3 vacuum cleaners in 1 day

I know that sounds like a random title.  And, I suppose it is.

 

Please note that this article contains affiliate links.  You can read my full disclosure in the right side bar (scroll down a bit).

 

For those of you who know I've been in the process of monetizing my blog, it may make a bit more sense.  Yes, I'm an Amazon Associate (affiliate link) and I earn a small commission when people click my links and then buy something from Amazon within 24 hrs.

 

So, on my blog, I recommend products to my customers, primarily items that are related to flooring (e.g. the best polyurethane, the best hardwood flooring cleaner, the best vacuum for hardwood flooring).  These are items that I already recommend to my customers.

 

I've been trying to write more articles like this, hoping that they get found on google and that they are useful for my customers and convert well.  So, today, I was pleasantly surprised that today, I sold 3 vacuums all in the same day.  These are great vacuums and reasonably priced.  And, they tend to earn higher commissions compared to a hardwood cleaner or felt pads or a book, so anytime someone buys one, I feel good.

 

This article converts pretty well, so I would love if it did better on google.  So, today, I looked at my analytics (via search console).  And, where do I rank?  #12.  Not so hot.

 

So, one of my tasks now is to get this to rank better.  Hopefully, the link above will help.  I also had a fellow blogger friend (who happened to write an article about vacuums and how her son loved them) link to me, too.  I'm on a quest and I'm hoping I can somehow get the article to rank better.

Three vaccums is impressive. I had a few tranasctions through my affiliate links, but nothing like what you have going on. I need some lessons LOL!

Three vacuums sold in one day is great! I know that once you set your mind on something, it happens - so I'm sure your article will soon be a lot higher in the ranking.

Ben DeHaven Great idea.  Maybe I should offer this as a service for some people here.  Yes, I'm lucky.  I've been getting around $600/month...in August over $1,200.  We'll see how these next few months go.  I'm hoping higher.

Jay Markanich Thx.  If you miss me, text me.  I've only been answering calls I know or local and I recently got a new cell phone and prob only 80% of the contacts transferred.  Go figure.

Kat - I hope so.  In this case here, it may be more challenging than usual based on the names of the sites I'm up against and I now realize they are trying to do the same thing.

I belong to Commission Junction but I haven't used to monetize my blog. I'm not quite there yet, not sure I want to "sell out," LOL. I did do it when I wrote for (another website), though. I sold a lot of real estate forms and believe it or not, flea powder. There were months I was pulling in a thousand bucks + on forms, and then (another website) decided to form a partnership with the real estate forms company and deal with them directly, cutting me out.

Kathleen - Yes...I just wish I understood how/where (the ones converting) so I can do more of it.

Elizabeth - Interesting.  I may need to broaden my horizons.  I have not had success w/ CJ, so I'm no longer using them, but Amazon has been great for me.
