The program: from a niche to a system of sites

Eight stages. Each one ends with something that works in your project, not lecture notes. You set the pace; I guide you in your project thread.

  1. 1

    Strategy and niche

    Pick a niche and a model: blog, comparison site, ranking or calculator. We check demand, competition and what the programs in that niche pay.

    Result: a project plan with numbers

  2. 2

    Networks and programs

    Choosing affiliate networks, bank and fintech programs (US and UK), publisher approval, ad and disclosure rules (FTC, ASA), so commission is never lost.

    Result: approved programs

  3. 3

    A professional blog

    Domain, hosting, WordPress with a fast theme, legal pages and disclosures, partner links set up the way networks expect.

    Result: a site ready for traffic

  4. 4

    Content built on data

    A topic bank, articles with a short answer up top, tables, FAQs and sources. A publishing plan: how many articles a day and in what order.

    Result: a content calendar and the first articles

  5. 5

    Tools, counters and trackers

    Calculators, rankings, offer and rate trackers, counters with real numbers like the Empire Counter. They are what makes a site worth citing.

    Result: a site people come back to

  6. 6

    SEO and GEO

    Visibility in Google, Bing and AI answers: structure, structured data, internal linking, readiness for AI agents.

    Result: traffic from search and AI

  7. 7

    Tracking traffic and commission

    Google Analytics 4, Search Console, Bing Webmaster Tools, server logs and UTM tags. A report that shows which article earns.

    Result: you know what works and what does not

  8. 8

    A system of sites

    More sites on a shared content base, automated publishing with an AI agent, a newsletter and Telegram as channels you own.

    Result: a network of sites instead of one

How we work in the group

Bank and fintech programs

Which banks and fintechs pay publishers, for what exactly, how to get approved in the affiliate network, and why part of the commission is lost when links and pages are set up wrong.

Advanced affiliate projects

Comparison sites, rankings, calculators and data-driven sites like TillRadar and MainStreetRadar: how to plan, build and keep them visible in Google and in AI answers.

An affiliate system, not one site

A network of sites with a shared content base, internal linking, traffic and commission tracking and automated publishing. I show the blueprint my own fleet runs on.

Guidance on your project

You describe your project in its own thread: URL, traffic, programs, goal. I guide it in writing, step by step, to the next stage. No live calls: everything stays in the thread.

How the guidance works

  1. Once in the group, you start a thread for your project: the URL (or the idea), traffic, the programs you work with and your goal for the next few weeks.
  2. I answer in the thread: what to do first, in what order and why. No generic advice, always with your numbers in mind.
  3. You come back with results or a question. The thread stays, so after a month you can see the whole path of your project.
  4. There are no live calls. Everything is in writing, so you can come back to it, and other members learn from your project.

Frequently asked questions

How is VIP different from Insider?

Insider teaches you to build online stores step by step. VIP is about affiliate: bank and fintech programs, advanced projects and systems of sites, with guidance on your own project. VIP includes the Insider group.

I already have Insider. How do I switch to VIP?

In the billing portal (linked in your welcome e-mail), change your plan to VIP. You only pay the difference for the current period, and the bot gives you the VIP group button right away.

Is it for beginners?

You get the most out of it if you already have a site or a concrete idea you want to grow. If you are starting from zero, begin with the free group and the affiliate guides.

Does VIP promise commissions?

No. Banks and affiliate networks decide who they accept and what they pay for. I show how I do it and what comes out of it, including when the result is poor. Your result depends on your project, work and market.

Can I get a refund?

Yes. Within 14 days of your first payment, e-mail editor@gregciupek.com. You get the full amount back, no questions asked.
