    Free content hosted on YouTube and embedded in a forum thread. It's not like I'm linking to content that's a part of a sales funnel or on my website. It's literally a free course that lasts over an hour teaching people everything they need to do to get to the top of the map pack. Nothing sold...

    How to dominate the local map pack

    MARKETING 
    I'm sorry, but I don't see what I'm selling or advertising other than "hey here's free resources and knowledge to grow your business". So unless you oppose helping people (for free) then I don't see what the problem is?

    New e-commerce business & MLM question

    IDEA 
    Hi, first of all, best of luck to you and your new business! One option is to use a reward system for existing customers. For example, if they get a friend to join your newsletter then they both get a discount, freebie etc. It works really well and you can actually scale the rewards based on...

    $30m business and I'm just a bitch

    HOT! INTRO 
    Don't view your job as a job. It's a means to finance your own company and provides resources for you to invest. You're also in a key position to put into place all the things that are clearly missing with the company's culture

    Ensuring and communicating results with a client!

    SIDE HUSTLE WEB DESIGN 
    Every business and every industry is different. Some businesses sell stuff people want. Some businesses sell something nobody wants. Regardless of confidence or a belief in a particular business, you can't ethically promise you'll get them set results.

    Ensuring and communicating results with a client!

    SIDE HUSTLE WEB DESIGN 
    You can be ultra-confident and have a long history of results, testimonials, etc that you can show to a potential client. Every agency does this and this is why so many of them use case studies. From an ethical standpoint, you can't promise anything other than the delivery of the agreed work...

    Ensuring and communicating results with a client!

    SIDE HUSTLE WEB DESIGN 
    You can't assure anything. Your job isn't to validate a business, but instead you make it easier to get sales. One way around this is to say: "we did x, y and z for a similar client and we got them this result. We can't promise you similar success, but what I can say is that if there's a...

    How do I increase the income on a gaming blog I own?

    Hey I had a movie website that used to get around 180k visitors per day. Do an SEO audit, get more backlinks and promote the hell out of the website. Good sources of traffic are social media groups, forums and Reddit. Start pumping out video content and within that content actively promote...

    Content writing and digital marketing. A good combo?

    MARKETING 
    I would stay away from content marketing unless it's marketing content. The reason is that a number of AI companies are pumping out tools to write and create content that is as good (if not better) as most journalists and content writers.

    There's a number of things that influence rankings on YT including those that you highlighted. I noticed that you're not using tags, keywords aren't in the description and you haven't promoted it on social media. YT will improve your rankings based on how many links and embeds your videos...
