I'm focusing on growing 3 businesses at the moment. I am aware of the fact that I could be spreading myself too thin, but I'm going to have 1 clear goal for each business. That should help keep things manageable. Everything I do this month will be related to the following:

I started out in web development and built static sites before I even knew what Wordpress was. My first successful affiliate site was built using pure html and css with bootstrap.
The reason I switched to Wordpress was that there wasn’t really a lot of people who wanted to buy a non-Wordpress...

Reduce personal debt by 50% - Done. I actually spent about a week sorting out my finances back in September, It's quite scary how unorganised I was and I had no idea what was getting paid and when. I now have a spreadsheet that contains every bill and debt and I can see balances, minimum...
Grammarly is probably the best thing to use, you can get the chrome extension and work directly from your browser.
Hemmingway App is also something that you could use to make sure your content is not too complex.
I'm happy to take a look at your content if you still need a second set of eyes.

How much do you spend each month on outsourcing content?
As @stackcash said above, this all depends on what stage your site is at. I am currently growing my site, so at the moment I am spending roughly $300 per month on content. In the next few months I would like to double that, if budget...

Slow growth this month, but growth nonetheless.
I am trying to run Ahrefs site audit on my Wordpress site, but the crawl fails every time. Ahrefs support says it is because their bot encounters a captcha on my site which prevents them from crawling.
My web host says that they are not blocking any bots, and according to their logs Ahrefs bot...
I don’t think it was an accident, looks like he’s merged the two sites. Every article that was on kissmetrics is now on NeilPatel.com, and is redirected to the corresponding article.
Must have been a lot of work, although it makes sense to have 1 site instead of two smaller ones.

That’s a great read, and it makes you think about what actually goes on in the online marketing industry.
This just reminded me, a couple of months ago one of the top product manufacturers in my niche emailed me.
In one of my buying guides I listed their second latest product as the best, and...

If you can get a relevant page that has good links pointing to it and traffic flowing through it, that’s the ideal situation.
Otherwise, I’d be looking for a page that is hyper relevant to my page. If none exist, I’d look for a high traffic page...

Is your bounce rate lower on desktop? It also depends what the goal is that you want your visitors to do. One of my sites has a 90% bounce rate, but it’s ranking fine and earning good money.

It’s been like that for a while now, it can take weeks to index a new post by using the submit tool or fetch tool.
What I do now to index a new post is interlink from a high ranking page on my site, it gets indexed a lot faster.
If you have 450 posts and are struggling to make 70 Euros this month, then I don’t think more content is going to solve your problem.
You mentioned that you tried outreach, and it wasn’t successful so you gave up. I suggest you try again, read the crash course and just keep going with it.
