    EXECUTION 
    I think that according to what you have written, I am basically doing "the right thing." I am constantly trying things out and seeing how well they work. E.g. new lead gen ideas, putting content on Medium, contacting people in my industry, putting products on my site, trying new content ideas...

    Thanks for the input. I originally tired to niche down into school level educational materials, but it's a really dubious market from what I could tell. For one, there is huge government funding which goes exclusively to an organisation called the National Centre for Computing Education, who...

    Hi MJ, I appreciate your candour. I am a little confused though. It was a while ago that I read your book, but I seem to remember that you yourself leveraged existing domain knowledge about limousines when you started your business. That same goes for they guy in "build to sell" - he took his...

    What next?

    EXECUTION 
    I'm in a bit of a "creative void" regarding my business at the moment, and am reflecting on how I got here and what to do next. About two years ago I made the decision to seriously attempt to create a successful business which could eventually support me with passive income. Prior to that, I...

    Implications of Google Trends for my Website/Business

    MARKETING 
    I did a comparison of "Python course" and "Python Video Course" on Google trends. Firstly I was surprised by how low the numbers for "Python course" were, peaking around 100 searches a week, if I'm reading that correctly. Secondly, there were no searches for "Python Video Course". That...

    Is my blog ready to monetize?

    SIDE HUSTLE 
    One exam board has moved to online assessment for programming (Edexcel). The others use paper based for everything. I would say most of the syllabuses are somewhat outdated and in need of modernising. This could be part of my USP somehow - targeting learners who want the best possible...

    Is my blog ready to monetize?

    SIDE HUSTLE 
    Thanks for your reply. One thing that's confusing me is that I have set a favicon on my site, and it shows up in my browser, but when I add my site to my mobile home screen, no favicon. I contacted my wordpress theme company and they sent images of the favicon showing on both desktop and mobile...

    SIDE HUSTLE 
    I really hope so. I've put a LOT of work into my blog and much as I enjoy sharing content, I need it to pay its way.

    Total noob question - what are those figures? Daily visits needed to qualify for the program?

    Is my blog ready to monetize?

    SIDE HUSTLE 
    Do you have any suggestion for getting started with ads? I'm thinking some full-width banner ads just beneath the nav bar with relevant products and services, but I'm completely new to this so wouldn't know where to begin.

    SIDE HUSTLE 
    Thanks for the feedback and suggestions. My list is growing very slowly - just 268 on it to date. I recently added a free email course as a lead magnet and that has definitely helped, and I'm looking into A/B testing to try and increase uptake.

    Is my blog ready to monetize?

    SIDE HUSTLE 
    I've been blogging about learning programming and Computer Science for about 18 months now and have clocked up about 110 posts. My daily traffic is around 200 users from organic search. My question is - is it worth trying to monetize my blog at this stage? If so, what would be a great place...

    Lead Gen for Python Coding Website

    MARKETING 
    My conversion rate is pants. I have a popup to subscribe to my blog, a widget with an offer to get the code for an application that will help people learn coding, and at the end of each blog post there is an offer to get the code for a fun game that also has educational value. I thought these...
