This week on the podcast Jake Cain is interviewing Austin Tuwiner.

Austin is a marketer who dropped out of college at 19 to pursue online business. He wanted to focus on his niche site in the crypto space. He had bought the domain, which had many great backlinks, in a private deal, and grew it to an estimated 150K traffic per month (Ahrefs).

He has since sold this site and is now working on another in the scuba diving niche. He is also bootstrapping an affiliate marketing SaaS tool called Afflytics, which is perhaps his main focus right now.

Jake and Austin cover a lot of ground in this podcast, but the theme throughout is affiliate marketing! There are some excellent tips and strategies on how you can grow your niche site and increase your earnings - even with Amazon Associates!

Matt Diggity is someone that has been buying, building, and growing affiliate website for a long time. In fact, I had him on the podcast about a year ago to discuss some of his background.

Since then, I've stayed in touch with Matt and he started sharing more and more about the recent success of a couple of websites that he purchased.

These 2 sites have gone from making less than $1,500 a month combined to nearly hitting his goal of $100,000 per month (combined earnings) before the end of this year!

And all of this growth has happened in less than 2 years.

How did he do it?  Well, that's the focus of this brand new interview that I'm releasing today.

We dive into tons of SEO strategies, but we focus mostly on E.A.T. (Expertise, Authority, and Trust) and Link Building.

Affiliate marketing can be a lucrative business.

In fact, it’s how I was able to quit my job over 9 years ago and I’ve been building sites, products, and running various online businesses ever since.

However, when it comes to building a site like OwnTheYard.com (my Niche Site Project 4 site), it can be extremely risky.

An affiliate site that is reliant on Amazon for its earnings and Google for its traffic really is at the mercy of businesses that are out of your control.  

Today I want to take a look at both the upsides and downsides of affiliate marketing and then what I think you can do to eliminate some of that risk.
