The AI Stack I’m Using to Build a £5K/Month Affiliate Blog for Freelancers
Hey IH 👋
I’m Ben building FreelanceWithAI.co.uk, a content-driven affiliate blog focused on helping freelancers use AI tools to save time and grow their income.
🎯 My Goal:
Build a lean site that generates £5K/month in affiliate income by reviewing and promoting the best AI tools for solopreneurs.
I’m two weeks in and testing a streamlined tech stack that powers everything from content creation to lead gen — all without hiring help.
🧠 My AI Stack So Far:
-
KoalaWriter – For SEO-optimized blog content using GPT-4 + SERP
-
Originality.AI – To scan for plagiarism & AI detection before publishing
-
MailerLite – For building my email list with landing pages + automations
-
Systeme.io – Handles funnels, lead magnets, and digital product setup
-
Simplified – For social content design, AI writing, and video posts
🧪 Results (Week 2):
6 blog posts live
100+ visitors from SEO + social
10–20 affiliate link clicks/day
Email list starting to grow
💡 Why This Approach?
I wanted to test how far I could go without code, ads, or hiring just content, SEO, and AI tools.
I’m sharing updates weekly and documenting the journey as I go.
Curious to hear from others:
What’s in your AI stack right now?
Are you using any of these tools differently?
Anyone else going hard on affiliate SEO or AI-powered content?
Would love your thoughts 👇
Interesting stack. I took a different approach — built a 5-AI consensus engine that validates content before publishing instead of using AI just for generation. Published 161 posts with an average Rank Math score of 84. The quality layer is what most AI content stacks are missing. How are you handling accuracy/hallucination risk in your content?"
