📈 What would 80K website visits/month mean for your business? (where are you at now?)
I believe in "do crazy shit first, then sell the service/product to others"
So that's what we're doing.
This is our MoM traffic development of the last 5 months
💡 All done with one copywriter and me 🙌🏼
Our 2023 goals are:
🚀 15 Mio. organic search impressions
🚀 80K organic visits/month
🚀 500K total visits
What 80K mean for our business:
💰 11.600€ in mrr = 139.200€ in arr
💰 35.000€ in monthly affiliate income
💰 +5.000€ in monthly sponsored posts
❌ No ads income, we prioritize user experience
📣 Working on a proper case study overview on our website - stay tuned!
Trending on Indie Hackers
With the current 2k monthly traffic, we are at $6k MRR for conversios.io but after 80k traffic, I believe we will be at $150k MRR. Damn!
Wow thats a great conversion! 🤑
What channel/activity drives most of your traffic?
For us it's 80%+ organic and 17%+ direct, rest social.
I see you have several packages for customers, which one is the best seller?
Let's all dream (and work) towards a 💸 150K mrr 🥹
Glad you asked. For us 27% amounts to organic, 30+% contributes to direct and 20% of that comes from PPC. The remaining is from social media and partnerships!
Let's just hope to reach that level by working hard! Cheers!
Also, any suggestions for us?
I ran you website through AHREFs quickly, you already seem to rank for over 172 keywords which isn't bad, considering how new your website seems to be.
Create new content around these keywords & you'll see a traffic increase:
Hope it's helpful! 🙏🏻
Thank you so much, Florentina. Glad for the help!
Hi, I'm trying to learn the ropes of blogging, and I'm a bit confused about how you have MRR without ads in addition to affiliate and sponsored posts. Would you mind explaining?
And when it comes to sponsored posts do the companies reach out to you first and how long (how many posts/ how much traffic) did it take until you started getting such offers?
What was your approach to link building?
Uhh i feel flattered that you assume we only were able to achieve this kind of growth with link building :D
We actually haven't started yet, we plan to start link building in April.
What's your traffic goal for this year and in what niche?
Wow. Well, if you're ranking for that many keywords with no link building then... is there zero competition or am I reading the report wrong? :)
The competition is huge actually - we are in the wedding & relationship advice niche - so basically every tabloid is writing on these topics. I have 8+ years of SEO experience so this is all with SEO content. We publish min. 10 new articles monthly which is causing the exponential growth - Link building will actually sky rocket it even more and I'm sooooo excited for it 🤩
Find me on linkedin if you want to see more content growth tips, I'll start publishing about our learnings and processes soon. :)
Nice growth, Kudos.
Thank you! Couldn't do it without my copywriter 🙏 I wish I had that skill and wouldn't start vomiting after 500 words 🤣
The team is always the key to success!
How do you drive this traffic? Is through backlinks? Using content discover sites or increased content velocity?
The decimals are confusing me. Do you mean 11.6 Euro or 11600 Euro?
Why is 11.600€ confusing? In what case do 3 numbers after a decimal make sense?
By using € I assumed it was clear that I am from Europe (also mentioned it in my profile), where thousands are written with a point and decimals with a comma. So 11,60€ for let's say a nice cocktail at a bar but 11.600€ for a car.
Not everybody lives in the USA my dear friend 😆
Thanks for detail. So you write 11 Euro and 50 cent as 11,50 € not 11.50 €?
Yes exactly :)
Around less than 500!
Keep grinddiingg!
Let me know if you want some tips, always happy to share what worked for us :)
Current status is here https://www.magic.software/share/ed61a1ea-7673-4f43-ad68-c4bd505a4730 -- where do you look for people to partner with for affiliate sales?
Hello there, unfortunately I don't see proper data, most of them show "NaN" :/
What website does the data relate to?
Since we're in the wedding industry and most of our traffic is about what to gift we only considered amazon so far. Or what exactly do you mean by "people"?
What’s the site? Would love to see what’s working for you.
80k visits/month would be huge for us as we have ~600 views now. But we do get a lot more directly from the app stores since we have a mobile app.
But if numbers stay consistent, that’s roughly $26.6k more in revenue a month! 😳
It's mylocalwedding.app - german marketplace for wedding vendors but we branched out to write more about relationships for our brides/grooms.
That had a huge impact
ngl, a $26.6K 💸 mrr increase makes my heart beat faster 🤑
What channel/activity drives most of the 600 visitors?
For us it's 80%+ organic and 17%+ direct, rest social.
Nice! I really hope you reach and exceed your goals for 2023 🚀
For us, looks like it's roughly 60% direct, 24% organic search, and 11% organic social. Which actually confuses me because not sure why direct is so high! Only thing I can think of is link in bio clicks from Tiktok, but maybe that would be logged in organic social. Gonna have to look into it!
Interesting! Do you mean on your website or the app? Usually it should definitely be calculated under social traffic since TikTok is categorized as a social media platform
I quickly ran a check through your website and you seem to have great potential for bigger keywords like
Maybe you can create some content around it, should def. drive more organic traffic! :)
That's why I'm confused - I was looking at the numbers for the site. There is almost no reason for someone to directly type the site or anything like that. Very weird!
Thank you for the help! I will definitely look into those keywords. We are creating content on Tiktok, but we do plan to switch up our Tiktok content + make some blog posts to hopefully help SEO
Pro tip: If your tiktok content aligns with your blog content embed them there, it will help ranking if you have video content vs. your competition maybe not.
Wish you the best!
I was thinking of doing that but didn't know it would help with ranking as well! Will be sure to do that 👍
