Most people fail at building a successful online business.
Why?
Because they focus on the wrong stuff.
Here’s an easy framework to stay on track:
I hear the drums echoing tonight
But she hears only whispers of some quiet conversation
She's coming in, 12:30 flight
The moonlit wings reflect the stars that guide me towards salvation

Topic clusters are the BEST way to skyrocket your SEO in 2022 🚀
Here's why everyone seems to be talking about them...
Alrighty, first things first:
✔️ Topic clusters are not a magic fix for SEO.
✔️ They don't guarantee rankings (or anything)

My philosophy for building content sites:
Niche sites are places to experiment + generate additional income. I don't want to spend all my time building, managing or putting all my eggs in one basket.
I want to front load content, get it ranked, revisit + improve.
