Need suggestions

Hi,


I’ve recently launched my pet website, and I’m looking for advice on how to start earning from it.

I’ve already published some articles and joined a few affiliate programs, but right now my site isn’t getting any traffic.

Can anyone suggest what steps I should take next?

1. Create social profiles for your website (Facebook, Instagram, etc.) and link them to your website to get social signals.
2. Start some cold outreach to similar websites in your niche and ask them if you can write guest posts for them in return for a link.
3. Check your competitors' website and see what they are doing in terms of SEO.
4. Don't fill your site with ads right from the beginning. It will hurt your user experience and will have a bad effect in the way of how long a user stays on your website.
5. Don't focus on the money aspect right away. Make your site known first and then monetize it later.

These are some things i just thought about that might help you. Look at it as a long term project, not just a quick build and sell project.

I got around 1871 views per month on my pet site from 28 ref domains four my own sites other just directory sites.

Work on social media instagram upload regular photos or videos of pets in your niche or if you got own one do that regular using #cute cat,sweet cat# or any pet related ones to your niche

Pinterest use as well uploading images.

Make a youtube channel.

I done all the keyword research myself to allow easy to rank for things.

Be creative in your niche. I am not going to lie I find it interesting when people walk cats or hedgehogs so if someone did that kind of article would read it.

You can normally rank fairly easy by doing the right long tail keywords using semrush or Ahrefs or other things for data.

You can ask in these sort of groups for free pet guest posts some be good but most be okay but good places to get free links either way https://www.facebook.com/groups/2694408500724571

Always compare your site to competitors lets say you compare your site and it turns out they got better images than you then delete lower quality images and upload higher ones to improve user experience.

Getting a few niche edits can be good ranking here if any exist in your niche.

Focus on niche guest posts.

Get other high quality ones to boost your site authority.

Don't forget about creating an llms.txt file
