Here’s what happened in the sixteenth week of my travel blog journey, where things slowed down due to a work offsite.
Last week I received my first affiliate payout. This week I didn’t spent much time on the blog due to a work offsite, so unfortunately I don’t have many new updates to share.
Google has still only indexed 40 of my pages even though I’m continuing to write more posts. I may need to boost my traffic with ads or try a different SEO tool if this continues. For now, I’ll try to post more photos on socials since I didn’t get to it this week.
Tune in next week to see whether more photo posts on IG/Facebook can lead to more blog views!

I would not waste time/money with ads. If I were you would find ways to get other people to cite your pages. That would organically get your pages indexed.
