[@DianasReviews]

Adam, thanks for this starter video. Can you please post another video to go further into organic reach besides keyword/seed phrase optimization?

[@basharalali5273]

Is there a paid way that you take me over, you support me choose my niche and start my first few blog posts and witness making money online for first time? If there is such, please sign me up, I really have watched more than 150 vids online and more than a thousand blog post on how to start, but I think there is something missing people won't give it to you for free. What do you think?

[@xqp5503]

Dear Adam, can you provide me the SUPPORT EMAIL CONTACT of your course: Growth Engine Course? I received the MAIL confirming the Purchase, then the Mail with Instructions, and another one with a LINK to access to the COURSE. I never accessed to the COURSE, because I was working and I never did the time for it. NOW, I am trying to access to it and the link doesn’t exist anymore. Can you help me with this please? Thanks!

$250 a month to use this website what a joke

[@MaggieSmith-jg2cv]

Hamster. I started an affiliate marketing coupon/deal back in 2000-2012 and made several million dollars, ended up selling. I'd love to get into affiliate marketing again but realize times have changed. This video has been very helpful and look forward to exploring your course options and other content. Thank you. And to everyone else out there, this is possible! If a poor mom of 4 kids can do it, make millions of dollars, and be featured in a major magazine, you can too!

[@opinionbytriz]

Thank you for the encouragement. I'm hoping to finally accomplish things in my life.

[@theandlife]

🤩

[@MrDeSilva]

Adam, after watching the majority of your videos and going through your "Master Class I" about 5-7 times, I have a pretty good idea of what I'm doing and how to execute the techniques, all thanks to you! Although I´m not done with this one yet, I didn't want to wait another 4-5 hours after digesting it to express my gratitude for all the value you've provided over the last three years (I believe). I've been a subscriber of yours during this time, and I want to sincerely thank you. Your contributions and the way you convey your knowledge to the rest of us are highly appreciated. Please keep them coming. Cheers!

[@DianasReviews]

Now you’re ready! Good luck 🍀

[@pranakhan]

How had the experience been for you? I'm just starting out on this journey, and I'm hoping to build something for myself with these methods

[@pranakhan]

No more Hamster on the corporate wheel for me! Made it to the end, trust me, it's definitely NOT boring. Only a master in his field would say something like that, truly. My brain is on fire with the possibilities! Its complex & scary, especially with money on the table and a lack of in-depth knowledge, but I need to escape my job with a Mr. Smith in the Matrix level of intensity. I have a brain, & access to a computer. Everything you've laid out here seems logistically well strategized. Let's move forward!

[@riskiclumsy6878]

this need some beat

[@faelanatlife]

I paid for a blogging course, but your video was so much more helpful! Thank you for putting this out here for us!

[@MStar58]

Hello Mr. Hampster! I only just found you today. That was a truly amazing video. I've paid tons of money for classes that didn't cover these things in nearly the detail that you have in this one video. Thank you so much for the killer info. I took loads of notes and am going to be all over your other videos! I have a few websites and have been struggling with getting back into them after a 2 year absence (due to family issues) - so much has changed since then - while the basic principles have not. I really needed this and am finally re-inspired. ALSO... I would definitely watch anything you did regarding how to do KZbin and some of the other topics you were talking about earlier. You can count me in as a regular viewer going forward. Thank you so much for putting this out there!

[@AdventureswGreg]

Yeah. I'm glad I found you on KZbin. You seem like an very genuine guy. I thought it was hilarious when you said in one of your videos that you got bored of passive income. Thanks for this in depth video. Here's a comment for the algo!

[@Sigma-JasonMarsh]

Well done Adam, you are one of the best informational content builders and teachers on KZbin! Thanks, Bud keep it up I'm so glad I found you!

[@BNAFitnessTV]

Hamster! I'm getting ready to start my first blog and this was the best in depth video on this topic. Thank you Adam. You rock!

[@ja2971]

Hi. How are you doing now?

[@RezNou]

Hamster was hesitating and this was a push to get him off the wheel, cheers!🍀

[@NTSHMA]

You're not blogging, you're selling shovels to bloggers.

[@candicegunstream-rr117]

Top ranking video on YT for sure. I’ve been blogging for 10 years and I actually heard multiple things I’ve never even heard before so totally updated great video 10 thumbs up ❤❤❤

[@jasonwilliamson4211]

Hamster! I just found your channel and this is exactly what I was looking for. Great content! Thank you!

[@brentjenkinsdesigns]

I've watched your 80+ minute and since I'm a premium subscriber im gonna download this one. 🙃

[@vlad013]

Downloading this free course as I type this comment; superlative stuff, thanks Adam! Love your content brother

[@Kamis_Space]

I'm not a tech-savvy person or detail-oriented. Thank you for breaking down blogging into manageable chunks for me. Hamster

[@alienesse]

This video is one of the most valuable ones I have seen yet. I am very inspired to get this going. I am still iffy on what tools to use but I will just rewatch and see if I can figure it out. Good work.

