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:
