The Global Emergence of Cryptocurrencies and Blockchain Technology
This was very very informative! Thank you!
Got accepted 6 days ago. Dating and relationship niche here
Great video Casey, thanks for sharing! Would love to know which products and video formats are working best for you, and if you have any tips on what to cover in the videos beyond pros and cons? I know you touched on this a little in one of the earlier videos but would love to get an update now you have so many more vids.
I’ll definitely touch on this more in some upcoming videos I’ll be creating on tips and tricks that I’ve used or seen others do well (great suggestion), but I tend to focus on traditional wide format videos designed for desktop (you can actually see your purchase breakdown by device in the last column of your Amazon report). I then focus on a great thumbnail. I love graphic design but tend to stick with high quality and clearly illustrative photos (minimal graphic overlays/text as it’s somewhat overdone and can feel less authentic imo). For video content, I do change my talking points based on a quick scan of competing videos (if most videos are short in length and generally covering products from a high level, I’ll create them with a very specific question or feature in mind). If there are no competitors I might do a more broad review. Generally these videos are never less than 1:30 and never longer than 2:45. This isn’t a rule, just what seems to work for my largely single take videos. I’m experimenting with some more edited/produced videos but they almost never seem worth the time. My best videos are simple, showcase use of product, and explain how I personally use it. But for more complicated content I will do longer videos to help future proof them against competition. How many videos are you at?
@@CaseyBotticello this is really helpful, thank you so much for the detailed reply. I have only done my first 3 videos (but got approved yay) - I was inspired after watching your video reports to give it a proper go. I’m going to dedicate a couple of days to batch producing this week. I hadn’t thought to research the other existing videos, thank you for the tip (seems obvious now you mention it ha). Good to know about the thumbnails too, I also didn’t put much thought into the importance of those. I make cooking videos and was thinking about trying a volume strategy/uploading a bunch of B roll clips from my existing content where appliances or utensils feature. I figure seeing as we can upload multiple videos for each product why not upload a lot (?). I was curious to know the lifespan of the videos / whether they get buried by newer videos or if Amazon displays the highest converting videos first. Now you are purchasing products to review, are you specifically looking for products with low video competition?
@@glowdiaries___ As for uploading multiple videos of the same tagged product, I generally try to avoid this, unless the videos are addressing different topics entirely. And just maker sure you're not reusing footage. Amazon may at some point view this as spam. Product listing lifespan varies. If there are no competing videos it may perform similarly over time. With more competitive video carousels, Amazon seems to use an algorithm to test showing new videos as they are added but tend to feature the top performers long term. Now that I'm buying products, low competition is definitely a factor, but this would be more of a short term strategy. I'm looking for products that are either expensive enough or hard enough for others to review, that I have some specific knowledge of. Or at least that's the plan!
my brother You are probably the best person I have ever seen on RUclips talking about blogging I hope to create a complete course specifically for beginners
Thanks! I offer most of my tips and tricks for free on my website BloggingGuide.com. No course planned-I just like helping bloggers when I can.
@@CaseyBotticello Thank you, brother, for everything you do شكرا
Won't Google rank you lower with AI-generated content?
In my experience, no. Google is looking at a number of factors (site authority, backlinks, engagement, etc.). If your content is good in the eyes of readers you’ll do fine ranking.
Hi Casey! Can I get into Mediavine with 800-1000 word articles if I complete all other requirements? Btw, how long are your articles?
Yes, you definitely can! I have some blogs that are comprised of mostly ~1000 word articles and are on MV.
@CaseyBotticello Ok! Thanks a lot, Casey!
Hi Casey! What do they mean by long-form content? How long does the blog post need to be? Above 1000 words or ?? Please let me know if you have any ideas regarding it.
Generally posts should be at least 600 words; typically closer to 800-1000+.
@CaseyBotticello Oh, Thanks a lot. So, it means I can get into Mediavine with 800-1000 word articles, right?