[@baricada.]

This is gold. Thank you for sharing this details with us.

[@nicolelopez1564]

Thank you, Adam. This has been extremely helpful and you filled in the holes of what other youtubers were missing in the information. I'm looking for an evergreen additional source of income in addition to my full-time job.

[@yourlegalright7598]

Hamster. It was a very informative video. I am from Pakistan and honestly, I didn't know that there are certain high-profit niches until I heard from you. As you already explained keyword research is fundamental and that is what I am stuck at.

[@roniramirez6934]

Hamster: I have gone through several videos on affiliate marketing I’ve even gone through the Fullstaq marketing courses, but I have learned/ understood more from your two-hour video so thank you. PS. I hope this comment made sense it’s 2:00am and I’m falling asleep, but I had to finish the video.

[@murielllina]

Awesome! I really watched it until the end and I am fed up being in the hamster wheel. No, I am blogger from Switzerland 🇨🇭and my aim is to make a living from it. Till now, I did it as side business, but because I am high sensitive (actually my new top blogpost), I prefer to write and not being exposed all the time

[@hfbco.7114]

Hamster. Great stuff, Adam. I have been wanting to do this for years and had very little confidence in starting. What direction do I go. How do I actually do this to rank and bottom line profit. I’m not very tech savvy. The one thing I have is that I love learning…about everything. I love helping people solve challenges. Your frame of reference has helped me understand the real “value” you bring as a blogger. In addition to opportunity for compensation, you are really helping people. That’s huge. Can’t explain how much I appreciate your videos. Every one is top line content, and keep me watching until the end. You’ve given me the confidence to start. Now onto narrowing down my my niche interests.

[@javadchohan]

Hamster, I need to watch this video a few more times and take notes. I really really desperately need to get started on making a blog site and growing it but there have been a lot of grey areas that kept me on hesitation mode because I have lost a lot of money in various businesses and almost became homeless as a result so I don't want to make any mistakes on this one. I will be watching more of your videos and also keen to work with you on your course offerings if possible. I have 25 years experience in my niche and would like to educate and teach my experiences and skills to others.

[@devanrohrich]

I’ve taken a break from my blog, but I think I’ll start back up after watching this!

[@modernfitnessfactory]

Same here

[@user-og7eq1vw5y]

You are my blogging bible! Only one word: Thank you!

[@Sazi16]

Hamster - was so easy to make all the way through because this was invaluable info. By far the most comprehensive and genuine video I have come across on the subject. Thank you Adam!

[@paulburkhardt8947]

Thanks for another great video Adam, and as always, hamster!!!🐹

[@ERimpapova]

Great video! Every minute was totally worth it! Hamster's questions: what's your view on 1. the option to add a contact form after each article 'Still having a question? We will answer it for you!' with the purpose to a) learn what he didn't find on the article, b)capture the 'lead' and keep the engagement, c) answer the question, d) make him no search further. 2. The option to provide assessments so the reader instead of spending time reading can easily find the right tool based on few questions.

[@AdventureswGreg]

I think your first question is extremely cool. I don't know what the answer is though.

[@PamelaSimmonds]

Maybe I'll write about Hamster 😊

[@countrymama626]

Hamster! Thank you for the time you took for this video. I'm a month into my first blog and trying to make the right choices and focus on the most important aspects. Your advice is very helpful. It's easy to go down all the rabbit holes that people recommend, most of which are time wasters.

[@CarlosLozano-u3k]

Thanks for taking the time to make this I’m a newbie so need all the help I can get Thanks again

[@racheljebeles9284]

Hamster :) Great info for getting started in blogging!

[@jessinademarco2111]

Hamster! ...What a great and thorough video. It is much appreciated, as a newbie in blogging. Starting your Master Class I next.

[@elizabethholloway6945]

It really is a great video. Amazing how much amazing content people share on here.

[@onlinemarketingwithAndyH]

Hi Adam, Hamster is here, thank you so much for that video. loads of great stuff. Would love to invest in your BGE course but not in a position to do so presently but maybe in the future. Many thanks again for that free content, great job!! Andy H

[@mybocks3]

Most excellent. Got a ton of value out of this.

[@patriciajohnson6114]

Hamster X 2, I watched this twice! Great information Adam. Thank you and Happy Father's Day!

[@deanacharlene]

Your videos have taught me so much more than anything I can pay for. They really help us beginning in affiliate marketing. Thank you!

[@AdamEnfroy]

That’s great to hear

[@PalatialDreams]

You Changed My Whole Life, Thanks!!!

[@Holistichealthbuddy]

Amazing video with lots of information and hope. I am a new subscriber !

