For Lawfred.com I have not even touched the site since the first batch of 2,589 articles. Traffic is actually down to only 22 organic sessions in January. I have been focused on building a SaaS tool every night after the kids go to bed with the couple of hours I do have for side projects.

My strategy at this point is just to wait until the final month to try and pump out timely relevant content that will hopefully hit on Discover.

I have not even started on my other 2 sites. May also bulk publish in the final month as well.

I still have the same 2,589 posts published on Lawfred.com. I plan to add more content to these existing posts and add more posts in general this month.

I have not published anything on WordGrail.com or NameGrail.com, my other two sites I will hopefully have time to get to. But at this point it seems they do not have much of a chance even if I do get something live.

Hello everyone,

Here is my update: https://youtu.be/fAh9sxP4tFI

Lawfred.com has 2,589 posts with 2,126 indexed using the Google Indexing API and a custom script I wrote. However, the content is thin with only short legal definitions for each post and I only had 24 clicks in GSC for November. I need to add some examples to each legal definition post and add internal linking to help them rank higher in search results.

I have yet to add any content to the other 2 sites I am building, but when I do I will cross-link between the 3 sites like my own little mini PBN.

I feel very behind on the challenge as I have nothing published yet. But I do have 2,589 “Definitions” generated which will be part of my Lawfred.com site. I have not started on NameGrail.com or WordGrail.com, which are the other 2 sites I am intending to build.

So far I have wrote a script to scrape quite a bit of data that I am using as context in my prompts to the OpenAI API to get better output. I find this helps to prevent “Hallucinations” and give better output. I also ran into issues with rate limiting when attempting to bulk generate using the OpenAI API. I solved this by adding a delay of .5s, 1s, and finally 1.5s. Though in the process I did end up wasting about $5 worth of API usage because I was waiting to “save” the previously generated posts in batches. I have also occasionally ran into issues where the API will hang and then I lose all of the previously generated posts. So it is good I was batching them.

I’m hoping that next month I will have a lot of articles generated and published.

Here is my video.

I am happy to know that I am not the only one with 0 sessions yet! Everyone loves a comeback story. Go underdogs!

Hello fellow builders! I am excited to take part in this challenge as a sort of competitive motivation and case study. I am a Marketer and Web Developer and currently building my first SaaS product, GrailWriter.com, so this will be a great opportunity to dogfood my own product as they say. I also run a Slack Group for programmatic SEO builders to help each other learn at pSEOHackers.com. I have been following Spencer for quite some time and love how open he is sharing his Niche Sites and doing fun things like this contest to engage the community. Good luck to you all.

Why are you waiting to submit the sitemap? That is always the first thing I do after going live with a new site. Just curious the reasoning.

Great video. Way to spice it up.

Hey Madison. I also have two young boys. They are amazing, but the struggle of trying to be a present parent and still scratch the side project itch is REAL. Good luck.
