🪩 In My DGAF Era

In partnership with

A while back, I told you one of the things that I’ve been doing with my 19 sites that Google slammed with manual penalties is going crazy with content + Pinterest.

Doesn’t matter how off topic it is, cause if I can get Pinterest or FB traffic then I can monetize it.

More on that in a moment.

But first, I’ve got one sponsor today. So, check ‘em out for a chance at some monies!

Full DGAF Mode Engaged

So, that was just my deinexed sites that I was doing that with.

My HCU-hit sites, those are a different story.

I was just using social to send them traffic and keeping everything else running as normal.

Then, a couple of days ago, I was like WTF AM I DOING?

Since nothing matters any more, why not just move all that HCU smacked content to sites that are on Mediavine - especially the stuff that is human written (cause we know they be petty bitches when it comes to AI content and images).

Actually let me clarify that - I’m moving content from one HCU site to another HCU site.

So it looks something like this - camping site got hit by HCU and was only ever monetized with affiliate links cause traffic wasn’t high enough for Mediavine (pre-MV Journey).

Running site was also smacked by HCU and is running (lol) ads but doesn’t have enough traffic to level up to Raptive.

Both sites getting decent social traffic. Niche sites are never coming back, so why not combine the sites and move the camping content over to the running site?

Do this with a few high quality HCU sites, all content moving to the running site (with a 301) and boom, suddenly there’s enough traffic (at least I think there will be) to qualify for Raptive.

Doesn’t matter if the content is all over the place. Traffic coming from social and not SEO.

So far, it seems like my rich pins are still “rich pins” for the 301’d sites, so I don’t expect a traffic decrease from Pinterest - but that is a possibility.

Downside? Takes time to move all the content + now my running site is starting to look like a shitty PBN that covers all the things.

But hey, I’m already up $20/day with what I’ve managed to move and 301.

Wish I’d gone full DGAF mode sooner!

Not advising this as a long-term play for anyone. And I still am creating ecomm and “ecomm” sites that are doing their own thing.

Just trying to give you some ideas in case you have multiple HCU-hit sites that you could combine into one for a good amount of social traffic.

Coming up…

Upcoming topics: one of the many things I’m working on: ecommerce, what’s working with websites, running an agency, AI music, Amazon KDP books, and more.

If you have a topic you want covered just reply and let me know.

Stay awesome,
