickly by generating tons of bad-quality AI-written articles that contain false or outdated information
if you are going to use AI, you need to be good at editing and fact-checking
Sorry, but it looks horrible and I would never visit a site like this. Random page title, bad URL unrelated to site title, repetitive slogan, typo in slogan, bad graphic design of featured images, unprofessional gmail contact address, overly broad niche, bad color theory in theme, no contact form, too much white space when ads are blocked, etc.
1300-1500 words is a must?
No.
Will that affect my SEO?
Yes.
500-800 words, does Google consider that less worthy?
It depends on the context.
Look at the top 3 results in the SERP for your target keyword, note how many words they are using. That is the number of words that the search engine wants to see.
without me having to give tax transcripts over to these third party background companies
I've been background checked by a few different background check companies and they never asked me to provide tax transcripts. The last one I did was for a large corporation that does contracts with the federal government for staffing on federal land, and they did not ask for tax transcripts.
My criminal history is 0
then you don't need to worry about background checks, because that is what these background checks are focused on
Why? Is it just slow sales, artist's margin, or something you don't agree with in their terms?
Does anyone know what to do about it?
the best method is to start with a micro niche, then slowly expand into the broader niche as your website grows
Is there a Website where i can provide images to journalists or Bloggers for their posts and in return they will credit my website? Basically getting a Backlink in return
yes, unsplash.com
If you don't have a lot of time or resources, do SEO and avoid social media. SEO is much more important for long-term growth.
Kindly guide me on how many niches one should have on a blogging site
one
Should I need to delete off-topic articles?
yes
Can I use the content of my own blog to create YouTube videos?
yes
So my question is, does it violate any Google guidelines or terms and conditions? Will it hurt my website in any way?
no
I recommend buying a domain. Subdomains look unprofessional. Your current URL would be complicated to use in a real-life conversion, and most people would never remember it. A real domain costs 10$ per year.
it seems that Medium is the move from a community and monetization standpoint
Nah. Ghost and WordPress are wayyyyy better, this way you actually own YOUR website. It's much better to build your own website;
- more control of everything
- additional monetization methods
- bigger audience potential
- higher traffic potential
- not being locked down into a proprietary platform, the freedom to move your content anywhere at any time
- no middleman taking a large percentage of your customer's membership fee
- freedom of design and branding
- open-source platforms with additional features built and maintained by thousands of developers
- freedom to automate backups however you like
- the benefits of using SEO plugins like Yoast or RankMath
- the freedom to join a publishers advertising network like Google's Adsense
- the professional appearance of having your own site instead of looking like a Medium page, people trust you more
- and so much more!
What do you mean by "good companies"? Your looking for examples of other people using Printify for dropshipping their t-shirts? Your looking for website builder platforms that integrate with Printify for selling t-shirts?
Is an art blog worth building?
yes
art, this means music, painting, digital, fashion art etc etc etc
choose only one subject if you want to get more traffic
How do I get a domain?
How much would it cost?
About 10$ per year for the domain and 10$ per month for hosting.
How do I make a website on a domain?
You connect your domain with DNS settings to the server/host that your website is located on.
How do I attract viewers?
good content and SEO
new topic ideas are different than the previous blog topics. Is it advisable to repurpose the existing blog or start fresh?
depends on how different the topics are, if they are completely different subjects then you need to start a completely different site
if they are related, use the same time
small payments, not small photos, bigger photos are better
Is it worth to start selling stock photos in 2023?
photography
