The Most Successful Independent Affiliate Sites

🤯 Glen Allsopp just dropped an epic report

We Analysed 10,000 Product Review Search Results to See Who’s Ranking

 – Can new affiliate sites rank quickly?
– Just how dominant are sites like Forbes?
– Do many independent affiliates reach 1M+ monthly visitors?

Unfortunately, they found only 5 independent websites in the top 100 overall.

Those are five sites that are NOT owned by big companies or part of a blogging network. In other words, they are pretty much the pinnacle of what you can achieve as an independent affiliate website creator.

So there’s a lot to learn from them 🤓

Glen shares two of the five sites…

Three more independent sites from Glen’s top 500…

🍗 Smoked BBQ Source is in my list of 40 affiliate marketing websites and how much money they make.

The founder reported in a September 2020 interview that the site generates $100,000 per month in revenue, with about 75% coming via affiliate marketing.

And the founder of Retro Dodo revealed that the site pulled in $50,000 in revenue last November 🤑

Glen’s full report is well worth reading if you’re into affiliate marketing / SEO. 

One more insight from there…

our admittedly simplistic viewpoint does suggest having some kind of niche element to your affiliate review website will help you rank more often, and higher, than a general review site or general news site.
