So I'm trying to bring my affiliate blog back from the dead in order to bring in some income to support living expenses.
My blog used to get around 7,000 visitors a month and between $500 and $1000 a month in commissions. All traffic came from Google. A year ago it was penalized and traffic dropped to about 2,500 visitors a month. I submitted a reconsideration request a couple months ago and they decided to penalize it even further. Now, it only gets around 1,000 visitors a month.
I haven't put any content on it since the first penalty (a year ago) so the only thing I can think of is to start putting consistent content on it. I am really hesitant to do any link building since it has already been penalized.
Is there anything else I could do to help bring my traffic levels back to it's old levels? 7,000 visitors a month really isn't a lot, so it's not like I'm trying to get to 100k a month or anything like that. Just enough to generate around $500-1k a month so I can focus on bigger things without getting a job (already doing an unpaid internship).
The URL to my site is buydiamondrings.org if you want to see the site/niche/whatever.
Thanks a lot for any help!
