The most important thing to remember when changing your career is to never change your industry. Because if you do – all your progress will be lost. This is something I learned when I decided to change career from software developer to something completely different. My work is different, but my industry is unchanged. This helped me to quickly get back to my previous earning […]
Every tool ever created replaced some task that people previously did as a part of their job. Forget about AI – just regular tools are well known for task replacement. But what happens to jobs and careers? They change, morph, and sometimes disappear. To understand how AI will affect programmers, let’s take a step back and analyze the big picture. Programmers – Past If we […]
Look around the office – you don’t see many “old” faces, do you? And there is a reason for that. Software developers have a very short expiry date. I should know since I was one of them. Luckily, I managed to change career from software engineer to something completely different. And I became just another burnout statistic. Planning For A Short Career There are always […]
When you absolutely dread showing up to work – you know it’s time to change your career. Especially when you think it wouldn’t be any better even if you switched jobs – the problems would still persist. Personally, I went through a similar thing when I had to change career from software engineer to something completely different. What Makes People Stay Let’s face it – […]
I must warn you – I will be extremely biased, but I think the best choice someone can make is premium writing. This is because: And the biggest benefit of them all… You can use your current knowledge to start this new career. I know this because that is how I managed to change career from software engineer to something completely new and never had […]
There is no such thing as “no experience”. Just being able to read this requires some internet/browsing skills. One career, for example, could be teaching computer skills to senior citizens. This is a limited example, but the truth is – you have much more skills than you realize: As you can see, everything and anything you know – someone else doesn’t know (and may be […]
Contrary to popular belief – regret is a good thing. Just like pain, it informs us when something is going wrong and lets us know we should do something about it. Then the obvious question becomes – should you change your career? If you’re in your 60s… If you’re 64 years old and you’re going to retire next year, then the obvious answer is no. […]
The easiest way to create an income source without having a strict schedule but still retaining a decent amount of autonomy is freelancing. And one of the things you can do as a freelancer is premium writing. However… Another alternative is building a business (which is easier said than done). You see, business is simple but hard. There are 3 components every successful business needs: […]
I can best explain this through a real-life example of how I managed to change career from software developer to something completely different. But if you want a super-short version – the key is in changing your career and NOT your industry. This tends to be a common mistake people make. Because it is safe to assume a lot of people dislike their career, but […]
The key to transferring skills to a new career is to change a career but not your industry. Here is why and how… For example, I managed to change career from software engineer to a premium writer in a very short time period. How? By not changing the industry I was in. And this is the key whenever you decide to change your career. Because […]
Having a career that pays well is a great start, but sometimes that isn’t enough. And many software developers are waking up to this fact. Lower-income careers might sometimes be more enjoyable, but struggling with every bill makes your entire life miserable. A higher-paid career that you don’t enjoy is even worse. Because you can quit a low-paying career without blinking an eye. However, when […]
When you really think about it, starting a new career is much easier at 40 than it is at 20. Why? Because of all the existing knowledge you have. This is what I realized when I had to change career from software developer to something completely different. I had so much knowledge that went beyond pure programming: Changing a career while still using all the […]
Who said you do survive? Take a look around and notice how many old programmers you see? Probably not very many. This should tell you something obvious – very few programmers survive this industry. So even though this career is very profitable, it has a very short expiration date. And any programmer not planning this in advance will face problems. I know it the best […]
SEO (search engine optimization) is a process of changing your website’s content in a way that will be more useful to your readers and ranked higher in the search results (for example, Google). The higher the ranking, more visitors your site will get. Since your site’s main goal is sales, the more visitors means more revenue for your business. The main factors that influence a […]
The simplest form of business is affiliate marketing business. In this model, you make money by recommending other people’s products. All you need to focus on is getting traffic to your website, and that’s it. You don’t have to: How Affiliate Works? You simply get paid whenever your website visitor clicks on the product link (and ends up buying it). BUT Why would anyone pay […]
