605: Blogging in a Post-HCU World: The Savvy 7-Figure Online Business

Listen Later

Google's Helpful Content Update (HCU) hit a lot of online businesses hard with its new update.

Even well-established and authoritative websites experienced a significant drop in their rankings.

That's why I went behind the scenes with Kelan Kline from The Savvy Couple, whose online blogging side hustle did well even after the update.

Kelan built his online business up from making $50 in the first year to now seeing around 500k pageviews a month. That led to his online business making seven figures last year.

Tune in to Episode 605 of the Side Hustle Show to learn:

  • Strategies for creating content that resonates with Google's algorithm changes
  • Ways to diversify traffic sources beyond just Google search
  • Tools/tech for content creation, email marketing, monetization, and more.
