Segment 1: What I've Been Into Recently

Launched my first amazon affiliate site. It’s a brand new domain that I think last podcast I was working on launching. A quick overview

It’s a wordpress website on a geodomain. One of the first ones I hand-registered as a DI (but realized pretty quickly it wasn’t a great domain for reselling it)

Currently has 10 informational articles which took me ~6 hours each to write myself, including inserting all the ads.

The articles are based on the keyword golden ration popularized by Doug Cunnington. You can watch his youtube here for more information: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wXuI4H6flxc.

This is a process I think will take at least a year to see if it’s going to work, I’ll keep everyone updated.

Working on a website for the local youth league to support their 5k

I lost a domain name!

Segment 3: sell me your domains

Quite frankly, I’m disgusted at the pricing on auction sites, domain names seem overpriced. I’m going to start pursuing more private purchases. If you have a domain you’d like to sell, reach out to me.