Calls are important because more potential customers will end up buying the product. The second reason is businesses can sell more expensive products over the phone. For example, no one will buy a $20k product without the call. But there are more psychological and practical reasons that make a call the perfect solution. For example… Easier To Decide When potential customers land on your website, […]
It is funny how the top 2 most unpopular freelance platforms are also the most profitable ones. But people often fear rejection and lack patience, so they skip big opportunities. If you’re different, I suggest you try to use email or blog platforms. You might say this is not what you meant by “platforms”. You wanted some new, exotic, never-heard-of platform that is waiting to […]
Best way to help your friend’s business is to avoid well-intentioned (but harmful) advice you’ll find online. However, you can never go wrong if you find a way to get them (or show them how to get) more customers. That is why this article is going to cover the following: But usually, your friends will appreciate just knowing that you’re cheering for their success. Because […]
Until we reach a point where artificial intelligence is capable of actual thinking, the AI content will not be suitable for SEO. And there are mathematical reasons why any attempt to manipulate the algorithm will be short-lived. This doesn’t mean AI content is not suitable for any use case. For example, this limitation is quite welcome in most business chatbot applications. But SEO requires specific […]
Blogging is the best way to get new clients for bookkeeping. Because they need to know you, trust you, and like you. Using a blog you accomplish all three at once because it gives you exposure and establishes you as an authority. Most of your clients are going to be new business owners. This is because it’s much harder to convince someone to switch their […]
The best way to get clients for photography is through a blog. And the worst is Instagram. Why? Because that’s where the biggest competition is. And very few photographers consider a blog which can give you an advantage. Do you want to stand out? Then don’t drown yourself in the sea of other images with thousands of other photographers on social media. Besides, social media […]
The cleaning business is one of the rare businesses that aren’t very competitive online. This means you could get loads of clients using a blog. Even better, you could (relatively) easily scale this business to a national level. Most cleaning businesses are focused on just getting barely enough clients to survive without any scaling intention. It’s looked at more as a job rather than a […]
The best clients are the ones that are ready to buy, trust you, and who contacted you first. The fastest way to get these clients is through a blog. Any other method is either slower or fails one of three critical elements. Because business is a game of trust. And nothing makes me trust you less than your cold call. First of all, it’s interrupting […]
The blog is the ultimate tool for generating high-quality leads that are impossible to get through social media or even Google Ads. Because you can target highly interested people with an unmatched level of accuracy. To get regular leads you can use other methods like Google Ads, Facebook Ads or any other social media ads. But you can never approach the quality of the leads […]
Yes. One topic signals to the search engines you’re an expert in what you’re doing. But this is something your readers perceive as well. And having multiple topics seems unprofessional. Just think about it. Let’s say you encounter a site on dog toys. And there are bunch of articles, all related to this topic. And then you find some article there covering top beard products. […]
Yes. From personal experience, the domain name does help SEO. If you have a domain that contains your main keyword, it will help you rank, especially for all long-tail keywords that contain this main keyword inside them. Also, the shorter domain is, it is easier to remember. But also, search engines are aware that shorter and simpler domains are harder to come by. So having […]
From personal experience, the search console doesn’t help you rank higher, but it can shorten indexing time. It doesn’t do this out of the box, though. You must submit a new blog/page URL inside the console and request indexing. So it helps you to get indexed (and consequently ranked) sooner but you will not have any other advantage just because you use GSC. What helps […]
Today, comments do not help and can seriously hurt your SEO. That’s because of the huge number of bots running today. They will not only spam but also put unwanted or dangerous links on your page and hurt your SEO. As you can see, this blog post doesn’t have any comments allowed. And it’s not because I don’t like interaction. Neither it’s because I don’t […]
Yes, every startup company can start as a blog. In fact, it should start as a blog because the biggest threat to startup survival is not having enough potential customers on its website. And blog solves this problem perfectly. Startup companies are too quick to jump on product creation before they even know if anyone is going to want their product. And a lot of […]
You can blog about anything, but if you want to make money blogging, you must follow some rules. For example, you need to match your topic with keywords to be able to get readers to your blog, etc. Another thing you’ll want to do is match your topic to available products or monetization methods. So there are some limitations. Besides, I described this already in […]
