Pau Forner’s main website is Una Vida Online 🇪🇸
He shared in a recent interview…
I started this website in 2018 as a side gig to share my experience and knowledge in blogging and affiliate marketing…
…we are currently making about 18K per month with a good profit margin. Our revenue comes from selling online courses and WordPress themes/plugins, as well as community memberships.
Also, around 50% of our total revenue comes from our affiliate sites which are very well-positioned in the Spanish market.
I love seeing successful businesses like this in non-English speaking markets. It’s a good reminder of the opportunities that are out there.
If you’re fluent in a language besides English, what business ideas do you see working well in English that might also work well in your language / area? 🤔
A few examples I’ve covered before in this newsletter…
- $285,000/month Danish newsletter
- The 72-Year-Old Mexican Grandma Dominating YouTube
- 3 Non-English Wordle Websites Earning Big Money
But remember that such businesses usually require a ton of time and effort before they bear fruit 🌳
Pau’s business was no different in that regard…
The beginnings were tough and I almost gave up. I could only work on my websites at night and I didn’t make any money in the first 8 months.
The first affiliate commission he earned – after 8 months of work – amounted to only €2.06, but that motivated him to keep going 💪
Good thing he did…
After two years I was making more money with affiliate commissions than with my salary as a full-time employee, so I took the step to quit the job and focus entirely on my online projects.
Pau also emphasizes that you don’t need to be an expert to get started…
When you start, make a list of your interests and what you are good at, and try to solve a very specific problem in the most practical way possible. Don’t be afraid of not being an expert. Even if you are not an expert now, you’ll have to research to create content for your website or channel, so you will likely have become one by the time your business starts getting some visibility.
