Hey mile what you think about what niche I have to choose to start my blogging
Jamaica
Google do same thing with copied articles or text. Google can match your text with other text and see when the original text was first indexed and the copied text will be ranked so bad … if at all. Just FYI 😶😶😶😶😶😶😶
Why will a Domain Authority drop on Moz from 9 to zero reading. I tried checking for duplicate content but I'm sure if there was a foul on page, yoast would have help detect. Please help
I love you, but please buy good mic
Great video! So is the keyword research still important ?? If yes, is the keyword research process still the same as you teached before? Thanks miles 😊
Instent ranking drop on 8 January
Thank You! I'm glad that effort and time are finally getting ahead, bringing out the opportunity for dedicated people.
I caught your Livestream the other, I asked a question there that you summarized pretty quick, and I just wanted to let you know that this video answered it perfectly for me in regards to what I wanted to understand. Thanks, Miles!
25 Year Las Vegas Realtor – with 200 pages of good content and 14K backlinks. Site 5 years old but started getting backlinks July 1. Ahrefs went from DA 25 to 60 in two weeks. Two weeks later went back to 25. Now a month later at DA 38 on SEMrush. Where am I??? I feel like a yoyo! In today's report my keywords are tanking- like 20-30 positions…
Excellent work, as always! After almost a month, I think it is clear (as you suggest) that the real winners in this update are bloggers who create unique, quality, and most importantly, useful content. The sites that just cranked out a bunch of crappy inexpensive articles that really don't add anything unique or useful with stock pics that re-hash Amazon reviews got creamed. It is nice to see Google rewarding the creators who take the time and effort to put out quality content. IMHO.
My Peptalk I will save for myself: Minute 34:10 ff Thank you Miles, thank you Kiren! "… It is the amount of action you are willing to take… You need to do whatever it takes to write the absolute best post on the topic… So no excuses. Excuses aren't available and allowed here. It is realy time to step up and push to making things work." Yes thank you. I feel my behind kicked 😀
Question here miles – if Google is wanting there be an authentic person behind every blog, how can you run multiple blogs if that's something you want to do? Are you use your name or a different persona for every blog business you currently run?
Hey Miles! I want to say thank you for being so open and $tr8 forward with the information you provide. You don't know it now, but I can assure you that in a year from now you are going to see how much value this particular video provided to me with what I'm doing now. The Google doc about website quality rating and authority is ULTRA helpful because it showed me that I have been on the right track without knowing that I was literally meeting Google's quality requirements… Thank you! Thank you! Thank you! You are deeply appreciated for this man!💯
I don't leave many comments but I just wanted to let you know that I just passed $1,000 a month and that you had a lot to do with that. Thank you and Merry Christmas!
If EAT is so important then why are you not using your name on all your other niche websites? I searched Miles Beckler and can't find your name on ALL your other niche sites
Not only do I appreciate you so much for the value packed marketing videos…
I really appreciate your honest commentary on the conspirituality plaguing the New Age community, refusal to wear masks and the disappointing lack of empathy for others.
All this time hi dreaded the possibility that you and Melanie would have gone down the Q Anon 5G lizard people rabbit hole also… and that I’d have to unsubscribe from your videos.😭
So many of my crystal shaman, spirit guide channeling friends have.
Really relieved To hear that you think it’s crazy also. 🤪
Trust in Google and YouTube is even gone.

Miles,
It seems that it is very hard for a beginner to satisfy 'EAT' for Google, isn't it?
Thanks for the update Miles. I didn't realize there was even a Google update. Im a newbie website owner. I freaked out when my traffic boosted high, then went down to nothing, then back up again. We do an affiliate gardening site.
Love your brutally honest content!
Damn miles i hate you because what you said is True..and i need to look back to see whats wrong with my work..thankz a lot.big respect 🙏
Question for you miles: So I have a Blog in the Health Niche. I've been working in the Nutrition Department of Whole Foods Market for 17 years. So I know a ton of stuff about supplements. Just published my 1st article, but was slightly discouraged by what's been going on with Google's algorithm updates. Should I look for a new niche or continue publishing the best content I can? Just looking for your professional advice. Thank you 😊
Thank you for always having great content. You are super knowledgeable.
Honestly, the sad shock is that Google, FB, Twitter are part of the problem silencing experts that are credible the stuff happening in the world today is the biggest scam put on the world, hard to believe for most. Digital burning of the books.
I'm loving this! Thank you so much for putting this out here!
Your level of honesty is just amazing! You're truly the most helpful digital marketer on YouTube!

Hi Miles, I wondered if you might have any insights into the spiritual industry & websites. I am in a similar line of work to your wife and my site has taken quite a battering in the last 10 days…probably the biggest one it has ever had in the last 13 years. My ears pricked up when I heard you mention Google penalising alternative healing. I do practise alternative healing and I also teach psychic development (reading the akashic records). I thought perhaps these would be downgraded in Google's eyes from now on because they are not scientifically proven and are based on belief rather than fact. I also wondered if I should stop writing about the alternative healing modality I practise (cord cutting.) The reason I am asking is because I already practise a lot of what you are recommending here, although I can see a couple of areas for improvement. Seems like a rather big drop and I am trying to understand why. I'm a big fan of your content… inspired by your energy, dedication, passion & "Just do it" attitude!
Positive effect. Affiliate marketing. Had my first over $50 day. I'm not hiding behind fake names and stock photos, and I had a small Youtube channel(not this channel I'm commenting). I should upload more videos, I only have 5, but I have 115 blog posts, most are starting to rank. Thanks for the video Miles!
Edit: Aand I had my second over $50 day yesterday.
Hi Miles, a question for yourself or other marketers that have achieved success with their blogs: How do I know whether to keep going with what I've built or to do something else? I have a blog in the personal development niche, I have 95 posts and monthly visits of 22,000. Not yet monetized and traffic growth has stalled. Sometimes it feels like I'm wasting my time. I can't allow myself to give up because I've put so much into it, but I can't see any progress…
Holy crap dude, how do you only have 164k subs. If everyone watching realized the gold they are getting here, everyone would be much better off. I've known the basics for quite some time never taken action, but you explain things so simply that it is very motivating. Not saying it's simple work, because it's not, but you put it in very easy to understand terms. Thank you.
Hey Miles ! Thanks for this update it's helpfull tot understand how google works after every update.. (I've seen the hole video, I can't decide if the update affected me, because it just matched with the lockdown and i'm in the internet bloging…small businesses were really affected do they're in urgency of searching a lot like you said.)
I have a question: What would you do if you have an article with a high searched keywords that is part of another article ( or page) with a higher numerber of search…(exemple: (1)How to rank high on google has a large amont of requests but (2)How to do SEO has more. The first one is an answer to the second one but the first one deserves to be on google as its own … would you do 2 separates articles or would you just do one ? In my case i do the second one as a guide with multiples "1" and I put the link of the 1 article inside of it. am i wrong ?
Hello from France 😉
I had a slight fall in traffic, but then it was followed by a significant boost in traffic. Dating niche.
Affiliate marketer here. 2 sites. One dropped a bit in traffic. Another increased. Stable overall I would say.
No change
Alva,ok
Very interesting! Thank you.
Our Affiliate marketing blog 6months old does not seem affected.
