The intro got me 😂 btw u have come a long way since you started in terms of video script and quality. I have been following you since you appeared on Alex's channel.👍

[@PassiveIncomeGeek]

Thank you so much 😁 yeah, I feel so too. The first ones are hard to watch now :D

[@garibaldi39]

Hope you are having as much fun with making the B-Roll as we are with watching it. :-) Background sound spot on IMO. Great info and really interesting. thank you.

[@PassiveIncomeGeek]

Thank you so much. I am having a LOT of fun with it!!!

[@markuselias6017]

Your acting skills are getting better by each day, Morten! Awesome video btw.

[@PassiveIncomeGeek]

Glad you think so!

[@walkinggoogolplexmindsets3387]

Thank you for sharing this information.

[@midhunvm5101]

Your videos are getting better and better, Morten. Really enjoyed the video like a movie, super valuable, action-packed info too :)

[@PassiveIncomeGeek]

Thanks a lot, Midhun!

[@mejunaidraza]

I have already tried using crazy titles and results are amazing! And due to relevance, I am even competing in business niche. Both are so true.

[@PassiveIncomeGeek]

Nice work!

[@michaelpeters7333]

Great Tips Morten, My first niche was too narrow for sure. I am writing content for much broader niche, but focusing on 1 topic area to start with.

[@PassiveIncomeGeek]

That sounds great! good luck!

[@Kevinstats]

Thanks, the targeting beginners portion was gold for me.

[@PassiveIncomeGeek]

Glad to hear it!

[@itsbunu6728]

Hi Morten, Do you recommend changing the publish date of an article after a massive update? Or do you recommend using “updated on” plugins?

[@PassiveIncomeGeek]

I don't change the published date. I sometimes update the "updated on" date for very competitive niches.

[@aviationfiles6988]

Please what hosting do you use for ezoic

[@PassiveIncomeGeek]

You can always see my hosting recommendations on my tools page: passiveincomegeek.com/tools/

[@RaisulIslam-dq5un]

Hi, Morten. I published an article 2 days ago. It ranked no. 2 in just a few hours. But, since then it started to go down and currently it's in position no. 5 and sometimes it completely get out of the top 100 results. The article doesn't even rank for semantic searches. My site is quite old and authoritative. Is it normal to see such kind of result? What should I do to regain my ranking? Please reply.

[@PassiveIncomeGeek]

It's very normal to see fluctuations like that. Google is testing the article ;)

[@trinagreenfield5198]

I heard you say once that you put your source links at the bottom of the article to help keep readers on the page longer. How then do you reference a source when writing? I wish I could see how you do that exactly. Does the reader know which source at the bottom of the page goes with what part of the article it relates to? I like the idea of doing it like you do.

[@PassiveIncomeGeek]

Yeah, we list the sources at the bottom, and let the reader figure out where each reference is pointing to in the article.

[@trinagreenfield5198]

@@PassiveIncomeGeek Perfect, that's exactly what I've been doing. Thanks!

[@lob3256]

What if there are categories as Reviews, Affiliate Programs, Affiliate Marketing, Side Hustles & How to Articles. Is it good?

[@PassiveIncomeGeek]

I'd say you should establish topical relevance by writing about similar stuff. Let's say all of these categories for a specific product. So the topical relevance comes from diving deep about the same thing.

[@johnnwabuforudemezue1108]

Your videos getting more and more cool to watch. Did you take an acting class? :D

oh, Thanks! no, just spending (a looot) more time on them 😉

Hi Morten, does your course still grant early access to ezoic?

[@PassiveIncomeGeek]

Everybody has access to Ezoic now! So you don't need my course for that.

Is Ezoic's video platform/video playlist ads good? How much revenue can it increase?

[@PassiveIncomeGeek]

I haven't used the video ads much with Ezoic, but I'm sure they are. The ads typically come from Google Ad Exchange regardless of which ad provider you use.

Will you be covering the ADA & WCAG ( ie. access for people with disabilities) regulationsfor websites?

[@PassiveIncomeGeek]

Hmm, I don't know anything about that, sorry!

[@heysaswata]

As always insightful, I just want to know do you think adding FAQs under blogpost helps in increasing CTR? As FAQ schema is implemented then there is a chance that the FAQs might feature in SERP. So does adding FAQs make any sense? Any thoughts, Thanks,

[@PassiveIncomeGeek]

I have rarely seen this work well for information-type articles. More for E-commerce and sites for software services and such.

The intro is so real, lol.

Hey Morten is the course price increasing? How much increment can we see

[@averagebeing_com]

Can you make a video on how to beat higher authority sites on the same topic without backlinks ?

[@PassiveIncomeGeek]

Hmm, that would be hard! That's not really my strategy either. I find it much easier to find underserved topics where you don't compete against anything!

[@averagebeing_com]

@@PassiveIncomeGeek True but my niche is full of super huge domians, Everything that brings decent traffic is already taken so I had to compete with those high authority sites

I changed the Title of one of my blog posts (I only made it longer) and it went to page 4 of Google 😭😭

Give it some time, it will bounce around a bit, especially if the article is only a few months old.

Hi Morten. Google announce that Machine (AI) Content will be rank soon. What is your opinion about AI Content and also future of Blogging??

[@PassiveIncomeGeek]

Where did they announce that? I don't have much trust in AI's ability to fact check, so I think the human aspect will play a big role - at least in the editing process, for a very long time.

[@Sweetfancy3000]

Thank you for the video

[@PassiveIncomeGeek]

Thanks for watching!

[@garydubbs1]

not sure about the background music it made it really hard to stay focussed on your message - maybe it because i have kids and that music is used a lot in their videos!

[@PassiveIncomeGeek]

Ha! that's interesting, thanks for sharing!

[@DeepakKumar-ox5ti]

1- Relevancy, or same aspect of services. 2-Spend more time in finding related topics. Try the niche from another level. 3-Writing on too small topics. Not targeting beginners. 4-Boring titles. Don't go too funny.
