Hey spatel, It is a beginner site. So, domain sharing is not a good idea I think.
I know how painful it is and I’ve faced it many months with my portfolio of websites. Now, I’m a master at it.
I can write a blog post about this topic. It helps a lot of people like us. I can share my research and knowledge here. Hope it helps.
First, when a website is flagged as low-value doesn’t mean it is low value. It just can’t satisfy Google algorithm.
I’ve researched more than 30 websites and here is what I found.
First, you can’t use AI content. Otherwise, it is difficult to find where the problem is.
Go on with the traditional pages - Home page, about, contact, privacy policy, and affiliate disclosure if your are using affiliate networks
Make sure each page is full of content, especially the homepage. If you want you can simply set them up to the latest posts. No problem
Don’t create sub-categories until you got approval
Don’t publish one post in two categories (at least before approval). According to Google, a posts under two categories is not a black hat thing
Make your category page full of posts - No empty spaces. Either 10, 12, or 15 that’s your wish
Better to avoid excerpts to minimise duplicating issues.
Restrict the low value pages for placing ads. Mostly they are privacy policy, about, and contact pages.
Good internal linking between the posts
Must have 2 or 3 categories. Don’t go with more or less before approval
I bet you can’t publish more than 50 posts on your site. But on average, 100 posts is the latest approval mark for Google.
Of course, I can see Google Ad approval sites with only 15 to 20 posts also. But they are very rare.
Quality traffic is a bonus point because Google doesn’t want to waste its earnings and probably ours too.
Hope it helps!
