I realised after yesterday’s email that I may not have explained this very clearly, so let me try again.
This is about consistency, not cleverness.
If you’ve ever built something that should have worked, but didn’t, you’ll know exactly what I mean.
I’ve been there more times than I’d like to admit.
What I’m exploring now is a much simpler idea: building small, tightly-focused micro-niche blogs that earn a little each month, and stacking them instead of chasing big wins.
I’m considering running a 30-day, hands-on beta where we’d build 3–5 of these sites together, focusing on:
niche selection
keyword-driven content
simple monetisation
This isn’t a pitch.
I’m genuinely trying to work out whether this would be useful to anyone else, or whether I’m off track.
If this wouldn’t interest you, a quick “no” reply would genuinely help.
And if it would be useful, just reply and tell me that.
They don’t get consistent traffic — which means they don’t get consistent income.
It’s usually not because they don’t have something to sell. They can promote affiliate products if needed.
It’s not because they can’t build things. Most marketers know how to:
build a website
set up PayPal or Stripe
write content or emails
use AI to speed things up
And yet… income is still random.
The real problem is consistency and stability.
I know this because I’ve lived it. For years.
I’ve wasted more potential income than I care to admit by chasing the wrong things and misunderstanding what actually matters.
Over the last while, I’ve been exploring a different approach — one focused on small, repeatable wins instead of big traffic spikes.
I’m considering running a small, hands-on 30-day beta to help a few marketers build 3–5 micro-niche websites that can realistically earn around $30 per month each.
Nothing flashy. Just boring, compounding assets that add up.
If that sounds useful to you, just reply YES and I’ll send details.
You won’t get away with that today, but the concept is still viable.
Build sites that provide good content on general subjects or trending keywords and link out to more tightly focussed pages of yours that have adsense ads on them.
It’s the volume of traffic that counts here.
You won’t need to buy traffic for these, a decent page on a trending keyword will get fast ranking and traffic.
But you’re not limited to adsense, there are many other sites that will pay you to run ads for them if you have the traffic.
When you can generate traffic you can make a buck, or a shedload of bucks.

P.S. If you do want to take advantage of this, and also want to sell your own products then this is where you’ll find underserved people to create products for. https://link.wm-tips.com/overlook.
Looking like mice that lost a fight with a wall, these creatures sink their razor-sharp teeth into cattle, all while injecting a special saliva smoothie that keeps the blood flowing.
They don’t suck blood, instead they lap it up as fast as possible, growing so round and satisfied they can barely fly home to sleep it off.
Humans usually get bitten on the toes, waking up to a bloody surprise with their feet stuck to the sheets.
It’s painless for the Human, and a snack for the bat.
They won’t be turning folks into Count Dracula, but they do add some caution to bedtime routines across Latin America.
Do any readers have experience with these?
Please let me know.

P.S. This won’t bite you hard enough to draw blood.

Contrary to the prevailing opinion at the time, the stripes on a zebra are not there to make them less visible in grass or dappled light.
They are there to make it difficult for a predator to choose one to kill.
Lions, and other predators, don’t kill weaker or smaller animals because they’re weaker or smaller, they kill them because they are different and therefore can be identified.
It’s the point of difference that make them a target.
Scientists discovered this when they began painting a spot on a zebra so they could study the behaviour, but the lions would always kill the one with the spot.
Clearly identify who will benefit most from our product and write the sales page or script for them.
The smaller the group, the better your sales will go.
You might think that thee are ten niche markets for your product, and that’s great, but you’ll need to target each niche market with their own sales page.
If you try to include all the groups in one sales page it will convert poorly, if at all.
This will help you find the sweet-spot on the herd.
Slightly off track to start, but I just discovered the the duck song was posted to YouTube 16 years ago and has had 674 million views since then.
. It’s a bit of an ear worm so you might like to ignore that link.
It’s actually quite a good intro to the subject of publish or perish because it’s so stupid that the decision to publish could have easily gone the other way.
Over 600 million views with the possibility of sales of the products listed has to have made some decent income.
Even income from the ads that YouTube would have run over the years could have made decent money.
So, checking out the channel reveals that the creator has a bunch of lego stories etc. and almost none of the videos has his face or voice in them.
175 videos so far in 7 or so different themes over 16 years is around 10 per year.