You can make money blogging about your life, but it can’t be at random. You need to match your experiences to questions/keywords people are typing into the search bar. Otherwise, search engines will not show your site to anyone. Because your blogging has two separate issues you need to solve (especially when running a personal blog): This article contains answers to both of these. How […]
Blogging is the biggest opportunity precisely because you can’t make money right away. This causes 99% of people to quit because they can’t be persistent for 3-4 months. And that’s why it’s so easy. And if you’re on this page, it probably means you want the results immediately. Which is great (for me). Because you are one of those potential competitors I’ll never have to […]
Blogging business model will be successful for a long time. It’s going to be even more successful in the future. Why? Due to instant gratification, you will have fewer competitors as they’re unable to wait 3-4 months for results. Even today, blogging is great because people quit all the time (for no good reason). People will usually write couple of posts, maybe even 10, see […]
Blogging about surfing can make you money, but only if implemented correctly. This means you cannot write about whatever comes to your mind. Instead, you need to use specific keywords to make this work. Blogging is not social media where you can just publish whatever you want and hope for the best. BUT This is also the best part about blogging: no hope is required. […]
Blogging can definitely increase your level of freedom, especially financial freedom. Is it a bulletproof method to free you completely? No. Because people cannot free themselves from emotions, relationships, expectations, etc. The point is, there are a lot of factors that go into one’s personal freedom besides money. But money is probably the biggest factor that will move you in the direction of becoming more […]
Blogging is an ultimate business-building machine as it requires very little startup costs, doesn’t require you to have any products to sell, and it’s very flexible about your writing schedule. Best of all, it works 24/7 for you. Out of all businesses out there (especially the ones that use social media), blogging is very beginner friendly in terms of time commitment. You can even do […]
Blogging about any subject (including sports) can make you money. But only if you take the right approach and use the correct topics/keywords. Writing randomly on whatever crosses your mind will not produce results. Blogging is not like social media where you can publish anything and just hope it sticks. Because blogging has very different way of getting readers: search engines. This means you will […]
How often you write makes no difference to the search engines. They only care about how much quality content you have on your website. It’s better to have 60 articles now than to release content every day over the next 2 months. Main takeaway is: blog is not social media and your posting frequency doesn’t impact your results (only the quantity and quality of your […]
Blogging signals to the world that you know what you’re talking about. If your content is good, it raises your trustworthiness as well. These things increase the chances of people buying from you (also known as conversions). The exact amount depends on the quality of your content and your industry so it’s impossible to put an exact number. BUT Think of it this way… Spam […]
Blog can be used to showcase your skills which will set you apart from other job seekers. Also, if successful, it can turn into a business, so you won’t need a job.

Having a blog is like having a thousand little billboards promoting your business. Every piece of content you publish can show up for many different keywords in the search results, just like a little digital billboard. So the more content you have, the more digital billboards you create. Naturally, your content only works if it is seen by people who are interested in your products […]
To be clear, websites are not on any page of search results. Only specific pages from your website can be on search results for specific search terms (keywords). And blog allows you to have more pages ranking on search results. So the more blog content you have that is relevant to your target audience, the more search terms (keywords) you are covering. This means you […]
If you commit to blogging, your business will be unrecognizable a year from now. Blog is also the fastest method of getting new customers to your business. But because it lacks instant feedback, it’s misinterpreted as being slow. Aren’t those the same thing? No. If your social media requires a year to produce serious results and blog only takes 6 months, then the blog is […]
A business blog is the best option for organic revenue growth (meaning your company grows without paid advertising). It gives you the highest returns, and once it’s written, it keeps bringing you more and more customers. The biggest opportunity with a blog is that your competitors are not taking it too seriously. Why? Because, naturally, people are very short-sighted creatures. And just because a blog […]

This is fundamentally a wrong question because time will not grow your business. But, for example, 100 blog posts could. Writing 1 post per week takes 2 years. 2 per week takes only one year. One per day takes you 3- 4 months. But it’s not the time that grew your business. In this example, it was your content. Your blog posts. So asking how […]
Programmers that make the most money are the ones that don’t have a job, meaning they aren’t working as programmers. Instead, they have businesses (YouTube, other social media, or blogs).

