AAWP Review (Amazon WordPress Plugin to Increase CTR)

This review of AAWP looks into the pros and cons of this Amazon affiliate WordPress plugin, its main features, and why (or why not) you should be using it.

If you’re an affiliate marketer like me, then your challenge is to attract the right visitors to your website and convince those visitors to purchase the product you are actively promoting.

Not only do you need to write excellent content that will have your readers engaged, but you also need to present your content in such a way that visitors will be enticed to click on your affiliate links.

My review of DreamHost is a detailed guide to their hosting plans and explains why (or why not) you should host your blog with them.

When I first started out as a blogger and affiliate marketer, I tried several web hosts, such as GoDaddy and Bluehost, and always with disappointing results.

At some point, I made the decision to move all of my sites to DreamHost, initially on a Shared Hosting account, and later upgraded to VPS. I’m glad I did, because I never experienced any major issues, and my sites were always performing well.

A guide with seven of the best Semrush features to grow your organic traffic, ideal for bloggers who may find this marketing tool a bit overwhelming.

Used by digital marketers, bloggers, and agencies alike, Semrush is one of the most popular SEO and marketing tools out there. But it is also one of the most expensive tools, offering a ton of features and a plethora of insightful data.

The feedback I often hear from bloggers is that Semrush is complex and overwhelming. And I agree, Semrush is definitely a tool that comes with a bit of a learning curve, especially when SEO is not one’s strongest skill.

In this Mediavine review, I will take you through the process of applying, getting approved, and setting up your website for ads. I will also shed some light on how my sites are performing, revenue and RPM-wise. And last but not least, I will share the pros and cons of being a Mediavine publisher.

Mediavine is a company that manages and optimizes ads on websites. Display advertising with Mediavine is very much hands-off. All you need to do, is install a WordPress plugin, configure some settings, and ads will display automatically.

Reviews of 11 of the best WordPress themes for writers and authors; easy to use and flexible themes with a professional and clean user interface.

Writers can use a WordPress blog to not only write and publish their work online, but also to potentially sell their books. Choosing a good quality WordPress theme is essential when setting up your new website as a professional writer or author.

One of the most important steps in starting a new WordPress blog is choosing a good blog name. Far too often, new bloggers register a domain too quickly, only to find out months or years later that their chosen blog name is not the best one.

There can be various reasons why a blog name may need to be changed down the track. Perhaps the name doesn’t reflect the niche well enough. Or maybe the name is a bit awkward, or too long and complicated for people to remember.

In this review, I am going to explain what I like about GeneratePress as a WordPress theme solution, and why I think you should use it too.

GeneratePress is a combination of a free, lightweight WordPress theme and a premium plugin. This plugin allows you to add essential features, but only the features that you actually want to use.

WordPress Tags, some love them and others strongly dislike them. I belong to the second group, but I’m not against using tags.

When I started blogging, I used to create multiple random tags each time I published a new blog post. As I got older and wiser, I’ve learnt to step away from using WordPress tags.
