Description
Ecomcrew Premium is finally opening in the next few days! Join the waitlist to get a discount for Black Friday, and get access to a community of like-minded e-commerce sellers. Dave joins Mike in this episode to talk about the Pros and Cons of building a community and content site through affiliate marketing in comparison to a product-based business. With Ecomcrew being open, Dave and I thought it'd be a good time to reflect and compare the differences between a content site and product site. We talk about the pros and cons of building a community, the various platform risks in digital businesses that are unavoidable and our personal experiences with getting hit with a Google Update that ultimately led to less visitors.
