Gaining SEO expertise, (6,000 views in September)

Hey she or he that is reading this.

For those of you that are unfamiliar with my goal, I am attempting to reach one million page views online and seeing how long it takes. You should know, before reading forward, that I like writing. I don't know why. I also like playing piano and guitar. Have finger dexterity is fun for me. If you hate writing, please don't do it.

For those of you who are looking to get the writing ball rolling, you can always start with Associated Content. An online writing platform that has relatively no restrictions, is easy to get into, and subsequently pays little. From there, I would transfer to either Bright Hub or Demand Studios as the pay is typically double or triple. AC is great for starting, however. It, at least not in my experience, does not pay enough for the time and effort that I put in. I will still use AC to write stories about local bands, but for academic grade content I certainly would suggest Bright Hub.


This September alone I have received 6.000 new views. I get paid $3 for ever 1,000 views. You can do the math. Keep in mind that these writings are assets. I will only continue to make money off of them, for as long as they are read. Neat yes?

To achieve one million hits at 6,000 a month I'll achieve my goal in approximately 14 years. However, I have noticed an exponential growth pattern (when I am writing full time). If my growth were exponential it would only take considerably less time.

5 fun High School Spanish games is by far the most exponentially growing article I have ever written. I had a feeling about this one.

Also, I get a job at an SEO company. I work at Advise Media Group and love it. I am doing for a living, what was my hobby only months ago. I am writing, using social media, and link building. It looks as though my goal of 1,000,000 views is much more likely to occur. Furthermore, we are going to begin an SEO radio show, which will lead to a great deal of expansion in the future as well.

Needless to say, what began as a hobby and a dream has truly begun to manifest in both money and popularity. My 5 fun High School Spanish games article is averaging 41 hits per day. It shows no signs of slowing down either. I haven't even put it on social media yet, or really advertised it.

This month, so far, I have 3,400 hits on Bright Hub. It is the 20th. This means I will average in the 5,000 - 6,000 range for the whole month. That is $15 for sitting on my behind, writing more content for other sites. That, my friends, is an asset.