[@SherynD43]

hamster!!! THANK YOU FOR THIS!! Most thorough content I've seen and I appreciate you!!

[@ruthwebster8391]

Hamster - yes watched all the way through. Stopped for lunch. Awesome video as usual.

[@blaz.zed.sandore]

Good minted content on all one needs to know about blogging. Thank you so so much for the insight

[@sandrabrooks7930]

❤. A lot of information. Thanks for sharing.

[@localgems]

"Hamster" Thank you Adam, I started my website/blog in January 2024 officially (6 posts in, got my Amazon links setup) with the long game in mind. Having fun figuring it out. Once I have more capital I have some courses in mind yours included. Cheers!

[@robbd9935]

Hey, how has it been since you posted this?

[@QurikOfficial]

Even though it feels like I'm on a hamster wheel, I'm still working away on my blog. The biggest issue I've found is making quality connections for backlinks without sounding robotic or spammy or having the tools to find quality sites to work with. In my niche, there's a lot of small businesses and if they even have a blog, their DA is very low. Most below 10 and none I've seen above 30.

[@ribbles1699]

This may be the most useful video I've seen on KZbin. Even more useful than the one that helped me fix my dishwasher. Easy sub.

[@AdamEnfroy]

Haha glad to hear it!

[@Kimmmgdd]

Hamster...Amazing content...definitely the most comprehensive on blogging in one video...thank you!

[@AnthonyVickersSoulJahTYah]

Hamster :) will be checking out your masterclass ..thx man.. hope to launch my biz blog this spring/summer. I'l update you * Well done BIG RESPECT ADAM ... Anthony London UK

[@monique8957]

"Hamster"- Very comprehensive video. Thank you! I must admit that after you said that blogging is a science and not an art, I started rethinking my plan. 🤔 Then, when I saw the cost of Surfer SEO, I almost fell on the floor! I know you said this is a business and I get it, but I am closer to your $5 Subway sandwich situation than I would like to admit. I already paid for Bluehost for 1 year, so I am committed to that for now. I have to do everything else free or dirt cheap because of a shoestring budget.

[@SmartVitalityHub]

Hamster - great video. I will watch again 😅. I’m old skool learning on the go and at home 👍🏽 best use of my time. Thank you

[@keniavalenzuela1218]

Thank you Adam! Great information, I'm working on my blog and I felt lost but now I have better idea, I will continue learning.

[@daisyychenn]

Hamster! Back to this very first blogging idea after 10 months. Good to finish the soothing course as a start :)

[@janettemcgregor5678]

The most informative hamster I’ve watched in a while. It was lengthy enough for my long commute home.

[@michellefoster1990]

There is a hamster in my brain running on the little wheel after watching your video! Thanks for sharing this very in-depth video. I like the honesty about how you actually have to work and spend money. Plus, there is no BS on how you can make $20,000 in just one week as a beginner. It's refreshing. You are a good teacher, and from what i have seen, this is the best how to start a blog video on YT.

[@TavonGrahm]

hamster!!! just want to say thank you adam for all the game you have delivered in this video man ive been trying to make money online for about 5yrs now and no luck, but im not giving up this video really opened my eyes into the world of blogging/ affiliate marketing and one thing that I took away from this video is sticking to it its a marathon not a race. I have a few niches that ive looked up already with low comp and good search volume with difficulty under 5. Im definitely want to join the BGE community the price is just a little out of my budget but once I get there I will forsure be joining thank you again for the free game it helped me out alot man.

[@AlexStatlenz]

Great information as always

[@onemooreday]

A big thankyou for helping me get this far

[@dee3724f]

Loved the hamster bit! Your videos have helped me tremendously to get better focused on what is needed instead of a bunch of hype and hoopla. Will take alook at Surfer SEO but will likely purchase ahrefs anyway. Thank You Adam! I hope your wife and little one on the way are doing well too!

[@greatwhitewebsite]

Hamster love to you. You keep pushing me to be better.

[@melissadollheiser7733]

by FAR the best free course on KZbin. Wow - thank you for all this invaluable information! 10 pages of Notes later...

[@AdamEnfroy]

Glad it was helpful!

[@A.J_Buswell]

Adam, Thank you so much for all your doing. Discovering you today - for me - is an example of "trust the universe". I needed to find you today. @65 years of age I need to move slow in order to move fast, and you are a master at explaining things in a way we can all keep up with. My Fedora is off to you sir.

[@thevirtualsolopreneur]

Hamster! Thank you. I enjoyed your video. There were several golden nuggets throughout, and my overall takeaway as a complete beginner is the confidence booster I needed to realize that results are attainable.

[@PabloEsguerra-lz9dz]

Adam great video! I will watch your masterclass. I am looking forward to start my blog and this has been the best video I've watch.

