SEO Tool For Ranking On Search Engines Like Google<\/span><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">One of the best tools ever is Keysearch. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">It helps to find keywords, people are actually searching for. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Keysearch shows you the monthly search volume, how competitive a keyword is, and all the related keywords. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If there is one tool you want to invest in, go for <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/keysearch.co\/?via=d56a78\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Keysearch<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">It takes out all the guesswork and helps readers find your content. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">More readers = more money.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>Another tool I can&#8217;t live without is <a href=\"https:\/\/app.neuronwriter.com\/ar\/7cd3748a8a2565c7040a1cc1006fd900\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">Neuronwriter<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/app.neuronwriter.com\/ar\/7cd3748a8a2565c7040a1cc1006fd900\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/app.neuronwriter.com\/creation\/7cd3748a8a2565c7040a1cc1006fd900\/neuron_bw_3_1920.png\" width=\"300px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>I use Neuronwriter for every article before I publish it. It helps me to see if there are certain keywords I need to include, if the headings are optimized, and helps me to see what my competitors are doing.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"8_Social_Media_Pinterest\"><\/span>8. Social Media: Pinterest<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Pinterest is by far my favorite platform. It is not really a social platform. Pinterest is a visual search engine, and besides traffic from Google, it is the best and easiest way to get traffic from Pinterest.<\/p>\n<p>If you want to learn about Pinterest marketing, check out my <a href=\"https:\/\/thefemaletravelpreneur.com\/pinterest-workflow\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">Master Pinterest In 1 Day<\/a>. It&#8217;s the only resource you need to get views, clicks, and traffic to your blog.<\/p>\n<p>To schedule Pins to Pinterest I love the native Pinterest scheduler and Tailwind. It&#8217;s one of the only official apps\/platform, you can use to schedule pins. If you want to give it a free try, you can use <a href=\"https:\/\/www.tailwindapp.com\/i\/cityseacountry\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">this link to test Tailwind<\/a>.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"9_Earn_money_from_Ad_Displays_with_Ezoic\"><\/span>9. Earn money from Ad Displays with Ezoic<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Ezoic is a Google certified Publishing Partner where you can <a href=\"http:\/\/ezoic.com?tap_a=6182-5778c2&amp;amp;tap_s=734911-74d55a\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">sign up for free<\/a> and make money via ads. If you are currently on AdSense you might want to consider to change to Ezoic because the earnings are higher.<\/p>\n<p>I&#8217;m very happy with them. You can start opening your free account right away. For another site of mine (<a href=\"https:\/\/italythingstodo.com\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">italythingstodo.com<\/a>), I use Mediavine as an ad partner.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"10_Make_money_with_affiliate_links_promote_companies_and_earn_a_commission\"><\/span>10. Make money with affiliate links (promote companies and earn a commission)<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>The best and easiest way to make money with a blog is by including affiliate links. You sign up for a partner program, use your specific link, and every time a reader buys via this link you earn a commission.<\/p>\n<p>If this sounds overwhelming, I can highly recommend you signing up with <a href=\"https:\/\/www.travelpayouts.com\/?marker=368890\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">italythingstodo.com<\/a>. You sign up once (for free) and you can promote brands like Booking, Agoda, TripAdvisor, RentalCars, Viator, <a href=\"https:\/\/partner.getyourguide.com\/en-us\/signup?partner_id=ASEFBW2&amp;cmp=communityreferral\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">GetYourGuide<\/a>, among many other tour and ticket companies.<\/p>\n<p>For accommodations, my favorite affiliate partner program is <a href=\"https:\/\/www.stay22.com\/referral-program?referred_by=cityseacountry\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">Stay22<\/a>. Since I signed up with them my affiliate revenue for hotel and accommodation bookings went up by 5 times in the first month. You can read my full review about it here: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.cityseacountry.com\/en\/stay22-review\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Stay22 review<\/a><\/p>\n<p>When you sign up through my Stay22 link, you will receive $100 after you make 100 bookings through the platform.<\/p>\n<p>Another amazing platform for all kinds of affiliate programs including travel insurance, eSIM cards, transfers, trains, buses, hotels, is <a href=\"https:\/\/www.travelpayouts.com\/?marker=368890\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">Travelpayouts<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>One of my other favorite programs is <a href=\"https:\/\/discover-car-hire.postaffiliatepro.com\/affiliates\/signup.php?a_aid=Christina\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">Discovercars<\/a>, because you receive a high commission for promoting rental cars.<\/p>\n<p>All of them are free to join, and you can start making passive money right away.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"11_Wise_%E2%80%93_Receive_and_Send_Money_Internationally\"><\/span>11.