@@PuzzleGamesyt Yes, you definitely can!
Awesome video as always, you always tackle things in a different way, thank you Casey ♥ Waiting for July earning report
Thanks! I appreciate the feedback!
I got accepted today but im seeing mostly ads are about there promotion of grow, what you say about this
This is common for the first few weeks as it takes time for ad inventory to populate on your site.
My 90% traffic from Germany, how much rpm it can give, I was using Ezoic before and leave them after seeing a drop from $20 EPMV to 8-10 in a month
Hi Casey!! Great video. I have a question and I'd like to hear your opinion. I was accepted into the program 3 days ago after a 60-day review, but I'm not seeing any Google ads. Also, in the past 3 days, my earnings have not exceeded 50 cents, even though I have 1500 or more visitors to my site per day. Is this normal? Thank you.❤
It is too early to tell whether your earnings (RPM) are “good” or not…this ramp up period occurs over 3-4 weeks typically. It’s also during this period that you will begin to see less grow ads and more traditional third party ads.
I'm sri lanka mediavine create new tipalti account?withdraw
I would reach out to MV if you are having payment issues.
Man admanager keeps rejecting inspite of hand wrotten high quality content...it says low value content
Grow/Journey do not require Google ad manager approval-you only apply through Grow.
Is it still worth starting a niche site portfolio from scratch in the 2nd half of 2024?
It depends on your goals and risk tolerance. Niche sites in general are risky right now (if they rely upon organic search traffic). But if you plan to drive traffic another way (social media marketing, email, etc.) it is definitely less risky. I’m still launching new sites just this month so I think the payout potential is worth it personally.
I appreciate you sharing. Well done on the sheer volume of videos made! Interested to see how July does for you
Thanks! It’s been really tiring but I’m still adding new videos at a fast pace so it will be interesting to see! And hopefully Prime Day is a bit of a boost!
I was accepted but I haven't passed yet. Do they pay more than Ezoic? My EPMV at Ezoic is currently 11 on average. Is it possible to choose the number of ads with Journey?
No you can’t adjust the ad density with Journey. Ezoic ads are much more obtrusive so I think switching over and testing MV is definitely worth it!
I was accepted but I haven't passed yet. Do they pay more than Ezoic? My EPMV at Ezoic is currently 11 on average.
Would definitely give Journey a try!
how would you say RPMs compare to Ezoic?
Significantly higher than Ezoic (and the ads that do show are far less obtrusive).
does journey rpms equal the main mediavine ? or wha'ts the best one,
It’s hard to say as my Journey site is in a different niche than my regular MV site. But generally speaking, regular MV will be higher, simply because you can customize the ad modules and are eligible for brand specific deals.if you have bought traffic for regular MV, obviously apply to this program.
@@CaseyBotticello if you reached 50k on journey they'll migrate you to the main one or you need to apply again ?
Hi Casey, I have got invitation from Journey today. The site is part of 4 sites in premium contract with Ezoic. How to move it, please suggest.
do i need to be accepted into google adsense before getting accepted into mediavine journey?
No, you don’t! All you need is to have had Grow plugin running on your site for at least 30 days.
@@CaseyBotticello thanks for answering, just got accepted into journey while not being accepted to adsense yet.
wow the biggest takeaway for me were the problematic keywords. I always felt like my RPMs were low compared to a lot of other people even though my niche is pretty decent. I tend to use such words to put emphasis on a point such as "Getting enough sleep is EXTREMEly important. Studies have found that lack of sleep can K*LL your S*X drive." or "Social media and P*RN ADDICTION can play a role in causing depressive episodes". Now I know where I messed up lol. One question... Does censoring these words help like I just did in this comment?
