How Luke Jordan Went from a Google Penalty To 1 Million Visitors and $42,000 a Month



Published
Luke Jordan is today's guest on the Niche Pursuits interview. He shares his website story, which could also be labelled a website drama! 

Luke first started dabbling with website building when he was a teenager, creating an AdSense site when he was 15 years old. After leaving school, he started his first job in the SEO industry and moved fully into website building a few years later.

Today, he has a popular website that has recently hit a million visitors in one month and seen 42 thousand dollars per month in revenue just a few months ago. However, don't be fooled into thinking that this was a smooth journey because nothing could be further from the truth.

His website has seen many ups and downs and almost complete failure. For example, less than 12 months ago, his website traffic dropped by 80% after a Google Algorithm update. 

Luke has had to overcome many problems to get the success he has today. During the interview, he shares his thoughts and strategies for overcoming these hurdles and turning the site around from rock bottom to the giddy heights of one million monthly visitors.

He talks about the risky decisions he made to save the site, the re-design decisions, and the new writing process he made to improve the quality of the content.

The interview offers many pearls of wisdom for website builders, but the core message is about going all-in on a site when your website takes a hit and looks doomed for failure. Most people give up after being hit by Google, but Luke fought back, never gave up, learned from his mistakes, and today, he shares the story of how he did it.

Some of the other topics discussed during the interview include:

- Link building and the link building campaigns he chose to do on his website
- The decisions made to make his website grow
- Ad revenue vs. affiliate income for his website
- The question to ask yourself to determine if the website is doing things correctly
- Evaluating content
- Targeting Keywords
- Content creation
- Expenses
- His thoughts on selling the website
