Apr 2, 202400:10:00Tap to summarizeDid Google kill blogging? With Google's "Helpful Content Update" and other algorithm updates, should you start a blog, today? Here are 5 things you must consider before starting a blog in 2024. Google's Core Update that has been rolling out through March 2024 (as explained in this video - www.youtube.com/watch?v=gawQ8s8pR8s&t=0s has caused a lot of pain and questions from bloggers, niche site owners, and affiliates... The big question is: Is blogging dead? And... Should you start a new blog in 2024? Some folks are saying blogging is gone and it's time to move on to YouTube or social media traffic. Now, I've been teaching folks how to blog here on YouTube for nearly a decade here, and the core How To Blog training is still relevant - www.youtube.com/watch?v=GRPBDCoTaGM&list=PL0sOKzn__yK2yKtTKx0SS78Q9GLpnZ0l-&index=1&t=0s But man folks are scared that blogging is dead. Yet, others are doubling down on their blogs in hopes of a traffic recovery from the Google algorithm update. But, is there a middle ground for bloggers? Can you still use a blog to help you make money online without being all in on Google? Can you rise above the Google algorithm and SEO traffic schemes and still succeed? Do you need to buy SEO backlinks if you want to make it online? This video reveals the 5 ways that bloggers are still able to use their blogs to grow their businesses online without depending on traffic from Google. And, if you're struggling to drive traffic to your blog, watch this video for some much needed perspective: www.youtube.com/watch?v=sl32PZtFb5Y&list=PL0sOKzn__yK2yKtTKx0SS78Q9GLpnZ0l-&index=10&t=0s Because a Blog should not be your one and only traffic strategy. It should be 1 component in a broader traffic strategy as explained in this video here: www.youtube.com/watch?v=1WFqp53RazY&list=PL0sOKzn__yK2g4VZBBB2ZwvEGWtWnMrGV&index=1&t=0s Remember... No matter what happens in the world of SEO and Google Algorithm updates, you still need a place to publish your ideas, your tutorials, your reviews, your recommendations and your affiliate links! A YouTube channel is NOT enough for a long term successful online business, either. Now, I teach how to use YouTube to grow your business online here: www.youtube.com/watch?v=YUfQ88PCd-o&list=PL0sOKzn__yK2-3bo52OP_TTiFQope2r06&index=1&t=0s But again, thinking you can do ONLY YouTube and ignore the rest of the marketing channels (like having a blog, too) is EXTREMELY RISKY! Because, if you went 'all in' on YouTube or Social, you're putting yourself in the same situation as those who were all in on Google SEO traffic and just got slapped. This video offers bloggers some much needed perspective about blogging in 2024. Whether you're a total beginner blogger. Or whether you've been blogging for a decade or more like my wife and I have... This video will teach you the 5 ways we are using our blogs in 2024 after the Google algorithm updates to grow our businesses online without needing to build backlinks or mass publish AI content to a blog. Remember... Your blog is a great way to build your BRAND. Look beyond the ups and downs of traffic and you'll see a bright future for your online business and your blog! This video shares the types of blog posts that make money online - www.youtube.com/watch?v=CWDFy-qAXBk&list=PL0sOKzn__yK2yKtTKx0SS78Q9GLpnZ0l-&index=4&t=0s

If you have wanted to start affiliate marketing as a beginner but you feel like affiliate marketing is too complicated, this video will reveal the simple process to making money online as an affiliate marketer using affiliate marketing funnels. These funnels consist of 4 separate components. Your traffic, your landing page, your offer, and your email marketing follow-up. let's start with traffic… Generally, you need to decide whether you are going to invest your time and energy to drive organic traffic or whether you're going to use paid traffic strategies like advertising. If you want to do organic traffic for affiliate marketing, watch the videos in this playlist here where I teach you how to drive traffic for free as an affiliate: www.youtube.com/watch?v=1WFqp53RazY&list=PL0sOKzn__yK2g4VZBBB2ZwvEGWtWnMrGV&index=1&t=0s if you like writing you should definitely look into blogging as a main traffic source and you can find my free how-to blog training series on YouTube here: www.youtube.com/watch?v=GRPBDCoTaGM&list=PL0sOKzn__yK2yKtTKx0SS78Q9GLpnZ0l-&index=1&t=0s If you want to use advertising to drive traffic as an affiliate then I recommend starting with my five dollars Facebook ads strategy here www.youtube.com/watch?v=g9JfWuZJ5-M&list=PL0sOKzn__yK1ccvStA4p0jiZv4aUbqCQb&index=1&t=0s for the best training on email marketing for affiliates, go here www.youtube.com/watch?v=NNGc3RPdPUs&list=PL0sOKzn__yK0VnVMgrmpZKAqAAAp0ynBm&index=1&t=0s If you need help setting up your autoresponder ( I recommend Aweber - www.milesbeckler.com/aweber ) watch this video: www.youtube.com/watch?v=bcMs67rbJa8&t=0s finally, if you just want to make money with affiliate marketing, watch these videos here: www.youtube.com/watch?v=pTjlkWSWLl4&list=PL0sOKzn__yK1N9QS91pLZA-OCIc8d56xZ&index=1&t=0s Whether you choose to dig through the free YouTube videos and self-educate on how to make money online as an affiliate, or whether you choose to get a course that can shortcut your path to success as an affiliate… The one main key is resourcefulness. Making money online as an affiliate is not a get-rich-quick scheme. It takes time, determination, patience, and overcoming challenges and ultimately you must persevere longer than your competitors. With that said, creating lifestyle income as an affiliate is the best option I've found for creating true lifestyle freedom in 2024. If you have any questions about the process or my videos, please leave me a comment as I'm happy to answer comments as I have time. Cheers! Miles "The Helpful Affiliate" Beckler
