@matigo Well done Jason. I'm very pleased for you, that you've found a way to make some progress at last. You're doing good research and executing well on the insights you've gained. Is it a good idea to be sharing all your techniques at this stage though? Why not wait until your sites are more cemented in their proper place before letting other people know how to do the same thing?
(Waiting years before revenue on passive websites sounds very disheartening).