It can help but generally these advertisers enter all sorts of kw variations so it would be best to reword the content altogether. Sometimes this is simply not possible or it makes it too hard for reader to follow. But Id definitely make sure you aren’t using these words unnecessarily. And if an article contains a ton of them, check to see how much that article is bringing in. It may be best to remove it altogether if the rest of your content is otherwise “brand safe”
@@CaseyBotticello That makes sense. Guess I have some editing to do :) Thanks a lot Casey. The subtle insights in your videos are very unique. Even though I've been into blogging for a couple years and took some courses yet I always find myself learning something of great value from each of your videos.
Your videos are really inspiring.. I would be grateful if you can briefly explain how to recover from the google search console update (when traffic decreases..)
I wish there was a clear answer to this…if it’s a loss of organic Google search traffic, there are few if any solutions (based on sites hit by most recent updates). Chances are you’ll have to make major site improvements and wait for next core update. In this site’s case, I never recovered the Google traffic. I basically replaced it with organic search traffic from Bing (and to a lesser extent Yahoo and DDG). That’s why I recommend making sure your site is properly configured for Bing as well as Google (even if you don’t actively monitor it).
@@CaseyBotticello I just discovered that more than 70% of the blog's pages were deindexed after the update.. that's the main reason. I will follow your traffic strategy, thank you very much.
Thanks for sharing and all but these case studies are actually helpful unless you are willing to teach how to get the same results. You don’t even have to share you niche or sites. Just create a site just for teaching. Some video on how to select niche isn't enough. Until then, You're bragging or rubbingit in our faces. 😂
I have an entire free site dedicated to sharing the specific strategies and techniques I use for building and scaling sites: www.bloggingguide.com. I highlight many sample sites throughout these articles.
Instead of case study show us, how we can replicate bro
Agreed. Would love to learn the process. Especially how to create the content map.
@officialmantv5878 My website is filled with free and detailed tutorials (www.bloggingguide.com). There is enough content on here to get anyone started and then some.
@Faraz_khan0 I’ve gone through this specific process in my articles bloggingguide.com/how-to-create-a-topical-map-for-your-blog/ (and somewhat in podcast interviews), but I’ll keep this topic in mind for a future video 🙂
@@CaseyBotticello thank you so much Casey 🙏🏻
What's the update on your big AI site that made $15k?
The site I sold for six figures? Unfortunately I don’t have access to data or analytics anymore.

can you help how i can get good niches without competition using semrush , i want some details , min volume , difficulty keyword , do i need specific keyword or long tail , to start blogging , i really need answer , thanks alot
I’d start with the alphabet soup method and see if there are any topics that jump out at you. You can use Keywords Everwhere for cheaper search estimates:bloggingguide.com/the-alphabet-soup-method-of-keyword-research-for-bloggers/

How are you still able to bring traffic
This site relies currently on organic search traffic. I was beginning to experiment with a Facebook page before it sold but it only accounted for a small percentage of traffic.
@@CaseyBotticello Appreciate your response, please make future videos on niche and keyword research
So MediaVine accepts AI content correct?
They dont want full blown copy paste ai content. But if you rewrite content, add your own unique images, and add some personal flair, it is really just a tool used in the content creation process. The bigger issue is spammy content, that’s not fact checked or blatantly used someone else’s work, and has no original material. This is basically a scraped site. And MV will reject/remove these. Especially if you are stealing content (which unchecked AI does).
@CaseyBotticello I understand that but I've never stolen anyone else's work. GPT4 passes copyscape every single time
@@Financierpro1if it passes copyscape and isn’t a cooking site (where you’re risking ChatGPT stealing the formula but rewriting the wording to just avoid plagiarism) then yes this sounds like it wouldn’t be problematic 🙂
Hi, how many articles you had before getting approved by Mediavine? Thanks
About 500. But it was reaching the 25k traffic threshold that matters.
50 times multiple is crazy
Again, it was an earnout so immediate payment was more like 30x. But yeah, they also wanted the sm accounts, and drafted posts I hadn’t got to posting yet.
Wpuld love to know how to sell your site without a mediator or middle company like flipa
I use escrow.com. Minimal fees, good for many cases (especially smaller site sales).

