I must say I was not looking forward to write this income \/ progress report.<\/p>\n

As you know I do not use any Private Blog Network <\/a>\u00a0(PBN)\u00a0for any of my sites. I use the 8 steps method<\/a> to focus on\u00a0finding low competition keywords and\u00a0creating content that are valuable to the readers. This means the progress is extremely slow in comparison to sites that use PBN.<\/p>\n

To sum it up, in terms of productivity, it was a really great month. In terms of revenue, it was not what I was hoping for. (That’s it, you can stop reading and come back next month, lol).<\/p>\n

I am still optimistic because based on the historical data, whatever I implement today will likely to show its effects in about 3 months. This means what we implemented in February should take full effects in May.<\/p>\n

Activities in February 2016<\/h2>\n

We had a very busy and productive February.<\/p>\n

We published 40 articles in total and optimized them all including internal linking. This was done by multiple team members so the articles still need to be audited using software to ensure that best SEO practice is in place (we are all human, people make mistakes).<\/p>\n

We welcomed a new team member in February, who would be in charge of backlink building. We established a Standard Operating Procedure (SOP) for how to use Buzzstream<\/a> for outreach as well as blog commenting.<\/p>\n

The main tasks we did are as follow<\/p>\n