[@shibdenhall]

Hello Adam, I've been watching some of your videos lately. In my humble opinion and being myself in the field for a long time, your advices are gold for beginners. When I come to take a quick look around to see what my "colleagues" are saying, you are very clearly my favorite guy in this affiliate star race. In fact: you're above racing, unlike everyone else. I really appreciated that you confided a little about your life before and your motivations to get out of it. You seem to have great human skills and values that I completely share. Keep up the good work and the strong, sane vibes. I am proud to have a colleague like you who understood many things at different levels.

[@keanealtoveros8522]

Super solid video Adam. Will have to rewatch to pick out all those gems! Hamster!

[@theshepherd-ict]

Hamster 😃 the one of the best video from Adam Enfroy, wanted this for a long time, Thank You Adam, The value you are providing is very valuable

[@SaintsLife-oh9sv]

Hamster - watched the entire. Love all the videos..

[@quesoismyname]

Hamster. Great video. Thank you.

[@markbrady1549]

Hamster, great video. Some may find that Adam talks fast and covers a lot of information (because he does) but follow the video with the transcript and it’s easier to stop to make all the notes you want. Than resume without losing where you left off, having to back up or move forward etc. because everything he just said can be copied to your notes. You might even want to make a copy of the transcript and follow along with that and highlight what you want.

[@LuzeaT]

Hamster! 😊 I have been known to make gerbil jokes so I thought this was funny. Loved your video thank you for all the info.

[@JawadMarrak]

Amazing content. Very human and touches every sweetspot you need to know about. Thank you so much for the value you put out there. Cheers from Morocco and yeah Hamster ;-)

Great video really enjoyed it, especially the hamster part!!

[@runroemer7741]

Hamster, Adam. You're inspiring me to do something I've considered and wanted to do for years but just didn't want to take the risk and leap to do. Thank you! I will be signing up for your course soon.

[@jenw1116]

Can't believe how NOT BORED I was during that whole video. You did really well, so much information. Excellent! Thanks... Hamster 😂

[@rakshandaamte889]

Heard only 6.22 mins and already able to relate to you!

[@curtbremner]

Totally awesome Freudian slip at 37:57. Talk about telling us how you really feel, Adam. : )

[@jonathan30071]

Hamster! hey man thanks for this, I've been looking for this kind of clear information. I am eager to watch the masterclass and potentially contact you to help me out with a couple of questions (mainly google not indexing and plugin optimization) for my website. Thanks again!

[@geranraath]

Hamster! - loads of value. Thanks Adam.

[@TheBodyElectricSupplement]

I am really enjoying your video. As I am painting my bathroom on a Saturday night, I'm listening to your Masterclass. I feel like I'm in some RomCom date with you. Maybe its the music, or maybe its the deep insight into human psyche put to application in the free market. Look at you, being a secret super hero. Thanks

[@adnanmazhar4415]

Hamster 🎉, the only long video that I have ever watched. Learned alot and will definitely applying those valuable tips that you have provided throughout the video. Thanks alot and hopefully soon will be posting my success story. Cheers!❤

Great video Adam. To add, for those looking to amplify their blog's lead gen, consider leveraging 'topic clusters', this SEO strategy can boost your site's authority on key subjects, making your content more likely to rank and attract qualified traffic.

[@TPXblog]

Hamster baby! Awesome video.. Gonna rewatch multiple times!

[@applehead357]

Hamster! Yes, I watched the whole video. Absolutely fantastic. Already bought hosting, etc. Onward. Thanks for your information. 😎

[@TeleNikon]

Hamster if you made it 👍😄 Happy to help!

[@PeppermintPurls]

Hamster! This was so helpful, thank you for taking the time to create this.

[@leedowthwaite2828]

Hamster, that was one marathon video. Thanks, I really appreciate your dedication, and I can't believe you said you were introverted and wanted to remain anonymous behind a blog - you're a natural on video! A question: I'm returning to a semi-successful blog I started a few years ago. It has generated some small passive income while I've been away. I'd like to rebrand it to make it slightly more broad, plus I feel the URL is too niche. Will I lose a lot of Google authority if I do that? Should I redirect? Or should I just stick with what's there and build on it?

[@wheelersinthewild]

Great in-depth video Hamster, thanks for sharing all that info 😊

[@ryanmccann8518]

Watched the whole video, thanks Adam.

[@VictorSharamet]

Hey, Adam! Thanks for such an interesting video. I found the last 40 minutes particularly helpful as you laid out how things really are in a calm manner. For myself, I realized that for now it's better not to take the course, but to improve my expertise and sell seo services with website development. Speaking of hamsters. I hope they didn't fall asleep by the end of the video. All the best!

[@ceecheve]

Thank you, great information. I put it in 0.75 speed to digest it better, you really compressed a lot for the time. Great guide.

[@zd1281]

Hamster! Appreciate your work man. Thank you