Short answer is no. Because of the bank transfer time and potential refunds, you will need some operating cash. However you can start with affiliate marketing, and without any major site modification, switch to dropshipping later.

It is not easy but it is very simple. Write blog posts around specific keywords that your customers are interested in, wait 3-6 months for search engines to fully rank your content, and enjoy free traffic and sales forever. But let’s go one step at a time… Free SEO Traffic Once you have free traffic to your site, your business can never fail. In fact […]
Let’s first clearly define what passive income is: do it once and get paid forever. Many people suggest YouTube, but that is not a passive income. It is a full-time job, and the moment you stop recording, your income starts to fall. Compare that to writing a blog and positioning your website on search results pages (SEO). The older the content, the better. You don’t […]
Easiest way to make money as a developer is to get a job. If you already have a job then the best thing you can do is to get twice as much money for the same amount of work (I’ll show you how). And the third way is a side project. Job There is no wisdom here. If you have the skills then go to […]

And I haven’t heard anyone else talk about this, which means you’re about to tap into something brand new. Your mind is about to be blown away… The best thing about this side hustle: How? Just double your salary! This is not a joke. I […]
The best 3 side hustles to do during any economic period are sales, copywriting, and web traffic generation. Since most people dislike sales (and copywriting is just sales through text) then getting web visitors is your best bet. Sales used to be the best skill to have before the internet era. When the number of people you got in contact was limited it was important […]
Best recession-proof careers used to be sales and copywriting (which is just sales in writing). But thanks to technology, website traffic generation career is becomming the most resilient and most profitable career of them all. Sales used to be number one because every company wants more customers and more profits. Especially during economic downturns. So a good salesperson is never out of a job. Even […]
Traditionally, if you wanted to recession-proof your life, you would go into sales. Because every company always wants more customers. But due to technology, an opportunity better than sales is available: web traffic generation. Why the sudden shift? Because even though sales is very important, getting more visitors to a website is way more important. So even with an average sales process, if you bring […]
If your business is not naturally recession-proof, you can take steps to increase its resilience during economic downturns. One of the strategies is to create a passive source of clients that costs you nothing (no ads). One of the best ways you can get more visitors is by positioning your website on search results pages (commonly known as SEO). And the best thing is: you […]
I have more business ideas than I could implement in 100 lifetimes and after reading this, so will you. Formula is simple: get search traffic to your website + give people what they’re looking for = receive money for your efforts. But let’s back it up a bit… how do you even get search traffic? What does it even mean? Why are people going to […]
Recession proof business either does not have reduced income during an economic downturn, or it can easily handle reduced customer demand. It doesn’t rely on capital to grow (ads) and instead uses content to attract new customers. High profit margins during economic boom also indicate some level of resiliance. However, you need to take into account fixed costs a business might have. For, example if […]
The good and bad thing about clothing is that it never lasts, and you must continuously renew it. As a career, this means there is always a demand for these products, even during economic turmoil. And most money is made in sales. If you’re on the production side of this industry, the margins are thin and you’re limited to the number of items you can […]
This is a good career as long as you’re not involved in the manufacturing part of it. What should you do instead? Since these are very expensive tools, there is more money to be made in selling than manufacturing the instruments. Even though this is where the biggest money and most promising careers are made, many people dislike sales. If you are one of them […]
Major chemicals is a good career path, but only if you stick close to the money. This means you’re in sales, marketing, copywriting, etc. If you’re involved in production and chemistry, you will (unfortunately) not earn much. And I know many people will immediately point out it’s not fair. Because people who are producing the actual products should be earning the most. To that, I […]
Working in luxury hotels and resorts is an amazing career path, but NOT for surface-level reasons. The biggest advantage is you get to meet rich and influential people, and you are one step away form changing your life forever. Who visits luxury hotels and resorts? People who have financial means to do so. And since 80% of wealthy people are self-made, you will most likely […]
