[00:54] A lot of millionaires go to Summit. [01:15] TED attracts a lot of wealthy people. [01:53] Eric likes to plan out what events he is going to attend each year. [02:10] He is going to an EO University event in Portugal. [02:23] If you just try to meet them just for the sake of meeting wealthy people, you will be unsuccessful. [02:45] You will attract people with money if you offer solutions they may not have thought of. [03:13] Don’t charge for advice or services, just offer your help. [03:33] Neil met a wealthy guy by helping him for free for over a year. [04:30] You have to understand why people befriend each other. [04:45] Connect on your common interests.

[00:52] Neil’s stamp occupies both Quicksprout and Neilpatel.com, so he has twice the authority in the rankings. [01:10] Ranking 0 means you can occupy the answer box. [01:32] A lot of this comes down to title tags. Google looks at who is generating clicks. [02:00] Use Clickflow to check your pages and run A/B tests. [02:15] Don’t duplicate your content. It can be similar, but not the same. [02:33] This will also help when cross-linking. [02:52] 8 out 10 will read your headline, only 2 out of 10 will click through and read the rest. [03:05] If you don’t want to spend money on Google Ads, you can remarket for search ads. [04:04] Consider creating multiple sites. [04:15] This includes social profiles and guest-posting. [04:30] Buffer grew through guest-posts. [05:22] Having a few competing sites is a lot of work/upkeep. [05:32] Remember to update your content. [06:00] Use Ahrefs Link Intersect, as this will show you everyone who links to your competitors, but not your site. [06:15] That’s it for today!

[00:56] Ubersuggest is popular in and of itself. Link building wasn’t necessary. [02:06] Use Ahrefs or SEMRush to see how your site and keywords are ranking. [03:00] Leverage social sites to get more press. [03:15] Reddit has subreddits for everything and is a great resource. [04:18] Our sites already have domain authority, so our tactics will be different. [05:00] Eric’s team is planning to create more products and sites that are practical. [05:56] There are paid tools that have more features than Ubersuggest, but they aren’t free! [06:11] That’s it for today! [06:15] Go here to see how many downloads the show is getting.

[01:58] Then he created content by finding YouTube videos of light shows and writing about them. [02:32] He then started reaching out to similar sites and got a few cross-links. [02:50] He ranked #1 for keyword “light shows”, but he found that he wasn’t making money. [03:20] Neil created a job board, but he wasn’t getting any traffic. [04:08] He also did outreach and tried to make connections. [04:23] After changing his email template, he got 1 response. [04:41] It takes a lot of fine tuning to be successful.
