Today it's Website Wednesday, where Ilook at a website and talk about
what you and I can learn fromit. And I'm going to be talking
about a website that is kind ofin a micro niche and that website is
(00:21):
Michael esk dot com. And thereason I want to highlight Michael's website is
because he ranks for some incredibly valuablekeywords, yet he only has forty one
blog posts on his website. Solet's see what makes Michael's website so special.
Let's start by talking about who isMichael Esse? And to quote his
about section, it says, Ihope artists and designers come up with winning

on demand companies and sites providing tutorialsand guides to help you sell more merch
and increase profits. If you're lookingfor practical advice that will supercharge your ideas,
boost sales, and help you growa sustainable business from your art,
subscribe to my free email newsletter todayend quote. That is an incredible about
(01:08):
section. It's short, describes theexact audience that Michael writes to, and
it has a single call to actionat the end of it. Now,
let's look at michael sx hero section. The hero section has very clear copywriting,
reading free weekly tips to supercharge yoursales. After that, it has

print on demand website. Now,let's look at the structure of one of
his top blog posts titled eleven bestPrint on Demand Companies and Sites. If

(01:51):
depth. Michael obviously knows what he'stalking about. He shows lots of examples
of eat and each section of theblog post could be a blog post of
its own. At the top ofthe blog post, he has eight single
paragraph summaries of the top four printon demand platforms and the top four print
on demand websites. Under the summariesare is an affiliate link to take you

post reviewing the particular print on demandplatform or site. And as you jump
to each section of this incredible pillarblog post, you'll see complete reviews for
each platform, lots of images,internal links, affiliate links for platforms that
integrate with the print on demand sites, and helpful external links. Now,

focus is on print on demand platformsand how to get the most value out
of them. If you look atother websites talking about print on demand such

see that they cover a wide varietyof marketing and e commerce content. On

action on your homepage, use socialproof and use short, engaging copywriting.