Homebuilding used to be one of the best career paths because of the demand. But today, in most western countries, birthrates are very low and in 30 years there could be 20-40% less people, and the buildings from today will stay. This means the supply of houses and apartments will exceed the demand. There will be very little need for additional housing, and the housing […]
Business services is a great career path, especially one area that very few people talk about: website traffic generation. Here you have an option to add commission-based payouts to your salary and make your earnings limitless. Because you ever want to have a really successful career, you need to get off from your fixed salary and move towards performance-based payouts. On a fixed salary, regardless […]
Even the best jobs at commercial banks are set up in a way so you can never leave. Top executives get impressive bonuses, but they can only collect them after a couple of years, so they have to stay or lose the bonus. And when they finally receive the money, they “get” even bigger bonuses which they can only use after couple of more years. […]
Precious metals offer a wide range of jobs. If you’re working on production (digging dirt or engraving jewelry) you won’t make much. Plus, entire mines can be shut down in case of major price pullback and you’re out of job. But… …if you’re involved in sales or marketing part of this business, your income is secured. And in today’s world, thanks to the internet, there […]
Non-durables is a broad industry with good and bad opportunities. But, as long as you stick to the industry’s sales area, you’ll be fine. Also, as a bonus, this industry is resilient overall during economic downturns. Why sales? Because the closer you are to a place where the company is making money, the higher your salary will be. I did not make the rules, it’s […]
You can take two paths in this industry: programming and sales. The path of selling software is a better option because of the higher salary and also compounding knowledge that doesn’t get outdated every 5 years. Software development, on the other hand is hard to keep up, and everything you learn will be worthless in 5 years. This means your years of experience add very […]
Aside from insurance having the most perfect business model, this career offers you to be very close to sales. Because the closer you are to money (in any career), the more you earn and the higher demand for your services. Why is insurance the perfect business model? On top of that, any person who sells insurance usually has commission-based salary. This means there is no […]
Since the entire world is connected through telecommunications, this industry has many opportunities. Still, most of the jobs are not that good. Especially when the economy goes down, then many people are laid off. Because when the economy is booming, then everyone needs the latest phone, faster internet, and more TV subscriptions. But when money gets tight, then people cut on those things because last […]
Marine transportation has so many drawbacks it’s hard to fit inside one blog post. But people are attracted to this career because it pays very well.

Maybe if you’re young it’s fun to go […]
Public utilities career has many benefits, but the problem is it’s heavily regulated by the government. This means your salary is also heavily regulated and you will not be able to earn more no matter how good you are at your job. And the situation is similar across all different public service jobs. Just try to think of the best and the worst teacher you’ve […]
This career path has one big problem: it’s regulated by the government. This means you are essentially doing public service, and there will always be a ceiling to how much you can earn (regardless of your contribution). Personally, I don’t like my income being predefined and limited because then I lose most of my motivation to do that job in the first place. Especially when […]
Major banks offer well-paid positions during the economic boom, but as soon as the economy faces issues, there are major cutbacks, and a lot of people get fired. So, this job tends to let you down the moment you need it the most. This is expected when you think about it. When economy is booming banks are lending the money and there are a lot […]
People think this career is great because it creates parts for everything else used in the economy. But during the economic slowdown, product sales slow down, components are less needed and people in this industry are fired. So in a way this career is great, except for when you need it the most: in a recession. And I think a lot of people would prefer […]
Capital goods is a great career in a booming economy. But as soon as the economy slows down, these goods start to pile up in the warehouse, and many workers are no longer needed (as they are frequently laid off by the thousands). This means you will have a job when it’s easiest to find a new job. And you will be fired at the […]
Transportation used to be great career path beause of high salary and long-term employment. But today it’s obvious it has no future and no job stability due to self-driving vehicles. However, there are some robust alternatives. As technology moves forward you will see more and more jobs being automated away.