Great video, thank you! Which social media (page) you were getting traffic from?
It was a Facebook page. I spent a very small amount on likes and also repurposed articles to share alongside content from other sites in niche.

Hiii ! I just got mine after 1 month of Grow, so excited!!! Thank you for your video, very helpful!
Thanks! And congrats!
how is your rpm? Did it increase the first 30 days?
Ezoic provides me with an average EPM (earnings per thousand impressions) of $8-9. I currently receive 13,000 monthly sessions, primarily from Bing, and my niche is shoes. Should I consider switching to journey by Mediavine? Is this a good idea? Please provide your recommendations.
hello, how long does it take for the adds to set up everywhere on your site please? I'm with them since 10 days now and a majority of my articles have no adss yet. Do I need to change anything in the settings maybe? thanks!
Are you seeing blank ad placeholders? It does take a while for ads to appear across all pages consistently…but 10 days is sort of long. What theme are you using?
how does it compare to Ezoic?
Well the RPM is decent and it has far less obtrusive ads so I’d say much better!
Hi @CaseyBotticello, I really need your response to know if I have a problem or not. I've been following you since your first video about the journey, and I submitted my website a month and 20 days ago, and I had 25,000 visits to my website. However, due to Google updates, the number of visitors has now dropped to 20,000, and my website has not been reviewed yet, even though it has been over a month. I also submitted a post on their forum and no one has responded. Is this normal or is there a problem that I am not aware of?
This is normal. Most sites take a few months to get in. 30 days is simply the minimum amount required.
@@CaseyBotticello Thank you CaseyBotticello and we are waiting for your next video and I hope you talk about some of the companies that give invitations ADX

@@user-pn2lg3ct2x Then yes, you could replicate this process using just Google AdSense, although your RPM would almost certainly be lower (eventually, you'll get enough traffic to qualify for MV).

Hi Casey! Love your channel, and this video in particular. It does leave me pondering though. I have a background in mental health services & have just began planning a mental health blog in a narrow sub-niche. However, from this video I am now uncertain - as I'm worried regarding legitimacy. Would you advise me to avoid this? The blog would be focusing on long-tail keywords which are definitely under-served (to say the least), but that's obviously irrelevant if Google aren't going to trust the site.
If you have credentials, academic citations, or are a practitioner with a business in this area then you can still show Google EEAT signals, and build out a robust series of profiles that will over time allow you to rank for more competitive keywords. There is always some risk when entering a YMYL niche, but if you have the experience and are passionate about the niche it’s still possible: bloggingguide.com/ymyl-content/
@@CaseyBotticello Thank you Casey! I've only just stumbled across BloggingGuide and I've already extrapolated some golden nuggets! I'll be becoming a paid subscriber at the end of the month.
What would be your best advice for someone new to blogging? Do you have any other videos where you breakdown your article creation process? I assume you take a draft from Koala and then polish and update it with your choice of photos, etc. before posting onto the site? I'm new to this, other than having a Bachelor's in Creative Writing. Would love to start doing this type of thing!
Just get started, would be my best advice. Waiting on the sidelines is really the only way to fail ! Even if your first site is not a success, the skills you learn will be essential to future success. As for Koala, I don’t have a video yet (although I will at some point here once I have more time), but this article may help:bloggingguide.com/koalawriter-review/ It does differ for each site and each type of article, but yes, generally I start with a draft (or several) from Koala and go through and edit the writing (heavily condensing overly verbose sections and changing awkward language usage). I completely re write the intros, transitions, conclusions , and title. I then create custom media elements to insert into the article (typically every 300 words).
Hey Casey, thanks for sharing. Quick question, when you were using AdSense for the site, was you using Adsense Auto Ads? Or manually placing them?
I tried both methods with AdSense but still had a fairly low RPM (were basically the same). I’ve had success with manual placement in the past but the site had more traffic than this one/longer session duration.
Saving up to book a call with you sir!
