I grew a site to 100k+ organics a month. AMA!

This is the graph of a site I grew to 100k organics a month recently.

-> Good content
-> Good links
-> Aged domain
-> Great keyword research

That’s all. If you get the foundation right, everything will fall into place :)

PS: More than willing to answer questions here - I'm not an expert though.

This is more of an experiment that went right. I applied the same strategy to two more sites and was able to get to 10k organics a month within 2 months.

The main thing that contributed to this growth was a good aged domain. This is the key.

Other than this, a LOT of content, off-page SEO does the work ;)

    Hey Mukul,

    Congrats 👏 on this milestone. Wanted to ask you, how do you select the aged domain? Any criteria?
    You also mentioned good links, could you please elaborate on the how do you get them part?

      Thanks!

      I select domains which

      1. Used to get traffic before they were dropped/stopped working on
      2. Have good amount of contextual links - the more the better
      3. Have majority of their 'best' links built on the homepage
      4. Weren't used as PBNs, 301s before
      5. Are relevant to my niche - the more relevant they are, the better.
      6. Had some articles related to my niche which I can restore (optional - not necessary but helps)
      7. Have searches for it's brand term

      If you're able to get your hands on this type of domain, you're golden.

      Hope this helps!

      Edit: I get them from marketplaces or auctions like GoDaddy Auctions. You can check out expireddomains. net or spamzilla to search for domains in auction and bid for them or go to marketplaces that sell expired domains to get a vetted domain.

        Cool, Thanks a lot for the answer

        What are the red flags you check before buying a domain?

          Spammy links, bad archive history and if it was used as a PBN or a 301 before :)
