I managed it next to my full-time job.<\/p>\n\n<p>It\u2019s important to stress that I could only spend a few hours a week on my website, but it did not adversely impact my website growth.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n<p>Instead, applying the right SEO strategies helped me create my SEO content success story, which I\u2019ll eagerly share with you below.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n<p>Most of my blog posts rank on the 2nd and 3rd Google search result pages.<\/p>\n\n<p>However, I want to share how one particular page reached the 7th position on Google 2 months after publication.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n<p>A while back, I discovered a low-competition keyword: <em>SEO on Medium<\/em>.<\/p>\n\n<p>As a top writer on Medium, I\u2019ve already shared how content creators can <a href=\"https:\/\/selfmademillennials.com\/how-to-make-money-writing-on-medium-website\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">make money writing on Medium<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n<p>As a next step, I decided to write about how search engine optimization works on Medium.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n<p>According to Ahrefs, the \u201c<em>SEO on Medium<\/em>\u201d keyword had the following stats as of December 2021:<\/p>\n\n<ul>\n<li>Keyword Difficulty: 18\u00a0<\/li>\n<li>Search Volume: 150<\/li>\n<li>Traffic Potential 110&lt;<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n<p>I conducted competitor and keyword research before content writing. Here is the data I collected.<\/p>\n\n<p>The top-performing blog posts had the following content length:<\/p>\n\n<ul>\n<li>1st \u2014 roughly 3,148 words<\/li>\n<li>2nd \u2014 roughly 1,983 words<\/li>\n<li>3rd \u2014 roughly 1,557 words\u00a0<\/li>\n<li>4th \u2014 roughly 1,231 words\u00a0<\/li>\n<li>5th \u2014 roughly 890 words<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n<p>Back then, I knew my website was quite fresh, without a high Domain Rating and backlinks. Therefore, I had to create a long and optimized article to outperform competitors.<\/p>\n\n<p>Furthermore, I did extensive keyword research, collecting keywords through Ahrefs.<\/p>\n\n<p>I\u2019ve checked what keywords the top-performing websites ranked for. As a result, I collected 35 semantically related keywords that I later used for content writing.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n<p>Here is my blog post wireframe with the keyword research results:\u00a0<\/p>\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"790\" height=\"456\" class=\"wp-image-1924 lazyload\" data-src=\"https:\/\/selfmademillennials.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/seo-case-study.gif\" alt=\"seo case study\" src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAAAAACH5BAEKAAEALAAAAAABAAEAAAICTAEAOw==\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 790px; --smush-placeholder-aspect-ratio: 790\/456;\" \/><noscript><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"790\" height=\"456\" class=\"wp-image-1924\" src=\"https:\/\/selfmademillennials.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/seo-case-study.gif\" alt=\"seo case study\" \/><\/noscript><\/figure>\n\n<p>Eventually, I published my blog post on January 14th, 2022, and it had roughly 3,077 words.<\/p>\n\n<p><strong>My blog post reached the Google front page in 2 months without link building.\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n\n<p>I took this screenshot on March 16th, 2022.

However, every website owner has to deal with it to improve the website\u2019s DR (domain rank) and maintain high positions in the search.<\/p>\n\n<p>Even if you are new to SEO, you can achieve similar results for your website by following my proven SEO writing strategies shared in this <a href=\"https:\/\/victoriakurichenko.gumroad.com\/l\/how-to-write-blog-posts-that-hit-google-front-page\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">ebook<\/a>.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n<p>Remember, if something does not work the way you want, it might not be your fault.<\/p>\n\n<p>According to the Ahrefs study, only 5.7% of pages rank in the top 10 search results within 1 year for at least 1 keyword.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n<p>Therefore, be patient and keep working on your marketing success story.<\/p>\n\n<h2>FAQ<\/h2>\n\n<h3 id=\"is-seo-profitable\">Is SEO Still Profitable?<\/h3>\n\n<p>Yes, but only in the long term.<\/p>\n\n<p>You should <em>not<\/em> expect your website to make money through SEO if you launched it a month ago.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n<p>Many SEO professionals say you should consistently create optimized content, do link building, and care about your website\u2019s health before seeing the first results. However, it\u2019s not guaranteed.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n<p>If you manage your website next to your full-time job, like me, it might take <em>years<\/em> before it starts attracting visitors from organic search.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n<p>However, you should not wait that long. Consider your website as a tool that you can effectively use to make money online, even if it does not have many views.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n<p>For instance, you can use your website as a portfolio to present your skills to potential employers. Many candidates can only tell about their former experiences but have no tangible assets to prove it. Therefore, even a relatively small website can be your competitive advantage.<\/p>\n\n<p>Furthermore, you can make money through affiliate programs, paid brand mentions, and selling your products or services.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/bettermarketing.pub\/how-i-made-3-000-from-one-medium-article-as-an-affiliate-c8dfa2592b22\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">I once made over $3,000<\/a> from a single Medium article as an affiliate. This occasion showed that SEO is a powerful strategy that can help you make money while you sleep. However, a lot has to be done behind the scenes.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n<p>I also use SEO to promote my <a href=\"https:\/\/victoriakurichenko.gumroad.com\/l\/how-to-write-blog-posts-that-hit-google-front-page\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">ebook<\/a>, which made its first sale right after I released a selling page on Gumroad.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n<p>These are just a few SEO success stories I\u2019ve managed to create with the help of my website.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n<p>If you are into SEO, I have an in-depth guide with beginner and advanced strategies on how you can <a href=\"https:\/\/selfmademillennials.com\/how-to-make-money-from-seo\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">make money through SEO<\/a>. Have a look and let me know if it is helpful.<\/p>\n\n<h3 id=\"future-of-seo\">Does SEO have a future?<\/h3>\n\n<p>Those who say \u201cSEO is dead\u201d don\u2019t know how to effectively leverage it.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n<p>It\u2019s exclusively my opinion, which is based on years of marketing experience and talks with different business representatives.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n<p>People are reluctant to invest in something that might bring decent results in the future. They are more open to investing in ads that give quick results.<\/p>\n\n<p>Don\u2019t get me wrong now. I have nothing against paid ads. It can be effective in many circumstances. However, it\u2019s not sustainable. Once you turn ads off, your website traffic and sales are <em>gone<\/em>. That\u2019s where SEO is different.
