Niche Site Project One – Month Thirty One: December 2024

Another Google update and no real recovery still, its looking sadder and sadder as we are well over a year now of declining performance. To me there still is no reason to delete everything and give up, I can tell you on the other sites I have started changing to a membership/locked content approach to hopefully build a “patreon” style MRR by providing unique content that will not be available for Google and other AI programs to steal and give away. I don’t think that fits well with this site but I may look to see if I can find some $4.95 to $9.95 ebooks to offer and try to see if I can supplement income from visitors that way.

Content Production For NSP1 In December 2024

This month I didn’t add any written content but there was three Flickify videos from Ezoic that were added to the bevy of available content to hopefully pull in more visitors from search related video, video ads, and maybe get a smidge of that sweet Google search traffic back, so far its been DOA.

Income For NSP1 In December 2024

This months results were lower from last month due to winter coming in its to be expected and matches previous years. Ezoic Ads brought in $15.62 and affiliate brought in $1.06 for a grand total of $16.68 for the month. This is such a low point but at least it pays for the hosting, plugins, and needed tools to continue existence while others are failing all around me.

Analytics For NSP1 In December 2024

Overall traffic numbers are flat, Matt Diggity released a video talking about cutting out duplicate content with 0 views and I may attempt to streamline content on the site and see if it can help.

Google Search Console For NSP1 In December 2024

Search lost around 50% more of the already paltry clicks from Google showing me Google still is a sad search engine. Basically its getting near nothing from Google which is super sad.

Amazon Performance For NSP1 In December 2024

Amazon let me down hard this month but in a site more organized towards summer this was to be expected and it will be this way plausibly until Spring.

Ezoic Performance For NSP1 In December 2024

Ads are still the only consistency in income which is probably the sole bright point as it shows if I can just get traffic to the site it can at least give me nearly $17.91 EPMV. I am working to figure that out, feels more and more like you have to have Facebook, Pinterest, or other hardcore social approach in this Post-HCU world.
