Current Challenges in Content Creation

The content creation industry is facing significant challenges due to Google's recent updates that favor established websites over newcomers. This has made it particularly hard for beginners to gain traction in search results, as they often struggle with the complexities involved in building effective content sites. In response to these challenges, industry experts are discussing alternative strategies, such as leveraging funnels, but many beginners show resistance due to the required effort. This leaves the question of how those new to the content space can find a viable path forward in 2024.

It's no secret that the industry has been struggling for nearly a year now following the HCU. And it's been particularly difficult for beginners to get started, as established sites have been dominating search results.

So the question everyone’s asking is what future-proof tactics should beginners actually be doing in 2024? (That isn’t spammy or potentially illegal.)

In this episode, we chat to Jared Bauman, co-host of the Niche Pursuits podcast, about the game-changing way he made an impressive $40k in only a few months, without driving traffic, showing his face, or spending a dime: the Amazon Influencer Program.
