December 2020 Update


As December comes to a close and the new year starts. It time to start that good old tradition of reflection on the year that was.

It’s time for me to reflect on my 2020 goals and start thinking about my 2021 goals.

Fishing Website Update

I published two posts on the fishing website this month and signed up with Amazon’s Affiliate Program.

Currently, the website makes some money through ads from Google. But as the site gets more views and grows, it’ll open up the door up to better ad networks.

I’ve completed some search analysis to create a hit list of 60 blog posts that I’ll create in the following months. My main focus is on creating helpful content first. Once I can get good organic traffic to the site, then I can work on monetization afterwards.
